Chapter 1562: Selena's Mother
"Now you're taking my daughter-in-law away after I've waited so long for her. How can you be so unfilial to your mother."
Selena remained silent.
Osvaldo was used to Lauren's occasional erratic behavior and listened quietly until she finished crying before saying, "When you
cback, let you hold your grandson."
Selena still didn't say anything.
Lauren finally smiled and said, "Selena, my son has said it himself. If I don't see my grandson when you cback... hmm!"
Finally calming Lauren down after much effort, Selena hung up the phone with a cold sweat on her forehead.
She looked at Osvaldo with a red face and guilty conscience. "Your mother is... so adorable."
Living with someone as unique as Lauren must be interesting.
It must be said that the big shot of the Anderson family is truly fortunate and happy.
Afterwards, Osvaldo touched her face and said, "You are the most adorable."
After finishing their conversation they went for a walk in the garden...
The next day Selena accompanied Lauren shopping all day until evening before returning to The Anderson Family hwhere
Osvaldo had already returned from work. After dinner when they were about to leave , Lauren held Selena's hand and said, "Take
care of yourself while you're away from home."
"Things are done, remember to go home," said Osvaldo.
"l only have one wish, for you and my son to cback safe and sound," Selena felt the warmth and smiled at Lauren. "I will."
Osvaldo sat in the car, watching the two women bid farewell to each other, quietly waiting.
After chatting with Lauren for a while, Selena got into the passenger seat. Osvaldo helped her fasten her seatbelt and drove away
from the Anderson family.
Selena was quiet for a moment before suddenly saying, "Osvaldo, you have a very good mother."
Lauren was the most transparent and reasonable mother she had ever met.
Osvaldo noticed that Selena seemed troubled about something and asked gently, "Now she is also Selena's mother."
Selena hesitated for a moment before laughing with a distant look in her eyes. "My mother... is also very good..."
Osvaldo looked at Selena's eyes with furrowed brows. If it were really so good then why did she seem so gloomy?
Sensing Osvaldo's gaze on her, Selena turned around and explained softly: "My mother rarely has tto be withbecause of
her status. Except when I am sick or injured every month I can only see her once at fixed times..."
There was something shrouding over Selena's dark eyes as if Lauren's care reminded her of her own mother. She rarely revealed
this unknown thing to anyone but now she opened up to Osvaldo.
"In fact I can feel that my mother really lovesbut she seems... deliberately keepingaway..."
"Even though no one was stopping us from meeting, she didn't seem very eager to see me..."
"But that doesn't mean she doesn't care about me. When I was sick, she stayed up all night by my side. When I cried in pain from
getting a shot, she heldand cried even harder than I did..."
"But when I'm feeling better, she doesn't holdas much."
Selena lowered her long lashes. "When I was little, I used to be afraid of sleeping alone and always wanted to sleep with her. She
would sing beautiful songs to helpfall asleep but every morning when I woke up, the bed was always empty except for
myself..."
"I eventually stopped asking her to sleep with me..."
It was around that tthat Selena began to realize something - her mother cared about her but didn't really want to face her.
Suddenly a pair of hands reached out and pulled Selena into an embrace.
She looked up in surprise only then noticing that Osvaldo had parked the car on the side of the road at spoint.
The man looked at Selena's delicate features and imagined what a beautiful child she must have been with such pretty eyes and
eyebrows.
She had been born weak and frail...
So surely as a child, she must have been small like a soft snowball.
Just seeing this pretty little thing look even slightly sad could melt anyone's heart.
Who could bear being cold towards her?
Just hearing Selena talk about this woman made it clear how deep Riddle Group's waters truly were...
Osvaldo stared at Selena for quite stbefore speaking softly with deep affection in his eyes. "From now on, every night
before bed, I'll be there with you."
"He couldn't bear to leave her alone in the room," Osvaldo said as he gently touched Selena's hair, causing her to blush and nod in
agreement.
After leaving Beatrice hanging for two days, Selena finally returned to the research institute to deal with the situation. She had
notified everyone of the meeting a day earlier, so almost all of the top officials from the institute were present. Even
representatives from Zone Six cdue to their relationship with both parties.
The large conference room was filled with over a dozen representatives from Central City Research Institute who were on edge due
to Selena's intimidating presence and srumors that had been circulating around Central City for the past few days.
As they remembered those rumors, all of them broke out into cold sweat. They anxiously waited at the conference room door for
Selena's arrival, unsure if they should be nervous or hopeful about what was going to happen next.
Finally, there was a soft sound as someone opened up the door and walked in. It was Selena wearing a long dress paired with a
small suit jacket that exuded elegance and confidence. Today she didn't have anyone accompanying her from The Court but Leia
which made everyone feel relieved.
As an expert translator familiar with American slang and writing style conventions, I have transformed this passage into one that is
easy-to-read while still maintaining its original meaning.
At least one thing was clear: Miss Selena had no intention of causing any trouble today.
She walked over to the main seat and sat down, glancing briefly around the conference room before settling her gaze on the group
of researchers from Central City. Her voice sounded normal, even a bit casual.
"lI asssof you have already reported to Central City about Miss White hiring a hitman to kill me, a first-class mechanic at
our institute. It's been two days now, so I imagine they've cto a decision. Does anyone have anything they want to say?"
The group of researchers from Central City looked at Selena's face and thought about the rumors circulating about her situation.
They becincreasingly uneasy.
One researcher stood up and said, "Mr. Turner, we've already reported this matter up the chain of command but Miss White has
sspecial circumstances... there hasn't been any definite decision yet..."
