Chapter 1140 Selena's Jealousy When Selena returned, the Anderson family welcomed her, although they were not particularly close to her. But this time, not only Lady Lauren, but even the other members of the Anderson family seemed to be distant from her.
Constance heard it very clearly.
The butler was reporting to Madam Selena, not the young master! This was a clear message that Selena was recognized as the mistress of the Anderson family by everyone.
Selena did not agree to let her in, and she might not even have the qualification to enter through those two doors today! Constance felt the weight of this difference, and her expression beccolder and colder.
The old butler walked into the hall and saw Osvaldo standing downstairs expressionlessly, obviously waiting for Selena to cdown and have breakfast together. The old butler whispered, "Young Master, Miss Baxter is here." Osvaldo had no extra emotions, "Don't see her." After speaking, he remembered the little troublemaker who was deliberately avoiding him upstairs and changed his mind, "Let her in." The old butler was surprised and looked up, only to see that although Osvaldo said he wanted to see Constance, his gaze was firmly fixed on the direction of Selena's room. He immediately understood.

When Constance walked into the hall, she saw the black-haired and black-clothed man standing there alone, his eyelashes hanging down like black butterflies. He seemed to have no idea that a living person had walked in.
But there was no sign of Selena around.
Constance was used to Osvaldo's coldness, so she wasn't upset at all. Instead, she smiled, "Osvaldo, long tno see." Osvaldo had no reaction to her words, as if she didn't exist in front of him.
But that didn't stop Constance's enthusiasm. She looked at the handsman in front of her, and a hint of excitement trembled in her eyes.
Upstairs, when Selena finished washing up and changed her clothes to go downstairs, she saw Osvaldo and Constance standing face-to-face in the hallway, as if talking about something.
Selena paused in her steps, her beautiful face suddenly looking somewhat unpleasant. The woman who was competing with her for the position of head of the research department at the institute yesterday was now coming to Osvaldo's door so blatantly...
Downstairs.
The man who seemed to have ignored Constance, suddenly turned his head and gave her a cold glance, "What are you here for?" Constance knew she had offended Selena yesterday and, given this man's temperament, he would be naturally angry. But even if he was angry, he wouldn't do anything to her, right? Constance met the man's icy gaze and smiled faintly, "I'm here to bring you sinternal information about 717." "After all..." Constance's eyes settled on Osvaldo's face and she showed a gentle and joyful smile, "It was because of you that | had the opportunity to join 717 back then. | want to thank you." Standing at the corner of the stairs, Selena, who was eavesdropping, frowned upon hearing this. So, it was all thanks to Osvaldo that Constance could join 717? Selena suppressed the strange emotions in her heart and walked downstairs. Hearing the footsteps, Constance looked up and sure enough, Selena was coming downstairs.
Constance smiled at Selena, "Miss Turner, | apologize for coming here without notice. | hope you don't mind." She paused, without waiting for Selena to speak, she continued, "Yesterday was too hasty, and | didn't have a chance to formally introduce myself. My nis Constance Baxter, and I'm a friend of Osvaldo's." Friend...
Selena subconsciously looked at Osvaldo.
Osvaldo had no expression on his face, neither confirming nor denying Constance's words. He just stared at her with his deep, ghostly eyes.

Constance stared at Osvaldo without blinking, seeing that he didn't deny it, a hint of joy flashed in her eyes. She was about to speak, but suddenly Osvaldo cforward, took Selena's hand, and led her to the dining table, "Selena, it's tfor breakfast." Selena woke up a bit late today and if she delays any longer, she fears she will miss mealtime.
Her curled eyelashes trembled as she looked at Osvaldo and asked, "Aren't you going to eat with me?" Osvaldo looked at her with a sly gaze and replied, "I've already eaten." Selena was clearly taken aback by this as she was used to men always dining with her when they were together.
After a moment, she looked up at Constance, who was standing behind Osvaldo, and asked, "Miss Baxter, have you eaten?" Constance smiled and replied, "Thank you for your concern, Miss Turner. Madam Lauren sentsdelicious pastries yesterday, and | couldn't resist having them for breakfast." Selena's eyes flickered, and she looked at the breakfast that the chef had prepared with care on the table. After a moment, she suddenly said, "Noah, | don't want bread for breakfast today." The butler immediately asked, "Madam Selena, what would you like to eat? | will have the kitchen prepare it for you." Selena said with a smile, "Leia said that my mother-in-law sent over sbird's nest soup yesterday, and | would like to have that." Lady Lauren truly embodies the saying, "The way to a man's heart is through his stomach." After Selena returned to the capital, Lady Lauren would often send people over with piles of things for her.
Even with Selena's pickiness, Lady Lauren's excellent cooking almost won her over.
The butler said, "Madam Selena, please wait. | will have them take the food out of the refrigerator and heat it up for you." Selena said with a smile, "Thank you, Noah." Constance's smile faded slightly.
Selena looked up at Osvaldo and said kindly, "I'll have breakfast, and you and Miss Baxter can go take care of business." She wondered if Osvaldo was also interested in 717 that Constance mentioned earlier.
Osvaldo stared at her eyes with a deep gaze, successfully capturing the hint of discomfort in her eyes. A trace of excitement flashed through his deep black eyes. He rubbed Selena's head and said, "Enjoy your meal!" Selena softly replied, "Okay." Osvaldo turned and walked towards the office area, and Constance smiled at Selena and followed.
Selena sat at the dining table, lowered her eyelashes, and absentmindedly stirred the bowl of porridge in front of her.
