Revenge On Love Rats After Rebirth by Olivia Marsh
Chapter 919 OverpraisedChapter 919 Overpraised Benjamin's hand, twisting the chess piece, stopped in mid-air. Selena's final checkmate swiftly occupied his palace, marking the end of the game.
Benjamin casually threw his chess piece aside and lazily leaned back on the sofa, staring at Selena with a sneer. "You're young, but your heart is pretty dark." Selena smiled faintly. "You're overpraising me. It's common knowledge that conductors have black hearts. Besides, I'm the biggest ace in the conducting world. Those who underestimate me because of my age usually end up in a pitiful state.” Moreover, she was currently his daughter-in-law. This was her first visit, and he probably wouldn't care that she had tricked him.
Benjamin continued to lounge on the sofa for a while before saying indifferently, "If there were truly heroes in this world, then the Turner family would be full of them." Without the constraints of the chessboard, Selena's mind wandered to other things. Benjamin's words instantly made her smell something unusual.
His next sentence confirmed Selena's suspicions. "If the Turner family had agreed to be deserters, so many people wouldn't have died back then." Selena's heart skipped a beat. Maybe everyone had guessed wrong. It wasn't the Anderson family that had broken the agreement; it was the Turner family that had refused the Anderson family's help. And then, for some reason, they had still chosen to fight, knowing the consequences.
Thus, they all perished on the battlefield.
Selena's lips even trembled as she asked, "They...?" "They died on the battlefield,” Benjamin finally opened his eyes, and a trace of coldness flickered in his eyes. "Except for Nevaeh and the youngest son in the family, all the men in the Turner family died on the battlefield." Selena suddenly closed her eyes, concealing the deep sadness and anger in her eyes.

"I understand,” Selena stood up and bowed to him with the highest etiquette of the Riddle family. "Thank you very much." The Riddle family's betrayal had created so much evil, yet so many heroes had stepped forward to clean up the mess and move forward.
Benjamin looked at the young girl in front of him. "My son has been fixating on avenging the harm done to your family lately..." Although he was somewhat disgusted, he was still his own son. The sight of his son's unproductive behavior was irritating.
Selena lifted her head and smiled gently. "I have never blamed him," she said. She never thought Osvaldo was at fault. If Osvaldo was at fault, wouldn't she be even more guilty? Selena took a deep breath, composed herself, and looked back at Benjamin. "So, Osvaldo, | won the chess game, can you trust me to take over that faction now?" Benjamin remained silent, his already cold face becoming even colder. It seems that being obedient is deceiving.
Selena looked at the man's expressionless face and laughed. "Osvaldo, look at me. | inherited my father's extraordinary medical talent. I'm sure I'm the one who can decipher that data in the end! And | must go to the underground city. So, isn't it best to give it to me?" Most importantly, only the people under her command have the ability to decipher the data in the shortest time possible. The data has been in H Country for ten years and has not been deciphered yet, which shows how difficult it is. But she is different.
After Divine Love was destroyed, she obtained a lot of research materials. Black Crow and White Crow knew more about the Divine Love virus than the people in the capital of H Country. Coupled with Callum's finished data, they will surely be able to successfully develop an antidote! The thought of this made Selena unable to contain her excitement.
Benjamin remained silent.
When Callum entrusted Nevaeh to him, he wanted his wife and daughter to be safe in the end. After the Turner family incident, Nevaeh left the capital.
In order to prevent the organization from targeting her again, Nevaeh cut off all contact with anyone in the capital over the years.
Apart from the news of Nevaeh's sudden death due to illness, no one has heard any news about Selena.
The first time Benjamin knew about Selena's existence was because of Osvaldo. As a father, he naturally knew about his own son's temper.
When Osvaldo suddenly told him that his daughter-in-law was named Selena, Benjamin had a feeling that Callum was going to harm his son. And it turned out to be true... Callum's daughter almost hooked Osvaldo's soul.
Regarding this situation, Benjamin didn’t have any extra thoughts except thinking that his son was worthless.
After all, there was no one who knew Osvaldo's nature better than him, as it was inherited from him.
Benjamin looked at Selena's expectant expression and stood up expressionlessly. Selena looked at the boss with an angry expression and turned around to leave, looking surprised.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWas he really not planning to give it to her? Did her sincerity and strength not show enough? Thinking about this, Selena felt wronged. She had already gone to great lengths to get this boss to speak up for her, exposing her calculating side in front of her boyfriend's father.
The result was that he turned around and left...
As soon as Benjamin left, Osvaldo walked out from inside and saw Selena's slightly wronged face.
He raised his hand and touched her face. Selena blinked and said to Osvaldo, "I really think I'm suitable!" If it were Selena from Creephia, she would naturally keep her distance from Osvaldo as far as possible. But as Selena in the underground city incident, she became a party to it and had no qualifications or possibilities to escape.
She couldn't go home right now, the capital forces were not strong enough, but Benjamin had been running his business for so many years, he must have something readily available.
But he refused to give it to her...
It was heart-wrenching! Osvaldo rarely saw Selena with a look of not being able to get what she wanted, and he found it cute. He touched her little face and said, "You can say it to someone else." Selena asked, "What do you mean?" Osvaldo hugged her and said, "If you say it to someone else, maybe there will be a surprise immediately after.” Selena thought about it, blinked, and then turned around and walked out.
Just as she took a few steps, Osvaldo grabbed her back. "Where are you going?" There was a hint of displeasure in his tone.
She did not bother to coax him? Selena turned her head and looked at him sincerely, "I'm going to coax my mother-in-law. | hope she can speak a few more good words for me in front of my father-in-law. Maybe this matter will be settled... isn't this what you mean?" Osvaldo was stunned.
Selena looked at his expression in surprise.
