Chapter 1717 - The Weather Has Changed
Carly was startled by Selena's sudden turn away from the administrative hall and towards the door. "My mother is not feeling well,
please do not disturb her," she said as she walked inside.
Selena knew that it was impossible to make Madam Samantha leave completely. All they could do was try to keep her away from
the upcoming bloody crime.
Finally understanding what Selena meant, Carly opened her mouth to speak but Selena turned back towards her. "Carly, you
haven't toldyet who gave you that note to give me," she asked.
Carly's heart skipped a beat and she quickly kneeled down. "Your Highness, please don't askthat question because... | cannot
answer it."
"You just need to remember that whoever it is... won't harm you."
Selena looked straight at Carly with all of her memories restored and instantly felt reassured. She smiled and said, "Don't be
nervous, I'm just asking a question. | won't force anything on you."
"But if something happens with him, you must tellright away okay?"
Carly breathed a sigh of relief and nodded before trying to say something else but Selena had already turned around and spoke
first. "Mr. Soo should be arriving soon so go greet him inside."
As Carly looked at Selena's calm demeanor with cold eyes, she suppressed the waves of shock in her heart before bowing
respectfully and leaving the room.
Not long after Stanley walked in.
He saw a woman dressed in white sitting elegantly under the eaves with black hair flowing down like silk strands.
Perhaps due to experiencing transformation from girlhood into womanhood process - there were now deep traces of happiness
between those eyebrows
Upon hearing a sound, Selena turned her head and met Stanley's gaze, unflinching. Their eyes locked onto each other.

In that moment, something heavy hung in the air.
After a long pause, Selena spoke first. "Stanley."
He looked at her quietly, his fingertips turning white.
"Do you have something to say to me?" she asked.
Stanley gazed deeply into her eyes and smiled tenderly with an unprecedented sincerity. "Selena, | like you. A lot... | really do."
Selena smiled back at him. "You're my best friend, my most loyal partner; we grew up together as childhood sweethearts and will
build an empire together."
That was all there was to it.
Her heart belonged to another man.
Her gaze and tone clearly conveyed this message.
On this early morning with the sun just beginning its ascent into the sky, Stanley finally confessed his love for the girl he had grown
up alongside holding dear in his arms.
Selena took his confession seriously but firmly rejected it because she did not love him back - not in that way anyway - as
evidenced by her unwavering gaze upon him.
She had always been like this since she was young, steadfastly rejecting what she didn't like and continuously liking what she did.
After stime, Stanley finally withdrew his gaze.
He sat down across from Selena and his tone becserious. "There has been a lot of activity in the administrative hall this
morning. Miss Governor may not be able to sit still!"
Selena smiled calmly and took on the topic. "Osvaldo is back, which means that behind me, | not only have the support of Riddle
Group's empire but also..."
"In this situation," she continued as her pale fingertips picked up a chess piece from the board with a snap sound, "if she wants to
killagain, it's already impossible."
"But forto kill her is as easy as flipping my hand."
"So..." Selena said while holding up another chess piece. "The best way is to completely eliminate all threats before Osvaldo's
forces are mobilized."
"This is her only chance of winning!"
Lillian knew better than anyone else that once Selena caught her breath, she would definitely send her to military court on charges
of regicide.
Miss Governor would probably rather die than suffer such humiliation.
She wanted nothing more than to turn things around and put those who sanctioned her on the gallows instead.
Stanley did not refute Selena's words.
Miss Lillian had already committed regicide; launching an open rebellion was nothing compared to that kind of thing.
According to Miss Governor's courage and power, there was no doubt that such a thing could be done by her alone.
Stanley looked at Selena. "Your Majesty, what do you plan on doing?"
Selena didn't look up; instead sliding another chess piece with her pale fingers. "It's tfor us both make our final decision."
After years of understanding, Stanley instantly understood Selena's decision. He furrowed his brow slightly, as if he wanted to
dissuade her, but considering Selena's temperament, the words remained unspoken.
Lillian was the culprit who caused Selena to experience all of this. Selena couldn't give up and had a chance to punish Lillian
herself. Moreover, as an emperor with pride and dignity, she wouldn't allow herself to make any retreats. She would personally face
Lillian and punish her - even kill her!
Stanley stood up and looked at Selena with deep eyes. He gently reminded her, "Your Majesty, be careful."
As the ruler for many years now in power tonight will not only be chaotic within the palace walls; there is also that man! In this
situation he needed to protect something else that mattered more to Selena: stability and peace in their empire.
Selena smiled suddenly as if she remembered something important and asked aloud,"Have they found out about the person Lillian
brought back?"

Stanley was silent for a few seconds before saying,"Robert should have discovered something because Miss Regent had him locked
up."
Selena raised an eyebrow in response.
Who exactly is the person that made Lillian lock up Robert for him?
And at this critical moment...
Of course, Selena didn't expect that because of this, Robert and Lillian would really turn against each other.
Both she and Lillian knew it was impossible.
Selena knocked on the table. "After tonight, find a way to locate the other party. If you find him, don't hurt him and bring him to
me.
Stanley nodded and then looked in a certain direction behind Selena before turning around and leaving.
After Stanley left, Osvaldo appeared in the pavilion.
He walked over and hugged Selena into his arms, raising his hand to touch her forehead. "Why are you awake so early?"
It seemed like he had been gone for a year but his little girl had grown quite a bit since then.
If it were before, based on how much he had tossed around last night, she would have definitely slept until dawn.
If only he knew she would wake up so early... he wouldn't have left.
On their wedding night, when the bride woke up early in the morning but didn't see her husband by her side...
When Selena heard this question, her snow-white cheeks turned red instantly like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. "Um... I..."
She definitely didn't not want to sleep with him.
It's just...
She was born with a hardworking nature. When Selena saw Lillian at the wedding yesterday, she knew what choice Lillian would
make. For Selena, being able to take the tto finish the wedding and have a wonderful honeymoon was already a luxury.
