One day passed, and the party was extraordinary not only because of its extravagance but also because the news inside was terrific and shocked the guests.It became the talk of the town, and people were shocked that they had never expected it. Some people who had experienced Aldrich's incredible power regretted what they had done and understood why they were powerless to do anything about it.Selena's position also counted for a lot because she was the wife of the most influential person, who possessed great power. Now that Selena was enjoying her tea with her husband, the atmosphere was calm, and there was no hiding that Selena had a lot on her mind."There are a lot of people contacting me, and most of them I block," says Selena. She didn't hide her annoyance but still looked calm and drank her tea."Good. They're not beneficial and just a nuisance, don't forget what they've done." Aldrich spoke coldly, he placed something in the hand of the servant from beside him. A pen was used e
Selena was calm. She gave a smile with no meaning at all. "Yes, Mr. Ludwig. You must know who I am. What is the need?" Selena asked calmly, she showed an attitude that made Ludwig quite surprised by her actions.The woman who came from the city of Meldham could be this calm. Very unexpected."I didn't expect you to be such an elegant woman." Ludwig smiled, but it didn't comfort Selena at all.Selena was watching him with calm eyes. Ludwig finally spoke again to explain something else to the woman before him. "You could also say that I am your husband's brother." The words were so clear that Selena was silent, watching the man before her. She did not expect that this handsome man also had a relationship with Aldrich.Just as she was surprised, Aldrich appeared; he walked calmly and now and stopped between them. His expression, as usual, made it difficult to guess what he was thinking."Even if we are cousins, we have no relationship at all."That statement did not take away the smile o
In the dining room, the cold atmosphere with tension felt so strong in my body. Dealing with people who had a prominent position was a difficult thing to overcome, even though she had tried. Aldrich and, by default, Cedric, since both of them were people with minimal expression and minimal speech, Selena should be able to deal with Cedric efficiently. However, it was different because they were not used to being together."Do you like dinner here, Selena? Do they cook to your taste?" Cedric wiped his mouth with the napkin there, looking straight at the woman who had become his grandson's wife."I like it very much, Grandfather. The chefs here really have an amazing ability to cook food."Selena gave a sincere smile, Cedric nodded and continued eating. Selena looked relieved that the powerful man seemed to accept her answer quickly.As for Aldrich, he was enjoying his meal well. What sounds were rarely heard in this dining room, and when Selena and Aldrich stood together, they faced C
They finished the drink in the glass, Since this was not to intoxicate themselves, they were only limited to completing the drink that Aldrich had poured.As her husband said, it was confirmed that the alcohol content of the drink she was drinking now was so high that she was already dizzy.She needed help from her husband to get to her bed, and after that, she flung herself onto the bed and fell into a deep sleep. Aldrich noticed Selena after he had covered her up to her neckline."You look like a baby." he was stunned by Selena's beauty, and for those few seconds, he enjoyed the beautiful sight. Then, after that, he let his wife enjoy her sleep.Before anyone woke up, Aldrich was already very busy with much work, which he often did. There were many files in his office, and he had managed to finish them while having a drink to warm up his body."Is everything alright, Jose?" Aldrich knew that the person who had just entered was Jose without needing to see him because of the distincti
They had finished their business. Selena had been quite content to watch her servant Yesi get the best care from her husband, and now the two of them walked to leave this hospital."Aldrich, yesterday I was very rude to you, I was overthinking in such a gentle way."Aldrich was listening, but he was still walking, so Selena spoke again. "You must be having a hard time protecting me too, especially now that I know the Goldstein family members often get threats that are dangerous to their lives.""That's right. You need to be firm, you need to be nonchalant and disregard other people's lives just for yourself."Aldrich said coldly, opening the car door to let Selena enter first. After Selena got in, they both looked at each other."I know it's a difficult thing but maybe that doesn't mean I can't do it."Aldrich smiled blandly. "I don't know. We'll see."He closed Selena's car door, then quickly got into his place, immediately started the car engine, and without waiting for anything, he
They had finished their meal and went out to do other things. As Jun looked at Aldrich, he still wished that their relationship was closer than it was now. But it seemed that he was the only one who thought that way. Now, he stopped his footsteps to stop the two people before her from stepping out."Soon my family will be having a party, I will invite you."Jun watched his friend, he looked calm, but Jun knew what Aldrich was about to say.His eyes flashed. "I don't know if I will come or not. You know I'm a busy person."Jun smiled wryly, he already knew that, so he wasn't too disappointed with his friend's statement.Selena, who was listening earlier, now replied. "I could have come if I wasn't busy, if Aldrich can't come I'll go alone."Although Jun was the one who often lied to him to cover up secrets from Aldrich, he thought Jun was a good person. She understood some of the work issues because she was taught by Jun, and she also believed that Jun was an excellent mentor and a goo
He had made the mistake of feeling proud only of himself, he forgot about their relationship not being close. Now, his car was just parked in front of the house, and irritably, he went straight into the house, which made the sound of the door closing violently.A servant standing nearby was surprised, he got a glare from Noah that immediately made him look down. Hoping that it would ease his master's anger, but Noah was having an emotional outburst, so he behaved utterly out of control, who approached the servant and gave him a hard slap on the head."Aaa! I'm sorry, sir!"Her body staggered and fell straight to the floor, but she was still able to apologize to the man, not wanting to get into any danger for himself later. She knew if she fought back and screamed in pain, she would get even worse than this."You're such a bitch!" Noah shouted loudly. Raya and Calios, who were nearby, heard them in surprise and went straight to the source of the sound. They saw their grandson scolding
"You spent a nice time with your grandparents on the phone." Aldrich spoke as he noticed Selena sitting beside him.The woman sat quietly and relaxed there, little movement happening.Selena took a breath and then spoke. "Grandpa apologized for what Noah did, I explained that it wasn't a problem. He said that you said the same thing to me." She gave her man a gentle smile. She hoped that this matter would not widen and make things worse."It wasn't your grandfather's fault, and it's right that it's your cousin who should take the blame."Selena nodded in agreement, in the short time she had met her cousin, she had come to many conclusions about how annoying her cousin was. Suddenly, Selena held Aldrich's hand, the size of their hands was different, which made Selena more comfortable with her husband. This fits the situation, Aldrich as the person she often relied on."That's why I'm grateful to you, you're being so kind to my family."Aldrich observed Selena; this woman looked so happ
