Chapter 1173 He's Back Lady Lauren couldn't help but feel anxious at the thought of not only dealing with the difficult Oscar but also the even more difficult Callum in the Turner family.
It was really not easy to find a daughter-in-law these days, especially when she was the only daughter of the Turner family.
Would she ever have the chance to be served tea by her daughter-in-law in her lifetime? Lady Lauren sighed heavily with her worries.
"Benjamin..." she called out.
Osvaldo stared at the direction of the Turner family mansion for a moment before slowly retracting his gaze.
Lady Lauren looked at him with concern. "What's wrong, my love?" As they say, a mother knows her son best, and Lady Lauren could sense that something was off about Osvaldo.
It was a good thing that Oscar had returned home, but Lady Lauren could sense that Osvaldo wasn't happy about it.
Osvaldo thought of Selena’s reaction when she saw Oscar and the feud between her and the Turner family. Suddenly, he turned around and headed back towards the Turner family mansion.
Lady Lauren couldn't help but feel resentful, but she didn't call Osvaldo back.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe main reason was that, as the mother, she couldn't help but be biased towards Selena, and Osvaldo was no different when it came to his wife.
Benjamin snorted. "What a useless son!" After speaking, he took Lady Lauren by the waist and led her away, leaving her with tearful eyes of resentment.
Inside the Turner family mansion, Patrick came downstairs shortly after Selena left.
Although he didn't hear what they said, Patrick was still keenly aware that neither Selena nor Oscar were in good spirits.
It didn't make sense for Oscar to have any ill intentions towards Selena, as she was Callum's daughter and his only niece.
Moreover, he had just returned home, so it was unlikely that he would intentionally target Selena.
Patrick walked over and looked at Oscar. "Father, although Selena grew up outside, she is kind-hearted, well-behaved, and has no resentment towards the Turner family. She even goes out of her way to help..." Oscar coughed lightly and didn't answer Patrick's questions. Instead, he whispered, "Is everything ready?" Patrick nodded. "Tom is ready." Oscar murmured, "Then let's go." Patrick was startled. "Aren't we bringing Selena along?" Selena was Callum's daughter, and they were going to visit the graves of her great-grandfather and the other deceased relatives of the Turner family. Why wouldn't they bring her along? "Isn't this indirectly denying her identity as a member of the Turner family?" Oscar fell silent for a moment, then said, "Go ask her if she wants to go or not. If she looks hesitant, don't force her." Patrick was taken aback. Despite his confusion, he went upstairs and knocked on Selena's door. After a minute, Selena opened the door with a pale face and asked, "What's up?" Seeing her listless appearance, Patrick furrowed his brow and asked softly, "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?" Shaking her head, Selena replied, "No." Changing the subject, Patrick asked, "Father and | are going to visit Grandpa. Do you want to come with us?" Selena hesitated for a moment, then looked away from Patrick's gaze and said in a strained voice, "I don't feel well and don't want to go out.” Patrick looked at her complexion and suddenly understood what Oscar meant. It wasn't that he didn't want Selena to go; she didn't want to go herself.
Patrick remembered when Selena had just returned to the Turner family, he had asked her if she wanted to visit Callum. At that time, they didn't know if Callum was still alive, and all that had been reported back to the capital was Callum's death. So, the Turner family had built a tomb for Callum, but Selena had declined.
Patrick had thought she was sad and didn't want to see her father's grave, so he didn't force her. But now she refused again...
Patrick suppressed his extra thoughts and patted Selena's shoulder. "Selena, you are a member of the Turner family. If there is anything bothering you, don't keep it inside." Selena lowered her head and said softly, "Okay." After a few more reminders, Patrick turned around and left. When Oscar and Patrick left, Selena stood at the door for a while before turning to go upstairs.
Standing outside the Turner family laboratory, Selena suddenly remembered that Black Crow and White Crow were no longer here. They were in the Capital University laboratory. Selena turned around and headed downstairs, counting the steps as she walked. After taking a few steps, she suddenly saw a pair of black leather shoes. Selena was taken aback and looked up to see a familiar face in front of her.
Selena blinked and said, "How did you..." Osvaldo looked at her pale face and gently stroked her with his hand.
Selena's eyelashes trembled.
Then, the next second, the man reached out his hands and pulled her into his arms.
Selena leaned on Osvaldo's chest, listening to the strong heartbeat of the man, suddenly feeling a sense of unprecedented peace of mind.
Even her own heartbeat seemed to calm down involuntarily.
Selena raised her head, looked at Osvaldo, and smiled softly, "I'm fine. | was just about to go to Capital University. Will you come with me?" Selena never avoids anything.
After sorting out all the causes and effects as quickly as possible, she would seek the truth.
When the underground city virus broke out, she was very young and didn't know many things.
But the Black Crow and White Crow were both older than her, and they must know what she didn't.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe had never heard them mention it before, perhaps because they thought it was too fanciful and there was no need to bring it up.
But all the luck turned into nothingness under the premise of her "death and resurrection.” Selena had even prepared for the worst.
Perhaps she would really face the person she had personally beheaded.
But it didn't matter.
She could kill him once.
And she could kill him again! From the moment he committed those sins, whether it was the victims of the underground city or the tragedy of the Turner family, he was doomed to lose the qualification to be forgiven, regardless of his reasons.
Osvaldo stared at Selena for a long time, and after making sure she didn't have any major problems, he picked her up and walked out.
Osvaldo drove and brought Selena to Capital University.
Within an hour, Oscar's news of returning to the Turner family had almost spread throughout the entire capital.
Even Principal Chow and others within Capital University received the news.
Therefore, as soon as Selena entered Capital University, she was stopped by Principal Chow, who rushed out, "Selena, your uncle is back. Is it true?" Selena looked at the old man's excited eyes and smiled slightly, "Yes, he's back, and my father will come back too."
