Chapter 1191: Meeting Gift


    Chapter 1191: Meeting Gift


    The Anderson family, like the Turner family, had more sons than daughters in every generation. If the


    Anderson family had a daughter, Antonio wouldn''t have had to protect Penelope at all.


    Selena was brought back to her senses by Antonio''s words and temporarily put aside her doubts,


    continuing to scroll down with a smile.


    Newborns, ten-day-olds, one-month-olds... these beautiful little babies looked different every day,


    bing more delicate as they grew. The only thing that didn''t change much was their expression.


    Although such young children wouldn''t have any particrly noticeable expressions, their coldness


    was still evident.


    Selena stopped at a photo and asked, "When was this taken?"


    Antonio nced at the picture Selena had stopped at. It was a small figure made of snow jade, dressed


    in exquisite ck clothes and a ck cap, with a long face and long eyshes, and a pair of ck


    eyes that seemed to see through everything.


    The little guy sat on a nket, holding his arms and expressionless. Although his face was young and


    innocent, everyone could sense his contempt.


    "This was taken when he was one year old. His mother dressed him up a bit, but you see his


    expression? He looks like he''s owed a million dors by someone," Antonio said.


    "Was Osvaldo socking in childishness when he was young?" Selena asked, blinking.


    "He wasn''tcking in childishness, he didn''t have any!" Antonio said with a ck face. "Apart from


    crying when he was born, I never heard him shout once in his childhood!"


    "When he was three years old, he had a high fever in the middle of the night one winter. His mother


    went to wake him up in the morning, but he didn''t respond. Finally, his father went to lift his nket, and


    he just said calmly, ''I''m probably sick.'' Listen, can a child with a fever of 39 degrees say that?"


    Selena was speechless.


    She remembered when she was a child, even a small cut would make her cry and cause amotion


    in the whole family. She silently lowered her head.


    "On his fourth birthday, I bought him a Transformers model. Guess what he said to me?" Antonio


    seemed to recall something and his face grew even darker.

    "What did he say?" Selena was curious.


    "He looked at me disdainfully and said, ''Grandpa, you''re so childish.'' " Antonio raised his eyebrows in


    anger. "I''m so old, and I''m being called childish by a four-year-old brat."


    Selena remembered when she was ten years old, holding onto her mother''s neck and saying she


    wanted to be her good baby forever.


    She lowered her head and continued flipping through the album.


    It was like going through the footprints of Osvaldo''s growth, page by page, watching him go from a


    beautiful child to a handsome and cold young boy.


    Selena turned to another page and a picture suddenly caught her eye. She froze in ce, "This is...?"


    The picture showed a delicate and handsome young boy in ck clothes with ck hair, looking cold


    and indifferent.


    She frowned.


    Antonio looked over and sneered, "That''s him at the age of twelve, his mother took the photo. This kid


    nevercked love since he was a child, but somehow he''s be more and more ''heartless and


    unfeeling'' as he grows up..."


    Selena stared at the refined features of the young boy, feeling a faint sense of familiarity.


    Suddenly, a ripple stirred in a corner of her memory, and Selena eagerly turned to the next page, only


    to see a nk space.


    Disappointment rose in Selena''s heart, "Why is there nothing there?"


    Antonio grumbled, "After he turned twelve, he never let anyone take his picture again, not even his


    mother..."


    Selena frowned, "Why?"


    "I don''t know," Antonio exined, seeing Selena''s disappointment. "Maybe it had something to do with


    him being kidnapped that year..."


    Before Antonio could finish his sentence, Osvaldo suddenly walked in from outside and saw the album


    in Selena''s hands, "Selena, what are you doing?"


    Selena turned her head to the ck-haired man behind her, and in that moment, it was as if the young


    boy in the picture had suddenly grown up and appeared before her, vivid and handsome.


    Selena smiled, "I''m looking at Grandpa''s precious collection."


    Osvaldo could probably guess what it was, and he walked over expressionlessly, helping her up. "My


    mother is looking for you."


    Selena put down the album and obediently let him lead her away.


    Antonio looked at his grandson''s spineless look and raised his hand, but the butler walked up with a


    smile and handed a delicate antique box to Selena, "Madam Selena, this is from the old master for


    you."


    Selena didn''t refuse and took the box, "Thank you, Grandpa." Antonio waved his hand, signaling for


    them to leave.


    After Osvaldo left with Selena, Antonio sat in ce for a long time before sighing heavily, "This girl is


    also a ruthless person."


    No wonder, based on Osvaldo''s temperament, he was willing to indulge her. However, the more such a


    woman is, the less she can be let go. If anything happens in the future, the two will face off against


    each other, and there may be trouble.


    The butler advised, "Madam Selena has had a difficult background, and it''s inevitable that she may be


    a bit cold in her dealings with people." Antonio looked a bit disheartened, "I''m worried..."


    He was worried that Cassius'' tragedy would be repeated in Osvaldo.


    The butler smiled, "Master, you''re too attached to the situation. Although Madam Selena may be cold-


    hearted, precisely because of this, she''s willing to fulfill your wish for the young master. From this


    perspective, her dedication to the young master is even more valuable."


    Antonio immediately smiled and stroked his beard, "That little brat finally has someone who can control


    him..."


    After returning to her room, Selena opened the gift Antonio had given her. Looking at the thing lying at


    the bottom of the box, Selena couldn''t help but exim, "The old man''s really generous..."


    Leia looked curiously and peered over. On the pure ck maty a piece of jade. One side was white,


    crystal clear, and pure white, while the other side was green, transparent, and lustrous. The middle


    transition area was a very nice white-to-green gradient. It was actually a rare tricolor jade.


    Leia said with a smile, "The old man has a lot of treasures, Madam Selena doesn''t need to mind."


    Selena casually ced the thing on the dressing table and asked with a smile, "How has Penelope


    been behaving?"


    Leia pouted, "Since that beatingst time, that woman has been very docile and I haven''t noticed


    anything strange."


    Seeing Selena''s silence, Leia added, "But don''t worry, Madam Selena. Young master has specially put


    her in a heavy-duty prison..."
