Selina's abrupt departure following her disrespectful words had provoked Cecilia greatly.
Having lost all energy in her legs, Cecilia landed heavily on the sofa.
Matthew said anxiously, "Madam, please rest here. I'll go after Selina." Cecilia could only nod feebly and say, "I'm sorry for troubling you, Matthew." SEARCH The Find Nøvelwebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.
Matthew was gone by the tCecilia had finished speaking.
"Selina!" Matthew called out.
At this moment, she was already a distance away and moving faster all the time. Her footsteps did not slow at the sound of his voice.
All of a sudden, Matthew felt a wave of dizziness overchim.
He had no choice but to stop moving and lean momentarily against the wall. A glance downwards revealed that his sleeve was stained with blood.
Matthew frowned.
Perhaps he had been too hasty when he'd picked Selina up in the condominium, and had reopened the wound.
By the the had regained his balance, Selina was nowhere to be seen.
Walking on an empty street, Lothar scanned his surroundings for Selina.
He had received a phone call from Reid when he'd just been about to go to bed.
His benefactor had gone on a short rant before ordering him to go to a certain area and keep an eye out for Selina. He wanted Lothar to strike up a conversation with Selina and get closer to her. The problem was that Reid himself hadn't known Selina's exact location.
Lothar felt helpless. How would he be able to find Selina on the streets in the middle of the night? On the other hand, he couldn't reject Reid either.
Reid was the one who had been providing Lothar with financial support, and the one whom he would have to rely on if he wanted to becan idol in future.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBesides Reid, there had been other people who had been willing to give Lothar opportunities.
However, their conditions would have required him to go against his principles or break the law.
Reid's request was simple in comparison.
He just wanted Lothar to get close to Selina and befriend her.
Lothar looked around despairingly. As expected, Selina was nowhere to be seen.
At that particular moment, Selina had started to feel tired from all the running she had been doing.
She turned around and realized that she had lost Matthew.
She let out a sigh of relief.
She stopped running and walked slowly.
As she walked, she nearly stumbled over a pebble.
She suddenly felt rage enveloping her.
She pointed at the pebble and shouted, "You f*cking pebble. Why are you bullying me? It's fine for my mom to nagbecause she gave birth toand raised me. What right do you have to bully me?" After that, she kicked the pebble hard.
She vented all of her anger by using all of the energy she could muster. As a result, the pebble was sent flying. Lothar had just been wandering in the direction that Selina happened to be standing. Unfortunately for him, the pebble hit him squarely on the nose.
What an unexpected incident.
Lothar touched his nose and exclaimed in surprise and pain.
It was very painful.
Selina was stunned.
She had simply kicked a pebble. She definitely hadn't expected it to hit someone's face.
She ran over and asked, "Are you all right?" "I'm fine," Lothar said, only to pause incredulously when he noticed who the person in front of him was. He pointed at Selina and said, "Hey, it's you!" Selina was stunned as well. She asked, "Aren't you that guy with the surnCowell?" "Lothar Cowell," Lothar said.
"Oh, that's right! Lothar Cowell!" "Ah, you're bleeding!" Selina suddenly pointed at Lothar's forehead and said.
Lothar did not say anything.
They went to a nearby clinic immediately.
The nurse chatted with Lothar while cleaning the wound for Lothar, "So many handsguys just happened to drop by today. What a coincidence." "Madam, thank you for the compliment," Lothar said sheepishly.
The nurse's facial expression suddenly changed.
She shouted, "Did you just callMadam? I'm not that much older than you!" The nurse did look older than her actual age.
Lothar was speechless.
Selina found the situation oddly funny. This was the first tin this entire devastating night that she'd felt like laughing.
Classic Lothar, he truly did not know how to speak appropriately in social situations.
Another nurse said casually, urse sa "Anyway, the man who cin just now had both the looks and the body to go with it. Unfortunately, it seems that he had something urgent to do. He left in a hurry after getting his arm bandaged." "That's right," the elder nurse said. She continued, "I'm guessing that his wound will reopen later. I told him that it would be better to treat it properly, but he still left in a hurry." After helping Lothar to clean the wound, the nurse said that there might be a risk of inflammation. She suggested that Lothar be put on an anti-inflammatory IV drip. Lothar agreed immediately.
Selina sat beside Lothar while he was being treated.
Given that she was the one who had injured him, her conscience wouldn't allow her to leave before he'd been treated properly.
"It's so late at night now. What were you doing on the street?" Selina asked casually.
Lothar becnervous.
He thought of what Reid had told him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHowever, he was not good at lying. He stammered, "My mom founda match and wantsto be with her even if I have no feelings for her. So, I cout because I was upset." "What?" Selina's eyes opened wide.
After starting the story, Lothar felt more at ease He didn't stammer anymore. He continued, "My mam says that she's a nice person, and En. she's been forcingto meet the girl regardless of my feelings, Even so, how could a relationship be forced?" Selina empathized with his words. Touched, she asked, "Did your mum praise the woman while berating you at the stime? Perhaps she may even have told you that you wouldn't find a better match anywhere else!" Lothar nodded passionately and said, "That's right! That's exactly how it is!" "Oh my God!" Selina exclaimed. She continued, "We're going through a very similar situation! What a coincidence!" "Oh, really?" Lothar asked, looking surprised.
Selina nodded sadly.
"What a coincidence indeed!" Lothar said.
He felt guilty when he said the words.
He knew that it was not a coincidence at all. It was all simply a part of Reid's plan.
"Looks like we have much in common," Selina said. She continued, "Let's be friends." Lothar nodded and said, "Okay, let's be friends." After that, Lothar hesitated and said, "Shall we exchange numbers?" "Sure," Selina said casually.
After taking out her mobile phone, she took a glance at Lothar warily and said, "Was this all just part of a plan to woo me? I know I can ben quite attractive. Selina had only wanted to befriend Lothar because they were in similar situations. However, if Lothar had any other intentions, Selina did not want to take the risk. Lothar said sincerely, "Are you that attractive? I'd rate you as average at best." This was what Reid wanted him to say. In fact, he felt that Selina was truly beautiful.
Selina was speechless.
She cleared her throat.
Lothar continued, "Furthermore, you're a few years older than me." Selina did not know what to say.
She knocked on Lothar's head and said, "You really don't know how to speak appropriately, do you?"
Lothar was a little embarrassed. He e said, "Yeah, you're right. I have no other intentions in getting your phone number, besides wanting to check on that dog." Speaking of Rocky, Selina suddenly remembered that she had left Rocky in the condominium. She'd run out of the condominium on an impulse.
After thinking for a moment, Selina felt that Rocky should be fine because it had fallen asleep before she'd left the condominium..
"Okay," Selina agreed to give Lothar her phone number.
She didn't have many friends. Therefore, it would be good to have another friend.
"Actually, I'm very upset right now," Selina said all of a sudden. She continued, "I'm so upset that I wish I could just get hit by a car." X
