Female Novel
Chapter 191
“Mommy, did I cause trouble at the hospital that day?” Juniper could vaguely sense that this matterhad something to do with her because she’d only received the toad after going to the hospital thatday.
“No, you didn’t cause trouble for me, Juniper.”
Pouting, Juniper hung her head. “I’ll never wander around again, Mommy.”
A gratified smile manifested on Selena’s face. “Okay. You’ve grown up, Juniper. Hurry up and sleep.I’ll be keeping you company here.”novelbin
“Alright. Good night, Mommy. I love you.” After kissing her on the cheek, Juniper docilely pulled thecovers over herself.
Selena hummed her a lullaby, and she dozed off in no time. Then, Selena kissed her on theforehead. “Sleep well.”
Silently getting out of the bed, she tucked the covers around Juniper. When she walked out of theroom, a wave of exhaustion abruptly engulfed her. Even when I left the country with Juniper backthen and walked a fine line within life and death, I’ve never been this despondent.
She then took out her cell phone, unable to stop herself from looking at the videos and the public’scomments. No one believed that she was innocent; everyone was convinced that she wantedrevenge and intended murder. Yes, I indeed loathe Megan, but I’ve never thought of killing her, letalone doing so at the hospital where there are plenty of witnesses. Even if I have a screw loose inmy head, I won’t do such an idiotic thing. But who would believe me?
Roland was initially deferential to her because of his company, but after Megan’s incident, hesuddenly changed into a different person. It was as though he wanted to skin her alive, disregarding
even his company.
At this time, a pair of shoes appeared in her line of sight. Shifting her gaze upward from the shoes,she saw long legs, followed by a firm abdomen, a solid chest, and finally… a handsomecountenance. Selena looked up at Pierre. I’m quite impressed by myself that I’m actually still in themood to admire his striking countenance.
Pierre sat down beside her. “Well? Did my face captivate you?”
Selena snorted coldly before she dipped her head and pursed her lips with a smile. “Your face trulydid captivate me.” Sitting on the ground, she curled into herself. Then, she heaved a deep sigh.“How did you find me?”
Pierre shrugged. This is Digton City, my territory. How easy is it for me to find someone? With just alittle contemplation, one will know that she won’t be staying in an average hotel considering her networth, and this is the best hotel in Digton City, which just so happened to be the property of theFowler Family. Therefore, it was easy beyond words.
“Alright, forget I asked.” The answer came to Selena in an instant.
“Well? What do you think?” Pierre reached out and pulled her into his embrace. Selena wanted torebuff him in the beginning, but on second thought, it seemed unnecessary since they were dating.
“No comment.” In consideration of Meredith’s unusual identity, Selena didn’t want to raise hersuspicions though she couldn’t shake off the feeling that she’d been set up. She just couldn’t forgetthe moment when she tripped. The person nearest to me then was Meredith, but I truly can’t figureout her motivation in hurting Megan. Furthermore, she was aware that Megan was pregnant andknew full well that she might even die after falling from such heights.
“Everyone says that I wanted to kill her deliberately. If I say that it wasn’t deliberate, would youbelieve me?” Her voice was as soft as a whisper. The voices around her had her almost convincedthat she deliberately wanted to commit murder. Considering my grudge with Megan, no one willbelieve me.
“Yes.” Pierre merely uttered a single word.
