Chapter 653 Who Am | Supposed to Like? Selena smiled encouragingly at a group of students before obediently being carried away by Osvaldo. After she left, the group of young men's gaze fell on the woman on the ground. The woman covered her face and cried, making it difficult for people to watch.
However, the feeling of compassion disappeared instantly when they saw the clothes on the ground that were corroded by sulfuric acid. If Selena hadn't acted quickly, she would have been the one who suffered greatly.
Someone spoke up and asked, "What kind of grudge does this woman have with Lady Selena to use such a vicious method to hurt her?" The few girls who were present at the time thought of the woman's ruthlessness when she threw sulfuric acid and shuddered with fear.
Jemima angrily said, "Lady Selena doesn't even know her. We saw her crying here, and we kindly tried to comfort her. As a result, she turned around and threw a bottle of sulfuric acid towards Lady Selena’s face. After Lady Selena dodged, she still didn't give up and grabbed a knife to stab her. If it weren't for Lady Selena taking the knife away first, she would have been injured today!" After hearing the girls" account of the incident, everyone felt that the woman deserved it.
"Ronin, what are you doing?" everyone turned to see Ronin holding his phone and recording a video.
After hearing the students’ inquiries, Ronin calmly said, "There are a lot of people in the hotel, and someone might take advantage of this woman's injury to cause trouble." Everyone remembered the incident where Selena was falsely accused by a silent video before and took out their phones to take pictures and record videos, trying to preserve the scene as much as possible.
Shortly after, the police arrived. After all, it was a group of students, and they had called the police to report what happened.
Along with the police were doctors.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe woman was taken away in an ambulance, and several students stayed behind to give their testimony to the police. After everyone left, Leon walked out of the private room.
The police who were cleaning up the scene were surprised to see the head of the Riddle family from the capital appearing here.
"Mr. Riddle, what are you doing here?" The Riddle family's young lady narrowly escaped disfigurement, and now the Riddle family's young master appeared here. It was hard not to speculate.
Leon looked down at the bloodstains on the ground and spoke in a cold tone, "Find out who ordered this." The police nodded immediately, "Okay." Selena was brought back to the castle by Osvaldo.
She was thinking all the way why Rachel wanted to ruin her face.
She met the actress for the first time and didn't even speak.
The only intersection they had was Diana.
Diana caused her trouble in the perfume competition, and then her sister appeared in Creephia University, openly opposing Leah with her.
And she used such a vicious method to disfigure her face.
She didn't know Diana, so the only possibility that could cause a conflict between them could only be for...
Selena's gaze slowly fell on Osvaldo's exquisite and eerie face.
Osvaldo noticed the gaze and lowered his long eyelashes to look over, "What's wrong?" Selena raised her hand and touched his face, "Does that Diana... like you?" Osvaldo originally wanted to ask who Diana was, but he met Selena's serious eyes, was silent for a moment, and said, "Maybe." Selena shook her head and said to him, "She's not good, don't like her!" Osvaldo's blood-red lips slightly curled up, and his eerie and gentle ghostly eyes locked onto her. His voice was incredibly gentle, "Then who should | like?" Selena was enchanted by the tenderness in the man's eyes and blurted out without thinking, "Of course, you should like--" She was about to blurt out a word, but at the critical moment, her overpowering rationality pulled her back.
It disappeared in an instant between her lips and teeth.
Like her...
But she couldn't like him.
So he naturally couldn't like her either.
Selena's curled eyelashes trembled slightly, and there seemed to be some emotion gathering in her eyes. She said softly, "Of course, you should like a good girl that you also like." Osvaldo's breathing stopped, his face slightly pale. After a moment of silence, he whispered, "If | meet her in the future... should | come and tell you?" Something seemed to grip Selena's heart, and she subconsciously turned her head away from Osvaldo's gaze and muttered, "Uh-huh." With the man having a beloved girl, their arranged marriage agreement should naturally come to an end.
The man lowered his black butterfly-like eyelashes, and a faint trace of paleness and fragility appeared in his exquisite eyes.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe silence almost suffocated the air.
Selena raised her head and looked at Osvaldo's face, which had lost all color. Although she didn't quite understand where the problem was, she vaguely sensed that she might have hurt him.
She bit her lip, her slender shoulders sagging as if they couldn't bear the weight.
The man lowered his eyelashes, so Selena couldn't see the disturbing emotions in his eyes. It seemed like he had reached the threshold of a dam breaking, and for a moment there were countless wicked thoughts and words threatening to spill out, but he held them back tightly.
She grabbed his slender, fair fingers, about to say something, when Osvaldo's voice interrupted, "It's late, you should sleep.” Selena looked at the man's pale face, her breath catching in her throat. "I..." Osvaldo gently kissed her hair, looked directly into her eyes, and with a smile that bordered on devoutness, he said, "Be obedient.” Afterwards, he hugged her and sent her upstairs.
If he didn't send her away now, he was afraid he would lose his reason and do something irreparable.
Selena stared at the man's handsome face, which still seemed so gentle, but inexplicably gave her a chilling feeling.
In those pure black eyes, there was no trace of reason, of anything else, only her.
Selena shivered and lost all her words in an instant.
Osvaldo dutifully sent her back to the bedroom, knelt down and changed the bandage on her knee, wrapping it in waterproof gauze as usual.
Then he found all her nightgowns and placed them within her reach.
Finally, he stood in front of her, lifted her chin, and with a ghostly and gentle breath that seemed to penetrate her tender skin, he said, "There's going to be thunderstorms tonight. If you're afraid, be sure to call my name." Selena instinctively looked outside the window.
Beyond the French windows was a beautiful garden, bathed in warm yellow light that made the night seem particularly peaceful and gentle. Further away was the endless darkness of the night.
