"I will choose to believe you for now, but I will keep an eye on you," he said.
Selene internally sighed in relief but frowned due to Jack’s statement.
"Keep an eye on me, why?" She asked, confusionced in her tone.
"Because I still don’t trust you. Your entire presence is suspicious," said Jack before going inside the study room.
Selene stood, more confusion etched on her expression but she shrugged it off. She already got what she wanted.
She went back to Michelle’s room, where thetter had been waiting for her.
"What took you so long?" Michelle questioned when she saw Selene walking back into her room.
"Sorry, bad stomach," she replied. "I think I need to go now," Selene added.
"What? But it’s only been an hour since you came here."
"I know but I need to practice my script, and rest for a little. Remember, I didn’te to set today because I was sick," said Selene.
Michelle nodded, standing up so that she could hug Selene.
After hugging, Selene turned to leave.
Michelle bit her lips, contemting with her thoughts if she should ask Selene the question.
Before Selene could leave the room, Michelle stopped her.
"Selene, did you perhaps see Richard at the set yesterday?" She asked.
Instantly, Selene halted her steps, an unbelievable look on her face.
’So she was the one who sent Richard to rape me yesterday?’ Selene thought to herself.
Anger surged through her body, wanting to strangle Michelle to death. But she had a smile on her face when she turned to face her.
"I didn’t, why do you ask?"
Michelle bit her tongue.
’So he didn’t even show up at the set,’ she thought to herself.
"It’s nothing. It’s just that he sent me a text saying that he wasing to pick me up. But I left before he came," Michelle replied.
Selene frowned slightly.
"I see," said Selene, wondering why Michelle didn’t just ask Richard herself. They live in the same house.
After sharing a smile, Selene left the mansion.
Kace wasn’t around, so Xavier was the one bro who drove her to the Harrison mansion. Due to his car’s heavily tinted windows, they couldn’t see him.
Selene got into the car.
"I found it," she said, staring at Xavier with a smile on her lips.
—
"You finally found the property papers you were looking for?" Kace screamed as he jumped in joy, bing even more excited than Selene herself. He read through the words written inside, "It’s the one," he added.
Selene stared at Kace, surprised by his reaction.
They had just arrived a few minutes ago when they saw Kace already in the mansion.
He looked tired with bags under his eyes.
Internally, Kace was cursing at Xavier for making him work so much. Another group of kidnappers had captured a few girls, but unfortunately for them, they were toote. The girls had been taken to the main hideout where they would be kept until they were sold.
They couldn’t find the girls since that areacked awork and was untraceable. So for the past two days, he had been trying his best to find the location where they would be trafficked to pedophiles. But so far, nothing good hase out of it.
"Does this mean you can now have your property back?" Kace asked.
"Yes," said Xavier. "I will have mywyer look into this. After that, he will get new property documents ready for you and when Robert Harrison signs them, you will have all your properties back," he added.
Tears brimmed in Selene’s eyes, she couldn’t believe what she was hearing. Everything suddenly felt easy for her.
Remembering something, she parted her lips to speak, "When I went to my dad’s office this week while searching for the files, I saw something."
"What did you see?" Kace asked, curiosityced in his tone.
"It was another property paper, but this one had the name <i>Jeffery rk</i> written on it. I found it in his drawer," she replied.
Instantly, she noticed the change in expression on Kace and Xavier’s faces. Their expressions shifted to ones of clear distaste, brows furrowing and lips curling slightly as they nced at her.
"Who is Jeffery rk?" She asked.
