"Grandpa, if there's nothing else, I'll take my wife back." Trevon was hesitant to keep Selina there. He would rather they return to their mansion and cuddle than stay in the cold, unwelcoming Brady residence.
"You, son of a bitch! Sit down!" Maverick boomed. Although Maverick was usually even-tempered, he lost his cool and slammed the table when he heard Trevon. He thought, 'What is this? Is he really putting his wife before his own grandfather? Is she all he sees now? He just got here and hasn't even sat down yet. The moment he sees that Selina's fine, they start acting all lovey-dovey. Now, after being stopped, he's just going to take her away?'
Trevon looked at Maverick with a meaningful look. It was an invisible struggle. Sit down? No way! What's there to sit for with an old man? I'd rather go home and hug my wife!
"Well, Darling, don't ruin my image in front of Grandpa. Do you want to prove the rumor that I'm a vixen who seduced you? Show some respect, all right? Sit down, sit down." Selina tugged at Trevon's clothes. With a subtle nudge from his wife, Trevon sat down obediently, though his expression remained cold.
Selina acted as a mediator and smiled gently. "Grandpa, have some tea."
Maverick realized that Selina was trying to diffuse the situation, so he snorted and said, "Take a lesson from your wife. You used to show a little respect, but it seems you've gotten more arrogant lately. Do you really think you're all high and mighty now? Remember - I'm still your grandfather, no matter what."
"Grandpa, I didn't mean it that way. It's just that you suddenly visited my wife without letting me know first, and that upset. me," Trevon said.
"Damn it! I told you, I'm not a monster. Do you think I'm going to eat your wife? Isn't it normal for someone to want to meet their granddaughter-in-law? What's wrong with that? But you went and got married suddenly without telling anyone. I haven't even begun to address that!" Maverick exclaimed.
The relationship between Maverick and Trevon was beyond what anyone could imagine. Who would have guessed that the previous head of a billion-dollar empire would act like that? If someone happened to take a video of Maverick, it would surely go viral in no time. Maverick suggested they settle things over a game of chess, and Trevon didn't hesitate to accept the challenge. Meanwhile, Selina wanted to get some fresh air, so she made an excuse to go to the bathroom and quietly slipped out first. Selina didn't want to interfere with them, nor did she want to play the role of mediator between the two.
After stepping outside, Selina wandered through a random garden in the courtyard. Suddenly, she heard a surprised voice. "Is that you? Selina?" She turned and saw that t was Herbert. Selina responded casually, "What a coincidence! It's only four o'clock in the afternoon, and you're already off work, Herbert?"
Herbert frowned. "Did Grandpa ask you to come here? What did he tell you?"
"Just like what you said before, asking me to back off," Selina refuted.
Herbert was silent for a moment.
Selina raised an eyebrow. "What's this? Not taking the chance to gloat, Herbert? That's not like you at all."
"Selina, to be honest, I really underestimated you at first. Like everyone else, I thought you weren't good enough for Trevon based on what we found out about you. And honestly, I still feel that way. But my opinion of you has shifted just a little..." Herbert said. Based on the many hidden identities Selina had revealed and the strength she had shown in various situations, Herbert realized that she was far from ordinary. He mused, 'Of course, how could the woman Trevon likes be just an ordinary person? Trevon's taste isn't so superficial that he only looks at appearances. I have only done a surface-level investigation. Who would have guessed that Selina was hiding so much? Each new identity she reveals is more impressive than the last
"Well, fine. If you're not here to bother me, then go back to your room. I'll sit here and enjoy the scenery," Selina said again.

Herbert's mouth twitched in silence. He thought, Speak of the devil
Selina held her chin and glanced at Lisa Brady. "Oh, hello, I'm the loser wife you said. My name is Selina Harvey
"What? Lasa exclaimed, her eyes widening as she took in Selina stunning appearance. "You... How are you even more beautiful in person than in the photos? This doesn't make any sense
"I'll take that as a compliment, Selina said. She suddenly felt that Lisa looked a little familiar. She seemed to have met her somewhere before, but she couldn't recall where Strange, the thought
Lisa stammered. "I... I didn't mean what I said just now. Don't tell Trevon about it!" Upon thinking of Trevon's cold face, Lisa couldn't help but shudder.
As the youngest daughter of the Brady family, Lisa had always been the family's darling. She was treated like a real princese and got whatever she wanted. The only person she truly feared was Trevon. Lisa was spoiled and was used to being indulged Even when she caused trouble, someone would always help fix it. But Trevon wasn't one of those people. He would punish Lasa harshly if she misbehaved Besides, her father, mother, and brother were all loyal supporters of Trevon. Whatever Trevon wanted, they fully supported him. When it came to dealing with Trevon, Lisa's status as the hitle princess vanished completely. She knew Trevon was incredibly powerful, far more so than anyone she had ever encountered. She was both afraid and jealous of hain. In short, Lisa didn't want to end up on Trevon's bad side.
