Chapter 954 Fiancé Moreover, they could also shift the blame openly to Union University.
A flicker of darkness flashed in Freddie's eyes.
Henry pondered for a long time but couldn't find any loopholes. He said in a deep voice, "I promise you." Selena smiled, turned around, and walked out of the conference room with Leia and Lydia, ignoring everyone else.
On the way to Capital University, Leia couldn't contain her doubts anymore and asked, "Madam, why did you...?" The last condition seems too favorable to the other side.
Selena lay in the back seat with a cold breath. When she heard this, she opened her eyes and smiled, "Many times, the simpler the request seems, the more one can gain from it." "And those who seem to have the upper hand often end up with nothing." Freddie and Henry understood this principle, but they couldn't resist the temptation of benefits.
Or perhaps, they both underestimated her.
If the person who made this request was Osvaldo, even the most foolish person would know not to agree to it.
In the end... they underestimated her! Selena looked down at her slender fingers, thinking of the "Sacred Pearl" that Diana had taken from her. Her expression turned ice-cold. "You said last time that Diana owed Young Master a life-saving favor, which refers to the incident with the ‘Sacred Pearl?" Leia recalled the scene where Diana flaunted her power and privilege in front of Selena by using this incident. She was full of anger and said, "Yes, if it weren't for her saving Young Master, | would have killed that shameless woman long ago!" Diana had been using this identity as a "life-saving benefactor” to act wantonly in Capital, not only taking many resources that didn't belong to her but also ruining several mechanics who stood in her way.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIn just a few months, there were complaints and grievances in the mechanical field of Capital, and many people secretly hated Diana to the bone.
But because of her status, they had to swallow their anger.
Because of this, Osvaldo even recruited some black hands.
Leia was so angry when she mentioned Diana that she couldn't help but recount everything that Diana had done to Selena one by one.
After listening to it, Selena's already cold eyes became even colder, and she coldly smiled, "Very good!" Leia shuddered at Selena's tone, even when Leah took away "Heartfelt" before, Selena's tone wasn't this cold.
Leia's heart was filled with anxiety. She looked cautiously at Selena and stuttered, "Miss, please don't be angry. | will tell the young master later that the shameless woman bullied you. He will help you get justice..." Selena closed her eyes again and said, "Go to the laboratory.” Leia dared not speak any further and nervously accompanied Selena to the capital university. Perhaps because Diana really provoked Selena, she seemed melancholy the entire afternoon and was not in the mood to conduct experiments.
As the evening approached, a light rain began to fall again. Leia put a towel on Selena's head and followed behind her towards the school gate. It was almost the end of the year, and most of the students were on vacation, so there were not many people on campus. In addition, it was getting late, so the entire picturesque garden appeared deserted.
A person carrying an umbrella was walking towards them. The person was tall and slender, as if he had walked out of a painting.
He wore a black robe embroidered with golden flowers, and the hem of his sleeves and robe fluttered in the wind.
Although he was some distance away, his features were not very clear, but his graceful and charming demeanor was so vivid.
Leia was surprised when she saw him, but quickly realized her own reaction and was afraid of attracting Selena’s attention. She quickly covered her mouth with her hand to suppress the scream that was about to escape her throat.
She looked at the man who was gradually approaching, and then looked cautiously at Selena. Seeing that Selena had not noticed him, she breathed a sigh of relief. But in the next moment, she frowned fiercely.
Selena was in a bad mood today and was lost in thought with her eyes lowered, so she naturally had no interest in paying attention to anyone else.
Leia watched as the two people approached each other and her heart was beating so fast that it almost jumped out of her chest.
However, Selena kept her head down the whole time, and the man seemed to have no intention of calling out to her.
Leia relaxed her tense nerves slightly, thinking that the two were about to pass each other like strangers. But in the next second, Selena suddenly stumbled and her slender body fell to one side with a squeak of her shoe heel stepping into empty space.
Leia exclaimed and was about to go forward to help her.
But a meticulously carved hand beat her to it and quickly grabbed Selena's shoulder, helping her regain her balance.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSelena was already in a bad mood and nearly stumbled, which only made her more frustrated.
Just then, a gentle sigh sounded in her ear, "Be careful on the slippery road in the rain." Selena looked up and was stunned.
Through the misty rain, she saw a beautiful face unexpectedly appearing before her.
The man's lips curved into a subtle smile, and his eyes were upturned, with a touch of vermilion red between his brows, exuding tenderness and charm.
Meeting such a man in this misty ancient garden made her almost think she had walked into the wrong time and space.
However, Selena's daze only lasted for a second. The next second, she pushed his hand away and said politely, "Thank you." Upon hearing Selena's voice, the man's eyes softened as he replied, "Mm." Selena glanced at Leia, who was a bit frightened, and said, "Let's go." Then she led the way outside.
Leia guarded Selena and watched the man warily as they walked away.
The man stood still for a long time, staring at the direction Selena had left until her figure completely disappeared from view.
Only then did he lower his eyelashes, still in a daze.
Cameron, who had walked up behind him at some point, said softly, "If you feel it's too difficult, you don't have to agree..." Alfie finally turned his gaze away and walked back toward the campus, saying, "Let's go." Cameron looked at Alfie's back and pursed his lips. "Lady Selena is particularly vengeful against evil. If you offend her, she may never forgive you." Alfie's eyes darkened slightly, and he lowered his gaze with a touch of disappointment.
"Fiancée" is a very dreamy and strange word, especially since he was told by his family from a young age that he was born with his own fiancée, like a cursed sweet dream.
If the Turner family had a daughter, she would have to marry him when she grew up.
If the Turner family had no daughter, he was destined to be alone for the rest of his life.
