Chapter 278


    “Oh? You think I love you?” Hades sneered. This is quite a good joke!


    “Of course. Do you not love me? If you truly have no feelings for me, why did you choose me from


    among so many people back then?” Linda was convinced that she’d be his woman sooner or


    later as long as she loved him as well.


    “Do you want to know the reason?”


    Linda nodded tremblingly. “Yes.”


    “Okay. I’ll grant your dying wish. Why did I choose you from among so many people? It was


    because I saw something in your gaze.”


    “What was it?”


    Then, Hades leaned down and whispered in her ear, “The desire to die. You were the one who


    desired to die most among them all, and only people who had lost all hope are of use to me.”


    At that moment, Linda could hear her heart shattering, and she stared at him speechlessly.


    Bang! A gunshot echoed in the castle.


    Meanwhile, Selena returned to the hospital. She’d asked Melissa and Joshua to take care of


    Juniper here since she went to cook for Hades. Standing by the door, she stared at Melissa and


    Joshua, the two ‘buddies’ who’d been with her through thick and thin. All of a sudden, incredulity


    flooded her. Who else can I trust when even Linda was a spy Hades nted by my side?


    Pushing open the door, she walked in. “Mel, Josh, thank you so much for today. I’m back, so you


    guys can go back and rest.”


    Upon hearing Selena’s voice, Melissa looked at her with a smile. Her ck clothes and pitch-ck


    pupils made her appear cool and unapproachable, but she was actually an affable girl who was


    merely pretending to be cool. “Actually, you didn’t have toe back so early. You could’ve spent a


    little more time getting to know him.” She blinked suggestively.

    Naturally, Selena understood her meaning, but still, she insisted that they leave. “You guys can go


    back. I can manage by myself.”


    At this time, Juniper was already asleep.


    “Okay, we’ll be leaving then.” Joshua inclined his head at Selena and wrapped an arm around


    Melissa’s shoulder before they walked out of the ward together.


    While they were walking, Melissa abruptly stopped. “I think there’s something amiss with Selena.”


    “What’s amiss? Are you just too sensitive?” Joshua chuckled nonchntly.


    “No. My intuition tells me that something must have happened between her and our boss.”


    Bringing Melissa’s hand up, Joshua kissed it lightly. “Darling, do you really think Selena will end up


    with our boss?”


    Melissa shook her head. “Our boss is too unpredictable, so no one knows what he’s actually


    thinking. Nheless, I feel that he really has feelings for Selena and truly wants to marry her.


    However, Selena probably loves someone else. Didn’t you gather that from Juniper’s remarks?”


    Joshua shrugged. “Whatever. We’d better not interfere in this. From the very beginning, we’d known


    that Selena wouldn’t stay forever, no?”


    Sighing, Melissa left with him.


    After that, Selena had her assistant from JNS Corporation bring herptop to the hospital. When


    she checked her email, she discovered that her email had indeed been tampered with. All the


    encrypted files she sent back to Hades had application codes added. After opening those codes,


    she slowly deciphered them, but in the next instance, she mmed the cover of herptop down.


    This is simply too much! Pierre Fowler is actually… She couldn’t quite believe it, yet she had no


    choice but to do so. Perhaps I now know why he refuses to marry me.


    That entire night, she couldn’t sleep, for her mind was filled with thoughts of Pierre. It was as though


    her row with him the night before she left had only happened on the previous day. They pointed


    fingers and suspected each other, so that was the most torturous night to her.
