Chapter 1439 Fate
"He asked for a knife."
A knife?
Selena was shocked.
Knives were sharp weapons, both for killing and for guarding.
What was Osvaldo's knife used for?
Lady Laurence looked at Selena and smiled gently, "At first | wasn't sure what he picked up that knife for, until he met you."
"lI understood the meaning of my son taking the knife from the way he looked at you."
"He should have had someone he wanted to guard, though he probably didn't understand it, at that time."
Selena shook his head, "Madam, | didn't know Osvaldo before."

When Osvaldo was twelve years old, she was only five years old.
Never having been to H Country before.
Not to mention meeting Osvaldo.
The only teenage boy she had seen when she was five was the one she had met in the mercenary den.
But that teenager, at the moment, was sitting on the largest dark empire in the Union, cruel and bloodthirsty, an existence that
even the Empire was afraid of.
Lady Laurence smiled, "Selena, do you believe in the existence of destiny in this world?"
"Do you believe that in this world, there is that one man who, even though he may not know of your existence, will still strive to
have you."
"He is destined to meet you, to fall in love with you, and then, to keep you."
Selena was bewildered.
She had been emotionally frustrated for the first time, and this was the moment when she was at her most bewildered, she seem
to understand Lady Laurence's words, yet seemed to not understand.
Lady Laurence met Selena's blank eyes and soothed her with a soft voice, "It doesn't matter if you don't understand now, in the
future, you will understand."
Knowing that Osvaldo was not good at explaining himself, Lady Laurence simply spoke up, "Last night, the reason why Osvaldo did
not appear in front of you at that twas because he had been drugged.”
"My son has tasted a few poisons every year since he was twelve, and after he has contracted them, he then quits, and over the
years, his body has long since developed a strong resistance to them."
"It's hard for ordinary medicine to have affect on him, but last night, there was something special about the medicine he drank that
put him in a perverse coma."
"I'm telling you all this not to make you forgive him."
"It's true that Osvaldo was wrong this time. It doesn't matter how you punish him if you're angry with him."
"But I'm begging you, don't easily say that you're leaving him or don't need him."
This is not only for Osvaldo's sake, but also for Selena's sake.

Selena lowered her eyelashes, and her somewhat pale face showed no emotions.
Lady Lauren looked at her quiet expression and knew that Selena needed salone tto think. She stood up and said, "Rest
well, I'll csee you tomorrow, my dear daughter-in-law."
After Lady Lauren left, Selena sat in front of the table for a long time, and finally took out her phone and made a call.
Black Crow, who was on his way to the Capital University, looked at the flashing screen and frowned.
White Crow saw that his brother wasn't answering the phone, and laughed, "Just answer it, honesty is the best policy."
Selena is a person who never forgets her priorities.
This call can only be to ask about that man.
Thinking of what was found in the blood taken from Osvaldo last night-
A hint of despair flashed through White Crow's eyes.
Black Crow pressed the answer button, and Selena's quiet voice cthrough, "How is he doing?"
Black Crow frowned, displeased, "You're planning to forgive him so soon?"
