Alec craned his neck toward the stairs, where Alexa was descending slowly, wearing a pink and white dress, crystal-studded slippers, her long black hair flowing loose.She seemed surprised to find visitors, her cheeks flushing when she saw Alec."Hello Uncle, Aunt!" Alexa quickly greeted them, face
Alec instinctively shrank back.Alexa glanced at him before turning to Selina: "It's my fault, Selina. If I'm bothering you, I'll leave you alone!"She stood as if to go upstairs.Seeing her apparent distress, Alec's chest burned with anger. He grabbed her hand and turned to Selina with contempt: "S
Selina, whose outfit happened to have black round buttons, deliberately removed one from her sleeve and pretended to search for it anxiously while trying to hide her concern from Nicole.Nicole stroked Selina's head, sighing at her daughter's thoughtfulness.If her daughter hadn't been so well-behav
Alexa blinked innocently: "I just want to be with sister and help however I can."Selina's expression darkened completely.She had no patience for Alexa's games."Stop putting on an act," Selina said irritably. "Don't tell me you've forgotten everything that happened in Auroville!"At the mention of
Selina had deliberately provoked Alexa to expose her true nature.Sure enough, hearing Selina's mockery, Alexa finally snapped, charging at Selina in rage.Like a mad woman, she tried to claw at Selina's face, intent on destroying her beauty.But Selina had anticipated this, swiftly raising her foot
Alexa let out a disappointed "Oh," hesitated, then asked timidly: "Can... can I come see you later?"Selina forced herself to say: "Yes."Only then did Alexa smile, turning to leave with a slight limp.After Alexa had completely disappeared from the white building, Selina called Nestor: "You saw tha
Nestor didn't call out Selina's attempt to play it cool.He knew better than anyone how easily moved she truly was.Even after how deeply he had hurt her before, his persistent pursuit had eventually touched her heart, convincing her to give him another chance.Now she even trusted him completely wi
He was clearly trying to startle her on purpose.Both angry and annoyed, Selina didn't hesitate to open her mouth and give his finger a firm nip.Nestor winced in pain, and with the guard still waiting for an answer, he had to release her."I just tripped on the carpet, I'm fine!" Selina called out
Selina got in the car and signaled the driver to wait.Taking a deep breath, she answered the call.The line connected, but there was only dead silence from the other end, like a vacuum.She said "hello" twice, but still no response.Selina checked her phone - the call was definitely connected."Who
Selina bit her lip, and though reluctant, finally nodded.After breakfast, Thomas arranged for someone to take her to Bruno's hotel.Bruno was just preparing to leave.Seeing Selina, he smiled and gestured for her to join him in his car.Selina got in, expressionless."You must think I'm despicable,
Before the security guard could finish speaking, Selina had already jumped out of the car and started walking toward the landfill without a word.The guards had no choice but to hurry after her."Split up and search by zones," Selina ordered, quickly dividing the area.According to Fiona, she'd pass
Suddenly.A tall figure silently appeared behind Selina, holding a black umbrella over her head to shield her from the rain.Selina's heart jumped, and she turned around, hoping yet afraid to believe.When she saw who was actually standing behind her, her brief smile froze, then crumbled."You'll ge

But Sarah doubted his words."From the beginning, I only rejected the role of fiancée, and you happened to play that role," Vincent explained patiently. "It's like David with Selina initially - it wasn't pure dislike."Sarah suddenly looked up at him.Vincent noticed that while Sarah had ignored his
Selina slept in the bed she once shared with David and had a very long dream.In the dream, she explained to David at the beginning that she hadn't drugged him, and this time, he believed her. Though their marriage was forced by Rachel, while David wasn't particularly warm, he gave her the respect s
The authorities, already hostile toward the three families and intent on their elimination, would never allow the fallen Adams family to rise again.Moreover, if not for Dominic, Selina wouldn't have suffered so much. Nestor's display of capability before the authorities was merely to gain power to
When Selina was about to call Fernando in frustration at his silence, he finally replied: "Nestor said he'd survive no matter what, and absolutely wouldn't give me any chance with you."Even through the computer screen, Selina could sense Fernando's resentment."When did he contact you?" Selina aske
