Revenge On Love Rats After Rebirth by Olivia Marsh

Chapter 1152 My Fate is in My Hands Christ narrowed his eyes slightly, his expression turning into a smirk. "Why ask when you already know the answer, Miss Baxter?" Hearing it from the person involved was far more uncomfortable than any rumors.

How could Miss Turner be so lucky? One after another, everyone seemed to like her, despite her being such an insignificant woman.

Constance smiled, looking up towards the direction where Selena was located on the upper floor. "Mr. Poole wants Miss Turner, while | want Mr. Anderson. Since we have the same goal, why not collaborate?" Christ looked at this woman who thought highly of herself and concealed the disdain in his eyes. His tone sounded quite interested. "What kind of collaboration do you have in mind, Miss Baxter?" Constance's smile grew wider. "The Turner family's defenses are tight, making it difficult to take action. But there will always be opportunities in the future.” After the head of the research department was taken away, Constance felt a sense of crisis when facing Selena. However, that sense of crisis disappeared after experiencing the incident at the villa. Watching Selena use such despicable means to make Osvaldo go round and round, Constance couldn't help but feel angry.

She felt humiliated as she had never been before. What right did that woman, who only relied on her beautiful face to seduce men, have to step on her head? Christ probably sensed her thoughts and sneered inwardly. He was about to speak when he suddenly heard a strange sound of footsteps.

Christ's eyes lit up, and he looked up. A group of people walked in from outside the gate of the Turner family. Despite being mentally prepared, the noisy hall fell silent when everyone saw the group of people walking in.

Those family heads who had offended the Turner family before when they were timid turned pale immediately. The group of people counted and calculated in secret, and they became even more desperate when they realized that not only Zone One and Zone Six, but the other four zones also had people coming.

Moreover, they were all high-ranking officials with real power.

It can be said that the big shots who dominate half of Zone Six are only halfway here today! These are the true guests of the Turner family! Even Constance, who had a high opinion of herself, couldn't help but turn pale at this moment. "It's just the Turner family's daughter getting engaged, such a small matter... Why would it alarm these people?" Christ sneered and couldn't be bothered to answer such a stupid question.

Although he had been focusing on competing with Dexter for power recently, he hadn't missed the news about Selena.

He was well aware of Lady Nevaeh's death as well as Selena's appointment as the Minister of Research.

After Selena demonstrated her amazing mechanical talent that could crush 717, she became a national treasure for the entire Zone Six.

No matter how deep the internal conflicts in Zone Six were, no one dared to drop the ball when it came to dealing with talents like Selena.

It was probably the result of the Turner family's behind-the-scenes maneuvering that there were always a bunch of people guarding Selena's safety.

Coupled with the Turner family's prestige in Zone Six, it was not at all surprising for the Turner family's daughter to get engaged with such fanfare.

Wasn't it because of this that the Soo family suddenly thought of that engagement? Christ gave a cold smile.

Patrick stepped forward and greeted them.

Sidney looked at Patrick discontentedly, "Your sister just came back home and is still young. Why is she suddenly getting engaged?” Patrick was poked in the sore spot and had to maintain a smile on his face, "It's just a preliminary arrangement. Selena is still young, so the Turner family naturally wants to keep her for a few more years." Although the people in Zone Six were joking about it, it was clear that there were two families who came to propose today, and it could be guessed that the Turner family had no other choice.

This reason was also well-known.

The Turner family's daughter had an engagement with Mr. Soo.

At the same time, it was also well-known that the Turner family's daughter was in a relationship with the young master of the Anderson family.

The conflict between the Anderson family and the Soo family was almost on the table.

It remained to be seen how those two families would make a fuss today.

The guests downstairs gradually arrived, and Selena upstairs finally finished her makeup.

But she didn't want to deal with the guests impatiently, so she decided to hide upstairs and be lazy.

Hattie looked at Selena and couldn't see any signs of nervousness. She thought of Alfie and couldn't help but ask, "Selena, aren't you worried?" Selena looked down and asked, "Worried about what?" Hattie pouted, "The old man from the Soo family is known for being rigid in the capital. He will definitely cause trouble today because of that engagement!” Although Selena had never met the patriarch of the Soo family, she still had an idea of what kind of person he was. Having been on good terms with the Turner family during their heyday without any missteps, how could he not be cunning? And after the massacre of the Turner family, it was clear that he had no sentimental attachment to his former allies. How ruthless could the person who attacked the Turner family be? What's more, despite having committed these sins, the Soo family had the audacity to come knocking on the Turner family's door and demand that they fulfill their engagement to the Soo family after realizing their value. Selena's smile deepened slightly at the thought.

As for worrying - she had none. Firstly, with Osvaldo by her side, she felt secure. Secondly, did the Soo family really think they could force her to marry Alfie at knifepoint? "He has his methods, but neither Osvaldo nor | are pushovers," Selena said, patting Hattie's head. "With Osvaldo around, we have nothing to fear." Hattie thought of Antonio coming to their aid and felt relieved. But then she thought of Alfie and the Soo family's inhumane family rules. "I just feel sorry for Alfie," she murmured.

Alfie had been close to Leon since childhood and had treated her like a sister. Without this engagement to Selena, he might never marry. Hattie couldn't help but feel upset.

Selena heard her, but didn't have any extra thoughts about Alfie. She didn't even ask what Hattie meant. "Everyone has their own destiny," she said with a smile. "Whether we accept it or not is a personal choice.” Rules are dead, but people are alive. Whether it is living people being constrained by dead family rules or dead families constraining living people, that is Mr. Soo's business. Selena believed that Alfie's life should be his own responsibility, not hers.

Hattie looked at Selena's beautiful face, her eyes full of joy and expectation, and suddenly smiled. "You are right. Alfie's life should be his own burden, not yours." MMMWWLIIOIfIO&1 MMMWWLIIOIfIO&1 mmMwWLLIOfiflO& 1 MMMWWLIIOIfIO&1 MULL TO £2 E1061 mmMwWLIiIOfiflO&1
