Chapter 1299 Wait for Me to Pick You Up Tomorrow
Selena spent the whole day giving lectures in the research department. In the evening, she finally left
the department with Leia.
Outside the door, she ran into Christ. The person in charge of the Poole family wouldn't show up here
for no reason, and Christ was obviously here to confront her.
Selena frowned, and Leia tightened her lucky cat in her arms.
Christ's dark gaze fell on Selena's face. After staring at her for a moment, he suddenly smiled, "Don't
be so hostile. I just want to talk to you."
Selena's voice was cold, "If you insist on opposing me, I don't mind taking down the entire Poole family
with you!"
Christ's tall figure leaned towards Selena, and he smiled lightly, "How could I bear to hurt you?"
But the other person might not be so kind!
If she didn't know that killing the Poole family leader would cause a lot of trouble and she couldn't beat
Christ, Leia would definitely rush over to beat up the man in front of her. How dare he offend Madam
Selena!
Leia's eyes turned red with anger.
Selena's beautiful face suddenly became cold.
Christ looked deeply at Selena, "Selena, you can't marry that man!"
Selena sneered, "If I want to marry someone, no one can stop me!"
Christ didn't say anything, just smiled with a meaningful look, and then turned and left.
After Christ left, Leia finally relaxed and turned to Selena, "Madam Selena, let's go home and tell the
young master that this bastard man bullied you!"
Selena smiled, "He can't bully me."
Strictly speaking, Christ only said a few words to her.
A few insignificant words were not worth it for Osvaldo to go against Christ for her... This did not fit
Selena's way of doing things.
After Selena finished speaking, she walked outside. Leia stomped her foot angrily and followed her.
Selena returned to the villa not long after, and Osvaldo came back.
The man walked in front of Selena, squatted down in front of her, his deep gaze fell on Selena's face,
vaguely revealing a touch of heart-stirring emotion.
Selena stared at Osvaldo's handsome face for a moment, and after determining that he was mostly
unhappy, she realized that Leia must have told Osvaldo about her encounter with Christ in the research
institute.
Selena chuckled and gently stroked Osvaldo's cheek with her hand, "I'm not angry, and you shouldn't
be either, okay?" Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
Osvaldo raised his hand and pulled her onto his lap, his tone seeming gentle yet cold, "Selena, you
promised to stand up for me..."
Selena blinked and explained, "Those words weren't directed at me. In Selena's opinion, they were
meant for Creephia."
So she didn't really care.
As a result, she wasn't angry.
That was Selena's answer to him.
The man lowered his head and gently brushed Selena's cheek until he had kissed the blushing girl into
a state of weakness before finally stopping.
Osvaldo held Selena in his arms and sat at the dining table, using a spoon to feed her.
Selena widened her eyes and carefully observed the man's expression, disappointed to see that apart
from anger, he had no other emotions.
It seemed that the Turner family wasn't going to call the Anderson family today after all...
Osvaldo looked at the dejected expression on her face and a slight smile flashed in his eyes as he
asked in a soft voice, "What's wrong, Selena?"
Selena quickly regained her composure and looked at Osvaldo, "I'm going back to the Turner family
later."
Osvaldo softly murmured "Okay," and his thin lips curved slightly, "I'll take you there."
Seeing that the man had no extra emotions when she mentioned the Turner family, Selena's last hope
was also extinguished.
She kept a calm expression and obediently ate her meal.
After dinner, Osvaldo fulfilled his promise and personally sent Selena back to the Turner family. Only
after handing her over to Patrick did he turn around and leave.
Selena watched as Osvaldo's figure disappeared from view and blinked her eyes.
Patrick noticed the inexplicable "reluctance to part" expression on her face and asked, "What's wrong,
Selena?"
Selena looked away and smiled, "It's nothing. By the way, I went back to the research institute today.
Please tell Uncle about it. We can start working on some things now."
Patrick sighed secretly as he looked at the innocent expression on the young girl's face. In fact, the
news of Selena returning to the research institute had spread throughout the capital as soon as she
returned. If it weren't for the Turner family, with her talent, she wouldn't have to suffer such grievances.
Patrick felt a pang of heartache as he held Selena's hand and led her back to the hall. "I'll go find
father, you rest well."
Selena nodded obediently. Patrick felt a sense of frustration seeing Selena's docile appearance. Most
girls her age were pampered and cherished by their parents, but Selena had no parents and had to do
everything on her own. She had no one to cry to when she was sad, no one to share her joys with, and
no one to keep her company when she was scared at night.
As her cousin, Patrick felt that he could only do so much to take care of her. The thought of Selena
living such a lonely life for over a decade made his heart ache. If only Lady Nevaeh were still alive,
things would be so much better.
When Selena saw that Patrick hadn't left, she asked in confusion, "Patrick?"
Patrick hesitated for a moment, then suddenly spoke up. "If you need anything tonight, you can call
your boyfriend."
Selena was too strong. She never said anything negative about the Turner family. Perhaps no one
could make her drop her tough exterior except for that man. Patrick had always been against Osvaldo
being near her at night, but now he was encouraging her to call him.
Selena was surprised by his suggestion, but didn't think too deeply about it. She smiled unconsciously
and said, "Okay!"
Patrick breathed a sigh of relief when he saw her smile, and then turned to go upstairs to find Oscar.
Selena returned to her room, changed into her nightgown, and was ready to go to bed. But she
remembered Patrick's words and suddenly got up to check her phone.
Osvaldo hadn't said goodnight to her yet, but according to his promise, he would definitely say it.
In the quiet space, Selena held her phone and waited quietly. As if knowing that she might not sleep
well in the Turner family, her phone vibrated promptly at nine o'clock, showing a simple message:
"Goodnight, I'll come to pick you up tomorrow."
Although the message was brief, it filled Selena's heart with joy.
