Chapter 671 The Whereabouts of the Ruby "When were you born, Selena?" The man's tender voice made Selena feel no need for defense. She subconsciously answered, "The day when it snows every year..." Her mother originally named her Beata, but her father didn't like it. He wanted their daughter to have the most proud and unrestrained life with him and her mother.
The peerless beauty.
This is the meaning behind her name.
A hint of longing appeared on Selena's face. She didn't notice the man next to her brightening eyes, like a dark night sky with clouds receding to reveal a sky full of stars.
He slightly lifted the corners of his mouth, didn't say anything else, and just took her by the hand and walked towards the brightly lit hall.
Selena cback to her senses from her memories, only to realize that she was already sitting at the dining table.
She vaguely sensed that something was not quite right, but before she could figure it out, a slender hand appeared in front of her, holding a bowl of freshly cooked soup.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSelena lifted her head and met the man's gentle and profound eyes, "You are my wife, which means you belong toalone..." Selena's heart jumped heavily as she saw the man opposite her lower his eyelids, hiding the coldness in his eyes and showing a slightly eerie yet beautiful smile on his face. "You are mine, and you can't get too close to other men, or else | will get angry..." A wave of numbness surged through Selena's nerves as she looked at the man's perfectly flawless face, leaving her stunned.
"Just kidding." As if sensing her shock and unease, Osvaldo raised his thin eyelids and smiled.
He stared deeply at Selena, his voice hoarse as if coated with honey, his tone sounding like an inquiry yet also like a command, "Of course, you can be close to other girls, but you must keep your distance from all men, alright?" Selena breathed a sigh of relief, looking at the familiar tenderness on the man's face, her spirits relaxed.
She had "cuckolded" her husband , and he was gracious enough to make a joke out of it.
For a husband, his actions were already quite generous.
She made a promise in a timid manner, "This was an accident. Don't worry, | won't have any inappropriate contact with other men before we get divorced." Osvaldo laughed happily, looking at her serious expression, a strange sense of satisfaction appearing in his eyes.
After this interruption, Selena forgot about her fleeting doubts from before, lowered her head and focused on her dinner.
Selena slept very well that night.
The next day, Selena ran into Leah fully armed at the entrance of Creephia University.
Leah stood in front of her, lowered her voice, and said, "Selena, let's talk!" Selena narrowed her eyes slightly, sneered, and looked up. "You don't even have the qualifications to enter the university campus now. You will only have a high school diploma for the rest of your life, living like a street rat..." Leah carried resentment in her eyes. She gritted her teeth and said, "Selena, don't you want to know the whereabouts of the ruby?" Selena turned her head, coldly staring at Leah.
Leah gritted her teeth, holding back her fear and resentment, and stared at Selena with a sharp look.
After a moment, Selena turned around and walked towards a nearby bubble tea shop.
Leah saw that Selena was still under her threat, feeling a sense of satisfaction, and followed Selena into the bubble tea shop.
Selena ordered a bubble tea, "You have ten minutes." Leah sat opposite Selena and glanced at Leia, who was standing behind Selena. "I can only tell you, and no one else, about the ruby." Leia knew the importance of the ruby to Selena and glared at Leah with hatred. "Don't think that just because you're pregnant, | won't dare to hit you. If you dare to have any bad intentions, | will definitely kill you!" She had never seen anyone more scheming than Leah! Even after causing her own mother's trouble, Leah still wouldn't behave and seemed to want to cause more trouble for herself before she would be satisfied.
Leah ignored Leia's warning and just sneered, "Selena is skilled, but I'm just a pregnant woman. What can | do to her?" Leia was so angry that her eyes widened, "You-" Selena patted Leia's hand, "Wait foroutside." Leia was not happy, "Lady Selena..." She hasn't had enough of living yet, so she won't choose to go down withfor now," Selena smirked, "Go on, | know what I'm doing." Leah, this kind of person, would only give up her hypocritical facade and do something illegal and murderous if she truly had nothing left and was desperate.
Leia stared at Leah with a murderous look and reluctantly walked out.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSelena held her bubble tea and spoke lazily, "You can speak now." Leah stared fiercely at the elegant and beautiful woman in front of her.
However, in just a few months, Selena has becso beautiful that every move she makes exudes an air of elegance. There's not a trace of her past self anymore.
Can a person really transform so completely? Leah's eyes flashed with a hint of eerie light as she spoke in a low voice, "You know the red jade isn't withanymore. | gave it away..." Selena bit on her straw as she waited for her to continue.
"... 1 gave it to Isabel, but she passed it on to someone else. | wasn't sure who had it." Selena raised an eyebrow.
"I went to Isabel to look for it myself, but | didn't find it," Leah continued.
At first listen, Leah's words seemed innocuous.
"So where is it now?" Selena asked, smiling but with a hint of coldness.
"It's with Rachel..." Leah gritted her teeth, seeming extremely reluctant, but continued, "Ever since you went to Isabel to ask for the red jade, she found out it wasn't mine but a relic of your mother's. She hates you and wants revenge, so before leaving the country, she planned to get the red jade from Rachel and destroy it..." Selena listened quietly, her expression inscrutable.
"Why did you decide to tellthis?" Leah stared at her angrily. "Don't think I'm helping you! Isabel hates you and she has her brother to protect her. Rachel can't afford to offend her, but that woman is too proud and has no self-awareness. She won't just hand over the jade to Isabel. She's the star of my script, and | can't let anything happen to her!" In other words, Leah had no other choice but to reveal the entire secret to Selena.
With Christ protecting Isabel, only Selena could retrieve things from her in all of Creephia.
Selena's dark eyes locked onto Leah.
