Chapter 1398 Trial Court Chief
Selena laughed.
Suddenly, Hattie seemed to remember something and frowned as she said to Selena, "Oh, by the way, Selena, my brother asked
Remembering Manny, whom she had beaten, Selena smiled meaningfully and said, "Don't worry, nothing will happen.”
After hearing Selena's words, the two girls stopped worrying and began to calculate how much money they could earn today.
After the results of the gambling conference cout, not only did the Soo family lose everything, but their family reputation was
also ruined.
It was more humiliating than being rejected by the Turner family last time!
Nicholas was furious, and the servants of the Soo family didn't even dare to make a sound when they walked.
Alfie returned to the Soo family and locked himself in his study.
Aurelia waited outside and waited until it was dark, but Alfie didn't cout.
Heartbroken, Aurelia returned to her own courtyard alone.
As soon as she closed the door, Aurelia knocked all the teacups off the table, unable to control the resentment on her dignified and
beautiful face.
She was so humiliated and wronged, but Alfie didn't even comfort her...
This fact made Aurelia heartbroken and indignant.
She lay on the table and burst into tears.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
Aurelia wiped away her tears and got up to open the door. Wyatt walked in.
Aurelia respectfully called out, "Grandfather."
Wyatt looked at her swollen eyes and said, "The situation in the capital is not something the Bennett family can handle. That man
doesn't love you, and staying here is not good for you."

When Nicholas first cto the Bennett family because of Aurelia's fate, Wyatt had refused.
But Aurelia was stubborn and insisted on going to the capital, so he had no choice but to agree.
Aurelia couldn't control her tears and said, "But Grandfather, | love him..."
Wyatt saw her persistence and frowned, "Why be so persistent for a man who already has someone in his heart?"
Aurelia opened her mouth but couldn't say anything.
Wyatt said in a deep voice, "Don't tellyou haven't realized this!"
How could Aurelia not have noticed?
She had already discovered it when Alfie took Selena's wedding dress as his own. She just didn't want to give up.
Aurelia looked up at Wyatt with tearful eyes and said, "He doesn't lovenow, but he will in the future. As long as | bechis
wife, his heart will return tosomeday..."
Wyatt looked at her disappointedly. "I agreed to the Soo family's proposal of marriage because you said you liked him. But he's not
interested in you at all. Despite this, you still refuse to give up?"
Aurelia knelt in front of Wyatt. "Grandfather, | really like him. If | give up now, | will regret it for the rest of my life..."
Wyatt's face turned colder. "If the Soo family were an ordinary family, it would be fine. But you've seen it today. The Soo family is
lacking in familial affection and full of ambition. If you marry into such a family without your husband's favor, it's like throwing
yourself into a pit of fire!"
Aurelia cried and shook her head, but her eyes were firm. "Grandfather, please fulfill my wish!"
Wyatt looked at Aurelia's determined face and closed his eyes. "Remember, this is your own choice. No matter what happens in the
future, you can't blanyone else."
"You're willing to bet everything for your own future, but | can't let the Bennett family gamble with you."
"Tomorrow morning, | will find an excuse and take Edith back. From now on... take care of yourself."
Aurelia gritted her teeth. "Thank you, grandfather."
Wyatt left.
Aurelia walked to the table and remained silent for a long time. Suddenly, she went to the bed and pulled out a black wooden box
from under the pillow.
She opened the box and stared at its contents for a long tbefore a smile appeared on her lips. "If that woman is gone... how
could he not like me?"
The car stopped outside the Turner family's gate, and Patrick got out of the car and opened the door for Selena.
Selena walked out and called out, "Patrick."
Patrick led her inside and spoke gently. "Nicholas lost face yesterday. He won't let it go easily. Be careful from now on."
It wasn't just Nicholas who lost dignity yesterday.
There was someone even more malicious.
Selena smiled. "It's okay."
Patrick led Selena to the dining table, where Oscar was waiting.
After Selena sat down, she asked, "How's Uncle's recovery?"
Oscar smiled faintly. "Very good."
Without any surprises, he may be able to stand up and start rehabilitation soon.
As soon as the butler saw that all the masters had gathered, he immediately ordered the kitchen to serve the food.
The Turner family was small and rare to have the whole family together for a meal.
After the meal, Oscar asked about the Riddle family.
Selena recounted what Hattie had seen earlier and then said, "It's a bit strange."
"But the Riddle family is in great danger now, and Leon is busy fighting for power. He doesn't have the energy to investigate other
things for the tbeing."
Pausing for a moment, Selena laughed again, "If the place where that woman is located is too peaceful, it's abnormal."

After thinking for a moment, Oscar agreed with Selena's view.
Mainly because the Riddle family is shrouded in mist now, and outsiders cannot see what is happening inside until the result of the
power struggle comes out.
After all, it's the Riddle family's own affairs, and it's not easy for either the Turner family or the Anderson family to intervene.
It's not just the Riddle family; the Soo family is also bound to be unsettled in the future.
Selena thought of the recently stabilized Poole family, feeling indescribable.
The power struggle of the aristocratic families always involves bloodshed.
It depends on... who will die in the end!
Selena temporarily put this matter aside and said to Oscar, "By the way, Uncle, is there anything special happening in the court
recently?"
Oscar looked at her and asked, "What do you mean?"
"The mysterious president in the court, are you familiar with him?"
A hint of something flashed in Oscar's eyes, "Why do you suddenly ask about this?"
He didn't say he was familiar with him, but he didn't say he wasn't either.
But it was certain that they knew each other.
Selena smiled, "Nothing else, just a friend of mine gavea call and said that if | have any problems in the capital, | can go to him
for help."
"But that court president has been away for years and hasn't even been seen since he returned to the capital. | can't find him even
if | want to."
Patrick spoke up and asked, "What do you want him for?"
Selena thought for a moment, "I don't know yet, but | will definitely need him in the future."
Compared to this, there was another thing that she was more curious about.
Oscar lowered his eyelashes and said after a moment, "The court president has a good relationship with the Turner family. As long
as it's not something harmful to the people, he will help the Turner family."
