Rebirth To Be The Revenge Queen

Chapter 1318 Selena Gets Drunk Mrs. Riddle wanted to see her.

Maddox also wanted to see her.

But Selena didn't want to see anyone from the Riddle family.

If Lady Nevaeh's death was really related to the Riddle family, she wouldn't let anyone involved get away with it.

Although she didn't know why Mrs. Riddle wanted to see her, she was sure that Maddox wanted to see her for the Riddle family.

Selena lowered her eyes, hiding the mockery in them.

If she were still the Selena of Creephia without her current status, who would even remember her from the Riddle family? Hattie looked at Selena's indifferent expression and knew that Selena didn't want to see Maddox.

Hattie didn't speak up for the Riddle family.

She only told Selena about it so that Selena could make her own decision.

As the atmosphere grew silent, Leia walked over with a tray. "Madam Selena, this is the fruit wine I just got from Madam Laurence. Try it." She helped Selena and Hattie each pour a glass.

Selena took the crystal glass and took a sip. It was sweet but not cloying, with a special fruity fragrance.

It was delicious! Selena smiled with curved brows.

Suddenly, the wind blew on the lake, causing the lotus leaves to sway and dance like graceful beauties.

Selena stared at it, and unconsciously, she drank glass after glass of wine.

After about ten minutes, Leia suddenly spoke up, "Madam Selena, there's a banquet ahead. Madam Laurence asked if you want to join in?" Selena looked over, her black eyes wet, and after a moment's thought, she said with a smile, "Sure." Then, she got up and walked towards the front hall.

Leia watched Selena's slim and straight figure and felt that something was off.

She looked at Selena and then at the wine glasses on the table.

Lady Lauren prepared them specifically for Selena, with a very low alcohol content. Even a few jugs of it wouldn't be a problem for an ordinary person to drink, and Madam Selena shouldn't get drunk.

Leia shook her head and followed Selena.

Front hall.

Vivian sat on the second seat near the main seat, thinking about how Selena had outdone her at the longevity ceremony earlier, her heart filled with frustration.

A close friend of Vivian's approached her and said, "l asked around for you. The kitchen prepared a separate lunch for Selena just now, so she probably won't come to the main hall." With a meaningful glance at the main seat, the friend added, "Vivian, this is a rare opportunity. Seize it." Vivian's gaze instinctively turned towards the main seat.

Master Antonio sat in the center, with Benjamin and Lady Lauren beside him, followed by Osvaldo and his brothers. Freddie was also present. There was an empty seat next to Osvaldo, clearly reserved for Selena, but she seemed unlikely to come.

Moreover, it was already time to begin the feast, and if Selena did show up, it would be considered disrespectful to the elders.

When Vivian had this thought, she immediately picked up her wine glass and stood up gracefully, walking towards Master Antonio. She raised her glass to him and said with a gentle smile, "Master Antonio, | toast to you and wish you good fortune and along life." She then downed the entire glass in one gulp.

Master Antonio was not entirely aware of the conflict between Vivian and Selena, but Vivian had been a frequent guest at the Anderson family for over a decade, and he was more familiar with her than with other young ladies of the aristocracy.

Moreover, he had just received a valuable gift from Vivian, so his attitude was naturally friendly. "Thank you," he said.

Vivian was pleased to receive his praise, and her smile grew even brighter. She casually looked over at Freddie and said, "Brother, there are no empty seats elsewhere. Can | sit next to you?" With composure, she sat down on the empty chair next to Osvaldo.

The atmosphere suddenly became quiet.

Osvaldo's face turned a shade colder, and Freddie glared at Vivian with frustration, but he couldn't reprimand her in this situation, so he pretended not to notice.

Everyone present stared at Vivian, with envious and disdainful eyes.

A group of young ladies whispered to each other, "Miss Shaw is really shameless. She's from one of the four major families in the capital, and yet she's throwing herself at him so obviously..." Vivian's friend immediately contradicted, "At least Vivian has the courage to pursue her own happiness. What right do you have to criticize her when you don't even have the guts to try?" "Exactly! Don't act high and mighty and tell us who among you doesn't want to climb up the Anderson family!" "At least Vivian has a chance to get close to that man, but you guys don't have any chance at all. In comparison, you high and mighty ones are even more pitiful!" The young lady who spoke was so angry that her face turned white. She said, "But there must be a limit to chasing after someone. Mr. Anderson already has a wife. If Vivian approaches him like this, isn't she openly becoming the third party?!" Vivian's group of friends looked stiff and then started to refute in unison.

"Nonsense! Vivian just sat down on a chair. She didn't seduce Mr. Anderson. Watch what you say!" "If you want to blame anyone, blame Selena. At Master Antonio's banquet, as the designated granddaughter-in-law, she didn't even show her face. She was the one who was impolite first!" "That's right. Although the Anderson family spoils her, she still can't have no reservations. It's no wonder she comes from a lowly background and has no manners or etiquette at all--" Just as Vivian's friend finished speaking, a smiling voice came from the door. "Finally found you!" This familiar voice made everyone turn around at the same time.

Osvaldo's eyes lit up in an instant.

The afternoon sun was a bit intense. A young girl in a light green long dress walked in confidently from the door. In an instant, everyone felt as if the entire hall had lit up.

The beautiful and delicate girl stood there with a misty look in her eyes, and her lips curved into a sweet and charming smile.

She was both obedient and cute.

Osvaldo immediately noticed that Selena was not in the right state, so he stood up from his chair and walked to her, embracing her waist.

As soon as he touched the slender figure of the girl, Osvaldo felt the hotness of her skin in his palm, which was frightening.

A mixture of wine and the fragrance of a beautiful woman rushed towards him, indescribably sweet and alluring.

His deep black eyes dimmed almost to the point of tears.

Selena looked at Osvaldo and blinked her eyes. "I'm sorry. | got drunk and couldn't find my way here, so | came late." Everyone was stunned.

Lady Lauren looked at Selena's expression, feeling a bit puzzled.

The fruit wine she gave Selena hardly contained any alcohol, so how did she get drunk? She really could not drink a lot!
