As if in an instant, the car stopped at the Robinsons' entrance.Nestor hadn't had enough of kissing her, but Selina pushed him away firmly, very different from her earlier token resistance.Nestor understood when to stop.Though reluctant, he released Selina.As they parted, a glistening thread con
Joseph looked at her dress, then down at his suit, wondering if he'd lost his sense of temperature.Selina wore less than him, yet felt hot when he felt comfortable.Fearing more questions, Selina smiled at him, speaking quickly: "Weren't you heading out? Don't let me keep you - I have things to do,
Selina had just finished showering when she received a call from the main building.As soon as she connected, Nicole's eager voice came through: "Selina, I hear your grandfather arranged a blind date for you?"Her voice didn't sound particularly happy, even carrying a hint of complaint.The old man
When she and Nicole arrived at the police station, the lawyer was already waiting for them."Madam, Miss!" The impeccably dressed Theo greeted Nicole and Selina, walking into the station with them.Selina briefly told Theo what she'd learned from the police.The night before, Joseph had been drinkin
As Selina was finally able to properly look at Nestor after he'd escorted her to a private booth on the second floor."Did you come specifically to find me?" Selina asked with mixed feelings.Nestor leaned forward, his dark eyes fixed intently on her, lips curving slightly: "Of course it was for you
Nestor stared at her face, then after a long silence, his lips curved upward."What's going on in that little head of yours?" He gently flicked her forehead. "I want to marry you because of you, not because of the Robinsons or Adams."He wanted to marry her simply because she was Selina.He'd antici
Through the window, Selina looked where he pointed, seeing a familiar tall figure leaning against a car about 800 meters from the bar.When the woman appeared, he quickly went to meet her.The woman ignored him, striding forward while he patiently followed, reaching for her hand.She avoided his tou
Pushing against Nestor's chest, Selina stepped away."What else do you know?" Selina asked quietly.She hadn't wanted Nestor involved in Robinson affairs, but he'd forced his way in.Since she couldn't refuse him, she might as well let him help.Hearing Selina's resignation, Nestor's lips curved int
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
Vincent confirmed what the investigation team had discovered.The investigation revealed that Nestor had found Evan's secret facility beneath the Auroville Research Institute. In his attempt to stop Evan's plot, they ended up in a brutal fight to the death.Evan, refusing to accept defeat at Nestor'
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
