The maid who followed Selena upstairs was extremely shocked when she saw Selena walking towards Isabel's bedroom. She stepped forward and whispered to Selena, "Miss, Miss Collins has a bad temper. You should leave quickly, or when her brother comes back, you might..." Selena glanced at the inexperienced maid.
Isabel had a notorious reputation. If it weren't for being in dire straits, no one would want to work for her.
Selena raised her chin and stared into the maid's eyes as she asked, "Have you seen a woman wearing a red agate in this villa? It's bright red, very beautiful, and looks invaluable..." The maid hesitated, but under Selena's gaze, she answered her question, "No." Seeing disappointment in Selena's eyes, the maid added, "I am new here. Perhaps the previous maids have seen it..." Ever since Leah revealed that Selena was the owner of the red agate, Isabel had been on high alert every day. Adding to that, Christ had inexplicably taken a liking to Selena, making the situation even worse for Isabel.
The red agate had become a sword hanging over her head, and she didn't know when it would fall.
In fear for her life, Isabel dared not wear the red agate in front of outsiders anymore, unless Christ was present. Otherwise, she would hide it very well.
Isabel even dared to do anything to those who had seen her wearing the red agate before, afraid that Christ would find out the truth or that Selena would uncover something.
Therefore, the young maid was not lying.
Selena frowned, but she still wanted to search for it herself. She passed the maid and walked towards Isabel's room.
The maid became frantic and nearly cried, "Miss, what | said was true. Miss Collins is the same one as the one exposed on the internet before... please leave now and don't go against her, or else..." Selena smiled at her, "It's okay." Then, she pushed open the door to Isabel's bedroom.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSelena searched through Isabel's room, closet, and jewelry box, but she didn't find what she was looking for.
She even went through all the rooms upstairs and downstairs, but still couldn't find the red agate.
Selena stood on the stairs, frowning.
Could she have been wrong? Did Leah not give the red agate to Isabel? Apart from Isabel, who else could Leah give it to? That red agate is Lady Nevaeh's relic, which she wore around little Selena's neck before she passed away. It's obviously very important.
It might be a token of Lady Nevaeh's love for her beloved man.
After losing the relic, Selena felt empty inside and her expression turned cold and restless.
In the first-floor hall, Isabel was openly humiliated by a woman who barged in, driving her crazy with anger.
Sitting in her wheelchair, she cursed and threatened with extreme malice, her voice piercing like a female ghost.
Upon hearing those curses, Selena's eyes turned even more cold and hostile.
She casually smashed a glass and picked up the sharp, icy glass shard, walking towards Isabel.
The two maids were frightened and covered their mouths.
Isabel's face twisted into a fierce expression as she watched Selena approach with the weapon, and her pale pink dress seemed to be shrouded in darkness.
She was suddenly scared and started to scream incoherently, "What are you two idiots doing? Why aren't you stopping her? Where are the security guards? Why hasn't my brother come back yet?" The maid who was just upstairs turned pale and was about to step forward to stop Selena but was pulled back by an older maid who whispered, "Mr. Poole has instructed us that we don't have to intervene as long as no one gets killed." The young maid was stunned.
As she watched Selena's back, she muttered to herself, "How dare she be so arrogant, so it turns out that..." "Will Mr. Poole really not cause trouble for this young lady?" The young maid was still worried. "Can he control Miss Collins and prevent her from retaliating against this young lady?" Isabel's cruelty had reached its extreme.
This girl who suddenly barged in and dared to confront her, with her vicious nature, who knows what she might do.
The older maid patted her hand and looked at Selena's delicate face, speaking with a gentle tone, "A desired lady and a sister are not the same. A sister is like water thrown out, she will eventually get married, while a desired lady, until she is married, will need to be carefully coaxed by the man she desires..." The young maid understood what she meant and her eyes widened as she looked at Selena, "She... she's..." "Mr. Poole is just outside the door," the older maid said.
The young maid looked at Selena and shivered.
If this is really the girl that Mr. Poole likes, then Isabel really dare not do anything to her.
If she dares to treat this young lady with the same methods as other women, Christ will be the first one not to spare her.
The young maid looked at Isabel, who was hysterical, and suddenly felt that Miss Collins's good days were probably coming to an end.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIsabel watched the strange woman approaching her with a glass shard, while the two maids stood by indifferently, and finally panicked.
She cried with tears streaming down her face, "What do you want to do? Go away! Don't come near me!" Selena looked at her expression, a look of disgust passed over her face. She grabbed Isabel's collar and almost lifted her from the wheelchair.
Isabel let out a scream of extreme terror.
"Ah! Let go of me--" Outside the door.
Christ frowned when he heard Isabel's scream.
The bodyguards standing beside him all looked disdainful.
Selena could negotiate with Christ calmly even when faced with his use of a knife, but Isabel, who a defenseless girl could scare her.
They had no doubt that if Selena was an enemy, and if she were more ruthless, Isabel would immediately betray Christ.
For Christ, Isabel's behavior may not have been a big deal before, but after comparing her to Selena, Isabel's performance was simply unbearable to watch.
Christ heard those piercing screams and felt inexplicably annoyed. He took a deep drag on his cigarette.
Selena lifted Isabel from the wheelchair and looked at her empty neck. Her brow furrowed even more tightly.
It really wasn't on Isabel...
Selena had always held onto hope, but she was disappointed to find out that she had guessed wrong. She thought of Isabel and Christ, who had harmed her time and time again, her eyes grew cold, and she raised her hand, slapping Isabel hard across the face.
