Chapter 7
Leah was directly slapped by her and heavily fell to the ground.
"Leah!"
Mrs. Riddle and Dominic immediately came up to her.
Dominic's anger was so powerful that he raised his hand and tried to punch Selena in the face, but his fist stopped fiercely when it was a few centimeters away from her face.
Selena looked at him with an eerie chill in her eyes.
In those clear eyes wrapped in ice, Dominic suddenly saw his own blood-drenched self.
His blood seemed to be frozen, and he suddenly shivered.
Leah collapsed in Mrs. Riddle's arms, originally thinking that she had been beaten so that she could see an even worse scene of Selena, but surprisingly what she expected didn't happen.
Leah trembled with pain, forcing her face to twist, and before she could continue this drama, her chin was suddenly lifted forcefully by a cold hand.
When Leah raised her head, she met Selena's dark eyes.
"Leah, you stole my father, stole my home, stole my fiancé.You can take all this crap, and I don't want it, but..." Selena had a sharp cold light in her eyes, her voice was freezing to the core, "In this world, there are always those things that no one else can snatch away!"
"I've written a script that will bring you glory or make you fall to pieces and blood!"
"If you dare to steal, be prepared to pay a terrible price. Wait and see. I will make you infamous and repentant!"
Leah was taken aback by the coldness of her tone, and shivered in vain.
She endured the pain in her face and said in a cold voice, "Sis, there should be a limit to your nonsense. Your script is missing and you say I took it, but do you have any proof?"
Selena threw her away in disgust and pulled out a handkerchief to wipe her hands. Her eyes were filled with pride and coldness. "I don't need that, Leah, remember, sooner or later, I will make you kneel on the ground, holding my script, crying and begging me to take it back, you- "
"Shameless scum!"
When Selena finished, she slammed the handkerchief on Leah’s face and turned to walk out.
In the early sunlight, her slender back was straight, and her blue skirt, about to reach the ground, was dignified.
Leah's face twisted as she stared deadly at Selena's back, her body shaking with anger.
Selena didn't let out a breath until she walked out of the house.
Even if she was not the real Selena, she still felt sorry for that kind and tender girl.
She looked down, to her heart, and said tenderly, "In this world, there are three things that no one else can snatch away from you, the food that you eat in your mouth, the knowledge that you learn in your head, and your own dreams. These three things cannot be snatched away by others, no matter what they do."
"Your father and fiancé are scum, they don't deserve you, but I promise, I will help you get your dream back."
After Selena finished, she waited for a few more moments and finally felt much better inside.
She looked up at the blue sky for a moment and was about to leave, but she heard a respectful voice coming from beside her.
"Young Madam, please get in!"
Selena stopped. She turned her head to look over, and saw that at some point, there was a man wearing a black suit with a stiff, cold face next to her.
She smiled, "Do you know where I'm going?"
"Young master has ordered that you should not forget to eat your lunch even when you are busy."
The man pulled open the rear door and waited respectfully.
It was only then that Selena remembered that, technically speaking, she was now considered a married woman.
It was quite a strange experience to be disciplined by her husband.
Selena smiled faintly and lifted her steps to the car.
The car drove back to the castle.
When Selena went back, Osvaldo was sitting at the dining table, obviously waiting for her.
Although Selena's face was as warm as ever, Osvaldo was still acutely aware that she was not in a good mood.
He raised his hand and pulled out a chair for her.
Selena sat down across the table, smiling slightly. "In the future, if I come back late, you don't have to wait for me."
Osvaldo gave her a deep look.
His wife, who said she was coming home to get something, ended up returning empty-handed.
Although she did not reveal any disappointment, she must have suffered a loss.
Noticing his gaze, Selena knew what he wanted to ask, and looked up with a faint smile. "There was an accident, and I won't be able to bring my things back until days later."
When she finished, she picked up her spoon and drank the soup gracefully.
Osvaldo looked at her and asked no more questions.
After lunch, Selena went back to her room for a half-hour nap, and when she came downstairs, Osvaldo was leaning on the sofa in a dignified manner, his long, slender fingers flipping through something.
Selena sat down beside him and asked with arched eyebrows, "Does Olympus Group have plans to make a TV series recently?"
Osvaldo casually put things down, "You want to be a star?"
Selena shook her head, "I have a script."
She thought carefully for a moment and added, "It's very well written, and if it's shot with care, it will be a hit!"
The previous Selena was a truly talented woman.
It was a pity that she met a scumbag and buried her talent.
Osvaldo's gaze was somewhat deep as he stared into Selena's eyes, "You are now the president of Olympus Group, you don't have to tell anyone what you want to do."
Selena froze, then laughed.
She had forgotten about the bride price she had received in the morning.
She was about to say something about the dowry, but she suddenly saw the newspaper that Osvaldo had thrown on the table, the very news that Selena had been dumped in public at the wedding.
She pondered for a moment, looking into the man's inscrutable eyes. She spoke softly, "Do you have any questions you'd like to ask me?"
The corners of his mouth curved up in a slight arc, his fingertips stroked her cheek, and his tone was firm, "You are now a married woman, it's time for you to forget your so-called fiancée."
"Give me five days." Selena smiled faintly, "Five days later, at Cyril Walson's birthday banquet, I will personally go to break off the engagement."
