He stared at the closed door of the room in front of him, his eyes shifting.
Leia walked in and said angrily to Selena, "Lady Selena, Kaitlyn is followed by a bunch of reporters, the Riddle family is not sincere in apologizing at all, but they want to use you to calm down those public opinion storms." Selena's black gaze was extremely cold, but there was little unexpected emotion.
How could the high and mighty Riddle family put down their status to please a granddaughter they didn't care? Rather than a request, it would be more aptly described as coercion.
"Then let them wait." Selena finished and looked across at Hattie, "Go wash and change your clothes, after eating, | will make Kaitlyn apologize to you on her knees in front of a large crowd.” Hattie's gaze flashed and she got out of bed and went into the bathroom to wash up.
Outside the door, the man raised his hand and knocked on the door, but there was no movement at all inside.
Selena seemed to have made up her mind to ignore them.
Kaitlyn didn't want to apologize, but if she didn't apologize to Selena and Hattie, her mother wouldn't let her go back to the Riddle family, so she was more afraid than anyone else.
She looked at the closed door of the room and raised her hand to knock on the door, "Selena, | know I'm wrong, | shouldn't talk nonsense, | won't dare to do it again, please forgive me for the sake of my young age." The reporter, with the camera, filmed Kaitlyn standing outside the door, raising her hand to slap the door with a look of remorse and apology.
Kaitlyn said a lot of things and her mouth was dry, but there was still no movement inside.
Kaitlyn felt resentment in her heart but had to hold it in, looking back at the young man behind her, "Angus, what should we do?" Angus was silent for a moment and said to the man behind him, "Go get a room card from the waitress, let's break in." After all, they were only two girls, so if necessary, they had to resort to some extraordinary measures.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJust as he spoke, the door to the room on the left was opened.
Alighter clicked in the quiet space and the group froze, turning their heads to look over.
Then their faces froze abruptly.
On one side stood a man clad in almost only black and white. Every line on his body is perfected to the extreme, with an eerie aura enveloping his entire being.
Between his long and fair fingers, he held a cigarette, with smoke curling around him, obscuring his face but revealing deep eyes.
His dark eyes flickered, and he slowly spat out a word, "Fuck off!" After Hattie had breakfast and regained some of their energy, Selena finally felt relieved.
Leia came over, "Lady Selena, the group has gone downstairs, when do we go out?" More surprise came into Selena's eyes, "How could they have gone?" This is not the style of that new Mrs. Riddle.
Leia's big eyes curved, with a hint of mystery, "They were quarreling outside, to the point where it reached the neighbor next door, and then they just left.” The surprise in Selena's eyes increased.
What kind of neighbour does she have next door that makes the Riddle family of the capital automatically back off when they see him? However, Selena's curiosity did not last long, after all, M City is not the territory of the Riddle family, and not everyone will fear the Riddle family.
She looked across at Hattie and said in a soft voice, "I bought you a present, did you see it?" Hattie's dead eyes lit up with ripple before she said one word dryly, "No." The nurse hurriedly went out and showed Hattie the gift that Selena had sent over by special plane overnight last night.
Hattie held the doll that looked very similar to her when she was young, and looked at the doll's smiling expression for a long time. After a while, the lifelessness in her eyes dissipated somewhat...
She held the doll tightly, raised her head, and said to Selena, "Thank you, Selena.” She had grown up under the shelter of the Riddle family since she was young and had been pampered, but when something happened, the only one who came out to shelter her was Selena, who had been living in exile since she was young.
She at least had her mother to dote on her and lived a carefree life until she was thirteen, but Selena had nothing and grew up alone in Creephia.
The confusion in Hattie's eyes faded at this moment, becoming cold and strong again.
Selena is just a girl of only nineteen, and she cannot drag Selena down.
Those bad people had now come to her door, and she could not let them bully Selena.
Selena looked into her eyes and sighed slightly.
The resilience of this girl is truly frighteningly strong.
Selena stood up, "Let's go." Leia took her phone, pushed the door open and walked towards the lift.
As she passed by the next room, Selena paused, turned her head to look at the closed door and smiled slightly as she remembered the gift that the other party had sent.
Then she lifted her steps and stepped into the lift.
Angus and his group, standing outside the hotel's main entrance, all looked unpleasant.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThey finally knew where that Selena, who was living in exile and had no one to turn to, had the courage to openly go against the Riddle family from the capital.
Kaitlyn, however, did not understand, she just felt that the man even more terrifying than the feeling Leon gave off.
The man had clearly said only one word, but it made these powerful generals of his father, who did not even dare to retort, take her and hastily retreat.
Kaitlyn's heart jumped and she tugged at Angus’ sleeve, "Angus, who is that man? Why is he defending Selena-" Angus covered her mouth and looked her in the eyes, his tone solemn, "Miss Kaitlyn, | am sorry." Kaitlyn burst into tears.
Despite what her mother had said, she knew that her father loved her after all when she saw that Angus himself had brought her here.
He couldn't let her actually go and kneel down and apologise to Selena, the so-called apology was just for show.
However, the man who told them to leave just now was obviously beyond Angus’ control. She really had to go and plead with Selena on her knees..
Kaitlyn was aggrieved.
She has always been low-key and cautious in the capital city, never daring to abuse her identity as a Miss of the Riddle family, for fear of being caught and used against her. Unexpectedly, in the magic city, for the first time acting in the capacity of Miss of the Riddle family, she ended up falling into Selena's hand.
To get into such a big mess.
Kaitlyn was aggrieved and resented Selena even more in her heart, she was just a child, why was Selena unwilling to let her go? As Kaitlyn cried, Selena stepped on her high heels and walked out of the hotel's front door.
At the first sight of Selena, the people from the Riddle family were stunned.
Through that video, they could guess that this stray Lady Selena might not be a person to mess with, but the moment they saw her in person, they were still frozen.
