Upon entering college, Arturo resisted his mother's plans and clandestinely went to a medical school to sit in on classes to pursue his interests.
When his mother discovered his secret endeavors, she responded by sending him to a secluded school abroad for further studies.
Following his father's demise, Arturo's mother exerted increasing control over him.
Only in Selah's presence could he find a semblance of relaxation.
He appreciated her obedience and the sense of being in control.
It was with her that he could feel like a person, rather than a mere puppet.
However, Selah, who had consistently been compliant with him, was now refusing his arrangements and attempting to break free from his control.
In her eyes, there was only a lingering hatred and rejection.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThis left Arturo with an emptiness in his heart.
He yearned to reclaim what was lost, but deep down, he sensed that it might be an impossible pursuit.
The intensity of this emotion nearly compelled him to remove Selah's clothing, but a sudden, sharp pain in his arms disrupted his actions.
Selah had delivered a powerful kick, causing him to release his grip on her.
And then, a resounding slap landed on his face! His face was tilted to one side.
"Arturo, you asshole!" Arturo turned and saw Selah pulling the silk covers over her body on the bed, tears streaming down her face.
Her eyes reflected a mix of panic and disgust, and her body trembled slightly.
He realized he had crossed a line, so he extended a hand to wipe away Selah's tears.
However, she recoiled with the covers clutched protectively, treating him like a monstrous beast.
Arturo's hand remained suspended in midair.
Wearing a bitter smile, he spoke in a hoarse voice, “Selah, don't be afraid.
I'm just concerned about you.
I-I did this to protect you.
I'm afraid you might get hurt by others.
" "Protect me?" A mocking, exaggerated smile graced Selah's lips as if she'd just heard a joke.
"Why weren't you there to protectwhen your mother slappedand insultedduring my days with you family? You toldto go to Champs Le Bar that night, but where did you disappear afterward? Why weren't you there to protectwhen Andrew r@ped me? You claimed to be protecting me, but everything you've done seems to be causingpain.
Can you point out something you've done that hasn't hurt me? Please, stop acting like you genuinely want to protect me?" Arturo's brows furrowed as Selah laid bare the painful truths.
Rising from the bed, he gripped his forehead with frustration. The Champs Le Bar incident haunted Arturo as a lifelong regret. Back then, he hadn't yet assumed control of the Yates family.

That day, he was on a business trip in Morcastle and spent twith sclients at Champs Le Bar. Feeling a longing for Selah, he sent her a message, inviting her to join him.
Little did he expect that Selah would show up.
He got her so intoxicated that she becunconscious and unaware of her surroundings.
In his intoxicated state, Arturo couldn't resist his desire for Selah! and had s@x with her while she was drunk. After the incident, he worried that Selah might want him to take responsibility for his actions.
He was also scared that if his mother found out, she would forbid it and possibly harm Selah.
Furthermore, he was at a crucial point in taking on the leadership of the Yates Group, leaving him with no E room for any setbacks. So he abandoned Selah in the room and fled.
Later, Andrew intervened and destroyed this legendary movie queen.
