Chapter 691 The Truth Revealed


    Chapter 691 The Truth Revealed


    Selena''s eyebrows raised, "Why?"


    At this moment, she realized that this was a very important question.


    With so many noble daughters in the capital, given Osvaldo''s family background, he can have any kind


    of marriage partner.


    Why Isabel, of all people?


    What exactly does Isabel have that is worth the attention of Antonio?


    Selena''s cold gaze shot sharply towards Isabel.


    How can a woman with such a cruel heart, and who is also an illegitimate daughter of a noble family,


    be deserving of Antonio''s attention?


    He even resorted to forcing his grandson to marry her, even if it meant his own death...


    Isabel realized what Osvaldo was going to say. She lifted her hands to cover her ears and screamed,


    "Ah! Don''t say it!! Don''t say it!!"


    She looked up at Christ in terror, forgetting to even cry, "Brother, don''t listen to Selena''s nonsense!


    She''s lying about me! The red jadeite is mine! Mine!!!"


    She crawled to Christ''s feet, her face pale, and reached out to grab the red jadeite, hoping to clutch


    onto thest straw of salvation.


    However, another hand had already picked up the red jadeite before she could. Isabel touched air, her


    face turning pale as she looked up at the man in front of her who held the red jadeite gently and looked


    at it lovingly. His voice was gentle, but it made her shiver.


    "Is she lying or not? I won''t know until I hear it, right?"


    Isabel had never heard Christ speak so gently before, but it made her feel like her soul was freezing.


    She stared nkly at the man''s eyes, which were faintly tinged with blood, and only now did she


    realize that his arrival at this moment was not redemption for her, but a disaster that could destroy her!


    Isabel''s face turned pale, her eyes full of fear as if they were about to burst out of their sockets. She


    weakly screamed, "No, brother, believe me, it''s mine! It''s mine! I''ve been with you for over ten years...


    Selena killed Edwin!"


    Suddenly, she seemed to remember something and pointed at Selena. Her swollen mouth was


    bleeding and drooling mixed together, and she said in a crazy tone, "Brother, Selena killed the two


    bodyguards you sent me and kidnapped me here just to steal my ruby! She deserves to die! This


    woman deserves to die!"


    Selena''s eyes flickered with anger, and she was about to get up and teach the woman a lesson, but


    Osvaldo hugged her waist first.


    Selena said coldly, "She--"


    Osvaldo gentlyforted Selena, who had a bad expression, and smiled, "You''re injured and can''t


    aggravate your injuries for that woman."


    Most importantly, he couldn''t let her get close to Christ.


    Why Christ doted on Isabel so much was unknown to others, but he knew.


    He had always coveted Selena, and now that he knew the truth, he would only be more ruthless.


    Osvaldo''s expression was weak, but in an instant, he became cruel.


    Selena bit her lip and said, "But--"


    Osvaldo rubbed her forehead and said, "Listen to me."


    Every time Osvaldo spoke to her in this tone, Selena seemed unable to find a reason to refuse.


    She was like a puppet held by him, with a cold face, looking at Isabel, waiting for Christ toe to her.


    ording to the man''s indulgence of Isabel, perhaps he would really believe what Isabel said before


    seeing the body.


    But the development of the situation seemed somewhat unexpected.


    Christ finally moved his gaze away from the ruby. He lowered his eyes, pinched Isabel''s chin, and


    smiled. Although he was smiling, he couldn''t hide his cold aura. "Oh?"


    Isabel trembled all over, her teeth chattering with fear.


    She regretted killing those two people.


    If she hadn''t listened to Leah''s instigation, she would have been sent abroad by now, and when she


    arrived there, she might still have a chance to escape.


    Or if she hadn''t killed those two people, she wouldn''t have to worry about Christing to settle


    ounts with her.


    It seemed that no matter which choice she made, it would be better than facing the unpredictable Christ


    at this moment.


    But she had done both things, and had long lost the right to regret. At this moment, all she could do


    was to desperately bite Selena.


    As long as Selena cannot produce the red jade as her evidence, then she still has a chance!


    Isabel gasped for breath, clutching Christ''s leg and crying pitifully. She shook her head and said,


    "Brother, you have to believe me. Selena hates me, she nders me, and she has tried to kill me three


    times. She wants to send me to death..."


    Christ chuckled lightly, and the hand that was pinching her chin exerted more force. "Oh? Then why did


    you still want her to die, despite my repeated warnings and the fact that she had already crippled and


    disfigured you?"


    Isabel stiffened. Her face turned deathly pale, her lips trembling, but she couldn''t find a reason to refute


    him no matter how hard she tried.


    But she still refused to give up and continued to shake her head, gritting her teeth and saying, "Brother,


    you have to believe me. It''s Selena''s fault, everything is her fault! If she had never appeared, none of


    this would have happened! I''m still your obedient and cute little sister, I would never have be like


    this..."


    Finally, she cried out in a voice full of grievance, "Selena destroyed everything I had! She owes me an


    apology!"


    Christ''s eyes grew sharper and sharper, and it seemed like he was on the verge of losing control in his


    rage."


    Selena looked at this scene unexpectedly. She never thought that before she could do anything to


    Isabel, the ''siblings'' on the opposite side would start infighting.


    She was not interested in the affairs between Christ and Isabel, so she grabbed Osvaldo''s hand and


    said, "You haven''t told me yet, what is the story behind the Anderson family''s engagement?"


    As Isabel stared at her with hatred, Osvaldo gently stroked Selena''s hair and said, "Grandfather once


    received a favor from someone who saved his life. He didn''t know the person''s identity, but he knew


    that the person had a very precious red jade...''"


    Selena widened her eyes and looked at Isabel with a cold gaze.


    Isabel trembled uncontrobly, but she still vehemently denied, "The red jade is mine! The Anderson


    family''s engagement was originally mine! Selena, you can''t just make up lies and take away my


    things!"


    Selena''s eyes turned icy. ording to Osvaldo''s words, the girl who truly had the engagement with him


    should be Selena.


    If it weren''t for Isabel, Selena would have had the Anderson family''s support. Even if Osvaldo didn''t like

    her, he would have protected her.


    Selena wouldn''t have died so tragically!


    The same engagement, when it fell on Isabel, only made her feel disgusted, but if it had been that


    innocent and kind Selena...
