After the confrontation, Manuel and his group returned to their table. Timothy couldn't wait to ask, "What's this about running into Selina again? You didn't do anything too rash, did you? Mr. Weber was there, and we can't afford to offend them!"
Manuel shook his head. T'm fine, Timothy. I won't give Selina any more chances to hurt me."
At this point, Ashley piped up. "Manuel, this is so odd. Just now. Selina claimed she designed that bracelet... Since when did she become a designer in the Harvey family?"
Ashley's question made Manuel fall silent, remembering the bracelet's design had a distinct Angel style. Timothy scoffed, "Her? Knowing design? A country bumpkin who didn't even graduate middle school. No way she knows design. She probably just doodled something"
Ashley argued, "But Timothy, what she drew was really pretty..."
"Those are stolen designs that she flaunts to satisfy her vanity and show off to her friends after cozying up to Trevon to gain. his favor," Timothy speculated with satisfaction. Ashley shook Timothy's arm, "Don't say that, Timothy: Selina isn't that kind of person. I know her well... she's Ashley's sister, after all."
"Ashley, You're too kind, so kind it breaks my heart. You've always been like this, responding with sincerity no matter how others treat you. How can you be so.. naive?"
Timothy was utterly bewitched by Ashley. He couldn't tear his gaze away from her. Ashley cast her eyes downward and said, Timothy, don't say such things. After all, Selina is Ashley's sister. We, as sisters, share a bond. There are many things Ashley refuses to believe that truly come from Selina's intentions. She never meant to truly hurt us, her family!
"Ashley, that's enough, don't say anymore. Approaching Selina with such a mindset, exhibiting a guilty demeanor in front of her, will only lead Selina to become even more overbearing, continuously bullying and humiliating you..."
Manuel finally spoke up, patting Ashley's head. "Ashley, I know you're kind-hearted, and I wouldn't want you to change. But in the future, keep your distance from Selina. Leave dealing with her to Manuel."
"Manuel... Do we have to be at each other's throats with Selina, sering her as an enemy to the bitter end? She's our flesh and blood!"
"Selina declared war on us first. It has nothing to do with us. She betrayed the Harvey family, framed me, and chose to be our enemy. It's not that we are not benevolent. It's that Selina is not righteous. She thinks she can cut ties with the Harvey family. Without the Harvey family, there would be no Selina! And she can't ever repay the debt she owes to the Harvey family for her betrayal!"
Manuel knew that Selina could never be an idol like Angel. Sorricone with true moral values would never backstab their kin like a heartless beast. As for the bracelet design, it was as Timothy said. Selina must have traded her favors to win the affection of Trevon, parading his gifts in front of Lydia and Malcolm to show off an utterly disgusting act. The Harvey family is being shamed by such a daughter, without shame or honor!
"Manuel Ashley wanted to add more, but seeing Timothy and Manuel standing firm, she kept her thoughts to herself, already devising her plan.
Selina, with me here, you can forget about winning the hearts of the Clark family or the Harvey family! And you don't deserve it A stolen country girl, aiming to be my sister and share the Harvey family equally? The mere thought disgusts me. It's shameful enough to make me feel nauseous!
And Trevon... Just thinking of him made Ashley's heartache breathlessly. Such a privileged and handsome billionaire who should have been rightfully hers had been bewitched by a country girl like Selina, who was inferior to Ashley in every way
It must be that Selina honed shameless skills that allowed her to cling to Trevon. Ashley, born and raised with grace in a distinguished family, could never stoop to such levels, 11:03 Fri, Aug 23
Chapter 8V
Selina, I was destined to expose your true face one day, and when Trevon grew tired of playing with you and cast you aside, he would have realized that I. Ashley, was the woman most suited to him and the future matriarch of the Brady family! After dimmer, Selina returned to the villa, where the butler, Devin approached her.
Devin, where's Trevon?" she asked.
Seeing no one around. Devin lowered his voice to reply. "Mrs, ladly, you might want to check the study for Mr. Brady. He seemed a bit upset because you didn't dine with him tonight."
Selina let out a chuckle. Trevon was such a jealous type of person. He had sounded so agreeable over the phone, and yet he had changed his tune. Nodding, she said, "Prepare some sweet soup, I'll take it up to him."
"Got it!" Devin responded.
In the study. Trevon was meticulously handling the affairs of Insight Group. His efficiency had taken a dive, and he was well aware of what was troubling his mood.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
"Honey, may I come in?" It was Selina.
Trevon checked the time. It was already 10 PM. He got up to open the door for Selina, who entered carrying a bowl of red bean smoothie, offering it like a trophy. "Work is good, but don't wear yourself out. Here's a little reward for my hardworking husband" He accepted the soup, casually setting it aside on the table, and then pulled Selina close as he shut the door to the study. He spoke discontentedly, "You made me wait for so long, Honey. Shouldn't there be a punishment for that?"
"Honey, I explained everything on the phone, and it's only ten o'clock! We're in the trial phase of our relationship. Are you trying to lose points here?"
"I've been waiting for ages. It's just the way I am, and I can't change that."
Trevon's tall frame cast a large shadow in the light of the opulent chandelier, enveloping Selina's petite form. Breathing in the comforting scent unique to him, Selina finally gave in. "Just my luck to be caught by you. What's my punishment going to be SEND GIFT
