Chapter 20
Selena looked at Cyril coldly, and after a few seconds, she curbed the coldness on her face and pulled
her lips into a smile.
*Since you have opened your mouth, then naturally I can’t count on it anymore, but, Cyril, I hope that it
will never happen again.” Selena’s meaning was known to Cyril.
Dominic has been treating Selena badly for more than a day or two
The ruination of the wedding party alone is a devastating blow to a simple and tender girl
Although it was rumoured that Selena had been promiscuous in the first place, Cyril could see the
nastiness in this.
The Riddle family’s internal strife is not worth his asking about. Leah has the Riddle family as her
backing, and he is happy to see her as the daughter-in-law of the Walson family.
But from the somewhat hysterical behaviour of Mrs. Walson today, it seems obvious that Selena is now
worth more than Leah, and may even have something to do with her mother’s family.
And the mysterious man behind Selena, who spent 500 million on diamonds for her, no matter what the
reason was, Selena, who appeared in the Walson family today, was qualified to have Cyril personally
ask to have her stay.
Cyril glanced at the stiff-faced Dominic, disappointment swept through his eyes, “Don’t worry, Selena, I
am here, naturally I won’t let anyone dare to bully you again. Talon, bring Selena to me.”
Talon walked towards Selena, slightly bending down and extending his hand in a gesture of respectful
invitation, “Selena, welcome to the Walson family as a guest, please.”
With a faint smile, Selena stepped on her high heels and walked gracefully towards the main seat.
The guests were shocked and silent as they watched this young girl, who was notorious and had
nothing to lose, being invited back by the Walson family with the courtesy of a guest.
As she passed by Leah and Dominic, Selena stopped in her tracks, slightly inclining her head, her gaze
extremely cold, “How dare you ask me to get lost?”
As the Riddle’s most honourable daughter, she had only been seen because of her poor health, and
she had never been in anyone’s home more than a few times since she was a child.
Dominic actually dared to tell her to get lost.
Selena narrowed her beautiful eyes and gave the scum and bitch another hard score in her heart,
sneering as she walked towards the top of the high platform.
Leah was already suffering from double pain on her body and feet, and when she was hit hard by
Selena, she was in pain.
Molly was staring at Selena with a cannibalistic look, not paying attention to her daughter, and in a
moment of inattention, Leah once again fell to the ground in disgrace.
But this time, no one stood up for her to seek justice and accuse Selena.
Leah fell to the ground, without shouting or crying, but raising her head and looking up at Selena’s
gradually distant back.
Her slender, lean back is both stunningly beautiful and exalted.
Compared to the way she was in a mess and fell to the ground, it was a huge difference.
Leah hung her head, her long hair scattered down, hiding the fierceness and resentment under her
eyes.
Dominic had suffered one defeat after another at the hands of Selena today, first by his mother and
then by his father, and even Cyril was disappointed in him, so a hint of anger was shown in his face.
As he listened to Selena’s words, he looked at Selena’s gradually distant back, and his heart surged
with a burst of heartbreak and strangeness. Was this really the same Selena who had been submissive
to him and had always clung to him?
Dominic’s father Brodie sunken his face and gave his son a cold look before turning to the guests at the
scene and saying, “Please forgive us for our poor hospitality, and for the next, please enjoy yourself.”
The crowd all nodded, their eyes looking thoughtfully at Selena, and they dispersed in groups of three
or two.
Brodie looked at his wife’s angry face and threw a cold, stern look at Dominic, then turned around and
walked towards the stage, “Today is my father’s birthday party, if anyone dares to make any trouble,
don’t blame me for being ungracious! Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
“Someone, take Leah to rest!”
With these words, Brodie left.
Molly helped Leah up from the ground, looking at her daughter’s bruise, she was angry and
heartbroken, just about to open her mouth to insult Selena, but Leah stopped her
Leah opened her eyes wide to look at Dominic, her eyes reddened, tears in her eyes, and in an instant
she lowered her head again, and said with a low sob, “Mom, help me go change.”
When Dominic looked at Leah’s limping back, full of her hidden grievances, his heart ached and he
wanted to take her into his arms to comfort
her.
His feet moved and he was subconsciously about to go after Leah, but a low, angry shout from Mrs.
Walson came to his ears, “Dominic, stop right there!”
Dominic’s body stiffened, and when he returned to his senses, he could only watch as Leah walked
away.
Mrs. Walson held up the fur on her shoulders and walked towards the stairs, “Come with me!”
Selena stood on the high platform, holding a glass of red wine, watching Dominic and Leah leave, the
corners of his lips curled into a cold smile.
Talon stood beside her, seeing this scene, frowned, but spoke out, “Selena, don’t be upset.”
Selena took a sip of red wine, narrowed her eyes and smiled, “I’m not upset at all.”
Who is Dominic to make her feel bad?
The Selena who would be upset for Dominic is no longer there
Selena lowered her long, slender eyelashes, hiding the coldness and pity under her eyes.
Such scenarios have played out almost every day in the past. She watched her beloved man neglect
her over and over again for the woman who stole everything from her.
Dominic and Leah viciously lacerated Selena’s heart, destroying this soft and kind girl completely little
by little.
Selena felt a slight pain where her heart was, she put the wine glass in her hand on the table and
nodded to Talon, “I’ll go out for a breath of air”
Talon stared at her distant back until he could no longer see her, and then lowered his eyes.
That man is not good enough for you!
So, stop grieving for him.
Selena walked out of the banquet hall and went to a remote corner of the garden, pressed her hand to
her heart and took a deep breath.
She lowered her head, looked at her heart and whispered, “I don’t know why you like him, but a man
like that is not worthy of your liking.”
A long, slender arm wrapped itself around her waist.
Selena’s gaze went cold, and just as she was about to struggle, she heard a somewhat familiar voice
coming to her ears, “Not feeling well?”
