Chapter 816
It was as if he wanted to take Selena right here in the kitchen.
‘What the f*ck!
What am I thinking?
I can’t cheat on Celia!’
David admitted that he had almost fallen for Selena’s allure, but his mind power was so strong that he had
managed to suppress his own desire.
Selena did not expect this.
She was certain that she saw blatant desire in David’s

She was so excited, thinking that she had succeeded.
After all, David was the kind of man to take full responsibility once he had slept with you.
However, a moment later, calm returned to David’s eyes and there was no sign of desire anymore.
Selena was both shocked and in awe.
NO
awe.
The man had a terrifyingly strong grip on his self-control.
She could guarantee that David was the only young man who could hold himself back from her charm.
It made sense how David managed to become a supreme peak God Rank powerhouse at such a young age and
achieve a success others could never imagine attaining.
Talent must account for part of his success, but so did self -control.
“Selena, I know that the King family wants me to join their ranks and your family may believe that a marriage union
is the strongest tie to form, but I will not agree to a loveless marriage . Perhaps you were right about Celia, but so
what? I don’t care. I can and will control myself. Not every man thinks with their lower halves and your allure does
not affect me,” David replied calmly.
“David, since you became Somerland’s most powerful youth, I’ve only ever seen you as my future husband. There
is a place in my heart for you. Even if I felt nothing for you in the beginning, I’ve found myself slowly falling for you,
so it won’t be a loveless marriage. Celia will never be able to bear your children. Has it been your plan all along to
die alone?”
“A catastrophe is coming, and no one knows what will happen tomorrow, I don’t even know if all of us will survive it.
There’s no point thinking about what will happen in the future when the catastrophe might destroy all your plans.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmPlus, I’ve never truly thought about having children of my own before.”
Selena wanted to say more when David interrupted her, “ Alright, enough of this. Celia’s come down, so go chat
with her instead. I’m fine here by myself. Celia’s an innocent girl and she truly likes you. I know you approached her
with hidden intentions, but all I ask is that you treat her genuinely and well.”
“Don’t worry. I like Celia too, I would’ve treated her genuinely even if you didn’t ask me to,” Selena replied sincerely.
“Good. Rest assured , I recognize the contributions the King family has given to Somerland . I will not stand by and
watch should you need my help.”
“Thank you!”
Selena glanced at David once more before turning to leave the kitchen.
David continued to busy himself and a table full of
flavorful dishes was complete.
The three of them chatted and ate away happily, and any signs of the discourse in the kitchen vanished.
