Chapter 329
At the Brady manor, Trevon and Selina were in the study, playing chess. It was as if the storm raging around the Harvey family had nothing to do with her. Ever since Sofia's appearance at the press conference, Selina had stayed out of it, letting the storm run its course. After all, there were people who would make the Harvey family pay for what they deserved. All Selina needed to do was wait for the result. While the Harvey family faced turmoil, Selina's world was calm. After placing a chess piece, Selina carefully studied the chessboard and pouted. "Darling can't you let me win! I've lost to you so many times already."
Trevon responded, "Honey, with your skill, even if I wanted to let you win, I couldn't. You're too good. I have to give it my all just to keep up with you. No wonder Grandpa always praises you and invites you to play chess with him at the Brady residence.
Selina said. "My relationship with Grandpa has soared rapidly. Lately, even Uncle Keith and the others have taken the initiative to greet me warmly, but I haven't seen you show up once."
Trevon asked. "Are you lecturing me, Honey?"
"Okay, I surrender," she answered.
Seeing Trevon's stare like a hungry wolf, Selina shrank her neck. Just as he was about to reach out for her, Devin knocked on the study door. "Mr. Brady, Mrs. Brady, you have guests." "Who?" Trevon was a little annoyed, clearly displeased with the interruption. However, Devin had always made sound decisions. If he was here, it meant the guests must be important
Devin cleared his throat. "The five members of the Harvey family are here. They want to meet with you both and have something important to discuss
Hearing this, Trevon looked over at Selina. Selina propped her chin on her hand. They're definitely here to pester me. I'm not seeing them."Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
"You heard her. Just tell them that," Trevon said calmly.
"Understood." Devin went to the gates of the Brady manor to inform Patrick and his group that Selina and Trevon refused to see them.
Patrick was not surprised by the refusal. Please let Selina know that we will wait here until she and Trevon are willing to see us
Devin shook his head. "Mr. Harvey, what's the point? Harvey Group needs you all now more than ever. Why are you insisting on seeing Mr. and Mrs. Brady?"
"Harvey Group is beyond saving, and Trevon knows this better than I do. What frustrates me the most right now is wasting time. Patrick said firmly
Devin, seeing the resolve in Patrick's eyes, had nothing more to say. He simply nodded and said. "Suit yourself, before turning to leave.
Time ticked by slowly. Patrick and the others stood at the gates of the Brady manor, motionless like statues. Thunder rumbled and rain began to fall, quickly turning into a torrential downpour. The rain beat down on Patrick and the others. It was late autumn, and with the storms and frigid nighttime temperatures, the cold was almost unbearable. Yet they remained, clinging to a sliver of hope that Selina would agree to meet them Retreating now would mean the end of Harvey Group and the final chance to negotiate with Selina. Seeing that Patrick and his group had stood in the heavy rain for two hours without any sign of leaving. Devin reported back to Trevon and Selina The response remained unchanged. Selina was not going to see them. Meanwhile, she enjoyed a relaxing bath and a good night's sleep, completely Indifferent to the plight of Patrick and his group.
At dawn, the sky cleared, bringing sunlight to Sokovis and a fresh start after the rain. The air felt invigoratingly crisp. As Trevon and Selina were having breakfast, Devin came over again. "Mr. Brady, Mrs. Brady, the five of them are still at the gate.
Trevon was peeling shrimp for Selina. "Did they stay out there all night in the min?"
Devin responded, "Yes, it seems they won't leave without seeing you both?
Trevon glanced at Selina. Selina said lightly, "Let them in."
"Are you serious, Honey? Trevon asked, surprised.
"They've
've thrown away their dignity like this. I'm curious to see what they want from me, Selina replied.
"All right," said Trevon
Patrick and the others were inally allowed into the Brady manor. After spending the night in the ram and cold, they were pate and shivering, with water dripping from their clothes. Devin guided them to a mom with a heater and offered them ginger te Quer they were warned and dried
11.17 AM
they were brought to see Selina and Trevon
In the living room. Patrick and his siblings faced Selina, who stood with her arms crossed beside Trevon, who was seated in the main chair. Given their current predicament, Patrick and the others were essentially prisoners. On the brink of losing their home, they were compelled to seek assistance from Selina, whom they had previously driven away. This was perhaps the most ironic moment in their lives
Trevon spoke indifferently: "Speak up. Don't waste our time. What do you want with Selina?"
Patrick took a deep breath and spoke directly. "Selina. I'm here to ask you to take over Harvey Group"
Selina, initially taken aback, burst into laughter. "Patrick, have you truly lost your mind? Are you asking me to take over Harvey Group! Aren't you worried Quinton and Sara will be furious if they find out?"
"Dad and Mom know they can't undo the harm they've done to you. This decision was reached after much discussion among the five of us, which is why we're here. I believe Mom and Dad would support our decision once they know, Harvey Group is in such dire straits now, and we can't manage it. The only way to fend off our adversaries is with the support of Insight Group, Patrick explained, clenching his fists tightly. Admitting the Harvey family's inferiority to the Brady family, particularly in their pitiable condition, and begging for help from Selina and Trevon was the most humiliating moment of Patrick's life. Patrick thought, This is our only chance to save Harvey Group from falling into the hands of outsiders. 1 must try, no matter how difficult it is.
"Trefuse. You can handle this mess on your own." Selina was eager to see Harvey Group fall into the hands of outsiders, be ruined, and completely destroyed. She thought. It's not my problem. Nonetheless, kicking them when they're down is quite satisfying. Who wouldn't take pleasure in that?
Trevon added lightly, "Selina has already given her answer. You can leave now
Manuel bit his lip and suddenly stood up. "Selina, I know. I'm the one who's wronged you! Patrick, Frederick, Joseph, and Lloyd are innocent. I sided with Ashley, believed her lies, and hurt you. If you need someone to hate, you can hate me alone." "Manuel" his sibling exclaimed.
Patrick, Frederick, Joseph. Lloyd, you were seldom at home during the six months Selina returned to the Harvey residence. The ones who hurt you the most were me. Mom, and Dad. Now Dad's in prison, and his reputation is ruined. Mom, betrayed by both Dad and Ashley, has left Clusia to recover abroad. They've already been punished. As for me, I haven't yet received the punishment I deserve. Selina, tell me, what must I do to let you vent your anger? What will it take for you to help Harvey Group through this crisis? Whatever you say, even if you want me to die right now, I will do it because it's what I owe you!
