Be Spoiled After Rebirth (Selena and Osvaldo)
Chapter 574 Selena's BrotherAs expected, after hearing Selena's words, Christ's eyes grew even colder.
Isabel panicked, pulling at Christ's sleeve and shaking her head while trembling, "Brother, you have to believe me. | didn't do it. | was just too angry and scared..." Christ stared at her with a cold gaze and said nothing.
Isabel's face turned pale and she looked extremely miserable with the mixture of burn marks on her face and the blood on her neck.
She collapsed to the ground, crying pitifully, "Brother, | really don't know her, I don't know how | offended her..." "My leg is disabled, and you don't care about me. She hitand even wanted to kill me, but you indulged her..." Isabel cried so hard that her whole body was shaking, "I'm just too scared, I'm afraid of pain, afraid of death, and even afraid that you won't want me..." She looked up with innocent eyes full of tears, like a lonely and helpless little animal, choking and asking, "Brother, you said you would protectfor a lifetime..." After all, Isabel had been Christ's family member for so many years, and seeing her covered in injuries made his icy heart soften a bit.
"Get her smedicine!" he ordered.
Two maids cforward, one to find medicine and the other to help Isabel up.
Selena sneered.
Christ was a notable figure, but his judgement seemed to be flawed as he indulged a snake and a scorpion like her.
Selena struggled a few times, but failed to break free. She coldly ordered, "Let go!" Christ met her eyes full of coldness and disgust, frowned, and spoke to Isabel, "Apologize!" Isabel had just barely managed to stand up straight, but upon hearing his words, her vision blacked out and a burning hatred rose in her heart.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtObviously, she was the one who was hurt in the end, and Selena didn't even lose a single hair. Yet she was being asked to apologize to Selena? Isabel wished she could tear Selena apart! But she had just managed to soothe Christ, so she didn't dare to upset him again. She swallowed her frustration and bowed down to Selena, apologizing meekly, "I'm sorry, Miss. It was all my fault. | shouldn't have hurt you. Don't blmy brother..." Selena couldn't be bothered to look at her fake appearance and looked away.
Unable to break free from Christ's grip, Selena grew angry and suddenly looked up at Osvaldo, speaking in a soft and sweet voice, "Brother, there are bad people trying to kidnap me. Please cand save me..." Luke, who had rushed over with his men, just arrived at the door and heard Selena's sweet "brother." His lips twitched in displeasure.
He stared at Selena and thought to himself, "You loves ." But he was grateful that Selena was quick-witted.
Luke took a deep breath as he surveyed the tense atmosphere in the hall, which appeared calm on the surface. "Thank goodness we made it," he thought.
For Osvaldo, Christ taking Selena away was an act of stealing his wife. With his paranoid and ruthless personality, he surely had already planned to kill Christ.
"Christ is also a madman,” he thought to himself. "What's wrong with him? How could he be attracted to Osvaldo's wife?" If Selena wasn't smart enough and quick to react, these two men would probably end up killing each other tonight, and the situation in the capital would becchaotic.
Luke cautiously glanced at Osvaldo's expressionless face, feeling chills down his spine from those cold and eerie eyes. Even when Selena called him "brother," he didn't react, indicating that the man’s emotions had already reached a dangerous level of blackening.
Suppressing his inner turmoil, Luke lifted his lips in a playful expression. "Mr. Poole, if our lady has offended you in any way, please allowto apologize on her behalf and ask you to release her now." However, Christ ignored Luke's words and focused on Selena. His eyes suddenly narrowed as he stared at her and asked, "What did you call him?" "She called him brother," Luke answered on Selena's behalf.
"She's Osvaldo's sister?" Christ couldn't believe it. The Anderson family was known for their love for each other, and Osvaldo was their only child. He had never heard of any other daughter in the family.
Moreover, the way the girl called Osvaldo "brother" so sweetly made Christ extremely uncomfortable, even slightly angry. It felt like someone had taken something that was supposed to belong to him.
Selena sneered, "What's it to you?" Christ's face grew dark and menacing. "Don't call him brother!" Luke felt like he was about to die. He could sense that Osvaldo's powerful self-control was gradually breaking down, revealing his ferocious and ruthless nature.
Luke was frightened and grabbed Osvaldo's shoulder, whispering, "Stay calm. Selena is here, and she said she's afraid of blood and often has nightmares. You'll scare her." Osvaldo's breath suddenly stagnated, but the next second, his facial expression returned to calm.
He just stared at Christ's hands touching Selena, his eyes black as if they could seep into a person.
Selena looked at Christ with a mocking "crazy person” look and said, "He already is one, should I call you 'big brother’ instead?" This person manages everything, even how she should address people.
If Osvaldo was going to barge into Christ's territory to ask for the girl, he had to do it with a good reputation.
Both he and Christ were special and sensitive figures, and they couldn't force their way in.
Therefore, she had to give Osvaldo an identity that could legitimately take her away from Christ.
And that identity couldn't be his wife.
She killed so many of Christ's subordinates and turned Isabel into this miserable state, causing her to becthe laughingstock of the capital and feel ashamed.
If he knew she was Selena, he would have torn her apart on the spot.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThis was probably why Osvaldo had never dared to act recklessly.
Since his wife was not an option, only his sister was left.
When Isabel heard Selena's words, she trembled so much that she almost fell down.
When Christ heard Selena's words, he was stunned.
If that "big brother" was referring to him...
Christ's heart inexplicably began to stir, as if a long-lost emotion had finally found its rightful place.
This feeling caused his heart to beat unevenly, even giving him a sense of addiction.
As a result, he was even more reluctant to let go.
He grabbed Selena's hand and looked coldly at Osvaldo across from him, "When did the Anderson family have a young lady? I've never heard of her..." Luke smiled leisurely, "Lady Lauren likes this girl very much, otherwise, our Osvaldo wouldn't have cto ask you for her personally..." Isabel sat on the side, hearing Luke's words and feeling a stir in her heart.
She had been injured and frightened before, so she hadn't paid attention to anything else. But now, hearing Luke's words, she suddenly realized something.
The man from the Anderson family who had secretly loved her and was so ugly that he couldn't be seen by people had come! In Isabel's heart, an endless resentment rose. If it weren't for that man helping Selena to go against her in revenge for her fleeing marriage, how could she have fallen to this point? Today, she must tell that man who had no self-awareness that even if he did everything, she would never look at him again! Thinking of this, Isabel lifted her head and glared fiercely in the direction of the door.
