Selena obediently let him hold her hand, her eyes curiously looking at the Gailo Family people.
Samuel stared at their intertwined fingers, the expression in his eyes almost collapsing.
Albert, who was originally bowing his head, suddenly lifted it and looked at Selena.
Perhaps knowing his death was imminent, he brazenly scrutinized Selena.
His eyes filled with a greedy expression, "Hey, beauty... we et again."
Albert truly defined what it ans to court death thoroughly.
Selena frowned.
Sterling’s eyes flashed with a murderous intent.
He reached out a hand to block Selena’s view.
While the black-clad bodyguards of the Colombo Family were still unresponsive, he directly grabbed the gun from the hand of a nearby man in black.
Without rcy, he fired two shots at Albert’s eyes.
’Bang!’ ’Bang!’
The bullet accurately embedded itself in Albert’s eyes.
"Ahhhhh!"
Albert’s scream echoed.
Even the black-clad bodyguards of the Colombo Family were a bit startled by the sudden gunshots.
They instinctively aid their guns at Sterling.
The scene instantly beca tense.
Even Selena was shocked by Sterling’s action.
She subconsciously tugged tighter on Sterling’s sleeve.
Sterling’s expression remained unchanged as he looked at Samuel, "Just a little lesson for him. Young Master Colombo, you don’t mind, do you?"
Samuel’s gaze darkened slightly, raising his hand to signal his n to lower their weapons.
"As you wish."
Just losing two eyes, too cheap for him.
Originally, he didn’t want to be so ruthless to the Gailo Family, but... who told him to be so blind?
How dare he covet his sister.
"Sorry for bothering this lady, I’ll send a gift later to express my apologies."
Samuel suddenly looked at Selena.
His deanor completely like a host treating his distinguished guest.
Restrained and detached.
Selena was taken aback, "Uh... no need."
Since Samuel wanted to pretend not to know her, she also couldn’t act familiar with him.
To avoid causing him trouble.
Samuel heard her words, a barely noticeable hint of regret flashed across his eyes.
Then he lightly nodded.
Once the Colombo Family had taken the Gailo Family people away, Lisa led them to the cabins on the ship.
*
In the cabin.
Selena stood on the outside balcony, looking at the dark sky.
Waves swept across the sea as the cruise sailed.
Sterling ca over and draped a coat over her shoulders.
Selena adjusted the coat around her and tilted her head to smile at him.
"When can this ship return to the port of Isle of Cyrin?"
She asked.
"By tomorrow morning."
Selena paused, "Does that an we can return to Aethelgard tomorrow?"
"...Mm, do you not want to go back?"
Sterling looked at her.
Selena shook her head, "Not really... it’s just, it’s been a long ti since I’ve felt so relaxed these past few days."
Without trivial matters, just being with him.
Just indulging in their world alone.
Selena even felt a sense of indulgence and waste in these past few days.
She even wanted to forget her past.
But...
There are more and more mysteries ahead of her.
The truth of her parents’ deaths, the truth of her past life’s death, and the Heavenly Master Bloodline on her and Sterling...
Everything is still waiting for her to uncover.
Sterling was silent for a while, "Whenever you want, it’s possible."
Selena smiled, "I want to, but I can’t now."
What woman wouldn’t want to be imrsed in the sweetness of love, but she can’t.
