Chapter 820 Thrilling! Time slipped away gradually.
When the sky outside the window was completely dark, Selena put down the paintbrush in her hand.
She stood up and calmly walked to the bathroom.
Leia was worried about Hattie and had been sitting restlessly. When she saw Selena standing up, she immediately walked over.
She had intended to speak, but suddenly saw the painting Selena had just finished. She was stunned and stared at it for a long time until Selena finished washing her hands and came out, causing her to snap out of it.
Selena wiped her hair with a towel and went downstairs to have dinner.
Leia looked at Selena's back and then turned to look at the painting again. She opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but seemed unsure how to express herself. She stomped her foot and ran out to catch up with Selena.
The moment Selena put down her spoon, the doctor called.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Lady Selena, Miss Hattie is fine. This situation is mostly due to the little girl's psychological effect. She was afraid that the Riddle family would send her to a mental hospital, which caused her anxiety." Selena lowered her eyes and said calmly, "I see.” After that, she hung up the phone.
Patrick looked up and saw Selena wiping her fingers with a handkerchief. He was not surprised by the doctor's words and guessed it long ago.
"The struggles of the wealthy families are cruel. Miss Riddle is only thirteen years old, and apart from Leon, there is no one she can rely on... It's normal to be afraid." Selena's eyes deepened. "The Riddle family won't let a mental patient have the right of inheritance. Now, she is officially at a disadvantage in the competition against the Riddle twins." "That's not necessarily true,” Patrick coughed. "The Riddle family's illegitimate son has a congenital heart disease. Compared to Miss Riddle, he has the possibility of being cured. That young master can die at any moment.” Selena smiled and did not continue the topic of the Riddle family. "There are many things to do tomorrow. Rest well tonight.” After that, she turned and went upstairs.
Patrick saw her back and the words that had been on his lips were swallowed back.
As the person in charge of the Capital Medical College, Patrick knew more about the Riddle family than anyone else. Originally, according to the young master's condition, he couldn't live past the age of fifteen.
A few months ago, he had received several notices of his critical condition, but unexpectedly, he suddenly began to improve in a strange way. At the same time, Mrs. Riddle died under mysterious circumstances.
Patrick lowered his eyes, hiding his expression.
Although Selena appeared calm, everyone could see that Hattie was important to her.
The situation of the Turner family is far more complicated and heavy than that of the Riddle family. Selena has her own pile of troubles that she hasn't solved yet. If she rashly gets involved in the Riddle family's affairs, it will only make her and the Turner family's situation even more dangerous and difficult. It seems that Selena had anticipated everything early on, which is why she appeared so calm. Such a gentle yet ruthless woman...
The next day, it seemed that even the weather felt the unusual restlessness in the air, sweeping away the ice, snow, and haze of the past few days, and becoming clear and sunny.
At 8 o'clock in the morning, the entrance of the Capital Expo was packed with people and traffic jams, and the media gathered.
The bright red carpet spread to the end of sight, and countless celebrities and luxury cars drove in. Foreign faces were everywhere, including many famous celebrities in various fields.
The final of the International Perfume Contest held in Capital was undoubtedly the most eye-catching event in recent times in countries around the world.
All the media gathered together, competing to take crazy photos and interviews of every celebrity appearing on the red carpet.
Once international superstars or famous entrepreneurs arrived, it would cause screams.
The uniform excitement was far more spectacular than any event in the entertainment industry. Various glamorous stars shuttled among them, but they mostly became embellishments and companions in this noble social scene today.
Compared with the rare stars in the eyes of their fans, the aristocratic sons and daughters who control various fields in Capital are the objects of attention for various people.
This is not only a rare grand event, but also an unprecedented large-scale social venue. Celebrities from various countries dazzled the eye, stars cheered, and capitalists appeared one after another. Before it even began, the audience was already fascinated.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe screams never stopped, and hundreds of security guards were maintaining order back and forth. Today's media darlings were undoubtedly the national perfumers who advanced to the finals.
A blue Lamborghini and a black Audi almost arrived at the scene at the same time and stopped at the gate.
The reporters and media at the entrance had long raised their cameras and aimed at the car doors, their excited eyes shining.
"l wonder who arrived first..." "Whoever is qualified to walk on this red carpet is already a success..." Facing the expectation of the crowd, the car doors of the two vehicles were almost pushed open at the same time, and two young women in formal dresses almost got out of the car at the same time. Instantly, there was a burst of intense screams on the scene.
"Ah! It's Mandy and Alice! They actually came together!" "This year's top five in H Country, Mr. Turner is probably not going to participate, let alone Leah who is a weak contestant. Strictly speaking, it seems that only three people are participating, and we are at a disadvantage compared to other countries with five contestants..." "What's there to be afraid of? The competition is not about the number of people, but about quality. We have Lady Selena, and she will definitely not lose!" Mandy stood on the red carpet and turned her head to Alice, smiling slightly. "Alice." Alice nodded at her in greeting. In this kind of international competition where everyone is on the same team, there was no need to be hostile to each other.
The two were about to take a step and walk into the gate when suddenly there was a piercing brake sound from behind, and a red BMW suddenly accelerated from afar and rushed straight toward Mandy and Alice.
"ARI" "Watch out!" Countless people on the scene suddenly screamed. Mandy and Alice didn't have time to react. They saw the car about to hit them, but the driver from the Olympus Group who was driving for Mandy suddenly rushed forward and pushed the two forward.
Mandy and Alice were pushed and fell hard on the carpet. The red BMW car stopped exactly where they had just stood.
It can be imagined that if the driver had been a step slower, the two perfumers from H Country would have been bloodied on the spot.
This sudden incident stunned everyone on the scene.
After coming back to their senses, fans immediately stepped forward to help the two perfumers who fell to the ground. Dozens of security guards surrounded the car.
"Where did this bastard come from! How dare he hurt someone in public?" "This is deliberate murder! Arrest him and send him to jail!"
