Revenge On Love Rats After Rebirth by Olivia Marsh
Chapter 767 Can'T Be KidnappedChapter 767 Can't be Kidnapped "Really disappointing..." In one sentence, those who were waiting for her to show a fearful and pleading expression became even angrier.
William dangerously narrowed his eyes and sneered, "Is this your last words before you die?" Selena's gaze drifted lightly over the faces of the group, as if looking at a stone or a blade of grass on the side of the road, feeling too lazy to waste time on them.
Without even looking at the deadly weapons surrounding her, she turned around and walked elegantly and gracefully towards the upstairs.
Being so coldly neglected and despised, William's face turned pale.
Claudia couldn't accept being looked down upon and her self-esteem being hurt, she snatched the knife from the bodyguard's hand and swung it towards Selena's back, angrily saying, "I think it's better for you to go directly to hell! Your last words and everything, save them to say to your deceased relatives underground!" A dark rage seeped into Selena's eyes.
Just as her hand was about to rise, something suddenly flew in from the entrance and hit Claudia's back heavily.
Claudia screamed and fell flat on the ground, kneeling in front of Selena.
Selena had already seen Patrick walking to the stairs. Her footsteps suddenly stopped, and for a moment, it seemed like she wanted to retreat.
However, in the end, Selena stood still, not moving, just slightly shifting her gaze.
At the same time, everyone also saw what had hit Claudia.
It was the Gallagher family's bodyguard! However, at this moment, the other party's face was pale, and they were foaming at the mouth, obviously done for.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWilliam's face immediately turned extremely dark, and he looked fiercely in the direction of the entrance.
Of course, he wasn't foolish enough to think that Selena really dared to come to the capital alone.
But because he had investigated Selena's identity before and knew that she was just a nobody from Creephia, although her personality was very different from the information, the fact was that she didn't have anything.
Especially in the past decade or so, she had never been to the capital, let alone had the opportunity to access any upper-class connections or resources.
Therefore, the backer this woman brought with her must be some unsavory characters who couldn't be put on the table, people who wanted to rescue the Turner family from them? Dream on! Obviously, everyone else had the same idea as William. Their plan had been interrupted, and the group held their breath, their faces proud and their eyes unkind, looking at Selena with a sneer.
However, in the next second, when everyone saw the figure gradually approaching, their expressions froze on their faces in an instant.
The man was wearing a black silk shirt and a casually draped black windbreaker on top. The dark blue cuffs shimmered with a low-key and restrained brilliance, with the button fastened all the way to the top, revealing only his long and fair neck.
His features were noble and delicate, with a pair of eerie black eyes that were deep and strange.
As he approached step by step, the sinister and cold aura that surrounded him pressed down on the air in the entire hall, making it seem increasingly thin.
At this moment, including the research team who had been watching coldly, everyone was shocked and their mouths opened wide, as if they were dying fish, with only one thought echoing in their minds! Impossible! This is impossible! Absolutely impossible! However, the man's actions in the next second cruelly shattered their last glimmer of hope.
He walked up behind Selena and casually took off his windbreaker, draping it over her. Then he stretched out his long arm, enveloping her whole person in his embrace, and lowered his head to touch her pale and cold cheek, his tone filled with deep affection and pity. "Don't you want to see him?" Although it was not very obvious, Osvaldo still sensed that something inexplicable had changed in Selena's feelings towards Patrick after leaving the Riddle family villa.
She had always been worried about Patrick.
It was a more heartfelt worry compared to before the Turner family's situation was exposed.
She hoped he would survive, but at the same time... there was a kind of indescribable resistance towards Patrick.
No -- perhaps it wasn't resistance, but rather an evasive mentality born out of a certain sense of guilt.
Osvaldo's eyes darkened suddenly.
He didn't like Selena wasting her emotions on other people, and he didn't want her to be burdened with shackles and live an unhappy life. So the best way was to be straightforward.
Selena's mouth moved, shaking her head. "No." Patrick had already come closer, looking at Selena who was being held in the man's embrace, and let out a deep sigh.
He didn’t want her to be involved in the first place.
But Selena had already come, and had openly acknowledged her identity. At this point, it was already too late to try to get her to withdraw.
At the moment, it's not the time to investigate why Selena suddenly came to the capital.
Patrick coughed softly and looked at Selena's pale face. A hint of tenderness could be seen in his stern gaze as he said, "Selena, come here." Now that she's back, they can't allow these malicious men to continue to approach her.
Osvaldo clearly noticed a momentary stiffness in the girl's body as she was held in his arms.
The man held her shoulder, restraining the turmoil in his heart, and gently rubbed her cheek as he said, "You, go ahead.” It was not easy for him to bring the girl to the capital.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe had to make her admit that she was Selena.
That meant she had to feel a sense of belonging here.
The Turner family was the most important link.
Selena has a blood relationship with the Turner family, so Patrick wasn't afraid of any bad ideas that he might have.
As for whether he could take her away, he didn't need to worry too much since they were already married.
Selena's eyelashes trembled.
As an only child, she had no siblings, but she did have some cousins, though she rarely got to see them due to her health issues. When she did see them, they were respectful rather than affectionate towards her.
Now, facing her newly discovered blood relatives, Selena was rare at a loss and couldn't help but look up at Osvaldo.
Osvaldo smiled encouragingly at her.
Selena squeezed her hand and suppressed the extra emotions in her heart, walking somewhat stiffly towards Patrick.
Patrick naturally sensed the girl's tension, and a hint of tenderness flashed in his eyes as he patted her shoulder and said, "Later, I'll take you to see where your father lived." Selena thought of Callum and murmured, "Okay." Knowing that she was not yet accustomed, Patrick did not force her. His cold gaze turned towards the uninvited guests who had intruded into the Turner family.
Those people stared blankly at Osvaldo, their arrogance and conceit from earlier completely gone.
The expressions of those from the research institute were even more lifeless.
Among them, some had heard rumors about the master of the Anderson family, who was interested in Lady Nevaeh's daughter...
