Chapter 259

Frederick looked at George and asked, “Mr. Barrett, could you give is a moment alone?

“Uh…….” George hesitated, looking between Frederick and Selina.

Tid like to speak with Selina privately

Selina said coldly, “I don’t think there’s anything left for us to discuss. Why don’t you and that lover Lloyd just disappear What’s the point of showing up in front of me!!

Frederick, already used to Selinas indiference, replied, “Your words are as harsh as ever. Mr. Barrett, please give us a moment to talk privarely

“Queen Selina, what do you think? George asked hesitantly, Selina stayed silent, her expression unchanged. George, caught between his fear of angering Selina and his unwillingness to offend Frederick, left the rooms with a dejected air. He realized this wasn’t a situation he wanted to be involved in and decided it was better to make himself scarce than get dragged into their conflict,

Frederick, undeterred, said. “I seems you still want to talk, Selina.” He stepped forward, only for Selina to swiftly deliver a kick. Fredenck barely managed to dodge in time, but the force of the wind from her kick will tore through his clothing

Ript

The kick left a bleeding cut on his arm. The pain was intense, causing him to grimace. Selina’s strength way undeniable: Frederick could feel the Intensity even from the mere gust of her kick

Despite his owns training in kickboxing and special forces techniques, skills that were well–hord within the Harvey family, he was no match for her. Every man in the Harvey family, except Ashley, had undergone rigorous self–defense training/ oder imp instructors. Quinton believed that a man who couldn’t protect himself was a corard, unfit to protect die women in the family.

Frederick’s thoughts raced, ‘No wonder Manuel and Lloyd were so thoroughly heaten by Schma. Her grength is far beyond theirs A pang of Jealousy hit him, knowing that his younger sister overshadowed him was hard to swallow, especially after he had dedicated so much of his life to. intense training to protect Sara Ashley, and Selina

“Selina, can’t we just talk this out without resorting to violence! Frederick pleaded.

Selina withdrew her foot and replied calmly. “I’ll return these words to you, Frederick. Keep your family getting too close. If you have something to say, stay more than to feet away and speak

distance. I dont like anyone from the Harvey

Frederick sighed. “Selina, I think I understand why you resent the Harvey family, but I’ve never wronged you personally Do you remember our first conversation! li was pleasant, and I genuinely enjoyed meeting you Have you forgotten that?”

“If you’re here to talk nonsense, let me be clear: I haven’t forgotten, but I’ve also stopped expecting anything. To put it simply, 1 dont care about the Harvey family anymore. Frederick, everything I told you back then was the truth Please, believe me, and just leave me alone.” Selina s voice was steady, but her disgust was evident as she watched Frederick anempt to play the victims

She thought, In my previous life, Frederick was the one who tormented me the most. Unfortunately. I can’t eliminate anyone from the Harvey Family. In this life, he might still be clueless about the past and continue with his “good older brother at trying to drag ine down Honestly, if he wants to play a game of sibling affection, he should go find Ashley. She’d be thrilled to play alang

Frederick, seeing that this wasn’t going to be resolved easily said. “Olay, Selina. I see this isn’t something that can be sented quickly. I won’t push you any further

Selina mused. Has someone in the Harvey family finally become reasonable? She hadn’t even had time to breathe a sigh of rehef before he spoke

Teame to see you mainly to discuss a partnership. My novel. The Game of Viego, is being adapted into a film by a renowned Mumik director and Marring a popular Hollywood actor. It’s a project worth hundreds of millions of Mumzikian dollars. The female lead needs to be of Astonian descent with exceptional acting skills, and I believe you’re the perfect choice. As the original author. I have a say in the costing and I want you tim the role. Erederick sail, pride evident in his voice as if he were offering Selina a grand faves.

Ashley’s true colors. Instead, they believed in her blindly and grew more doubtful of me. No matter what Ashley did, even when I proved my innocence, the Harvey family seemed brainwashed by her.

‘If Ashley was seen as light and sunshine, then I was considered something rotten. With such a beloved sister, why would they bother with me?”

Frederick mistook Selina’s silence for agreement and pressed on, “Selina, even if you don’t want to return to the Harvey family, you should still consider this incredible opportunity. I believe you could truly embody the female lead.”

Selina responded coolly. “That’s quite a pitch, Frederick. But I’m going to pass. I don’t need anyone’s charity, least of all from the Harvey family

Frederick exclaimed, “What? Selina, you’ve misunderstood. This isn’t charity. I genuinely-

Selina cut him off. “Let’s set aside your desire to win me back for a moment. Would you have chosen me for the lead role otherwise? Even if it wasn’t Ashley, it still wouldn’t have been me. If I accepted the role but had no intention of returning to the Harvey family, would you still be fine with me benefiting from it for free?”

“… I hadn’t planned on… Frederick was taken aback by her question, hesitating momentarily. He thought, IF Selina accepted the lead role, returning to the Harvey family would be a done deal. But now she’s questioning what would happen if she took the role without coming back to us. What will I do then? My ace in the hole was using this role to lure Selina back. Even though she’s married to Trevon and has numerous identities. opportunities like this are rare and valuable!

Selina didn’t wait for an answer. “Your hesitation tells me you haven’t thought this through. First, I refuse because I don’t need your charity. Second, I’ve made it clear that I want nothing to do with the Harvey family. Let’s end this conversation here. I don’t want to hear about it again. And don’t come looking for me in the future! With that, Selina brushed past Frederick and headed straight for the door

Frederick called after her. “Selina, are you really not going to reconsider? I don’t believe you haven’t heard of my novels. You must know what a rare opportunity this is. I’m not trying to trap you; I’m being sincere
