Chapter 55
Selena looked at his eyes, and a touch of pressure grew steeply at her heart, with some hint of
nervousness.
Perhaps it was an intuition, but she always felt a strange look of anticipation creeping across the man’s
pretty face, making her palms hot.
She stared at Osvaldo, took the bowl and said softly, “No need.”
Then, cocking her head, she started to eat the porridge.
Her brows slightly furrowed because she didn’t like the smell, Osvaldo gave a low laugh.
Selena ate half a bowl of porridge obediently, and Osvaldo fed her a few soft fruit candies to dispel the
smell of medicine, before returning to the sofa to resume his work.
Selena lazily nestled on the sofa at the other end, her long hair scattered over her thin shoulders, her
forehead propped up on her hands as she read the script.
There was a moment of silence in the living room.
Selena fell asleep on the sofa.
Osvaldo walked over after making sure she was sleeping. He squatted down and watched the girl
pillowed on her arm, her long eyelashes dropping, her eyebrows still wrinkled even in her sleep, and
she was not sleeping peacefully.
After staring, Osvaldo suddenly leaned over, his soft lips falling on her furrowed brow as he whispered,
“Good night.” The sleeping women enjoyed a reassuring goodnight kiss, her brow gently relaxed, her
delicate red lips moved but no sound came out, her head tilted and she fell into a deeper sleep.

Selena parked the car under the Olympus Group Building, ignoring all the curious and astonished eyes
on the way, and stepped into the president’s special lift with her high heels.
When the lift reached the top floor, she saw Luke was sitting in his office having a cup of coffee on the
rare occasion that he was not late for work.
When he heard the knock on the door, he, who hadn’t slept enough, sighed in resignation, dropped his
coffee spoon into his cup, sat up straighter, and put on the air of a boss of the business elite, “Come
in.”
Selena walked in with a slight smile, “Good morning, Mr. Jordan.”
Looking at her glowing appearance, Luke sincerely suggested, “Selena, you can actually not have to
work so hard, really.” Even if she didn’t work, the twenty percent of the Riddle family’s shares and the
bride price sent by Osvaldo would be enough for her to squander for several lifetimes.
Selena blinked, puzzled, “Do I work hard?”
When she was at her busiest, she could go around for three days and nights without rest, but when it
came to that, she didn’t even realise that she was busy.
Only she fell off a second after it was completely over.
Luke rubbed his ruffled eyelids, his expression returning to his previous cynical one, and said to Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Selena, “Sit down, I’ll call them to come over for an audition.”
“No need.” Selena smiled and raised the object in her hand at him, “I know where they are.”
