Chapter 1365 What a Joke!
When Osvaldo returned in the evening, he saw two girls with similar appearances sitting opposite each other in the garden.
Selena was speaking slowly, and Hattie was listening attentively, occasionally asking questions.
The chessboard between them was filled with black and white pieces, forming an extremely profound momentum as Selena moved
them one by one.
The man stood quietly under the tree until it was late in the evening before he walked over, took Selena's hand, and led her back
to the brightly lit hall.
The next morning, Selena drove back to the Turner family.
The butler was surprised to see the young lady returning alone and immediately welcomed her in, explaining in a low voice,
"Master Oscar cback late last night and went to Zone Six early this morning."
"Master Patrick is in the research institute, and has not yet back. I'll call him."
Selena has too many important things to do now that she has becthe director of the research institute.
The Turner family has cultivated many talents over the years, so Selena has already done the most important things, and the rest
doesn't require her personal attention.
Selena shook her head.
Although she said that, the butler still called Patrick.
Selena rarely returned to the Turner family. Whenever Patrick received news that Selena was coming home, he would put down
whatever he was doing and cback even if he was busy. But today, Oscar had already returned from Zone Six, and Patrick still
hadn't cback even until evening.
Selena curled up in her room and read books all day.
When Oscar learned that the young lady had been waiting at hall day, he sent someone to invite her down for dinner.
Selena walked down and scanned the hall before sitting across from Oscar. "Will Patrick cback tonight?"
Oscar's tone was light. "The research institute has too much work, and he's been very busy these days."

"I see..." Selena's eyes darkened slightly, but she didn't press the matter. She accompanied Oscar for lunch and then drove back to
her villa.
After Selena left, the butler looked in the direction she had left and muttered, "Young Master didn't even give Miss Selena a call
today..."
Normally, if Patrick learned that Selena was waiting at the Turner family, even if he couldn't leave, he would certainly call her. But
not today.
Oscar lowered his eyelids, hiding the expression in his eyes, "There are sthings that she's better off knowing than not
knowing."
Selena had cback today specifically to ask, and Freddie was using this as a condition to threaten Patrick.
Once this secret was exposed, their fake sibling relationship would no longer be sustainable.
The butler hesitated before speaking, "I'm afraid the young lady might overthink things..."
A child who grew up without parents and was all alone in the world, if even her elder brother was deliberately avoiding her, she
would likely be hurt.
Oscar remained silent.
Compared to overthinking, the pain of finding out the truth was irreversible. Once Selena knew the truth, this child probably would
never return to the Turner family again.
Patrick didn't want to hurt Selena.
But...
Oscar turned his wheelchair and headed up the stairs.
Selena was driving in the evening breeze.
There was a hint of irritation in her eyes.
Cassius knew she wasn't the real Selena and had told Freddie this secret. Freddie couldn't possibly not use this ready-made
leverage to threaten the Turner family.
Patrick obviously knew something.
But even if he knew her true identity, the research institute was a common goal for her and the Turner family, and Patrick couldn't
persuade her to give up her bid for the position of the research institute's director to benefit the Shaw and Poole families.
Clearly, besides this fact, the other side must have something else that could threaten the Turner family.
Selena had cback to the Turner family today to get to the bottom of this matter.
Unless necessary, she never avoided the worst possible outcomes.
The research institute had already been regained, and once she wrapped up things in the other worlds, it wouldn't be so
troublesome.
The capital's affairs would soon be over.
She would also soon return home.
For both her and the Turner family, it might be a good thing to draw a clear line with them before contacting the federal
authorities.
The only thing Selena hadn't expected was that Patrick would actually avoid her.
If Freddie really told Patrick about the fact that she was impersonating Selena and had a blood relationship with the Turner family's
enemies, there was no reason for him to tolerate her continuing to occupy the position of the Turner family's young miss.
So... what had she missed?
Selena was pondering a problem when she accidentally drove over the speed limit and was pulled over by traffic police at an
intersection.
Looking at the two traffic police officers standing at the door and knocking on her car window, Selena hesitated for a moment.
One minute later, Selena obediently got out of the car wearing sunglasses, a mask, and a hat.
The two traffic police officers originally thought that the person who could drive at such a terrifying speed must be a very skilled
man.

But they didn't expect that a young girl would cout of the driver's seat.
Although she lowered her head, her slender figure and childish breath made her look like a minor...
If the other party was an adult, they would be fined. But if she was a minor... this would be a big problem.
The traffic police frowned and asked for her ID. Selena lowered her voice and said she had forgotten to bring it.
Half an hour later, Selena was forcibly taken to the traffic police department.
She sat on a chair, with her hair draped over her shoulders and wearing a cotton skirt, looking very cute and well-behaved.
However, no matter how they asked, she refused to take off her mask and sunglasses.
The others in the traffic police department didn't really believe that she had violated any rules until they watched the surveillance
footage and saw how fast she had been driving. They all looked at her in shock.
The police officer started questioning her as usual, "Are you an adult?"
Selena hesitated, wanting to say that she was already married.
But since she was not old enough to receive a marriage certificate according to her ID, she was afraid that her husband Osvaldo
would be under scrutiny if she said she was married. So she obediently said, "I am nineteen years old."
The interrogating officer looked her up and down for a while and said, "I don't think you're even eighteen. Do you have a driver's
license?"
Selena didn't know what a driver's license was.
Although the traffic police couldn't see her face clearly, they could feel her bewildered expression and her lips twitching.
Not wanting to scold such a pretty girl, the officer decided to educate her parents when they arrived. "Wait here. You can't leave
until your parents arrive."
Selena thought it would be a big joke if she waited for someone to cand redeem her. "I have an urgent matter and | have to
leave," she said.
But the traffic police officer glared at her, as if she was looking at a delinquent teenage girl, "Even if you have an urgent matter,
you can't drive over the speed limit!"
