Chapter 684 Is Selena a fefatale? Diana smiled as she met the gaze of Osvaldo's deep and unfathomable eyes, feeling a sudden flutter of fear in her heart. "If Rachel has offended you, I'll be the one to teach my sister a lesson. | cto the hotel and heard snoise upstairs, so | went up and saw this Sacred Pearl..." Osvaldo's eyes were inscrutable as he looked away from her face.
Diana packed up the item and said solemnly, "The appearance of Sacred Pearl in H Country is not a trivial matter. | must take it back to the research institute immediately. Goodbye!" After that, she smiled at Osvaldo and walked out of the room.
Osvaldo's assistant behind him spoke up, "Miss Barrett, you have saved our young master. If you need any help from the Anderson family in the future, don't hesitate to ask.” Diana turned her head and looked at Osvaldo, her eyes full of love and infatuation. "Okay." Downstairs.
Selena only realized her knees were hurting after she sat down. In her panic, she had run too fast and had been too preoccupied with escaping, so she hadn't noticed before. Now that she cto her senses, the pain returned as well.
She lifted her cotton skirt and saw blood seeping through the white gauze.
She winced in pain and looked around, but couldn't find a first aid kit or any bandages, nor her phone. It seemed she could only wait for Osvaldo to cback.
Then Selena remembered that the Sacred Pearl was still upstairs.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe had to go and retrieve it.
If Sacred Pearl fell into the hands of someone with ill intentions, it could cause trouble. Selena propped herself up against the wall and slowly made her way to the door, opening it.
A group of bodyguards outside the door collectively looked up.
Selena felt a hint of dissatisfaction and condemnation from these scrutinizing gazes.
Osvaldo's recent transformation was noticed by everyone.
Their master cherished this woman so much, but she repeatedly ignored his sincerity, especially this time, which almost caused him to be injured or killed.
It is reasonable for them to be dissatisfied with her.
Selena tilted her head slightly and pursed her beautiful red lips.
Although dissatisfied, no one dared to disrespect this lady in public, and the person standing at the forefront stepped forward and asked, "Madam, do you have any orders?" Selena said softly, "l want to go upstairs, no need to follow me." However, the person in front of her stopped her with a hand, "Sorry, Madam, the young master ordered that you cannot go out before he comes back. If you have any needs, you can tell us." Selena's brow slightly furrowed.
If people knew that she had closed Sacred Pearl, her identity might not be hidden anymore.
The sname, the sappearance, and the sability... Once those people noticed her, even with her death certificate, she would probably not be able to withstand the swarm-like assassinations.
At that time, she might not be able to return alive.
She smiled faintly, her gaze turned cold, "I feel stuffy, | just want to go upstairs and blow sair. You can watchoutside the door, and | will cout soon." The person speaking frowned, looking at her dissatisfiedly, and said in a deep voice, "Madam, please understand the young master. You may not know that those people used you as bait this time, and the real target was the young master. He almost got hurt just now, and not all of those people have been caught yet. It is dangerous at this time, so please be patient!" Selena's gaze also sank down.
Although this person is doing it for Osvaldo's sake, their vision is shallow and inflexible.
Anyway, since they have already decided that she is just a pretty face and nothing else, she naturally doesn't mind and will carry on with her arrogant reputation.
Selena lifted her chin, with arrogance and indulgence written all over her face. "If | insist on going up, what can you do about it?" After speaking, she pushed him away heavily and walked straight towards the rooftop.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"You-" Everyone glared at Selena in anger, but they didn't dare to touch her.
At this stalemate, a stunning and powerful-looking woman walked out from the side with her people. Seeing the situation, she frowned slightly and asked, "What's going on?" Selena looked at the woman, who had a face that was somewhat similar to Rachel's, and menacingly narrowed her eyes.
The people who were trying to stop Selena immediately bowed when they saw the woman and respectfully called out, "Miss Barrett." Although it had only been a short while, the incident of Diana closing the Sacred Pearl and saving Osvaldo had almost spread to everyone below.
At this moment, everyone's eyes were filled with admiration and gratitude as they looked at this woman.
Diana's gaze swept over Selena indifferently, as if she were looking at a bunch of stray cats and dogs, showing no interest at all.
She smiled, brushed her hair away from her ear, and spoke as if she were the hostess herself. "Maxwell, everyone is busy catching those assassins, and the crisis is not yet completely resolved. Why are you causing trouble here instead of protecting the young master properly?" Maxwell looked at Selena resentfully and said coldly, "You're right. It's our fault for not being sensible and making a fool of ourselves in front of you." Selena's face was pale, as if she didn't understand the finger-pointing and cursing between the two.
Diana glanced lightly at Selena, "Since you know you're wrong, then fulfill your duty well. If you don't understand the rules, you might as well step down and give way. Don't you think so?" The people behind Diana all laughed, their laughter filled with mockery.
One of the women covered her mouth and giggled, "That's right. People without ability, who insist on occupying things that don't belong to them, usually won't have a good ending..." Maxwell vaguely felt that something was wrong and lowered his head, "Miss Barrett is right.” Diana disdainfully glanced at Selena, "Good that you know." After speaking, Diana led her entourage towards the elevator.
Selena hung her long eyelashes, smiled, spoke up, her pleasant voice clear and cold, "Stop right there!" Diana halted her steps, then turned slightly, her smile cold and dangerous as she looked at Selena, "Are you talking to me?" Selena smiled, slowly walking forward.
Maxwell frowned, "Madam, please behave yourself and don't cause any more trouble!" Selena coldly looked at him, "Someone who can't even recognize their own master is not qualified to stay by his side! And someone who helps outsiders and turns against their master is even more guilty!" Maxwell was horrified.
Dangerous intent grew stronger in Diana's eyes.
Selena slowly walked up to Diana, in front of everyone's contemptuous, doubtful, and scrutinizing gaze. Then she laughed coldly
