Revenge On Love Rats After Rebirth by Olivia Marsh
Chapter 1377 Slapping Selena'S Face?Chapter 1377 Slapping Selena's Face? Selena's lips curled into a sly smile. "I'm not interested in gambling on stones. | just came here because Nicholas kindly invited me. As a junior, if | didn't come, wouldn't it disappoint him?" "We, the Turner family, value respect for our elders and care for our young ones." Although everyone present knew that Selena came here to sabotage the alliance between the Riddle and Soo families, hearing Selena's pompous reasons still made many people unable to help but laugh.
There were quite a few elders in the capital who had sent invitations to Selena.
Maddox, for example, had sent her an invitation when he celebrated his birthday.
Unfortunately, this young miss never showed up.
This was a blatant slap in the face of the Riddle family! But unfortunately, the Riddle family had no standing to scold Selena for being unfilial.
Sure enough, after Selena finished speaking, most of the Riddle family's faces turned black.
Even Maddox, who had always maintained a calm demeanor, looked gloomy.
Selena seemed to not notice the angry gazes of the Riddle family and smiled elegantly. "Furthermore, I'm about to get engaged and need to prepare a wedding ring for my fiancé. Since | have the opportunity, | naturally have to come and have a look. The best jadeite here today, I'll just go ahead and reserve it." If the first reason sounded like polite words in the world of fame and fortune, the last two sentences were simply shocking.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMiss Turner was gambling on stones? Everyone looked at Selena from head to toe with a mix of shock and doubt.
It was undeniable that Selena was intelligent and had outstanding abilities.
After all, in the past few months, she had dominated the capital in many ways.
But gambling on stones was not based on skills or intelligence; luck was the most important factor! Even the most top-notch gambling experts would not dare to make such a bold statement.
Selena didn't even look at the stones and openly claimed that she would take the best jadeite. Wasn't this a bit too exaggerated? Nicholas, who had dominated the world of power for many years, naturally would not be provoked so easily. He stared at Selena and said, "Gambling on stones is not like other things. You can become rich in one cut, or lose everything in one cut. If you're not careful, you could lose everything... Selena, be careful with how you play.” Selena smiled, "Nicholas, you're worrying too much. | never do deals where | lose money. But you need to be careful. If an outsider like me earns a lot of money on your home turf, while the host himself loses everything, then the face of the Soo family won't look too good." Nicholas’ smiling eyes became dark. "You're too arrogant!" After speaking, Nicholas looked away from Selena and towards the direction behind her, with a gentle tone, "Aurelia, come here." Aurelia, who had just walked in with Alfie from outside the door, heard Nicholas’ words and walked over with various gestures, "Mr. Soo." Nicholas waved kindly, "Come to me." Aurelia walked over with a gentle smile, and Cameron, who was originally standing next to Nicholas, took a step back with drooping eyelids. Aurelia smiled apologetically at him and stood next to Nicholas instead.
Nicholas then looked at Alfie, "Alfie, come over too." Alfie's expression was gentle, and he stood next to Cameron.
Aurelia looked at Alfie, who was separated from her by Cameron, and bit her lip sadly.
Cameron seemed to not understand her grievance and stood still without any expression.
The atmosphere suddenly became a bit awkward.
Nicholas’ eyes flashed a bit of gloom, but he laughed loudly, "Let me introduce you all, this is the granddaughter of the ‘Jade King' Wyatt, Miss Aurelia Bennett!" With just one sentence, a storm was set off in the quiet hall.
Just hearing the three words "Jade King" was enough to reveal Aurelia's family background.
And the name Wyatt was even more famous in the entire gambling world, creating a peak record of up to 500 billion overnight, he was undoubtedly the myth of the gambling world! Obviously, no one expected that Aurelia, who didn't seem extraordinary, would have such a powerful background.
What's more important is that the people in the hall looked at Aurelia and then at Selena, their expressions becoming a bit indescribable.
Selena had just said that she wanted the most expensive jade today, and then Nicholas publicly announced that he had invited the "Jade King" to sit in as the Soo family's home team.
Wasn't this blatantly slapping Selena's face in public?! Everyone instinctively looked at Selena's face, wanting to see how this noble young lady would handle such a situation. But to their disappointment, Selena didn't even show any emotions and her expression remained calm, her eyes unchanged.
Nicholas didn't get to see Selena’s panicked expression as he had hoped. He smiled and added, "And although Aurelia is young, she has inherited all the martial arts skills from her grandfather. In the future, she will be in charge of all the jade and gemstone business of the Soo family." The audience was in an uproar.
How could someone who wasn't the owner of the Soo family have the qualifications to manage such an important business? This was practically telling everyone that Aurelia would be the next lady of the Soo family! All eyes were on Selena, Alfie, and Aurelia, with very strange expressions.
The scandal of Selena and Alfie's engagement had just subsided in the capital, and many people were still discussing it.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAt this critical moment, Nicholas sent Selena an invitation to the gambling tournament and announced this news in front of her.
This was telling Selena not to want Alfie, and that Alfie would be better off with Aurelia.
This method was truly indescribable...
If Selena was crushed by Aurelia in the upcoming gambling tournament, Miss Turner would be in a bad situation.
Selena kept her delicate red lips pursed and remained calm.
Nicholas finally looked at Selena and turned to Aurelia, saying in a gentle tone, "Alfie loves jade the most, so you can personally select the best jade for him as a betrothal gift." "Wow"- The aristocrats present couldn't help but gasp.
Selena had just said that she would pick the best jade at the event for Mr. Anderson's ring.
In the blink of an eye, Nicholas asked Aurelia to pick the best jade as a betrothal gift for Alfie.
This was definitely intentionally hitting Selena’s face! The people present understood that Nicholas had invited Selena here to regain the grace that had been lost at the Turner family's event.
