Selena noticed something off about Jolie's expression and asked curiously, "You don't like this place?" "No."

Jolie shook her head, suppressing the thoughts swirling in her mind, and followed Selena into the villa. "Madam, you're back."

Jolie smiled, taking a couple of steps forward. "Will my brother-in-law come here?"

Selena gave her a peculiar look. "Why do you ask?"
