Chapter 2359 Scheme
Selena nodded. "I see. You can get back to work."
Orville Nelson only had one son, who had passed away.
Selena's so-called "uncle" was just a godson Orville Nelson adopted from a relative. He had a blood relationship with
the Nelson family, so Orville Nelson gave him everything without hesitation.
Selena was asked to marry Derek in exchange for the chance to save the Nelson family.
In fact, to put it bluntly, it was a chance for her "uncle".
She felt aggrieved, unreconciled, and angry before.
Selena was Orville's granddaughter, but she could not compare to his "godson".
She thought that her grandfather was so patriarchal to the point of confusion.
Selena longed for her grandfather to realize his mistake and apologize to her, so they could make up and forget
about the past.
However, since she knew about her lineage, she knew that such a day would never come.
Selena was evidence of her biological mother's adultery. She was a shame to the entire Nelson family, so how could
Orville Nelson hand over the Nelson family to Selena?
To Orville, Selena was worse than her "uncle".
Selena did not sleep well for several days in a row, so her complexion was dull.
She came down with a bleary look and an indifferent attitude. She went down a few flights of stairs and stood three
steps away from the ground to look at her "uncle". The corner of her mouth twitched indifferently.
"Why are you looking for me?" "You’ve been back in Mediania for so long, yet you haven’t gone home to see your
grandfather once. Do you still think of us as your family?"
As soon as her uncle went forward, he began to criticize her with a livid face.
Selena stood there. Her eyes flickered slightly, but she did not speak.
Her uncle thought she was guilty, so he scolded her relentlessly.
"Look at you now. You don't come back home, and you don't care that your husband is having an affair. His
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtillegitimate child is about to be born, yet you still have the cheek to stand here! You're really something! If I were
you, I'd feel so embarrassed that I wished I died abroad. How can you endure the humiliation and come back?
You're just embarrassing the Nelson family. If Derek has an illegitimate child, will he still respect our family?"
Her uncle’s face was flushed from yelling. It was as if he had used all his strength to scold her.
Selena stood there with a calm expression and looked at him indifferently.
Her eyes were hollow, and she could not seem to hear anything coming out of his mouth.
Perhaps she heard everything, but she did not take it to heart. She did not feel heartbroken anymore.
The Nelson family could no longer hurt her.
Eric told her this fact that made everything she knew in the past void. She had also regained her courage.
The Nelson family raised her for eighteen years and sold her off in exchange for wealth and glory.
Selena owed them nothing.
There was no need to expect any love and care from them.
She was truly alone in this world.
Even though her existence was unseemly, she had human rights, and her life was equally precious.
She should not be used as a commodity or as their punching bag.
The waiter on the side could not bear it anymore and said," Are you here to make trouble? If you continue to swear
like this, we'll call the police whether you’re our boss's relative or friend!"
Selena's uncle was taken aback for a moment and suddenly became furious.
Just as he was about to argue with the waiter, Selena calmly said, "Just get to the point. I'm not here to listen to
your criticism."
Her uncle's face was red from anger.
He took a deep breath and calmed himself down, not forgetting the purpose of his visit.
"Dad is hospitalized, and he wants to see you one last time. He called you before, but you never went home, so he
asked me to come to you in person."
Her uncle sounded distraught as if his biological father was about to die.
Selena's eyes were in a daze for a moment, and the corners of her lips curled into a cold arc.
"So, are you going or not? If you don’t want to go, I'll get someone to tie you up and bring you there!"
Her uncle put down harsh words. He absolutely did not believe that the meek Selena would dare to refuse.
The waiter next to Selena looked at the man warily.
Selena smiled faintly.
"I'll go. Tell me which hospital and ward number Grandpa is in. I'll go after I get dressed. If you want, you can wait
for me."
Of course, her uncle did not want to wait for her.
His face was glum, and his voice was indifferent as he said," He's at CA Hospital. I'm not bothered to wait for you."
After he finished speaking, he turned and left.
Orville Nelson was on his last breath. He had not signed the will yet, so he had to go over and keep watch.
As soon as he left, the waiters turned to look at Selena.
They looked at her with concern and pity in their eyes.
The corners of Selena's mouth twitched, and her attitude was nonchalant.
"You guys can go back to work. Everything is fine. Don't worry about me." "Boss, your family members are really
something. They treated you so badly and even came here to scold you. They didn't even stop to think about how
they could get to where they are today without your sacrifice!"
Some of them were used to Derek making trouble at the bar, but Selena did not sue him.
Thus, they had a rough idea of Selena's private affairs.
They could not stand it anymore.
Everyone else nodded.
Selena smiled and raised her eyebrows indifferently. "It's okay. I’ll go there once and resolve everything."
After she finished speaking, she turned around and went upstairs.
She made up her mind and cleaned up well before she went to the hospital.
On the way to the hospital, she thought about how kind her grandfather was to her back then. That was only
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmbecause he thought she was his biological granddaughter. Selena had already repaid his kindness by sacrificing her
own happiness.
She did not owe the Nelson family anymore.
Selena did not know why the mother she had never met made such a mistake, but Selena did not resent her.
Orville Nelson did not let Selena's biological father take her away probably because he was afraid that he would
raise her for nothing.
Thus, as soon as she turned 18, Orville could not wait to marry her off.
Selena smiled and shook her head.
Soon, she arrived at the hospital.
She parked the car and went upstairs.
Selena went to the ward where Orville Nelson was in.
This floor was quiet. A few people were standing at the door of the ward and discussing something in low voices.
"Why did the old man insist on waiting for Selena to sign the documents? Does he want to leave everything to
Selena?" "That brat hasn't come home to see us after returning to Mediania. How could she fight with us for the
inheritance?" "Right! The company is now in Big Brother's hands. All that's left is this one last step. If the old man
gives all his property to Selena, we’ll contest it!"
Selena walked over step by step. Her face was calm without any emotion on her face.
The woman who spoke the most was slightly taken aback. She looked sideways at Selena, who was approaching
them, and instantly changed her expression.
Selena had fair and tender skin, lustrous eyes, and striking facial features. She looked pure yet charming, just
downright beautiful.
She was even more beautiful than her biological mother.
However, what was the point of being so beautiful? She was still sold off to an abusive man.
Selena was certainly a femme fatale. If only they could use this face to curry favor with high-ranking officials...
Selena's aunt went over with a friendly smile. "Selena, you're finally here! We've been waiting for you. I haven't
seen you in three years, and I really miss you."
