Revenge On Love Rats After Rebirth by Olivia Marsh

Chapter 1156 | Refuse The crowd was surprised.

The young ladies of the wealthy families present looked at the young man kneeling half-bent at Selena'’s feet with horror on their faces. Even their breaths became sour in an instant.

The young leaders of the major families also turned slightly pale.

Constance's smile froze for a moment, and she had to exert great self-control to avoid losing her composure like everyone else.

After glancing lightly at Selena, she arrogantly averted her gaze. Only the tight grip of her fingers betrayed the unrest deep in her heart.

What on earth did Selena do to deserve the Soo family's lifetime fortune and effort to marry her?! Vivian trembled and stared at Selena with a pale face, looking like a ghost.

After realizing what she had heard, everyone immediately turned to look at Nicholas.

Nicholas’ face was calm, but his eyes were dark and inscrutable, showing no emotion.

However, the shock and horror on the faces of the other members of the Soo family were the same as those of everyone else present.

Obviously, even the people within the Soo family did not know that Alfie would make such a decision.

But if he made such a statement in public, if Selena truly accepted the Soo family's proposal, what the Soo family would give to the Turner family would only be more, not less.

That was half of the Soo family's fortune...

Definitely more than what they had taken from the Turner family all those years ago...

After confirming this fact, everyone present could not conceal their deep jealousy and regret when they looked at the Turner siblings.

Especially the young ladies present, their envious and hateful gazes at Selena were undisguised.

Half of the fortune for a betrothal gift...

How could this heiress who had just been found by the Turner family be so lucky?! Cameron suddenly closed his eyes.

Indeed...

During the laboratory dispute at Capital University, the resources promised by the Soo family were not for Penelope, but for Selena.

Alfie did not appear to help Penelope, but to help Selena.

Even if Penelope had won against Selena, she could not have become the owner of the laboratory.

The Capital University laboratory was originally a gift Alfie had prepared to give to Selena.

It was just that it was intercepted by Osvaldo's people midway, causing his gift to be left ungiven.

Although there had been speculation before, Cameron couldn't help but feel emotional when he heard Alfie's words with his own ears.

If Penelope had known earlier, even if she had calculated everything, she would not have had a chance to win over Selena, so why did she gamble everything to compete with Selena? The only one in the room who was not affected by Alfie's words was probably Selena. She stood upright, playing with the rose between her fingers, looking down at the man kneeling in front of her. Even the corners of her mouth did not change a bit.

She met Alfie's gaze without flinching and smiled slightly, "I refuse.” The whole room was in an uproar.

Just as everyone had returned to normal, they twisted their faces in shock and looked at Selena in disbelief.

Miss Turner, does she have a problem with her brain? The dowry promised by the Soo family could easily restore the Turner family's position as the number one wealthy family. Even if the person from the Anderson family liked her, it was difficult to guarantee that he could do this for her.

In the world of fame and fortune, everyone knows that personal feelings are nothing compared to the interests of the family.

Especially for the Turner family, who already have deep-seated enmity, power is of the utmost importance to them.

And yet Selena refused so casually...

Everyone in the room looked at Selena and felt that this Miss Turner really didn't know what was good for her. How could personal love be more important than the interests of the family? Vivian shouted, "Selena, Mr. Soo is kneeling in front of you, and the Soo family is willing to give you half of their territory. What more do you want?" Freddie looked at Patrick with a sly smile, "It seems that Miss Turner doesn't care much about your Turner family..." Compared to Selena being with Osvaldo, the Shaw family wanted her to fulfill her engagement with Alfie. After all, once Selena lost this backing, it would be much easier to deal with her.

Patrick's tone was light, "Don’t worry, Selena's marriage is her own decision." As soon as he said this, there was another gasp from the crowd.

Everyone looked at the Turner siblings and felt that the Turner family was not normal. And those who had just mocked Patrick and forced Selena into marriage for their own interests felt a burning pain on their faces.

Such a huge temptation of interests, yet Patrick did not even flinch. He did not look like he wanted to use his sister's marriage to benefit the family.

Only the members of Zone Six who were invited by the Turner family showed no surprise. If the Turner family had been chasing fame and fortune, they would not have reached this height today.

Selena paid no attention to the screams of others or the strange glances around her. She looked at Alfie, whose eyes were dim, and said softly, "I don't like you, and you don't like me. There's no need to be forced together because of a marriage contract.” After speaking, she took a step forward and turned to walk towards Patrick.

Alfie's voice, gentle yet cold, came from behind her, "But what if... | said | like you?" Selena stopped in her tracks and turned her head to look at him.

Alfie gently curved his lips, and the blood-red mole between his eyebrows was so distinct that it was different. His gaze fell on Selena's face without moving. "We're not forced together. I've been looking forward to meeting you for a long time." Selena frowned.

The Selena who had a marriage contract with the Soo family was already dead.

She had no relationship with the Soo family whatsoever.

She had thought that Mr. Soo, whom she had never even met, would not be interested in her.

But obviously, that was not the case.

If the other party was interested, this marriage contract would indeed be troublesome.

Seeing Selena silent, Patrick stepped forward and pulled her behind him.

This time, Selena was obedient.

Mainly because it involved the marriage contract set by the Turner family's ancestors. If she refused unreasonably on the spot, it would make the Turner family look down upon.

It was best to leave the handling of this marriage contract to Patrick.

Anyway, she was already married.

Even if the Soo family was in the right, it could not change this fact.

Before Patrick could speak, Nicholas seemed to have finally come to his senses and smiled again. "Alfie's sincerity and intentions are already very clear. Both of them have a marriage contract, so fulfilling it is a matter of course." "Isn't that the truth?" Vivian sneered. "Miss Turner already has a fiancé. She can't do something that would embarrass the Turner family's ancestors for her own selfish desires, can she?" Constance smiled, "Miss Turner, in any case, the marriage contract between you and Mr. Soo was personally set by the elders of both families..."
