Chapter 1676: Why do you suddenly want to meet?

In this situation, even if she were to reveal the truth to everyone, the people of Riddle Group Empire

would not agree to her killing Lillian.

The best solution is to find another reliable heir for the Riddle Group Empire.

But that method has also been blocked.

The first emperor established strict rules for succession in order to prevent family bloodshed and power

struggles. The legitimate heirs are highly valued and respected based on their seniority.

Lillian was even granted the royal surname, which is a rare exception among descendants of the royal

bloodline in all these years. And this opportunity was fought hard by her aunt with unknown means

against her father's objections.

Unless Selena has biological siblings, no one can replace Lillian.

Selena even thought about persuading her mother to have another child... but she quickly dismissed

that idea for fear of being beaten by her father.

Currently, Selena faces an extremely cruel and difficult reality: She must judge Lillian while ensuring

that there is someone who can inherit the throne. How can she openly send a noble prince onto the

guillotine amidst everyone's opposition?

In a quiet study room, Selena sat cross-legged on a cushion and looked up at a hanging scroll with

black eyes shimmering with deep contemplation. Beside her sat a silver-haired doll dressed in black

robes intently reading a book. The little one flipped through pages with its delicate white fingers;

occasionally its face turned red as it excitedly blew pink bubbles from its mouth without noticing it.

Gaia must not be exposed to inappropriate content.

Selena took the book from Gaia's hands and flipped through it, confirming her suspicions. It was indeed

a fairy tale, but with some explicit scenes that were definitely not suitable for a child.

She sighed and turned to Gaia. "Sweetie, this book is not appropriate for you. Daddy shouldn't have

given it to you."

Gaia pouted but didn't argue. Selena made a mental note to talk to Osvaldo about monitoring what

their daughter reads.

As she put the book away, Selena couldn't help but wonder if Osvaldo had been reading similar books

lately. They had been married for five years now and things had become stale in the bedroom

department.

But that was a problem for another day. Right now, she needed to focus on being a responsible parent

and making sure her daughter wasn't exposed to anything harmful.

As they left the study room together, Selena made a mental note to keep an eye on what other books

Gaia was reading in the future. She couldn't let her innocent little girl be corrupted by inappropriate

content like this again.

"Is there something off about this teaching method?" Selena asked firmly as she closed the book and

picked up a copy of Snow White from the shelf. She handed it to little Gaia and said, "Read this

instead."

Gaia blinked, making sure that her mother wouldn't take the book away from her again, before she

started reading Snow White with great concentration.

Selena took the unconventional fairy tale out of her study and returned to her bedroom where she

stuffed it into a drawer. As a gust of wind blew in through the curtains, Selena paused for a moment

before turning to look outside. All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

There was another option available to her - finding that big brother figure who might be related to

Riddle Group's empire. If he truly was part of their bloodline, then all of Selena's problems would be

solved effortlessly.

But how could she find him? There was only one other person who might know why Selena left home

in the first place - that boy she met at the mercenary hideout. Perhaps if she found him, he could lead

her to that big brother figure and reveal his true identity.

Selena walked over to the window and gazed out at Central City's towering buildings in the distance.

She and that man had not crossed paths for many years, like water from two different wells. Selena

wasn't entirely sure if he would help her when she approached him.

But...

Whether it was the vague memories of their childhood or the years of standoff between them, her

intuition told her that he wasn't someone who would take advantage of her vulnerability.

Despite his reputation for cruelty and power, which had spread throughout the entire alliance, Selena

had a feeling that seeking him out would bring an unexpected surprise.

Selena was always decisive; once she made up her mind about something, she wouldn't hesitate to act

on it. She turned around and took a step towards finding Gaia but changed her mind again.

Her father wouldn't approve of her trying to find this "big brother," and asking Gaia might raise

suspicions. Selena found her computer and messaged Ace of Hearts instead.

YQ: [A, can you help me contact the person from Dark Empire? I need to see him.]

Ace of Hearts: [Why do you suddenly want to see him?]

Selena felt there was something off in his tone and furrowed her brows.

YQ: [Can I not see him?]

Ace of Hearts: [It's not that... it's just sudden. Weren't you avoiding any connections with him before?

Why change your mind now?]

YQ: "I've encountered a difficult situation and I have to see him for a reason, and... I owe him a favor,

so this is the perfect opportunity to repay it."

Ace of Hearts: "... If you're sure, I'll contact the other party right away..."

From the tone of the other person's voice, Selena sensed something strange.

She remembered her past with that person. They didn't have any grudges against each other; at most,

when she was young and ignorant, she tricked him once...

After so many years had passed, he should have gotten married by now. He wouldn't be so petty as to

hold onto a grudge for so long.

Selena coughed nervously.

She was only five years old back then. Confessing anything would not really matter to him...

Suppressing her uneasiness deep down inside her heart, Selena sent out a message.

QY: "Yes please contact him for me."

After thinking about it some more, she added another sentence. "If he doesn't want to see me there's

no need to force it."

She had heard about his power before and his coldness was well-known too.

To him she was just someone who he met briefly when they were young; it was possible that he

wouldn't want to waste time seeing her.

Ace of Hearts: "... Don't worry. He will definitely meet with you."

Selena just hoped that when she saw him in person she wouldn't be frightened by what awaited her.

Once everything was arranged properly Selena closed her computer and left the bedroom.

At the same time, at the International Medical College, White Crow received a phone call.

Ace of Hearts' magnetic voice came through the line, gender indistinguishable. "I have some good

news and some not-so-good news. Do you both want to hear it?"

White Crow calmly took off his gloves. "What happened to her?"

"She decided to go see him in person," Ace of Hearts seemed to bite his lip. "When I investigated her

fiancé, I warned her... but when she met that man, she became exceptionally tolerant..."
