Reclaiming Her Heart

Chapter 730 I Won't Let Anything Happen to You

Selena took a deep breath and said to the leading man, "Alright, let's play a game."

The guy thought he misheard. Seriously? At a time like this, she wanted to play a game?

But Selena looked up at him. "You've already taken over the whole building. I ain't going anywhere. That thing's super important to you, and it's just as important to me. You could off a bunch of random folks, and I wouldn't even flinch. So let's play a game. If I lose, I'll spill where my mom hid the thing."

The guy raised an eyebrow and pointed the gun at her forehead. "You think I'll buy that?"

Selena didn't even flinch, just stared at him coolly. "You got no choice but to believe me. Only I know where it's stashed."

"Ms. Fair, do you even know what we're after?" the guy asked.

The gun was now practically touching Selena's forehead. One wrong word, and she was toast. Anyone else would've passed out from fear by now, but Selena stayed chill. "You looking for something that looks like a jellyfish, a seal?" Selena didn't really remember, but seeing the jellyfish tattoo on the guy's hand, she suddenly recalled seeing something like that at home before.

It was a seal shaped like a jellyfish. Because it was so uniquely shaped, she remembered it. But that thing was just used as a table mat at home.

Once, Barbara was holding it and examining it, and she asked her, "Selena, is this pretty?"

"Mom, it's weird. It looks so weird."

Barbara patted her head. "Remember what this thing looks like. It might be useful someday, but I hope you never have to use it. You're my daughter. If you ever get bullied, this will be useful."

The family was dirt poor back then, and she didn't have much to play with. Barbara suggested playing hide and seek, hiding something from each other, and if the other found it, they lost. Selena hid a small carrot, and Barbara hid the jellyfish-shaped seal.
