Be Spoiled After Rebirth (Selena and Osvaldo)

Chapter 1713 Reunion

He had once said that as long as she called his name, no matter where he was in the world, he would cback to her side.

Selena softly called out his name, over and over again.

Her light and gentle voice reached the man who had also arrived at their place of separation. It drew him closer step by step.

He looked at the little girl in front of him, crying and calling out his nlike an abandoned animal under the flower rack. The

man's eyes were calm like a still pond, but mixed with two emotions: heartache and destruction.

Slowly walking towards her, he reached out from behind and tightly embraced her into his arms.

Selena suddenly froze. She remained motionless on the spot like a delicate statue. The atmosphere felt like frozen film.

After what seemed like an eternity, Selena slowly turned around to see a familiar face wearing a mask. Behind that mask were two

pure black eyes staring intently at her face without moving.

Tears shimmered in Selena's eyes as if she was dreaming - scared yet anticipating - she lifted up her hand with trembling fingers to

touch that mask.

Slowly but surely, it was as if she was uncovering a secret when Selena removed that mask revealing behind it an extremely

familiar pale handsface.

At this moment, tstood still.

Selena slowly blinked her eyes, then blinked again as she confirmed that the person in front of her was real. Suddenly, she burst

into tears and threw herself at him. "Where have you been? Why did you cback now..."

"I've been waiting for you for so long..."

Osvaldo reached out his hands and tightly embraced his lover, his wife.

He was sorry it took him so long to cback.

He was sorry he made her wait so long.

He was sorry he made her sad.

Under the sunshine, a pair of lovers who had been separated for a year finally reunited.

The news of the queen's elopement quickly spread throughout the entire court. The nobles were in an uproar. This matter

concerning the state also caused negative discussions among the people.

The queen's faction turned pale when they heard this news.

The high priest held his cane and stared at Carly kneeling on the ground with guards around her. "Where did Her Majesty go?"

Carly gritted her teeth. "Your Excellency, I... | really don't know."

The Grand Minister's kind expression remained unchanged, but his eyes betrayed a hint of severity. "Carly, you should know that if

this matter is not resolved perfectly, the Queen's reputation will be severely damaged."

"If the Regent uses this as an excuse to attack... the consequences are not something you can bear!"

Carly trembled slightly but persisted in keeping silent and whispered, "It's all my fault. If you want to punish someone, please

punish me!"

The Grand Minister stared at Carly for a long tbefore slowly saying," Carly, although | am old and do not interfere much in

worldly affairs anymore, | am not ignorant of Her Majesty's intentions."

"A qualified emperor must first ensure that emotions do not cloud their judgment."

"This time... Her Majesty has disappointed us greatly."

Carly's heart tightened. "Your Excellency, Her Majesty has been by your side since childhood and was raised by your hand. From

childhood to adulthood she has never been willful or capricious. Please... help her this time!"

The Grand Minister stared at Carly on the kneeling carpet for a long tbefore suddenly raising his voice," Guards!"

Two guards walked in from outside.

"Carly colluded with bandits and kidnapped the Queen! Take her away!"

Although Carly had committed a crime, she felt relieved and deeply bowed down to the Grand Minister."Thank you Your

Excellency!"

The impact of the Queen's elopement versus being kidnapped was completely different.

The wedding proceeded as scheduled.

The members of the royal family and nobility had already heard about the queen's runaway bride news, but the court had not yet

responded directly to it. At this moment, they sat in the hall with complex thoughts, waiting for the final result.

In a beautifully decorated church, everything was ready for the wedding except for two people.

At noon on time, when the wedding was supposed to start, there was still no sign of the queen.

Rumors becmore credible as tpassed.

The nobles could no longer wait and began discussing it one after another.

Just then, there was a commotion outside.

The high priestess cin on her wheelchair with Stanley by her side. Her expression was indifferent and gave away nothing

about what she thought.

Lillian sitting in front noticed Stanley's face and smiled at him. "Mr. Soo as today's groom? It is tto change into your suit."

Stanley coldly glanced at Lillian before speaking in a clear voice that everyone could hear: "I'm sorry everyone; due to an

unexpected illness affecting Queen Selena's health we have decided to cancel today's ceremony."

There was sudden silence throughout the room. If even Stanley said so as a groom-to-be himself - did that mean that Queen

Selena really ran away from her own wedding?

The high priestess twirled a bead between her long fingers while thinking about how she originally planned to frCarly instead

but Stanley stopped her saying Selena would not agree with such actions.

If Selena's trust caused harm to those around her, she would feel guilty and upset. Therefore, that plan beca backup plan. It

would only be used as a last resort when there was no other option. Perhaps they could delay until Selena returned? Before that,

they could only stabilize the situation.

Lillian smiled with a clear sense of competition in her eyes and said, "| just received snews that Her Majesty is not happy with

this marriage and ran away from it without permission. Now hearing Mr. Soo's words, could it be true?"

Stanley felt a pang in his heart but showed no anger or sadness on his face as he replied, "Miss Governor is exaggerating. Her

Majesty is just unwell and did not run away from the marriage."

"Mr. Soo!" Lillian suddenly becserious with a hint of sarcasm and coldness in her voice as she continued, "Before you say

these things, have you considered your own family? If Her Majesty did not run away from the marriage but was simply unwell then

can we... see her for ourselves?"

The Su family was an influential aristocratic family in the empire just like Lillian's family.

Although Stanley chose to endure this humiliation for Selena's sake it didn't mean that the Su family would tolerate it too.

If Selena dared to provoke discord between Stanley and Robert then Lillian naturally wouldn't mind adding fuel to the fire at this

time.

Stanley looked at Lillian coldly about to speak when suddenly the High Priest raised his hand stopping him saying,"Enough, Mr.

Soo."

The excuse of being unwell couldn't hold up if Selena herself wasn't present at court.

Even if it might backfire, Carly had no choice but to sacrifice herself in this situation. She would willingly take on all the blfor

Selena. This could also serve as a way to teach the queen, who has been recently indecisive and fickle-minded, a lesson.

The high priest chuckled at this idea...
