Revenge On Love Rats After Rebirth by Olivia Marsh

Chapter 974 Hazy Memory "I'll personally take her there,” Osvaldo said.

Leia was shocked. Given Osvaldo's extreme paranoia, how could he actually allow Selena to meet a man who coveted her? He even wanted to personally escort Selena there.

Unless... Selena’s reason for meeting Christ was really as compelling as she said. It was enough to make Osvaldo back down and even choose to condone it.

Leia immediately turned to find Christ's phone number.

A slender hand picked up the vibrating phone on the table. The man's handsome face showed no surprise as he looked at the flashing number on the screen.

Christ held the phone and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at the capital outside for a moment before pressing the answer button.

A cold voice of a young girl came through the speaker, "Mr. Poole, are you free tonight?" Christ's lips curled up. "Miss Turner wants to have tea with me?" Selena's voice was warm and elegant. "I don't know if | have the honor." Christ's eyes darkened. "Of course, but the condition is that you can't bring him along!" Selena paused for a moment before her tone wavered slightly. "I can't hurt him for anyone.” Christ sneered and hung up the phone.

Then he lowered his eyes and called Osvaldo.

An hour later, Selena put on her coat and walked out of the villa with her long hair loose. When she stepped out of the gate, she suddenly stopped in her tracks.

Osvaldo leaned against the car door with his black hair and eyes, cold white skin, and exquisite features that were too distinct in the dusk.

The man's deep gaze quietly fell on her, and he walked over and reached out to touch her hair.

Selena came to her senses and tried to explain, "I..." Although she didn't know much about love, she was the most responsible and empathetic girl. When she refused Christ earlier, she didn't know that Osvaldo already knew about it. She just didn't want to hurt him in any way.

It was only now that Selena realized that she was the only one who had left the house. Leia didn't follow her.

Osvaldo's translucent fingertips brushed her eyes, and his eyes looked at her with bone-deep tenderness and compassion.

"Selena, don't be afraid." Selena's curled eyelashes trembled uncontrollably.

Osvaldo took her cold hand, opened the car door, and led her to the passenger seat.

Then, he drove the car and took her away from the villa.

A black sports car drove smoothly on the road, and Selena held her chin with her delicate white hands, looking at the unfamiliar scenery outside the window with bustling traffic and colorful lights. Suddenly, she said, "I've been to the capital before.” Osvaldo's eyes became even darker, but he didn't say anything. A layer of heart-wrenching emotion seemed to be shrouded between his delicate eyes as he listened quietly to her.

Christ mistook Selena, who grew up in the capital, for someone from a faraway city. It was clear that there was a problem.

"But | can't remember anything..." Selena's voice was muffled, and she seemed particularly concerned and uncomfortable about her memory loss.

She raised her hand and pressed her forehead with restraint. It seemed that not only Selena's memory was missing, but there was also a deeply buried unforgettable past, which made her feel an unprecedented sense of oppression and loss of control whenever she touched upon it.

Selena felt uncomfortable, but more than that, she felt lost.

Her memories from childhood to adulthood were complete and there was no sudden appearance of people like Christ. Then why did she still feel this empty and uncomfortable feeling? It was even more uncomfortable than the feeling she had during the fragrance competition when something suddenly appeared.

Was it something related to the person who "revived" her? Selena's fingers were so pale that they were frightening. She lowered her eyes and began to carefully recall all her past experiences from childhood.

After she grew up and became sensible, she would definitely notice if someone had tampered with her memories.

The only opportunity to do so was before she grew up.

Her childhood memories seemed complete as well.

Father, mother, Stanley, and...

Wait! Selena suddenly noticed a blurry memory node. She suddenly froze, and her eyes widened in an instant.

It felt like she had been searching for it for a long time, and finally, in a blank space, she caught a glimpse of a long-hidden secret.

Selena even broke out in a cold sweat all over.

She got lost once when she was a child! She was abducted by a notorious mercenary group! She was still in the mercenary's lair when she met a boy who was also abducted. That boy was even persuaded by her and might have "been single all life".

She had never thought about it before, but now that Selena’s amnesia reminded her, she seemed to remember something and wanted to investigate a question... why did she get lost when she was young? Within the Riddle family, with such a close circle of defense and protection, even if all the mercenaries in the world rushed in, and with the Riddle family's secretly malicious people, it would not be possible to steal her away from under her father and mother's noses.

So why did she run out alone? ... she didn't remember.

No matter how Selena thought, she couldn't remember this.

She squeezed her fingers with some pain, forcing herself to calm down and analyze.

If it was impossible for her to be stolen, then there was only one other possibility.

She ran away by herself.

But why did she run away? Obviously, at that time, she was not even five years old and was so weak that walking was difficult. In that situation, why did she still sneak out alone, hiding from her father, mother, and everyone? It seemed like an absurd guess that was impossible.

But Selena's intuition told her that compared to being stolen, her second guess was correct.

She ran away by herself, alone, evading all the protection layers, even deliberately avoiding her most trusted father and mother, and ran out of her own home... and then was abducted by mercenaries.

Afterwards, she was found and completely forgot about the incident.

What was she looking for, paying such a high price? She didn’t remember.

A hint of suppressed pain surged in Selena's eyes, and she closed them.

Her father and mother must have known why she had run away, but for so many years, they had never mentioned it, even specifically washing away her memory of that event, which meant... they wouldn't tell her.

Stanley had just arrived by her side at that time-- Selena suddenly opened her eyes.

Why was Stanley arranged to be by her side from an early age? Her father said it was because she was an only child and they were afraid she would be lonely, so they found Stanley to accompany her.

Did that mean that before Stanley, she had a companion?
