novelxo Chapter 1543 Leaving
Chapter 1543 Leaving Selena lowered her long lashes, her eyes fixed on the ring held high by Osvaldo. As she was about to speak, a sudden burst of excited screams erupted from the crowd.
"Marry him! Marry him!!" "Selena, say yes, say yes!!" "With those two beautiful faces, not getting married would be a crime!!" Selena thought back to the opposition she had heard earlier and compared it to the present moment. Her smile beceven sweeter.
Her boyfriend was truly capable of anything...
Blushing, Selena smiled, her clear and melodious voice ringing out through the room. "Okay." She moved the fan that was blocking her face and revealed her stunningly beautiful features to Osvaldo.
Osvaldo's deep black eyes suddenly brightened. He took Selena'’s delicate hand and devoutly slid the ring onto her slender ring finger. Then, he stood up, embraced Selena, and lowered his head to kiss her crimson lips.
Everything happened so naturally and smoothly that many people didn't even react until it was over. After coming back to their senses, the sky-high screams nearly toppled the roof.
In a cool and elegant villa, a man sat on the balcony, his gaze fixed on the Turner family's direction. "The engagement banquet should be over by now, right?" The person standing beside him glanced at the setting sun and replied softly, "Yes, the engagement banquet went smoothly, and Miss has a fiancé now." A hint of desolation appeared in the man's eyes. After a moment, a smile formed at the corners of his lips.
Having a fiancé meant having someone to rely on. Even without him, that man would still love and protect her...
She would no longer have to go through the painful death she had experienced before.
"Also, there's one more thing..." The man hesitated for a moment before speaking up. "Young Master, that person has arrived." The man was taken aback, a glimmer of light flashing in his eyes. "How could it be so fast?" Selena's news had only spread through the Empire this morning. Even if the other party was fast, it was impossible for them to arrive in the capital on the sday.
Something unexpected must have happened in between.
But now was clearly not the tto investigate.
The man gazed in the direction of the Turner family mansion, his face pale and indifferent. "Where is he?" "Just got off the plane,” the subordinate's voice had an indescribable meaning. "After all, he is Miss"... Should we notify Mr.
Anderson?" "No need," the man shook his head, his pitch-black calm eyes deep and misty. "Since he's here, no one can make him leave.
This is for the best." After all, whether it was him or Osvaldo, no matter how fierce their competition was, they could not harm Selena.
The Empire already knew about Selena's news and the crisis she would face was unimaginable. In a situation where he couldn't openly protect her, the arrival of that person at this moment was a good thing for Selena's safety.
Finally, the man looked in the direction of the Turner family mansion, cut off the attachment and reluctance in his heart, and stood up slowly. "Let's go." His slender figure turned and blended into the dusk.
The purpose of his stay here was to see Selena's engagement with his own eyes. Now that his wish has been fulfilled, Selena has a good protection network, and it is tto leave.
The subordinate breathed a sigh of relief instantly. The master's body had long been pushed to its limit, and if he didn't go back now, anything could happen at any time.
Inside the Turner family mansion, as Selena was being led by Osvaldo to toast the elders, she suddenly froze.
She unconsciously turned her head and looked in the direction of the villa.
A feeling of emptiness and discomfort rose in her heart, as if something important was drifting away from her.
She didn't know that the only person in the world connected to her by blood was getting farther and farther away from her tonight.
A slender hand gently stroked her hair, and Osvaldo's voice was full of love and comfort. "What's wrong?" Selena's eyelashes trembled, but she didn't know how to explain. "I..." Osvaldo looked at her bewildered and lost eyes, and his brow furrowed.
He informed Lady Lauren and took Selena's hand, leading her out of the hall.
In the quiet garden, Osvaldo's gaze traveled down from Selena's face and fell on the location of her heart, placing his slender fingers there. "Does it hurt here?" Selena cback to her senses, looking into the man's concerned eyes and unconsciously said, "Osvaldo, I want to go there..." Osvaldo softly asked, "Where?" Selena unconsciously looked in the direction of the villa.
Osvaldo looked at her red wedding dress in silence for a moment, then took Selena and got into the car, arriving at the villa.
By now, it was completely dark.
The empty villa was located in the darkness, making it even more desolate.
Clementine and the others were ordered to keep watch in the shadows. When they saw Selena cand go, they immediately cout and respectfully said, "Miss, we have been watching and have not found anything unusual.” Selena's command was for them to secretly protect the person inside.
She had just completely uprooted the power of "Divine Love" in the capital, and the people inside had special identities, making it difficult to ensure that they would not be implicated.
Seeing Selena’s concern for that person, they stayed there without leaving.
However, there was no joy on Selena's face. Her gaze fell on the villa, and it was impossible to tell what she was thinking.
Osvaldo led her to the front gate, and just as Selena hesitated to ring the doorbell, Osvaldo pushed the door open and walked in.
Selena was stunned. Why wasn't the door locked? The beautiful courtyard was very quiet.
The night breeze carried the scent of roses, occupying the entire courtyard.
Selena unconsciously followed Osvaldo into the empty hall, where there was no one.
In a moment, the hollow sense of loss in Selena's heart reached its peak.
She searched the first floor but didn't see anyone.
She held onto the staircase railing and went up to the second floor, arriving at the room where she had seen the man before. But there was still nothing inside.
She refused to give up and searched each room one by one, but ultimately found nothing.
Selena's expression was somewhat unexpected, yet also seemed to be within expectations.
She lowered her head, her eyes heavy with disappointment and sadness.
So he really had left.
What a pity. She hadn't even asked for the man's name. He had promised her that if they had the chance to meet again, he would tell her his name.
Just as Selena was feeling disheartened, Osvaldo suddenly walked out of the man's bedroom and handed something to her, his voice very light. "Selena, this should be something he left for you." Selena looked at the object in Osvaldo's palm and was momentarily stunned.
