Chapter 1723: Aarav's Gift
Afterwards, he sent his daughter back to Nevaeh.
As for why he left again later on--
It was only because he had to save Nevaeh.
Selena was lucky enough to have another Selena in danger at the same time.
But Nevaeh, who was surrounded by poison gas, wasn't so fortunate.
Callum had no choice but to leave his wife and daughter behind once again in order to save them both.
Kiera learned all her poisoning skills from "God's Love."
In other words, her Uncle David is the true mastermind behind it all.
The person Callum is looking for is most likely Kiera's Uncle David. He may have something that can save Nevaeh's life.
Then the underground city incident broke out and trapped Callum inside. And she... she killed her own Uncle David with her own hands!
Selena closed her eyes slightly.
Leia looked at Selena's suppressed expression and continued speaking. "Do you know what happened when Kiera found out that Daphne was actually her biological mother and Maddox was actually her biological father in court? She almost went crazy."
Selena opened her eyes and sneered. "Kiera went through so much trouble just to become the head of Riddle Group, even giving birth to twins for Sylvester Riddle. But in the end, she turned out to be a true member of Riddle Group from the very beginning..."
Not only that, she even had an incestuous relationship with Sylvester Riddle and gave birth to a pair of illegitimate children.
Anyone would go crazy!
Especially someone as extreme and twisted as Kiera!"
Leia nodded. "That woman was pushed too far. In court, she bit off a piece of flesh from Daphne's face while looking like something out of people's nightmares."
Selena sneered.
Kiera brought this upon herself with her malicious thoughts. People like her deserve what they get.
"What happened to Maddox and Daphne now?"
Leia looked pleased as she spoke about the fate of these two old fools. "As soon as Maddox's act of killing his wife and daughter came to light, he became a pariah that everyone wanted dead in the streets. But because he was just an accomplice and not the mastermind, he wasn't sentenced to death but instead got life imprisonment."
"At the end of his trial, he almost got torn apart on the spot by people."
"Maddox couldn't bear living in disgraceful misery anymore so he tried several times to commit suicide in prison but was stopped each time by Tumer family members sent there for him."
"He didn't succeed in killing himself but instead fell ill and became paralyzed from the neck down."
"Now he can neither live nor die; all he can do is rot away half-deadly in heavy-duty prison serving his penance."
"As for Daphne," Leia chuckled at some thought or another before continuing: "She killed the real Daphne which is quite laughable actually since Kiera hated her so much that she poisoned her directly resulting in a death sentence."
"That poisonous and insidious disease won't kill you, but it will make your whole body rot."
"For the past six months, Daphne has been lying in bed every day, watching her body decay and stink from the inside out."
"Out of humanitarianism, the hospital staff still feeds her every few days. But apparently, anyone who goes in to feed her has to wear thick protective gear from head to toe or they can't even get close to her."
"Perhaps even heaven couldn't bear to watch all the evil she had done in her life. Now Daphne is nothing but a piece of wriggling flesh that can neither live nor die."
"No one knows how long it will take for her to finally breathe her last..."
Selena listened quietly and remained calm as ever. She only asked, "What about Kiera?"
"She killed Nevaeh and abused... Miss Turner. The evidence was conclusive and she was sentenced to death!"
Selena smiled and looked out the window towards the direction of the underground city. "Kiera has been chasing after Callum all her life; she won't be content with dying here in the capital. Besides, Cassius is still alive...
Leia was shocked. "Should we... do something about Lady Kiera?"
"No need," Selena slowly stood up and walked towards the room's door. "Kiera caused so much harm to The Turner family, she killed Nevaeh and almost killed me too! She doesn't deserve a peaceful death here in the capital!"
She deserved punishment under righteous law.
Leia watched Selena's back as she blinked before turning around towards where they could see glimpses of underground city through their window- suddenly feeling uneasy.
Selena didn't stay long in that room before someone reached out from behind with open arms pulling Selena into an embrace saying: "Why don't you sleep a little longer?"
Selena leaned comfortably against the man's chest, gazing out at the endless blue sky and white clouds outside the window. "I was thinking about Aarav," she said. "He must know about my biggest sin in the underground city, but he still let you bring me there. It's because... he'll help me save everyone, right?"
Only forgiveness from the victim can truly make Selena let go of this sin.
Osvaldo spoke softly. "That is indeed what he thinks."
Aarav first helped Selena solve the biggest crisis in the empire and then had him bring her to the underground city.
There was no other answer except to help his sister completely remove this burden from her heart.
But...
The person's unfathomable methods were not very obvious but gave off a faint sense of anxiety behind them.
Osvaldo felt a little uneasy deep down inside.
Selena listened with joy and laughter filled her eyes as she said, "Aarav always gives such great gifts."
Selena wasn't someone who liked to trouble others.
Even Osvaldo couldn't make her rely on him at first.Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
Only when she received Aarav's gift could she truly feel happy.
She didn't know that he was her twin brother; it was just an instinctive feeling of happiness for her.
Filled with anticipation and longing, she headed towards the underground city.
hoping...
"Aarav, never let her be sad," Osvaldo said as he led Selena off the plane at their destination. The sun was setting, casting a blood-red glow across the desolate wasteland before them. It looked like the ruins of a post-apocalyptic world.
In front of them stood two towering black letters: "Restricted Zone!" This was a forbidden place known worldwide, even marked as a black spot on satellite maps. Even air travel was prohibited in this airspace.
Seven years had passed since Selena last stood at this border. She remembered the once-beautiful valley city and all its glory and prosperity that it used to possess, but now her eyes were clear and cold.
Osvaldo stood silently by her side without saying anything.
He knew that his girl had once killed the person who loved her dearly here with her own hands. It was an act of desperation, and it became the biggest sin of her life.
