Night deepened.In the room, silence flowed like water, so quiet that even the clock's ticking seemed unusually clear.Selina didn't know how long she'd been sitting on the sofa.Thinking about David's earlier display of his old madness, Selina realized that David had been restraining himself all al
She pinched her thigh hard. Spurred by the pain, she finally managed to rush toward the tub, her voice shaking: "David, don't scare me."She reached the tub and tried to pull David up.Her fingers touched the ice-cold water, making her shiver.Pure cold water.She took a deep breath and gritted her
David gave a complex look at the clearly frightened Selina, curved his lips in self-mockery, and turned to leave the bathroom.At the doorway, with his back to her, he said softly, "I'll be right outside. Just call if you need anything."He didn't wait for her response before gently closing the bath
The couple had obviously fought, and seriously at that.Especially since Selina had looked ghostly pale when leaving David's room earlier.As soon as Selina had returned to her room, David had come out and asked them to bring her food.The bodyguards had exchanged glances before reluctantly taking o
Selina stared silently at Joseph, clearly not believing his words.Joseph, unnerved by her stare, sighed helplessly: "Don't you consider David's feelings at all, or the baby's?"At his words, Selina's bitter smile took on a self-mocking edge.Yes, even Joseph, who disliked David, thought she was bei
"Besides, Mom hasn't taught me how to be a good mother yet!"Selina smiled bitterly: "I don't want to live my whole life in regret. If I do, I certainly won't be able to be a good mother either."Daniel had to admit his daughter knew exactly how to persuade others."But have you considered that if y
Selina stared in shock as David walked in.He wore a black suit, his dark eyes tinged red, lips pressed thin, jawline tense, radiating an intimidating coldness.With long strides, he reached the doctor in a few steps.The doctor looked him over, glanced at Selina, then finally at the examination pap
"Mr. Wilson, we found her, we found her!" Vincent's urgent voice came through as soon as he answered.David realized what this meant and stood up abruptly.Looking at the lit surgery sign, his momentary excitement plummeted."She's at Lumina, but she's demanding half of S Tech's shares..."Vincent t
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,
