The people downstairs were still busy, enjoying themselves hosted by Selena without realizing something strange was happening. People dressed in black entered the upper floor. They moved quickly and hid until they were not noticed by the guests.One stopped before Aldrich, standing while Selena was behind him, sitting with her head down. "Master, we will take care of this matter properly."Aldrich nodded. Jose, who was in front of him, immediately bowed and quickly passed from there to do the bidding of his master. And Aldrich himself had no doubt that Jose could solve this problem. Finally, he moved to look at the back to look at Selena. He watched for a few seconds. The woman was shaken after doing something right.When she raised her head, it was at the same time as the people dressed in black carrying the injured Agnes, who had lost consciousness. Selena's eyes trembled slightly. She just realized Aldrich was looking at her. Selena was like a child who felt guilty. She immediately
It had been an exhausting night, but that didn't make Selena immediately rest on her bed. Now, she was daydreaming on the veranda of her room. The nightgown she was wearing fluttered when the wind blew, but she didn't feel cold at all. Instead, she poured more Bourbon into her glass, took a sip, and then returned the glass.Aldrich wasn't with her, the man had said he was a little busy and asked Selena to rest soon, but this was what she did.Selena snorted slightly with a smirk on her lips. "You must have been working on the problem earlier." she had expected something like that because Aldrich didn't want the problem unattended. Jose had also come down to help, and this problem was not trivial.At the same time, in a different place and not too far from Selena, Aldrich was looking at his grandfather. The old man's face was exhausted, his eyes, once very shiny, now seemed slowly losing light."So Selena got attacked?" his voice sounded hoarse and weak. Because he slept more and did le
There was silence, the tension was palpable, but her eyes were as sharp as knives, ready to cut through anything. She had been standing there for a few minutes now, looking at the people in front of her, and one of them she recognized."You already know they're the culprits and have made up your mind when it comes to clearing out your attackers, Selena." He knew Selena's abilities and was up to date on her progress. He had given his wife another chance.In the mysterious Goldstein mansion, Aldrich was beside his wife, acting very happy. There were many guards, and they were guarding them inside and out.Selena began to walk, she circled around those who were bound and kneeling before her unable to move. Doing so was like playing with the mood of her prey, tapping sounds could be heard from the heels she was wearing and it made the situation even more tense. Every time the tapping sounded, it spurred their heartbeats."So I should finish them off?" just as Selena stopped walking she as
Women who love luxury would be happy to get this treatment from Aldrich. The man was now shopping for a lot of jewelry for Selena."You took it easier than before." Aldrich spoke, his hands still pointing at some of the gems he passed by to be wrapped.Walking in front of Aldrich, Selena stopped momentarily and looked at her husband. "Then I should reject it? You wouldn't accept that either, would you?" she resumed her walk, looking around this gem place which was indeed very beautiful. After all, she also knew what she was here for, he said he would make her happy by shopping.Selena finally stopped her footsteps at a jewelry store, she was fixated on the small earrings worn by the mannequin in front of her. Her hand raised, she pointed at the figure. "Take this one out, I want to wear it now."Unlike before, Selena wanted her own jewelry and was even wearing it now. The jewelry was a deep blood red, and as Selena put it on, she held the earring a few times while looking in the mirro
"Have you heard the news about that woman?" a man with a calm and polite demeanour was speaking. He was watching the man smoking a cigar in front of him.The man leaned back in the chair. He seemed to be looking at the ceiling of the room. The room was neat with dark shades, and the curtains covered the windows so that the sunlight did not enter into this room.His eyes glanced over, responding to the words of the man who had just appeared. "It is fate that she is related to that man." He fixed his sitting position now. His body looked more prominent than before. A wound near his left neck was visible when he looked at the man before her."Fate is so funny, it's like the past isn't it my brother?" he asked with a smile. He looked at the miniature portrait at the far end of the room and went back to smoking his cigar with a long breath.Elsewhere, the quiet atmosphere didn't make much difference. Selena was fixing the hat she was wearing. The round hat with wide sides almost flew off i
Selena had just gotten off the boat with Aldrich. The wind made Selena's hair flutter, and she tucked her hair into her ears. Her head moved slightly just now, looking to the side, and her best friend had also gotten off the boat she was riding with the man she liked. Selena looked at Kate. Differently, she was more centred on Aldrich, though as she approached, she touched her friend's shoulder. "I saw what he did to you, he was pretty crazy." Kate half-whispered to Selena, it made her face blush.Selena was embarrassed to hear her friend's words, but she didn't want to let go of her friend just like that. "So, did you get what I got from Jun?" Selena, with a satisfied smile, had managed to get her best friend to shut up.Now, her expression was flat, staring. Selena knew that her friend was deliberately attacking her again."You can act romantic, Aldrich." Jun finally arrived near them. She was happy with her friend's development. From a robot-like figure who could not show her feel
On a calm morning, a man with a firm jaw had gotten into a car escorted by several people dressed in black. He was seen sitting calmly in the car while holding a document on his lap.The document was no longer read. He just put it down after reading it a few minutes ago. Now, from his seat, he was watching the scenery of the Metro City. People seemed to be less busy in this more exclusive place in the city.He had only a few minutes ago come out of his family's heavily guarded and carefully calculated home area."She's still asleep," Aldrich muttered a little. He tapped his fingers a few times on his lap while watching the scene outside.The murmurs were clearly audible, but even though the driver heard them, he didn't dare to speak up.Aldrich had plans today to take care of some things. He couldn't wait for Selena, who was still asleep. He left first because he didn't want to wake his wife.They entered an area with more vehicles. Even in the morning in the Metro city, people were a
Aldrich moved quickly. The critical meetings she was previously going to have were all postponed due to this matter. People had been briefed by people on Aldrich's side if they were not going to meet with him.Inside the building, the length of it was traversed with rapid footsteps as everyone lowered their heads to maintain their stance because of the strong sense of tension. The atmosphere around them made it impossible for them to move freely.Aldrich entered the room, a darkly lit space that would not reveal anything from the outside.Aldrich sat down in his chair. He looked straight at the man in front of him. Waiting for a cue, Jose immediately explained the meaning of his previous words."Master, their attack tactics are also different from mercenary attacks. Master Aldrich, it seems that the people in the dark world are also engaged in the business we are doing or related to Madam Selena." Jose did a quick investigation because he often dealt with people who attacked his Maste
