Revenge On Love Rats After Rebirth by Olivia Marsh novel Chapter 323

Chapter 323 No One Can Take Her from Selena

Selena knew what Luke said was true.

But...

Selena took the car key from the table and stepped outside the office.

Luke frowned at seeing the disappointment on her face.

"Lady Selena, you are Lady Hattie's sister, and also Osvaldo's wife. It's reasonable that you protect her in the name of the Walson family.

Osvaldo didn't need to remain anonymous when saving someone.

But if so, all noble families in capital would know that Nevaeh Riddle's daughter had been married to the Walson family.

Big trouble could follow then.

No one knew better than Selena how cruel fights for powers could be. Once one got involved, he could hardly stay out of this again.

Selena snapped her fingers as a reply to his words, and then walked into the lift.

In the meantime, a lift near Selena came to a halt with a loud 'ding'. A man walked out of it, brushing past Selena.

Luke was struck stunned by the man with a chiseled face, glamour and grace. It was Leon Selena had met at Blueberry Night.

Meeting Luke's stunned eyes, Leon smiled, but his tone was cold, "Why is Master Luke so surprised seeing me?"

Luke collected himself and returned to a unrestrained look, "I didn't expect that Master Leon would come to the small Creephia."

He also had doubts in his mind.

Selena had just said that the Riddle family would send someone to come, and Leon arrived right at this time. Had Selena already met Leon?

Luke asked his assistant to serve tea and turned to walk towards the office.

With his hands in his trouser pockets, Leon followed and walked in.

Inside the quiet and spacious office, Leon looked at Luke and said coldly, "I won't beat around the bush with you. Where is Hattie?"

Luke poured himself a glass of wine, his tone unhurried, "What you want to ask about... is just Lady Hattie?"

A hint of something flickered in Leon's eyes. Leon stared intently into Luke's eyes as he asked rhetorically, "Hattie excepted, who else should I ask?"

Luke didn't know why, but he suddenly felt a little sad for Selena.

Obviously, like Hattie, she was also a member of the Riddle family, but they were treated vastly differently.

But if the Riddle family had cared for her a little, Selena would not have had such a difficult time in the past ten years.

Luke smiled coldly, "No, it had taken so long for you guys to ask. I thought you didn't care if she is dead or alive."

Whether the Riddle family didn't care or they simply didn't know about Selena's existence, it didn't matter.

Selena was now Osvaldo's wife, and no one was qualified to steal someone from that man.

Leon was silent for a moment before he said lightly, "I'll take note of the favour you did in saving her. Bring her to me and I'll take her back to capital."

Luke smiled, "I'm afraid I can't."

Leon's gaze began to grow cold, "Oh?"

"The one who saved her was not me. She didn't want to hand Hattie over. No one could take Hattie from her."

Apart from the fact that Selena herself couldn't be messed around, even Osvaldo alone could make Leon perish the thought, even though he was Hattie's brother.

Leon had obviously prepared himself mentally before he came, "What does she want?"

And that woman... Did she really think that the Riddle family was a place where she could override the law with impunity?

Leon's gaze was cold to the core as he rose and walked out.

It was clear that it was not possible to get down to business here with Luke.

He had to go to the man who had suddenly gone out of his way to do a good deed.

After giving Leon a flat refusal, Luke picked up his mobile phone and called Osvaldo.

"Leon has come to Creephia."

Osvaldo replied, "Got it," and hung up the phone.

...

Selena drove back to the castle.

Hattie was practising a martial-art squat in the garden in a snow-white practice uniform, holding her head high, her dark eyes full of toughness, looking like a china figurine.

Selena remembered that Hattie had just started junior high school, when she should have been the most carefree, but she was burdened with hatred early.

Sensing Selena's gaze, Hattie looked up and saw Selena. A smile appeared on the girl's cold face.

She slowly stood up straight and darted over, "Selena, you're back."

Selena smiled and wiped the sweat on her forehead with a handkerchief, "You've worked hard."

Hattie shook her head, and said, "Master said I have made rapid progress."

Selena took her hand and led Hattie slowly towards the inside of the hall.
