Chapter 1694: Anything Else Is Fine, Except For Him.


    Chapter 1694: Anything else is fine, except for him.


    No matter if it was Osvaldo or Stanley, or even anyone who knew these two girls, they would never


    mistake them for each other. Even if they looked exactly the same.


    She was her own person, Selena was Selena, and they werepletely different individuals.


    Selena heard Stanley''s affirmation and looked up at him. "I''m not like Selena, am I?"


    "Yes," Stanley smiled. "You''re both unique individuals."


    Especially for him, the girl in front of him was the most unique individual. No one could rece her.


    Selena let out a small sigh of relief and smiled. "Thank you, Stanley."


    She turned to walk into the room. "I''ll call the Turner familyter."

    With Stanley and Osvaldo here as well as her parents back in her hometown, she still had some sense


    of security.


    But for Selena who had just barely escaped death and found herself stranded in a foreignnd with


    nothing left to lose - that fear was much greater.


    At this moment though, Selena felt grateful that she didn''t take away someone else''s real family from


    them.


    Stanley watched as she walked away step by step before finally lowering his gaze after a long while.


    Selena returned to the room only to find another girl who looked exactly like her - belonging to the


    Turner family - staring back at her face-to-face like looking into a mirror.


    The only difference between them was their expressions.


    Selena looked at the young girl opposite her, who seemed lost and unsure. Just as Selena was about


    to speak, the other Selena spoke first. She had a clear look of unease and guilt in her eyes.


    "I''m sorry I woke up toote," she said. "If I had woken up earlier, maybe Stanley wouldn''t have lost his


    lovepletely. And maybe you could have gone home earlier."


    Selena lowered her gaze and spoke softly, "I didn''t do well enough either..."


    Although not good at scheming or maniption, Selena knew that if she could exude a queen-like aura


    and sense of responsibility, revenge would be much easier for her.


    As she looked at the girl across from her, some strange emotions in Selena''s heart suddenly


    dissipated.


    She hadn''t done anything wrong.


    She smiled slightly and said reassuringly, "Don''t be nervous; no one will me you."


    "I''m sorry I can''t take you home right away," Selena continued speaking with increasingly soft emotions


    in her heart.


    There was a look of surprise in her eyes - someone who looked exactly like herself existed in this


    world! They weren''t even sisters!


    What''s more fortunate is that this person is a kind-hearted girl with pure intentions - everything missing


    from herself seems to be concentrated within this girl.


    Selena lifted her clear eyes slowly at the sound of her words. "I...," she began.


    A small smile yed on Selena''s lips as she spoke again. "I''ll notify your family shortly, and while I


    can''t send you home just yet, you can contact them." She paused before continuing, "As for your father


    and mother''s situation, they will tell you."


    Those matters should be told to Selena by her own family.


    The situation in Beijing hade to aplete end.


    With the Turner family protecting Selena as she returned home now, there would be no more danger.


    Once Selena understood her own predicament, she began to think about it further.


    The Turner family''s daughter was still alive and using her body. That meant that the Empress was not


    dead after all!


    If Selena were to appear now, Lillian could never ascend the throne in this lifetime.


    In fact, with Selena''s existence alone, Lillian could bepletely exposed for regicide!


    The Empress herself had convicted Lillian and with support from both of their parents lost as a


    protective umbre; it would be difficult for Lillian to turn things around now that she had lost the only


    heirship protection avable to her.


    As for matters concerning bloodline inheritance - those could only wait untilter.


    At this moment though - Selena felt grateful that she shared an identical appearance with the original


    Selena.


    All it would take is one appearance from her - and punishing Lillian could easily be something


    within reach of just one hand.


    Lillian couldn''t keep demanding a paternity test and questioning if the person sitting on the throne was


    really the queen herself, could she?


    Selena pondered her next move, not noticing the unease in Stanley''s eyes as he stared at her.


    She looked up and saw Stanley across from her, his gaze fixed on Selena as if he couldn''t see


    anything else. There was a deep love in his eyes that seemed to suggest losing this girl would be like a


    fish out of water dying.


    Selena struggled to suppress her guilt and spoke hesitantly to Selena. "I heard you got engaged to my


    fiancé..."


    Selena''s thoughts were focused solely on the Turner family; she hadn''t even considered Osvaldo until


    now when she heard this girl mention him. She realized that being alive meant Osvaldo had been taken


    away from this girl''s hands...


    She hadn''t taken away any of her rtives, but she had stolen her fiancé.


    Selena looked at Selena and said with difficulty, "Can you... give him back to me?"


    "No..." Without thinking twice about it, Selena refused. "He is mine..."


    Although Selena didn''t have memories from when she was five years old, afterst night, she knew


    that it was her who first met Osvaldo. That man was the knight she had dreamed of since childhood.


    He even promised to confess his love to her. So... that man belonged to her...


    Selena felt a pang in her heart as she saw the panic and confusion in the other girl''s eyes. But when


    she thought of the pain of unrequited love and losing someone dear from a young age, as well as the


    agony of loving someone but not being able to be with them... she forced herself to speak up.


    "No, he should belong to me. Don''t you remember?" Selena said stiffly.


    "It''s not... he belongs to me..." The other girl replied.


    Stanley put his hand on Selena''s shoulder and looked at her deeply. "Your Highness, Miss Selena has


    already lost too much in life. You can''t take away what little happiness she has left; it wouldn''t be fair for


    her."


    Stanley knew exactly where Selena''s weaknessy - despite being pure-hearted and kind-natured,


    guilt and responsibility were what bound her most tightly.


    Her strong sense of morality would never allow herself to be a despicable third party.


    "... He doesn''t like you," Selena said bluntly as she looked at the pale-faced girl across from them.


    Taking a deep breath, Selena spoke softly: "Would you build your own happiness on top of someone


    else''s pain?"


    "I have never owned anything that belonged to you. Can you give me back everything that is mine?"
