Although Selene sympathized with her father, she still didn’t like how they stayed separated.


    "It may seem far-fetched, but I want aplete family," she finished, ncing between her parents who held nk expressions on their faces, which were unable to read. "Like I said before, I’m not nning on divorcing Xavier. I love him."


    "Does Thomas and his family know you are my daughter?" Jeffrey suddenly asked, making Selene pause her mouth for a few seconds.


    Selene shook her head. "Xavier said he ns to tell them soon."


    "And do you think they would want you to stay married to him when they find out?"


    "I don’t care what anyone thinks. I want to make this right."


    "And how are you going to do that?"


    Selene’s head snapped towards the direction of that voice.


    Tracie was leaning on the wall with arms crossed around her chest as she chewed gum.


    "Do you think any ideas you try will reunite the Wace and rk family? You must think you are an angel, aren’t you?" Tracie daunted, a smirk on her lips.


    Nora warned Tracie with a re not to say anything anymore, but thetter turned blind eyes to her res.


    "Do you think I want to sit down and rx while I watch my inws and family fight?" Selene questioned back, her fist clenched by her side.


    "Why not? That’s the only thing you can do since you refuse to divorce the son of your father’s enemy," Tracie mocked.


    ’She’s pushing it,’ Selene thought to herself as she tried to hold back her anger. She kept on reminding herself that Tracie was her sister, and she shouldn’t hit her sister.


    But no matter how much she told herself that, the urge still kicked in.


    "Tracie, that’s enough!! If you don’t have anything good to say, then you can just leave," Jeffrey warned Tracie.


    Tracie shook her head slightly, as if disappointed before she walked away.


    "What is her problem?" Selene questioned no one in particr. "Has she made it a goal to always make things hard for me? Since the other day, she acts as if I’m her worst enemy," she mumbled to herself, her anger palpable. "Has she always hated me like this?" She wondered out loud.


    Nora shook her head.


    "Tracie never hated you, not even once. She was the most worried when you disappeared. At just 6 years old, she took care of you like a mother would a child, she was so fond of you," the middle-aged woman exined, which earned her a frown from Selene.


    "But..." Selene trailed off ncing between them one time since there definitely would be a <i>but. </i>


    "After your disappearance, she suddenly changed. She wished you were never found," Jeffrey finished on behalf of his wife. "Tracie is not the type of person who speaks about her feelings, and whenever we tried to understand her, she only grew more distant."


    Selene’s frown only deepened as confusion clouded her expression.


    ’So she’s not exactly an enemy?’ She wondered.


    "Tracie wille around dear, you just need to be patient with your sister. You must remember, she doesn’t hate you," Nora added, patting Selene gently on the back, like she’d done with Tracie earlier.


    Selene could only nod at their words, but she didn’t dare make a promise.


    Tracie hadn’t physically attacked her yet, but she wasn’t going to wait until she did so. One more hatefulment towards hering from Tracie, she was going to question thetter and maybe they would exchange a few punches here and there.


    "After my movie tour Father," she began,pletely changing the subject. "After my tour, I will arrange for Wace and rk to have dinner together and resolve their issues."


    Jeffrey smiled at her, admiring her willingness to end a family feud, although he doubted he could ever bring himself to forgive Thomas Wace for what he’d done.


    "Whenever you are ready dear," Nora replied.


    Nora asked Selene a few questions regarding her acting career, as she admired that one of her daughters was into a legal career.


    ’I’m so d she isn’t out there killing people like Tracie is doing,’ Nora thought to herself with a sigh.


    Selene was also questioned about her current revenge n on the Harrison family, which she mentioned would begin as soon as she returned from her movie tour. She would need to travel in the next two days for it.


    ’Michelle hasn’t contacted me since ourst conversation at the Dreamscape building. Is she waiting for me to strike?’ Selene wondered. ’Well, she’d better, because I’m not going to make things easy for them as soon as I arrive."
