Chapter 105

Caleb was dragging a visibly distressed Manuel beside him. Manuel didn’t know what to say, feeling like a zombie, and he couldn’t stop thinking about Selina

They had just arrived at the Seaside Bar and ordered two signature cocktails called Night Shimmer. Caleb took a sip. casually glanced around, and almost spit out his drink…

Was he seeing things? A sneaky second look… and there it was Selinat He’d never forget that face, even if it turned to ashes.

Just as Caleb was about to concoct an excuse to get Manuel out of there… Manuel turned his head and also saw Selina and Lydia

Caught in the act. Caleb had no way to interfere. He whispered urgently to Manuel, “Let’s skedaddle before they notice us more. If Selina gets involved, it’s gonna be trouble.”

Caleb had an inkling since their last car race that Selina was in trouble. Not only was she gorgeous with mad racing skills, but she also beat Manuel in today’s jewelry design contest, something fishy was definitely going on since Manuel had genuine talent in that field, and Caleb knew it.

Lydia, also taking note of Caleb and Manuel, leaned into Selina’s ear and murmured, “Selina, we run into these two losers you’ve already trashed.”

Selina replied nonchalantly. “No worries, Lydia. We’ll do our thing. After the beatdown I gave them, they wouldn’t dare to confront us again.”

One had just left the hospital from a racing incident involving Selina, and the other had his reputation shredded in today’s contest by her skilled hands. Selina wasn’t hunting them down to rub salt in their wounds, that would be beneath her. From now on, if they disappeared whenever she showed up, Selina might consider sparing them more humiliation.

Hearing this, Manuel pursed his lips, his eyes flickering as if he were making some pivotal decision. “You stay here, Caleb.”

“What?” Caleb was dumbfounded, then watched as Manuel took the initiative and started walking toward Selina.

Has Manuel lost his mind? Caleb wanted to pull Manuel back but it was too late, he could only follow to a point and then stop in his tracks.

“What brings you here, the defeated hand of Selina?” Lydia couldn’t hide her admiration for Manuel’s thick skin. Even after being trashed by Selina, he had the nerve to confront them.

Manuel clenched his fist. “I just came to say sorry, Selina.”

“What?” Not only was Lydia taken aback, but so was Selina.

Manuel apologizing to Selina? It was as if the sun had risen from the west.

In their past lives, Manuel had misunderstood Selina countless times. Selina had proven herself innocent on more than two occasions and still couldn’t extract an apology from Manuel. He always compared her unfavorably to Ashley, saying she wasn’t even worthy to the Ashley’s shoes!

Subsequently, the traps and misunderstandings were relentless. Selina, craving familial love, bore all the slander, thinking that being docile, a daughter and sister who didn’t compete or struggle, would earn her family’s affection. How tragically

mistaken she was!

After being reborn, Selina stopped caring about the Harvey family’s opinions, becoming free–spirited, whoever messed with her would feel her wrath. Manuel, rather than disliking her more, actually took the initiative to apologize. Selina could only laught

Chapter 103

It turned out that in this so–called family–oriented Harvey family, being a rebellious daughter was more effective than a submissive one. They only responded to pain, showing friendliness only when hit where it hurt.

“I don’t need it, get lost.”

Selina sipped her Night Shimmer, a bitterness surfacing in her heart, bitter for the past life’s unworthiness and the present life’s mockery.

“Didn’t you hear? Get lost.

Lydia saw Selina’s unhappiness and her resentment towards Manuel growing. She didn’t hold back and planted a firm kick on Manuel’s right leg.

Manuel stumbled backward in pain, and Caleb swiftly moved to support him. “Manuel, are you alright? Can we not talk this out? What’s the point of getting violent?”

“Why don’t you ask him? Selina has nothing to do with the Harvey family anymore. Do we need his apology? The best he can do is keep his distance and not ruin our mood, and now that’s the correct approach!”

Lydia was on the verge of rolling up her sleeves to give Manuel a thorough thrashing, tired of having him around, which was nothing but an imitation

“Manuel, you should have known this was a thankless job. Why apologize? Selina will not accept it, let’s go..

Caleb tried to lead Manuel away, but at that moment, Manuel broke free and stared at Selina steadily, I’m done apologizing but there’s one more thing. Do you know Angel?”

you

Selina cocked her head, “What now? Going to slander me for plagiarizing Angel’s work again? Or is it that my husband managed to recruit Angel to contribute the Shackled Hearts concept to me? Just like back in the bar parking lot when insisted that I passed Cartier’s review only because I had external help. Your inability to concede, Manuel, is really ugly to behold”

“That’s not what I meant. Angel is such a proud, mysterious, and talented designer, not even Trevon could persuade her to do such a thing! Your Shackled Hearts design today has the same style as Angel over the years, I’ve observed countless designs, and yours had the most characteristic touch of Angel! You must be very familiar with her!”

The more Manuel spoke, the more excited he became. He was now inclined to believe that Selina must be Angel’s student, or if not that, she must at least be acquainted with her. To achieve such excellence, there had to be guidance from Angel herself. Otherwise, he couldn’t replace any other explanation. Not even he could reach the heights that Selina had!

Manuel had lost the jewelry design contest and with it, the chance to collaborate with Angel. Meeting the reclusive Angel seemed as likely as winning the lottery. Perhaps, though, he could meet Angel through Selina. Manuel knew it was a long shot, but to see the idol he’d been dreaming about day and night, he’d weather any storm.

Lydia couldn’t help but chuckle at the sight of Manuel, such an Angel superfan. She mused about the shock he would get if he knew that Angel was Selina… The thought of that slap–in–the–face moment made Lydia gleefully anticipate the delicious taste of sweet revenge.

“How well I know her is none of your business.” Selina shot back curtly.

“Tell me, Selina! It’s very important to me!” Manuel pleaded, his breathing becoming more ragged. From Selina’s response, he felt no doubt about it, Selina knew Angell
