Chapter 1369 Meeting at a Narrow Road
In the midst of the mist, Selena's expression was somewhat blurred. It wasn't until she finished drinking a cup of tea seriously and
placed the teacup down that she looked up at Leon. "l only target those who have harmed my mother. As long as the Riddle family
doesn't side with and protect them, | won't do anything to other members of the Riddle family."
After saying this, Selena nodded at Leon and stood up and walked out. Leon looked at the slender figure of the girl and lowered his
eyelids. She was still as cold as ever...
Lady Lauren had not been shopping for long with Hattie when Selena arrived with Leia. As soon as Hattie saw her, she immediately
ran up and asked, "Selena, did they bully you?!"
Selena looked at her eager eyes and smiled, "No."
Seeing that Selena didn't seem unhappy, Hattie put her heart at ease.
Lady Lauren walked over with a fan and sighed slightly. "Selena, | was wondering... did you forget about the engagement between
you and my son?"
Selena coughed guiltily. "No, | had planned to finish my work first and then prepare for it."
Please forgive her! As a warrior in daily life for over ten years, someone has always arranged everything for her. She really can't
think that much about everyday life. Moreover, the Turner family has no female relatives, and no one reminds her deliberately, so
Selena really didn't care about the engagement between her and Osvaldo.
Actually, she wasn't completely indifferent. It was just that she didn't know what she should do.
Lady Lauren sneered and probably saw the awkward situation of she. She waved her fan and said, "Follow me."
Selena held Hattie's hand and obediently followed.
Lady Lauren took Selena to a tastefully decorated shop. The shop was spacious, and the air was filled with the fragrance of
precious sandalwood.

The female shopkeeper, dressed in a dark green cheongsam, was embroidering by the frame. She lifted her head when she heard
footsteps and a faint surprise flashed in her eyes when she saw the beautiful ladies cin.
Standing up calmly, she said with a smile, "Madam, Miss Turner, Miss Riddle."
Lady Lauren took Selena to sit down, and then said with a smile, "Last t| chere, | ordered a batch of clothes for my
daughter-in-law. Today, | happen to have sfree time, so | brought her here to try on sclothes."
The news of the engagement between Miss Turner and the young master of the Anderson family had already spread in high society
circles.
The cheongsam shopkeeper stared at Selena for a moment and said in a gentle voice, "Please wait a moment."
Then she turned and went upstairs.
Selena rarely cinto contact with this style of things, and she was curious for a rare moment, looking around. Then she was
amazed by the embroidery on the embroidery frame.
Indeed, anything valued by Lady Lauren must be good.
Hattie looked for a moment and asked, "Madam Laurence, is this the shop opened by Lady Lola?"
Lady Lauren pinched Hattie's cheeks and said, "You're very smart."
Seeing Selena's puzzled expression, Hattie explained to her, "Selena, Lady Lola is the top embroiderer in the capital. Her
embroidery pieces are all fought over by those women in the capital."
"My mother has chere to order clothes a few times when she needs to perform on stage in the future."
While she was talking, Lady Lola cdown from upstairs with a tray in her hand and walked up to Selena. There was a fiery red
dress on the tray, "Madam Selena, please try it on."
Selena knew this was Lady Lauren's kindness, and there was no reason to refuse, so she took the dress into the fitting room.
"There are a few more upstairs. Madam, cupstairs withto take a look."
Lady Lauren instructed Hattie for a few words and went upstairs with Lady Lola.
Hattie and Leia waited downstairs for Selena.
And during this gap, two people suddenly walked in from outside the door. A man and a woman.
The woman had a gentle appearance, with her hair tied up into an exquisite bun with a white jade hairpin, and was wearing a
vintage white dress. Her skin was white, and her whole person exuded an obvious elegance.
As for the man...
Hattie frowned at the young man who walked in, and Leia looked unfriendly.
Obviously, the people who walked in from outside did not expect to see them.
After a moment of surprise, his gaze almost subconsciously swept around the shop, not seeing who he wanted to see, before finally
falling on Hattie's face.
He smiled slightly, "Hattie, did you chere alone?"
Hattie, although a bit unhappy, still politely greeted, "Hello, Alfie."
Alfie raised his hand and touched her hair.
This was something he used to do often.
Hattie pushed his hand away, wrinkling her nose, and dissatisfiedly said, "Alfie, I'm not a child anymore!"
The woman next to Alfie also looked at Hattie and smiled, "What a cute child, Mr. Soo, won't you introduce me?"
Alfie's tone was very plain, "This is Miss Riddle."

The woman hesitated for a moment, then nodded at Hattie and said in a gentle tone, "Hello, Miss Riddle, I'm Aurelia Bennett."
Although Hattie didn't like to interact with strangers, she still said, "Hello," then turned and ran away.
Leia had been pretending not to see the two people from beginning to end.
Aurelia chuckled, "This child is really lively."
Alfie's expression was warm, and it was impossible to tell what he was thinking. "What do you want to buy?"
Aurelia looked around the store.
The clothes on the shelves were good, but there were many exquisite jewelry items on display that would catch the eye of any girl
who loves beauty.
Aurelia was no exception. She walked in front of the shelves and occasionally picked up an item to play with, but didn't choose any.
Leia stood shoulder to shoulder with Hattie outside the fitting room, with synchronized expressions, staring at the two people
opposite as if they were facing a great enemy.
Alfie stood at the door patiently waiting for Aurelia to make a selection.
After looking for a moment, Aurelia soon picked up an ancient-looking and delicate wooden hairpin and walked up to Alfie, asking
softly, "Mr. Soo, how about this one?"
Alfie glanced at it and his tone was still plain, "If you like it, then it's good."
Aurelia's expression dimmed for a moment, but her tone still carried a smile. "Mr. Soo, you're mistaken. This is for men, it's not
suitable for girls."
Alfie's expression didn't show any embarrassment. "lI was mistaken."
Aurelia's face changed.
The atmosphere becawkward for a moment.
And in this silence, the bead curtain of the fitting room was suddenly lifted from inside.
