Chapter 1048 To the World, the Most Beautiful Rose Luke shouldn't have call the way back to the capital. There would be more information about her within Creephia...
The study was silent.
After a long time, Luke's voice finally rang out.
"They died in battle." "All the troops we sent out died in battle. When she was found, she was surrounded by a pile of corpses at the center." "She wasn't tortured or abused, but... her heart was damaged." The Federation did not disclose any further details, and they could not find out more.
For a moment, the space and taround them seemed to freeze like a film strip.
Osvaldo lowered his eyes, and Luke couldn't see his emotions clearly. But he could feel the man's oppression and discomfort from his pale and trembling brows.
After a while, Osvaldo suddenly stood up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, his dark gaze looking outside.
On the brown corridor, a slender figure was strolling over.
As the wind blew, the blooming plum blossoms scattered like snowflakes and landed on the black hair.
She walked towards him, the sweet scent of flowers filling the air.
The yellowed branches beside her sprouted green buds.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWinter was coming to an end.
Luke suppressed all his emotions and said, "I'll go to the Federation in person." As he spoke, he walked towards the door and opened it.
Selena's hand, which was about to knock on the door, paused in mid-air as she saw Luke. She blinked and said, "Mr. Jordon?" Luke stepped aside, "Lady Selena, | have given the information about Leah to your husband. And also, your script will be released soon." Selena's doubts were instantly dispelled.
So he cto deliver the information for her.
Selena smiled at Luke and was about to thank him when she suddenly noticed Osvaldo standing by the window, and she keenly sensed that he was in a bad mood.
Selena's smile faded. "lI have something to do, so I'll leave first," Luke looked at Selena, his mood inexplicably complex, and lowered his voice. "Mrs. Anderson, your husband is in a bad mood, cheer him up." After speaking, he left.
Selena was confused and walked behind Osvaldo, raised her hand to wrap around his waist, and leaned her head out, looking at the man's profile and softly asked, "What's wrong?" Osvaldo lowered his head, looking at the girl beside him who was tilting her head to look at him, his eyes gentle and affectionate, with an emotion that Selena couldn't understand.
He raised his hand to hold the two slender and flexible hands in front of him, turned around and led her in a direction, "Come." Selena's eyelashes trembled, she was unable to understand the situation, and obediently walked with the man holding her hand.
As he was about to leave, Luke turned his head and looked at the two figures standing together behind him.
Suddenly, he felt that fate might really exist in the world.
These two people who would never have had any intersection before had beca couple.
He withdrew his gaze and looked up at the sky above his head, sighing softly.
How could a person suddenly change so drastically, like two different people? It could only mean that they were two people from the beginning.
It's just a pity that the real daughter of the Turner family... couldn't live in the end.
Luke remembered what he had investigated a few days ago, and his eyes turned completely cold.
Osvaldo brought Selena to the liquor cabinet.
He opened a bottle of red wine, poured most of it into two glasses, and handed one to Selena.
Selena looked surprised at the wine that was handed to her. The bright red wine was set off by the man's long and fingers, and it was indescribably tempting.
There was no smile on Selena's face as she looked up at the man in front of her.
Osvaldo had never allowed her to drink.
But now, he took the initiative to pour her wine.
Osvaldo leaned against her forehead, his lips only a few centimeters away from hers, and whispered, "To the most beautiful rose in the world." Selena looked at the man's enchantingly perfect face. Despite his extrgentleness, she still saw sdeep emotions hidden within.
After a moment, Selena took the glass of wine, and a sweet smile appeared on her face. "If | get drunk, you can't bully me." When Osvaldo was giving her a bath, she was just too tired to wake up, but it didn't mean she was unaware of anything.
Later, he...
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSelena seemed to remember sindescribable scene. Her cheeks turned red in an instant.
Osvaldo looked at her shy and guilty expression, and his eyes flashed gently. "Okay, | won't bully you." With his assurance, Selena felt relieved, lightly clinked glasses with him, tilted her head back, and drank the wine in her hand.
Principal Marshall walked down a long corridor. The corridor was deep and extended down the whole way, with various murals carved on the walls. Due to the lack of human presence for a long time, the cold white light made the space exceptionally silent.
The sound of footsteps echoed in the air.
At the end of the corridor was a room. Principal Marshall walked up to the door and pushed it open without hesitation. In that instant, a low, hoarse voice sounded from inside the room, "Is it over?" Principal Marshall put down what was in her hand and walked over to pull the curtains, instantly plunging the room into darkness.
"You've just woken up and your eyes aren't adjusted yet, so you can't see the light for now." "How's the child?" "She's fine," said Principal Marshall in a calm voice, rare delight evident in her tone. "She has exceeded everyone's expectations." There was a long silence from the voice.
Principal Marshall frowned. "You don't seem to be happy... why?" "The information you gave me, is it all of her data?" "I got it from Benjamin, so it shouldn't be wrong," replied Principal Marshall, her brow furrowing even more tightly.
There was another long silence.
"Let's talk about it later," said Principal Marshall with an almost inaudible sigh. "You rest up for now. Benjamin should be coming over in a while, and then..." Principal Marshall didn't continue, because nobody could predict what would happen next.
In the evening, Selena's alcohol buzz had worn off, and she finally got the information about Leah. She sat in the garden and stared at the file for a long twithout moving. Leia stood beside her and sensed Selena's breath growing colder, feeling inexplicably alarmed.
After a while, Selena suddenly raised her hand and threw the file out heavily.
Leia was taken aback by Selena's angry and icy expression. It was the first tshe had seen Selena lose control like this.
"Madam..." Selena took a deep breath and tried to suppress the anger lingering in her heart. "Leia, pack up. We're going back to Creephia."
