Chapter 118

Speak of the devil and he shall appear. Selina quirked the corner of her lips, admiring the manicure she had just finished as she rose gracefully. "Alright, Lydia, time for me to greet the guest and have some fun." "Okay"

By the time Selina arrived in the living room, Lauren was pacing anxiously, looking like a bundle of nerves. As soon as she saw Selina, she rushed over as if she had seen a lifesaver, trying to grab Selina's hand but was smoothly avoided without a word. "Lauren, if you have something to say, say ii. Don't tug at me and ruin my fresh manicure."

Lauren began tentatively, almost pleading. "Selina, I know it was my daughter who messed up, but we are family after all. Can't you just not pressure Trevon to kick Madelyn out of the Hudson family?" Selina let out a cold laugh. "You remember we're family now? I seem to recall you and Madelyn lord it over me before. And when you tried to ruin my reputation, did you consider me Trevon's wife?" "All the wrongs are Madelyn's fault, I admit. But she's still a child: She doesn't understand!"

"The first time I've ever seen a twenty-year-old child. She's legally an adult and it's time she took responsibility for her actions. I've let my husband handle this. If you want to beg for mercy, go talk to him. After those words, Selina instructed Devin to see her out.

Lauren, realizing there would be no sympathy from Selina, clutched her purse tight with a resentful expression. "Selina, don't you gloat! I won't let this go easily."

Without turning back, Selina responded coolly, Lauren, safe travels, no need for me to walk you out.

Once Lauren had left, Devin, who vaguely knew the background of the incident, approached Selina to offer a word of caution: "Looks like Mrs. Lauren Hudson is about to play her trump card."

"Trevon's biological mother? I heard she remarried a foreigner and settled abroad. Let her play whatever card she brings to the table. I trust my husband will handle it fairly"

Trevon came home later that evening and joined Selina for dinner, discussing the matter of expelling Christina and Madelyn from the Hudson family due to her misconduct.
