Revenge On Love Rats After Rebirth by Olivia Marsh

Chapter 827 Selena, 9.9 billion! Just two words, but the entire venue fell silent.

The voice was pleasant to listen to, but it was hard to describe exactly what made it so appealing. The tone was flat and straightforward, without any warmth or inflection.

Despite its small size, the voice had an eerie effect, causing everyone in the room to hear it clearly.

The eyes of the crowd followed the direction of the voice as one.

Walking towards the bright sunlight was a tall figure dressed only in black and white.

As everyone's gaze fell on the man, the surroundings fell silent to near deathly stillness.

The man walking out of the sunlight had no expression on his face, just a pair of dark and eerie eyes fixed on Selena, making people's hearts tremble.

Selena's eyes widened slightly and as she realized what was happening, they grew brighter. She pushed against the back of the chair and in an instant left the contestant seat, leaping down towards the stage.

Her red dress fluttered in the air like a dancing butterfly, and she eagerly threw herself into the man's embrace.

The man reached out his long and powerful arm and embraced her waist.

Then, with a forceful motion, he embedded her into his embrace.

Selena smiled happily, her red lips curving upwards like a delicate doll pendant hanging from his arms. Looking into the man's eyes, she said with a hint of longing, "You're back..." Osvaldo looked at the small face in his arms, so close at hand. A hint of a smile appeared on the face that was expressionless just moments before. It was so captivating that people couldn't take their eyes off him.

Amidst the attention of the public, he held out his hand to Selena.

The hand was as delicate and noble as carved jade, exuding a ghostly aura.

Selena blinked, feeling a bit confused.

She had been too busy counting the time and had not heard what people were saying in the audience.

Osvaldo leaned in close to her ear, his blood-red lips brushing her lightly as he whispered, "Fill in a number." Selena's soft, pale face blushed slightly, but she obediently wrote a number in the man's palm despite her confusion.

Osvaldo never took his eyes off her face, sensing the number she had written, and his mood grew even better. His lips curved into a slightly twisted arc, and with a resounding voice, he completed the sentence he had not finished earlier.

"9. 9 billion!" With a "boom," the tense atmosphere suddenly exploded.

"Did my ears just fail me?" "The sentence reads, Selena 9. 9 billion?" "Selena... 9. 9 billion..." After realizing the meaning behind the man's words, everyone present was greatly shocked.

All the perfumers present widened their eyes and looked at Selena, their expressions unclear whether they were envious or jealous.

Especially the female perfumers, their faces turned pale, and several were so shocked that they almost fell.

Compared to the 9. 9 billion from this man, the one billion that the mysterious person gave Leah was nothing! Leah stared at Selena with a distorted expression, trembling with anger.

Originally, Selena was making a fool of herself, but after this man appeared, she was instantly elevated to a pedestal that everyone else couldn't reach.

Why did all the best things belong to Selena no matter how hard Leah tried to compete and grab them? Leah stood trembling in place, clutching her chest, with a resentful expression in her eyes.

At this moment, the barrage in the live broadcast room went crazy.

"Oh my god! 9. 9 billion, it's insane!!!" "It's confirmed, the silhouette in Lady Selena's Weibo post, | actually saw his face with my own eyes in my lifetime!!!" "This is Lady Selena’s boyfriend! Our entire university can testify! Who said Lady Selena's boyfriend wasn't good enough just now? Come out and get beaten!" "I was wrong! This boyfriend is too good! Industry number one!!!" On the second floor's VIP box, except for Leon, the faces of the remaining three men collectively darkened.

Christ stared at Osvaldo's hands around Selena, his eyes uncontrollably filled with killing intent and a cold sneer, "Mr. Shaw, you should watch your friend more carefully. If he turns on you one day, the Shaw family will be in danger!" Freddie's face was extremely unpleasant.

Patrick glanced over at the adjacent room and thought of the person who spent 100 million on Leah, his gaze becoming extremely cold.

Downstairs, at the center of the venue, Selena heard those uncontrollable screams and, because of Osvaldo's sudden appearance, her previously frozen mind finally became active again.

Immediately, she realized what the 9. 9 billion represented just now.

Selena moved her mouth, feeling guilty, "Actually, | was just..." Osvaldo asked her to write a number, and she didn't think much of it.

She just thought that the number 99 was very lucky...

Who would have thought that the man would be so generous.

Even she was momentarily shocked. Osvaldo looked at her with gentle eyes, seeming to be puzzled, "Do you not have confidence in winning?" Not really...

Selena was lying on his shoulder, her eyelashes quivering delicately as she whispered, "If | lose, you'll lose your 9. 9 billion as well..." She said that, but her sweet smile betrayed her happiness and contentment.

Osvaldo smiled indulgently and said, "It's alright, | don't lack anything except for a spendthrift.” Selena replied with a pause, and Osvaldo smiled and looked at her as if he couldn't tear his eyes away. "Selena, have you missed me these past few days?" Under his gaze, Selena's legs grew weak. She felt like she was melting under his gaze, and couldn't bring herself to say no, especially because at this crucial moment, she hoped he would be there to witness her victory in the competition.

With a sweet smile, Selena leaned in close to his ear and whispered, "Yes." Osvaldo's eyes lit up with joy and excitement. After all this time, his girl had finally expressed her longing for him.

Selena sensed his emotions boiling up in his eyes and her heart started to race with a mix of shyness, sweetness, apprehension, and anticipation. She felt a sudden impulse to run away from him, overwhelmed by the complexity of her emotions.

Osvaldo noticed her nervousness and unease, and gave a light chuckle. If it weren't for the occasion, he really wanted to...

He carried Selena towards the participant's platform and placed her back in her rightful place, his gaze gentle and his voice full of sincere encouragement. "I will always be watching you!" He would be there to witness her victory, and he would be with her all the way to the top.
