Nestor's dark eyes fixed unblinkingly on Selina as he said obscurely: "You think saying that will make me overlook what just happened?"Selina shrank her neck: "What do you want?"Nestor's fingers traced from her earlobe to the back of her neck, gently caressing."You don't want to marry me?" he low
Without another glance at Selina, he straightened up and turned decisively toward the door.Watching his retreating figure, Selina felt an inexplicable panic, instinctively reaching out to stop him.The words died on her lips before she could speak them.Nestor left without looking back, quietly clo
Initially uninterested, Selina softened at seeing Alexa's hopeful eyes and asked to see the gift.Alexa handed Selina an ordinary phone."This is your gift?" Selina looked at the unremarkable phone in confusion.Alexa, like a student awaiting praise, said: "Yes, and it talks!"She eagerly opened the
She trusted her father would investigate this thoroughly."Where's Number Three? Have him treat my wound," Selina asked casually as guards brought the medical kit.The guards exchanged glances before one said: "Number Three hasn't returned since last night. We don't know if something happened."Thou
Selina stared at her phone in disbelief, her mind unwillingly conjuring inappropriate scenarios.A man, a woman.What situation would leave Nestor so exhausted he couldn't get up by noon?Or more precisely, couldn't get out of bed?The answer seemed obvious.Selina tried to resist such thoughts, but
The guard looked at Selina: "Miss, shall we go in?"Selina stood at the entrance, staring at the natural wood door as if trying to burn a hole through it."Miss?" Seeing her lost in thought, the guard reminded her softly before discretely stepping back.Selina finally steeled herself and pressed the
Selina stared expressionlessly at the leg.It was long, and despite being covered in dense hair, the muscle definition and contours were clearly visible.Not Nestor!Though much time had passed, Selina remembered David's legs.His were also long and showed signs of working out, but not as exaggerate
Vaguely, he recalled someone throwing themselves at him after he entered.Carrying a woman's unique fragrance.Under the influence of alcohol, he'd lost resistance to the woman's advances.Looking with disgust at the shrewish Isabella, Adrian's head throbbed, whether from the hangover or anger was u
Startled by the unexpected silhouette in the darkness, Selina jumped, instinctively curling into a ball."It's me!" David quickly said, realizing he had scared her.Hearing his familiar voice, Selina finally let out her held breath.The next second, she pushed away David's hand as he reached out to
As for David, Selina was so angry she refused to even mention him."How did things go with William and Grandfather?" Selina asked Thomas in a low voice, noticing Daniel and Nicole seemed relaxed.Thomas, wanting to make amends, told her everything.Bruno had taken in Dominic's remaining men and disc
Selina didn't give Bruno any chance.After hanging up on Bruno, she called Olivia directly to tell her they'd be taking the earliest flight back home.Before Olivia could even understand what was happening, she found herself on the flight home with Selina.Even after they landed and got into Ashley'
Pretending he had never escaped.Thomas's smooth handling of the Meracia situation was also thanks to the information David provided."Why did you keep this from me?" Selina's fingertips felt ice cold, struck by an inexplicable feeling of betrayal.She alone had been kept in the dark, worrying about
After tossing and turning, Selina couldn't fall back asleep. After calculating the time difference, she decided to call Thomas.Thomas had just finished dealing with William's matter when he saw Selina's call. Checking the time in Japan, his expression changed slightly as he quickly answered."Selin
Worried he wouldn't believe her, she added, "You can verify right now who really controls S Tech Group."Bruno hesitated before hanging up to verify Selina's claims.He had originally planned to stay by Selina's side as David, hoping she would gradually fall for him.He believed that with enough tim
He was much more cautious now, choosing his words carefully.Selina took a deep breath, her bottom lip turning white from biting it, and finally steeled herself."Didn't you say before that you'd fed David to the fish?" she said through gritted teeth. "Now you're trying to use him to threaten me? Do
The implication was clear - if they protected Selina well, he'd overlook their failure with Bruno. If not, their punishment would be even worse.The guards quickly agreed.Watching Joseph stride away urgently, Selina had no choice but to return to the hotel under the guards' watchful eyes.She paced
Seeing Selina on the verge of losing control, Joseph quickly grabbed her arm. "Selina, stay calm. Now that we have him, unless he wants to die..."Before he could finish, Bruno suddenly broke free from his captors and made a dash for the balcony.No one expected Bruno to make such a desperate move,
