CHAPTER 976 SMART GIRLS WILL SUFFER

Chapter 976 Smart Girls Will Suffer

However, contrary to her wishes, when he forced Selena to admit that she accepted him as Selena,

Christ and Alfie both developed a complicated relationship with her that was hard to cut off.

And there was Stanley, whom she trusted.

And he became the last person she would meet in her life.

In the gradually darkening sky, Osvaldo's face was cold and devoid of any humanity, with a hint of

twisted malice in his eyes.

...

Just as Selena was about to raise her hand to knock on the door, someone opened the door first.

Christ was standing behind the door and chivalrously made way for her, saying, "Come in."

As Selena looked at the huge French window in the private room, she was stunned. Suddenly, she This content © 2024 .

seemed to have remembered something and walked quickly to the window, and sure enough, she saw

Osvaldo standing downstairs, waiting for her.

Seeing Osvaldo standing there all alone, with his head bowed, Selena felt a sense of oppression in her

heart.

She was about to call out to him when suddenly the room darkened.

Someone had pulled the curtains shut.

Selena's eyes narrowed. "What are you doing?" she asked, reaching up to pull the curtains open. But

they were electronically controlled, and she couldn't move them with her hands.

Christ chuckled and grabbed her wrist, pushing her up against the window. "Selena, even if you don't

like me, you don't have the right to trample on my feelings like this!"

Selena's back was against the icy-cold curtain, and she suddenly remembered that the curtain was

transparent.

By now, the street lamps outside had come on. If Osvaldo looked up, he would see her being pressed

up against the window by a man... and he might misunderstand!

Selena was both angry and annoyed.

Luke had told her before that Christ was crazy and that he would do anything to achieve his goals,

regardless of the consequences.

A chill ran through Selena, and she was about to speak when she looked up and saw the

uncontrollable anger in Christ's eyes, and her expression suddenly froze.

She suddenly remembered that Christ might not be a good person, but his feelings for Selena seemed

to be real.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have pampered the counterfeit carnelian and turned her into who she was.

Perhaps it was because she paid too much attention to Osvaldo's movements when she came in that

she had angered him.

If this was really the case, and she brought Osvaldo up here, and the two men faced off, it would not be

worth the trouble.

Selena calmed down her emotions a bit and said coldly, "You hurt me, let go of me."

Christ stared at her eyes fixedly for a moment and then let go of her hand.

Selena rubbed her red wrist and walked to the opposite side of him, where she was furthest away from

him but still visible to Osvaldo if he looked up.

Christ sneered and didn't bother with her thoughts, turning to the counter to pick up a cup of pearl milk

tea and placing it in front of her.

Selena looked at the cup of pearl milk tea and was stunned.

She didn't like milk tea.

What she liked was the Selena of Creephia.

Selena looked up and stared at Christ. "I have something to ask you."

Christ's eyes flickered with a hint of complexity as he inserted the straw into the milk tea cup and bent

down to push it in front of her. "No sugar added. Would you like to try it?"

He knew what Selena wanted to ask. Ever since he saw her in Creephia and realized she was the little

girl from all those years ago, he knew she would eventually come to find him.

Selena stared at the milk tea being handed to her and wondered if Osvaldo was watching her right

now. Another man was offering her a drink, waiting for her decision.

Christ's attitude was also clear. If she didn't make a move, he wouldn't tell her anything.

To drink or not to drink?

Selena tilted her head slightly, looked through the curtains, and gazed down to where Osvaldo was.

After composing herself, she picked up the milk tea with both hands, bit the straw, and took a sip.

Seeing this scene, Christ suddenly sneered and his expression was filled with disappointment. "You

really... don't remember anything!"

Selena forced herself to calm down, placed the milk tea back on the table, and looked up at Christ's

eyes. "Can you tell me now?"

Christ stared at her for a while before asking in a low voice, "What do you want to know?"

Selena lowered her eyes, her pale fingers trembling uncontrollably. "Where did you meet me?"

This time, Christ's silence was longer than before. He looked at her and said, "You're too smart, and

that could be dangerous."

Selena stared back at him with a determined look. "I remember very little, but I vaguely recall that I

once saw boy in a very dark place, and I think I called him 'big brother'."

Christ's heart trembled. Selena's eyes were cold as she continued, "I guess the reason why I have a

vague memory of this is because nobody knows I met you back then."

"I was not even five years old at the time, and it was impossible for me to come to Capital by myself.

Therefore, it must have been my mother who brought me here, and no one in the Turner family knew of

my existence for all these years. So whoever my mother brought me to see back then, it definitely

wasn't the Turner family."

"Even a few months ago, no one in the major families of the capital knew that Lady Nevaeh had a

daughter living in Creephia."

"The only ones who knew... were the two old ones from the Riddle family..."

"I confirmed what Hattie said to me. She told me that Daphne and Maddox had indeed known for a

long time that they had a granddaughter."

Christ looked at Selena's pale face, with an urge to stop her from speaking, but when the words came

to his lips, he couldn't say them, "Selena..."

Selena sneered, a trace of sadness appearing in her eyes, "If my mother had brought me back to the

Riddle family to visit my grandparents, then I should have been happy, joyful, because other than my

mother and a hypocritical father, I had no other relatives since I was young."

"If it was a happy thing, why did my mother want me to forget that memory?"

"How could I, a member of such a magnificent family like the Riddle family, appear in such a small and

dark place where I dare not even make a sound?"

"Why did my mother suddenly die of illness shortly after bringing me back to the Riddle family?"

A sharp and cold thing gradually appeared in Selena's eyes, "Tell me, Christ, where did you meet me

and what did I say to you?"

Christ looked at Selena with deep eyes, memories flooding back to that dark and lightless night many

years ago.

From the moment he stumbled and pushed open the door, to the little girl who fell out of the cabinet in

surprise, her voice crying out, as if a young kitten.

She trembled and groped her way over from the darkness and hugged him.

"Mommy..."
