Chapter 861 Secret! After Selena confirmed that there was nothing wrong with her eyes, she glanced coldly at Leah and walked out.
Leah stared at herself in the mirror, feeling devastated. Just as Selena was about to leave the restroom, Leah suddenly laughed coldly and said, "Do you think | would appear in the international perfume competition if | didn't have confidence?" Selena paused for a moment and turned to look at Leah, her eyes filled with a hint of coldness.
Leah suddenly snapped out of her brief breakdown and regained her gentle and tender manner. Except for her pale complexion, there was no trace of her twisted and cold appearance just a moment ago.
Turning around, Leah walked towards Selena with a strange smile on her face. "I'm telling you, | will definitely win the championship at this year's international perfume competition!" Selena raised an eyebrow and said with a cold smile, "Are you completely crazy and daydreaming?" Leah stared at Selena's eyes and said and firmly, "No! The champion of the international perfume competition must be me, and only me!" Selena's eyes became deep, and she curved her lips into a cold smile. "I heard that Isabel is now locked up in a mental hospital, almost crazy. Or do you want to go in and accompany her now?" Leah's face twisted briefly with terror, but she smiled arrogantly again. "Selena, you're afraid..." Selena squinted her eyes slightly.

You know better than anyone else how vicious | can be. If it was Isabel or someone else, there might be room for exaggeration, but when it comes to me, Leah, you can't help but take me seriously." Selena snorted, "You're only worth so much now." Selena didn't care about Leah herself, but she was concerned about the support behind Leah. What kind of threat could make this woman so certain that Selena would give up the championship of the international perfume competition to her? Although Selena didn't pay much attention, she remembered that Leah had handed in a bottle of white perfume, just like her own. This was definitely not a coincidence.
The perfumes in the perfume competition had no names or labels to prevent judges from being biased towards cheaters. Except for the perfumer, no one knew who the owner of the perfume was.
It was clear what the other party was up to.
Leah was so angry that her face turned pale, and she hated Selena's contemptuous and cold attitude so much that she gritted her teeth. After a moment, she suddenly laughed strangely again.
Leah looked straight at Selena, smiled, and asked in a gentle yet eerie voice, "Selena, do you really think that your sudden change in personality after the canceled wedding was just a coincidence?" Selena paused in her action of fiddling with her bracelet, looked up suddenly, and her indifferent expression disappeared in an instant. Her dark eyes rolled with icy anger and frightening chill as she stared at Leah, asking in a bone-chilling voice, "What did you say?" As Leah faced the sudden darkness in Selena's eyes, she shuddered all over, her smile freezing in an instant. But along with the fear, Leah also saw hope in being able to trample Selena underfoot! In truth, Leah did not understand the true meaning behind the words she had spoken. It was just that someone had told her that if she said these words to Selena, she would get what she wanted. And obviously, the other person knew the meaning behind these words, what exactly had happened to Selena after the failed wedding banquet at the Walson's residence.
Leah was both happy and resentful. She was glad that she had once again gained the secret that could threaten Selena. But she resented why Selena had changed! If Selena hadn't changed and was still the weak, kind, and foolish person, Leah would never have ended up where she was today! Just as Leah was feeling pleased with herself, she suddenly felt a cold hand clamp down on her neck. The hand was slender and delicate, enough to make anyone want to take good care of it. But the temperature of that hand was so cold that it made Leah shiver.
Selena squeezed her windpipe tightly and pressed down hard. "Tell me everything you know, or I'll kill you!" she threatened.
Leah's breathing almost stopped at that moment, her face turning a terrifying white. She stared at Selena with wide eyes and a twisted smile on her face, mouthing, "No..." She had finally had the chance to regain everything, and even if she had to die, Leah would not give up this opportunity.
Leah struggled and shouted hoarsely, "If you want to know the truth... give me the championship!" Selena's eyes grew colder and colder, and her gaze was bone-chilling.
Leah laughed in a manic way, like a dying beast, with a look of desperation in her eyes. "Selena, if you miss the clues | have here, you will regret it for the rest of your life!" "Give me the championship, and I'll tell you everything you want to know!" "It's just the champion of a fragrance competition. What does it matter compared to your glamorous life? So why wouldn't you let it go?" Selena's slender fingers tightened, and the darkness in her eyes became more chilling.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe reason for her sudden change in personality was because she had died and been reborn in the body of Selena in Creephia. And now, Leah had told her that her rebirth was not accidental...
How could someone bring a dead person back to life? If Leah was telling the truth, the only thing that could be confirmed was that the person who "revived" her had no ill intentions towards her. After all, Miss Riddle was truly dead.
To bring a dead person back to life and give them a new life without asking for anything in return, how could that person have any malicious intentions? Selena even felt a hint of tenderness.
But who was that person? Stanley? No - Selena subconsciously denied it. Stanley had grown up with her since childhood. There was no reason why she wouldn't know what he knew. And if Stanley had done it, he wouldn't have stayed away from her for so long.
Could it be Callum? That was impossible... because it was the real Selena who disappeared.
Then who else would help her so unreservedly? Even though Selena didn't know the truth, she knew that bringing a dead person back to life was a heaven- defying act, and there would be a huge price to pay afterwards.
To pay such a huge price to bring her back to life... yet the person who did it had not shown any trace so far...
Who could it be? Suddenly, Selena felt cold.
It wasn't until this moment that she realized that there seemed to be a great secret hidden behind her smooth sailing life of over ten years.
