Chapter 864 Is Callum Still Alive?
Chapter 864 Is Callum still alive?
Seeing Leah''s silence, Selena''s patience gradually wore thin. She lifted her chin and coldly reminded,
"The award ceremony is about to start. This is yourst chance!"
Leah was provoked by Selena''s condescending attitude and finally freed herself from the fear of facing
Osvaldo. But thinking back to the painful experience of falling down the stairsst time, she dared not
continue to provoke Selena in front of the man.
With a crazed look, she stared at Selena and hissed, "Selena, your father is still alive! If you want to
know his whereabouts, do as I say!"
Selena''s expression suddenly changed, and she stared at Leah''s eyes. For a moment, her usually
calm and indifferent face showed signs of cracking.
Is Callum still alive?
Selena''s thoughts were momentarily chaotic. But... upon careful consideration, it did not seem entirely
impossible.
Everyone said Callum was dead, but no one had ever seen his body, nor could they exin the cause
of his death. If that man could survive in Arcticboratory, then why not in the underground city?
If he''s still alive... why hasn''t hee back home for so many years?
Selena''s heart trembled and she stared at Leah, her voice bone-chillingly cold, "Why should I believe
you?"
Leah sneered, "Because he''s in David''s hands. You can go ask your boyfriend. He might know but just
didn''t tell you."
She stared at Selena with a pitying yet arrogant look, "Selena, I pity you, being raised by men to be so
foolish and ignorant..."
"David hates Nevaeh, this is not a secret in the circles of the capital''s older generation. Because
Nevaeh killed his beloved woman, and the Anderson family men are notoriously obsessed with love.
David would love to torture Nevaeh in any way possible. How could he let you win the championship
and help Nevaeh clear his name?"
Leah grinned proudly, "If it weren''t for this reason, how could someone like me catch David''s eye? And
how could I step on people like your father and get everything I want? It''s all thanks to you and your
mother..."
Thest sentence was nauseatingly obvious in its attempt to tter Selena. And David used Callum to
let Leah, a despicable and malicious thief, openly threaten Selena, attempting to seize the
championship of the perfumepetition and defile Nevaeh. It was utterly disgusting.
The chill on Selena''s face grew heavier. With only two minutes left, Leah was afraid that Osvaldo would
hands. Think carefully before you speakter!"
After speaking, she looked nervously towards the door and hurriedly hid in the booth.
As soon as Leah entered the booth, Osvaldo walked in. His expression was unchanged, and his eerie
and bottomless eyes carried Selena out of the restroom.
Selena quietly hung her head, and the skin visible outside her clothes was so pale that it was almost
bloodless.
Osvaldo held Selena and turned a corner, arriving at the VIP room on the second floor. He put her on
the windowsill and looked at her, lowering his gaze.
The expression on Selena''s face was one that he had never seen before: confusion.
Obviously, her inner emotions were not as calm as her outer appearance. Or, Selena was sessfully
hitting a soft spot, making her look vulnerable for the first time.
Even at the moment when Selena learned about the Turner family''s massacre, she did not show this
indescribable, sad emotion.
Osvaldo fluttered his ck butterfly-like eyshes and aching emotions poured out of his heart. He
raised his hand and touched her eyes with his slender fingers. The expression on his face was
indescribable, whether it was gentle or obsessive. "... Selena, you--"
Suddenly, two ice-cold hands gripped his wrist. Osvaldo''s gaze suddenly froze, falling on his right wrist.
Selena tightly held onto him, and the bandages on his wrist, which were wrapped tightly before, split
open, and the bright red blood seeped out, staining Selena''s tender skin.
But she didn''t seem to notice.
A terrifying shadow fell over Osvaldo''s eyes, and a cold and dark feeling crept up in his heart. Selena
raised her hand to rub her temples, as if trying to suppress her emotions and calm herself down. Her
voice was slightly hoarse as she asked, "Can I... ask you a question?"
Osvaldo shifted his gaze from the bloodstained area to Selena''s face. He looked at her pale face with a
gentle voice, shrouded in a terrifying shadow, "I won''t hurt you, ever."
Selena smiled and looked up at him, her face pale and expression somewhat wooden.
"Is my father really still alive?"
Osvaldo carefully freed his hands from hers, wrapped his arms around her, and gave a positive answer,
"Yes!"
Selena buried her face in his chest and said softly, "That''s great."
The person who should be alive is still alive.
When Osvaldo heard her words, panic surged in his heart.
Selena cared so much about the Turner family. Upon hearing the news that Callum might still be alive,
she should have rxed, been happy, and then confidently gone to find Callum.
But even though she said "that''s great," her emotions did not improve in the slightest.
Osvaldo pinched Selena''s chin and lifted her face, his gaze sticking to her face, carefully examining
Selena''s expression.
Selena looked at him in confusion. She looked like a lost and helpless child whose parents were
missing.
A kind of loss of control gradually overwhelmed Osvaldo, his voice cold as ice, "Do you have any other
questions to ask me besides this?"
Selena looked even more confused, seeming not to understand the meaning behind Osvaldo''s words.
"What?"
Osvaldo''s expression on his face was momentarily cold as if he were wearing a divine mask.
Besides the question about Callum, what did David ask that woman to say to her?
The unexpected development made Osvaldo''s heart uncontrobly violent. He leaned in and kissed
Selena''s face, "Selena, what are you thinking about?"
His gentle breath slipped across her cheek, carrying a softness that coaxed a child...Belongs to N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
