Chapter 1446 Are You Threatening Me?
"If Selena doesn't want him dead, he won't be in trouble."
With just one sentence, the man instantly caught Selena's attention.
Looking at Osvaldo's deep black eyes, Selena suddenly understood what he meant.
Osvaldo knew that she wasn't the real Selena.
She helped the Turner family partly because she took over Selena's body, and partly out of responsibility and guilt.
But that didn't mean that she would be tied to the Turner family forever.
Selena's eyelashes trembled as she looked at the man's pale, bloodless face, and a difficult-to-express touch of emotion and
bitterness arose in her heart. "I..."
Osvaldo looked at Selena, his wife, and realized that she was truly a very kind person.
She strategized for so many people, ruthless and victorious in battle.
But when it cto herself, even the thought of being selfish was full of contradictions.
For Osvaldo, even if that person was really the culprit who wiped out the Turner family, he saved Selena's life.
There was no greater kindness than this.
If it weren't for that person, Selena would have died early, in a place where he had no idea.
For the rest of his life, he would never have had the chance to meet her, like her, and fall in love with her.
Therefore, even if the other party was really that heinous person, he would take on this priceless favor.
He wouldn't let any ungrateful accusations fall on her.
He wouldn't let Selena carry the burden of guilt and shackles for the rest of her life.
He would help her bear this favor, which may be full of sin.

Osvaldo's similarly cold fingers gently brushed Selena's forehead. "Selena, don't be afraid..."
Selena saw in Osvaldo's eyes the indulgence and tenderness that embraced everything.
Although he may not know what happened, this man was telling her that he would help her bear her sin.
Selena suddenly felt a bit of a sour nose.
After the incident with the Soo family, she faced Osvaldo with something she didn't have before.
Selena couldn't understand it for the tbeing, but when facing this man, her heart would always becinexplicably soft and
fragile.
These were all things that had never appeared before.
Patrick looked at Selena's saddened expression and turned to Oscar, "Father..."
Among those present, only he and Hattie were unsure of what had happened.
Compared to Hattie, who was completely unaware, Patrick didn't know everything, but he could guess sof the situation.
There had been skind of conflict between Selena and the Turner family.
Oscar stared at Selena for a moment and said lightly, "This is just our speculation. Perhaps things aren't as bad as we think."
Pausing, he added, "Even if it was that person, you have already killed him once."
"No one has the right to force you to kill him again."
Strictly speaking, Selena didn't owe anyone in the Turner family anything.
She wasn't the one who killed the entire family.
She had killed that person once, and it could even be considered as helping the Turner family to seek revenge.
Selena understood what Oscar meant.
The Turner family would not let the killer of their entire family go unpunished.
If Selena wanted to protect him, they wouldn't stop her.
As for the final outcome, it would depend on who was the better strategist between her and Oscar.
This was the best solution for the current situation.
Selena raised her dark eyes and looked at Oscar. "l understand."
Oscar glanced at Osvaldo and said, "It's getting late, go rest early."
Looking at Selena's pale face, he reminded her, "The real storm is just beginning. Take care of your health as soon as possible."
In this storm in the capital, Selena was the most dangerous person.
She couldn't mess up.
Otherwise, all their efforts might be in vain.
Selena's tone was flat. "I know, Uncle."
Patrick was about to have someone take Selena upstairs to rest, but Osvaldo had already picked her up and walked out.
Seeing Selena leaving, Hattie immediately followed.
Patrick's words got stuck in his throat as he remembered Selena's suppressed emotions, and he ultimately didn't speak up to ask
her to stay.
Osvaldo put Selena in the passenger seat and lowered his head to fasten her seatbelt.
Selena looked at the man's delicate features and suddenly leaned in, affectionately rubbing against him. "Rest early when we get
back."
Osvaldo looked up at Selena's small face and gently kissed her forehead. "Selena is so good, God has already treated you unfairly
once. He won't do it again."
He wouldn't allow it either.
Selena smiled. "Let's go."
Osvaldo started the car and took Selena back to the villa.
At the smoment, just as the sharp blade was about to fall on Manny's neck, the tightly closed door was suddenly pushed open
from the outside.

A thin blade flew out of an unknown person's hand and accurately deflected the razor-sharp blade that was just millimeters away
from Manny's throat.
Manny rolled backwards and fell to the ground, gasping for air.
The man sitting in the front row's eyes flashed with a killing intent, and he looked towards the room behind the door.
Against the dark night, Cassius walked in on the carpet, and respectfully bowed to the man in the front row. "Even though she's
just a dog, she's not someone you can kill casually..."
The man was smiling, but his eyes were cold. "Letremind you that you are not her owner."
"You have the right to kill her, but she also has the right to resist."
The man's face showed no expression. If it weren't for his pitch-black hair blowing in the wind from outside the door, he could
almost be mistaken for a pale and indifferent statue. "Are you threatening me?"
Cassius smiled. "No, I'm just saying that if you kill her just like that, the plan that's been prepared for so many years will be ruined,
and he won't be pleased about it."
"Also, if news of your unauthorized departure from the island were to spread, that person definitely won't sit still. And if he were to
cto the capital himself, the person you care about the most will be in real danger... Don't you think so?"
The air felt like a sponge soaked in blood, thick and heavy.
The man stood up and walked towards Manny.
In Manny's terrified expression, he reached out and grabbed her throat.
Manny opened her eyes wide with unwillingness and resentment.
The ice-cold hand grasping the woman's throat was so frigid that even the skin felt numb and tingly. Furthermore, the pale and
slender fingers kept exerting pressure.
Manny's face turned completely pale in an instant.
She struggled to free her neck from the man's grip, but the man's abnormal strength and pale, slender appearance were complete
opposites.
The air in her lungs grew thinner and thinner, and the pain of dying overwhelmed her.
Manny heard her own throat make a cracking sound and rolled her eyes towards Cassius, who was standing by and watching with a
smile, and reached out her hand...
