In the afternoon, Darren came in person to pick her up from the hospital. As soon as they left, they were surrounded by the reporters, and she looked at them in astonishment.
Darren stretch out to embrace her and used his coat to help her block the spotlight.
“It is not me who ask the reporters to come.” She caught hold of his coat, and explained subconsciously.
Darren patted her waist to comfort her, “I know. It’s not your fault.”
After getting into the car, he drove her all the way to a villa, which was supposed to be one of Darren’s properties in the capital.
He sent her into the villa, “You rest here for now.”
Seeing him without any intention to stay, Selina hugged his waist nervously, “Are you going to leave”
“Have a good rest and I will take you to dinner in the evening.”
Selina didn’t want him to feel that she was not sensible enough, so she had to let go of him and watched him leave the villa.
Zoe circled around the villa, walked downstairs and asked casually, “This is the famous lover’s villa in City D. What does Darren want to do To keep you in captivity”
“In captivity” Selina chuckled. She walked to the garden leisurely and sat down on a deck chair.
Now, she was really willing to be kept in captivity by him, depending on whether he wanted to or not.
Becoming his sweetheart, ushering him out every day, waiting for him to come back, bearing and raising children for him was the life she wanted the most now.
Zoe glanced at her and shook her head, “You are only 22 years old. Why do you think like an old lady”
Selina huddled herself up on the deck chair, without any desire to visit this magnificent villa. Where there was not Darren staying, she was not interested at all.
When walking out of the garden, Zoe saw her lie on the deck chair, with faint scars on her face. The breeze slowly blew her hair.
At the first sight of her, Zoe thought she was very special, who was obviously a fashionable young girl, but exuded a lifeless breath all over.
To consider her innocent, the maturity in her eyes could always be seen inadvertently.
To consider her mature, she had naïve thoughts.
Marrying into a rich family was the dream of every girl in the entertainment circle. At first, she thought Selina was the same, but during those years abroad, there were many foreign fat cats pursuing her, who she despised from beginning to the end. The only one in her mind was Darren.
“Why” Selina opened her eyes and looked at her.
Being caught peeping, Zoe touched her nose, “Look at you. I really can’t understand what you are thinking.”
“Me too. You are so beautiful, but why did you want to be an agent, not an artist” Selina lay on her side on the deck chair, and put her head on her arm, looking at Zoe.
“Because I am princess. How can I appear in public”
“It’s not funny at all.”
“Well, let’s talk about something serious. When do you intend to return to the City B You have several activities that keep delaying. If you don’t complete them, you will be accused of default.” After speaking, the phone rang and Zoe turned around to answer it.
Looking at the sky, she whispered, “Wait a while longer. If all that does not…, I have no choice but return to the City B.”
“There is a big news. Do you want to listen”
Zoe hung up the phone and turned back with a strange expression on her face.
“What news”
“Cecilia has given birth to a baby.”
However, there was little change in the expression on Selina’s face. She lay flat and put her hands on her stomach, “Well, I see.”
Zoe asked incomprehensibly, “That’s it After all she is your sister.”
“Just let her go. The Reed family’s affairs have nothing to do with me.” She closed her eyes slowly. Cecilia had a baby. This life really deviated completely from the previous one.
“It is really related with you. Cecilia had to give birth because she was pushed downstairs when she was quarreling with Eric. The quarrel process was all photographed and the topic they quarreled about was you.”
Selina sat up, staring still at the ground, “Well, I am not in City B these days. They can’t blame it on me.”
“Selina, I know you are half-sisters. It’s understandable that you are not so intimate, but some surface acting is necessary. Otherwise, it will affect your career as an artist if you keep indifferent to your family.”
Without words, she looked up at Zoe.
Did everyone have the same opinion as she did
She chuckled. It was true indeed. In this life, Cecilia hadn’t murdered her yet. In all of the bystanders’ opinion, Cecilia was only a girl with true temperament who robbed her fiancé.
But for her, Cecilia was a murderer!
“I was just reminding you. I will go to contact the media, and hope this incident will not get you involved.” After speaking, Zoe went into the villa and got down to working.
Selina sat still on the deck chair, looking at the swimming pool in front of her. What emerged in her mind was a scene when Cecilia broke her legs and then saw her legs being cut off indifferently.
Falling onto the ground, she felt it creepy with hair standing on end, and Cecilia’s gruesome voice lingered on her ears.
“Sister… don’t blame me. You always run away, so I cut off your legs. If you sign obediently, Brother Eric and I will treat you well for the rest of your life.”
Selina was lying in a pool of blood, with her red eyes staring at Cecilia who was squatting in front of her, “Unless I die, Cecilia, I will kill you!”
“If you don’t sign, I will also cut off your hands…”
“Don’t think about it anymore! It has already passed!” Selina stretched out to slap her head hard, but those voices still echoed in her mind.
She stayed at the garden until evening when someone came in from outside the villa.
“Miss Reed, Mr. Auton asked me to pick you up.”
She sat in certain position for a few hours and her body stiffened. Hearing the sound, she raised her head slowly and saw Murray standing with respect in the garden with some people.
“Where is he”
“Boss is waiting for Miss Reed, and he asked me to invite you over.”
“I see.”
Zoe walked out, with two hands crossed on her chest, “Why is Mr. Auton so mysterious”
Murray touched his nose, “We are just following the orders.”
Selina wanted to stand up, but she almost lost her feet because of her numb legs. Zoe hurried over to support her, “Damn, it’s so cold! Did you sit down here until now”
“It’s OK.”
“You look so pale. Can you really stand up and walk by yourself”
She shook her head. She decided not to let those scums affect her new life. In this life of resurrection, she decided not to pay all her attention to the enemies. Only Darren was her everything.
Murray also brought styling designers, who styled her hair, dressed her and made her a light makeup. As soon as she walked out of the bedroom, Zoe looked at her with surprise, “You are so beautiful. Mr. Auton really has a good taste.”
“This is indeed chosen in person by our boss.” Murray explained in a low voice standing beside.
Selina’s eyes lit up, she touched her clothes and a smile lifted the corner of her mouth, “Chosen by him.”
His taste was always good, and he had chosen many clothes for her. But she had never worn them.
“It’s time to leave. Miss Reed, let’s go.”
“OK.”
