Mystery Bride's Revenge (Selina)

Sara couldn't come to any other conclusion.

Ashley feigned surprise. Predicting the contest questions? Morn, is that for real?"

The themes of a Jewelry Design Contest are usually limited. With Trevon's capability, getting a renowned international jewelry designer to provide ideas for Selina is not out of the question. The fact that Selina didn't make a move at the beginning of the contest could mean she was just recalling the details!"

The more Sara thought about it, the more sensible it seemed until she heard an unexpected voice challenge her, "Mom, that's not how it is. Selina designed it all by herself

Π

"Manuel" Both Sara and Ashley looked at Manuel with astonishment in their eyes. Biting his lip, Manuel said, "The judges for this contest were all renowned masters internationally. The draft for Selina's winning piece Shackled Hearts has been released, and I've seen the design. There are many detailed annotations and terminology that couldn't possibly come from

rote memorization...

Manuel was all too familiar with that design style and artistic touch. It was just like when he first laid eyes on the bracelet design Selina had created. Pure, quintessential Angel style!

Relying on originality and meticulous detail, the design was simple yet chic, standing out from the crowd effortlessly. This was no mere imitation: Selina had masterfully integrated the Angel style into her creation!

It could even be said... Selina was closer to the essence of Angel than Manuel, who had studied for years!

As he was confronted by the gazes of Sara and Ashley, Manuel realized he had accidentally spoken up for Selina. Shaking his head, he clammed up, forcefully suppressing the indescribable emotions within him. As he walked up to the entrance of the contest venue, he was stunned by the breathtaking bed of flowers before him

Manuel instantly spotted the initials of Selina's name amidst the flowers. The bed of flowers had already attracted attention. with many onlookers admiring the sight and pulling out their smartphones to snap pictures and post on TikTok

Ashley was nearly driven mad with rage; it was obvious to anyone that this was Trevon's doing. The brilliance of the flowers" hues and the dew glistening upon them clearly indicated they were flown in just that day! The sprawling sea of flowers must have cost a small fortune!

Yet to Trevon, this was a drop in the bucket. What mattered was the sentiment behind it. How Ashley wished the floral tribute was for her, that she alone deserved such an honor! Selina... What was Selina in comparison? She was worth nothing!

For Manuel, the heartache stemmed from something different for Ashley. At just a glance, he recognized what the two types of flowers symbolized. Trevon had believed that Selina could be the winner. Just how much did he truly understand about Selina? Suddenly, Manuel felt like a stranger to Selina. Everything he knew about Selina was just surface-level, while she possessed a talent that seemed insurmountable... Even though Manuel was Selina's brother, now he found himself knowing less about her than an outsider, stirring a painful sense of discomfort within him.

Everyone had their schemes, and it was destined to be a restless night for them.

In the car, Trevon and Selina were heading back to the Brady manor. During the ride, Selina received a message from Lydia saying that she and Malcolm were planning to throw a celebratory dinner for her that evening, and to also send Malcolm off.

Replying with a simple "OK, Selina showed the message exchange to Trevon.

"So, that's the plan. I'm heading out tonight, you stay home and be good."

"And what if I don't want to?" Trevon had planned out a whole evening of things to do with Selina, but someone else beat

him to it. He was not happy

A certain overbearing CEO's possessiveness was starting to stir. Maybe he should build a castle, set up a signal blocker, and keep Selina locked up, belonging only to him?

"Be good- Obedience is endearing Selina stroked Trevon's hair like she was calming a child, which almost knocked the driver unconscious from shock. It was the driver's first time seeing anyone dare to talk to Trevon that way, and he quickly hit a button that raised the partition, cutting off everything.

He didn't have the guts to watch or listen any longer, even if 'Trevon didn't lay a hand on him, he was afraid he might drop dead from the tension.

"Honey... Trevon was about to speak when suddenly, his phone rang

Seeing the caller ID, Trevon's eyebrow subtly raised as he answered the call. After hearing what was said on the other end, Trevon uttered a brief response and hung up. Selina's lips curled up slightly. "Something at the company you need to take care of?"

"If you cancel your meetup with Lydia and Malcolm, and just stay with me, I can push aside even the most urgent matters. They're not nearly as important to me as you are." "Wishful thinking"

As night descended, the trio, clad in breezy summer outfits, luxuriated at the Seaside Bar of a plush seven-star hotel. The evening sea breeze carried the day's residual warmth from the sands, adding to the indulgence of the summer special they sipped on-the Night Shimmer. This black beverage, mingled with ice, provided a sensory delight, offering the ultimate

relaxation.

"Cheers!"

Lydia gulped down a generous swig of Night Shimmer and slung her arm around Selina's shoulder, "Selina, I knew you're the best, but today I saw on Twitter that someone said your style is very similar to Angel's. Is everything okay!" "If push comes to shove, I don't mind if my alias gets out. It's no big deal to me."

Previously, Selina didn't want too high a profile to avoid being mobbed every time she went out. But now that she's in relationship mode with Trevon, and their marriage will eventually come out, what could invite more critique than being Trevon's wife? Nothing "Selima, if Trevon does anything disrespectful during this contracted marriage, you tell Malcolm, and I'll take care of him."

Malcolm had some ideas about Selina's situation. He wasn't in Clusia when the news broke and didn't know the details. Although he was eager for Selina to break away from the Harvey family, using a contract marriage for that end didn't sit well with her. He feared Trevon wasn't upstanding.

Selina was the darling sister of Malcolm and Jeffrey, pampered and treasured against even the slightest harm. Now that the deed was done, Malcolm didn't want Selina to be known for betrayal, but he would never allow Trevon to harbor inappropriate thoughts about Selina. If he did, Malcolm would make sure he paid!

Lydia gave Selina a sympathetic look. With all the brothers' possessiveness, even if Trevon truly won the beauty's heart, he still had a long and bumpy road ahead.

Selina lifted her glass of Night Shimmer, took a sip, and smiled faintly, "Don't worry about it, he wouldn't dare. After all, I'm the little sister of a top Mumzik lawyer, he's too busy respecting me to do anything else. He's got no choice but to be a devoted husband. That's good to hear. Malcolm stood up, "You guys have fun. I need to handle something and will be back in an hour."

"Okay."

Malcolm had barely left when two people made their way to the Seaside Bar. "Alright, Mandel, quit sulking. You promised to help me celebrate my triumphant hospital discharge. Let's drink enough to forget all of the bullshit from today!"
