Rebirth To Be The Revenge Queen

Chapter 1168 The Origin of the Engagement "Oscar!" "Commander!" The people from Zone Six rushed over in a frenzy.

Sidney tightly held Oscar's shoulder, his eyes reddening, "You brat... You actually came back!" Oscar looked at his former comrades and revealed a faint smile on his overly pale face.

As Patrick led Selena over, the others moved aside without a word.

Patrick suppressed his trembling and respectfully called out, "Father." Oscar's gaze fell on Patrick's face and stared at him for a while before turning to Selena.

Selena met his gaze and resisted the urge to look away. "Uncle." Oscar stared at her for a moment, his face emotionless as he softly said, "Patrick, Selena, come and push me over." Principal Marshall let go of her hand, and Patrick walked over, pushing Oscar in the direction of the main seat.

Selena stared at Oscar's back and unconsciously clenched her fingers.

Suddenly, a hand wrapped around her waist.

Selena looked up and saw Osvaldo standing beside her, but she didn't know when he had arrived.

Osvaldo held her tightly, his exquisite features revealing a sinister air, but his tone was gentle, "Selena, don't be afraid.” Selena was stunned.

Osvaldo's gaze was deep, as if he could see into the depths of her soul. His slender and fair fingers gently brushed over her eyes. "No matter what happens, | will always be by your side." Selena looked at his handsome and delicate face, her eyes filled with affection.

Her tense nerves suddenly relaxed.

She smiled at Osvaldo and whispered, "I believe you." Osvaldo's sinister gaze suddenly brightened.

He stared at her face closely, as if he couldn't get enough of looking at her.

Selena said with a smile, "Wait for me." Then she turned around and walked towards Patrick.

Until this moment, the people in the hall came back to their senses.

Apart from the Turner family's genuine joy and excitement, the faces of the other aristocratic families looked grim.

Lady Lauren looked at Oscar, who had suddenly appeared, and thought of what Benjamin had said earlier. Her eyes were full of suspicion. "Benjamin, is it you..." Benjamin knew what she wanted to ask and explained in a flat tone, "When | pulled him out of the pile of corpses back then, he was on the brink of death.” "I've been a walking dead for almost twenty years and just woke up recently,” Lady Lauren exhaled deeply. "If Oscar was still alive, Benjamin couldn't have kept it from the Turner family. But since Oscar fell into a coma and may not have been able to be saved, it's better to keep it hidden from the Turner family from the start than to give them false hope. Keeping the news of Oscar's last breath a secret is a form of protection for both the Turner family and Oscar. Fortunately, he finally woke up.” Oscar sat in a wheelchair, looking up at Nicholas, "Nicholas wants to take charge of my son's and niece's marriage. Did you ask me, their father and uncle?" Nicholas froze, looking at him in disbelief. "Oscar, how could you... still be alive?" This question echoed the thoughts of everyone present. How could someone who had been dead for over twenty years suddenly reappear? For the Turner family, Callum and Oscar were the pillars of the family. Either one of them being alive was enough to make people tremble. But now, both of them were alive.

The aristocratic families who had attacked the Turner family back then shuddered at the thought of this fact. Oscar's gaze fixed on Nicholas, and he whispered, "Not only am | alive, but my younger brother is alive too. Didn't Nicholas already know this news?" Nicholas’ pupils trembled uncontrollably. Apart from coveting the benefits that the Turner family brought, he was also afraid of retaliation from the Turner family.

Callum was too amazing. If he returned to the capital and saw the family annihilated and his wife die a terrible death, he would surely bear a grudge.

And the first one to be held accountable would undoubtedly be the Soo family.

Nicholas thought that if Selena could marry into the Soo family and give birth to a child with Soo family blood before Callum returned, Callum would have to suppress his hatred if he didn't want his daughter to be a widow. But he didn't expect that Selena was already married.

Although it was unexpected, the Turner family still had Patrick. The Turner family valued blood ties the most, and there wasn't much difference between a daughter and a nephew. But they never imagined that Oscar would return at this critical juncture! Oscar seemed to have guessed Nicholas’ thoughts and smiled coldly. "Indeed, when my father was alive, he did make a marriage contract with the Soo family, but the content of the contract was completely different from what Nicholas said." Nicholas relied on the fact that no one knew the truth and thus abused and forced the Turner family's children. The Turner family remembered this debt and, combined with old grudges, would settle accounts with the Soo family in the future! Nicholas felt a chill down his back as he faced those amazing eyes full of pressure.

Oscar shifted his gaze away from Nicholas and paused for a moment on Alfie's face before facing the audience: "About twenty years ago, the Soo family heard of a superstition from somewhere, stating that the eldest grandson's destiny was extremely valuable and could ensure the prosperity of the family if cultivated properly.” "But as they say, success and failure are two sides of the same coin. If destiny is harmed, good fortune turns to misfortune, and the Soo family would fall from prosperity into decline.” "Therefore, as soon as Alfie was born, Nicholas set a lifelong rule that he could never marry." "Mrs. Soo came to the Turner family to seek comfort from her sister. My wife, who had a kind heart, couldn't bear to see her young nephew suffer a lifetime of loneliness, so she pleaded with her father to arrange for him to marry one of the Turner family's daughters.” "My father saw how cute and naturally intelligent Alfie was, and felt empathy for him, so he agreed that if the Turner family had a daughter, the two children could be raised together.” "But at the time, the agreement was that if the Turner family's daughter was willing, the engagement would be valid, and if she was unwilling, the Soo family had no right to force her." There was an uproar among the crowd.

Disbelieving eyes turned to Nicholas and Mrs. Soo.

Nicholas’ hand holding the cane trembled, his face covered in wrinkles, looking so gloomy that water could almost drip from it.

Mrs. Soo's face was pale, and she kept her head down, too afraid to look at her shocked children beside her.

Lady Lauren sneered, "Zofia, you really have no shame, only more shameless!" Alfie suddenly closed his eyes, and the cinnabar red mark between his eyebrows looked even more sinister.

The hall fell into silence for a moment.

No one expected that the origin of the engagement between the Turner family and the Soo family would turn out to be like this.

Even more unexpected was that Nicholas would sacrifice his grandson's happiness for a baseless superstition.
