Heartbreak Brings Mr. Right -
Chapter 471
As if he had never been crazy about her before.
Exiting the car, Selah strode into the apartment building, her posture erect, seemingly indifferent to everything around her.
But as soon as the door closed behind her, tears cascaded down her cheeks like an uncontainable flood.
Suppressing her sobs with one hand covering her mouth, she clutched the door handle tightly to stifle any sound.
Slowly, she slid down against the door, her emotions overwhelming her.
Outside, Arturo remained seated in the car.
Though separated by just a door, they felt as distant as if separated by an entire world.
During the conversation between Arturo and Miranda, Selah, leaning against the bedroom door, had overheard most of their exchange.
Previously, Selah had been perplexed by Miranda’s unkindness and the burden of menial tasks imposed upon her.
She had been grateful to Miranda for taking her in after her mother’s passing and had never voiced any grievances.
It dawned on her that Miranda’s behavior was rooted in revenge against her all along.
Arturo’s declarations of affection towards her and his desire to marry her appeared to be nothing more than lies.
Selah grappled with the realization that she didn’t truly know how many other women Arturo might have been involved with.
It was possible he was upset about not winning her over previously, leading him to fabricate those absurd lies to deceive her.
She wondered if he still perceived her as just the humble maid from their past.
Or maybe this was a part of his revenge against her?
Despite Selah’s lack of love for Arturo now, her heart still throbbed with inexplicable pain.
Tears streamed down her face as she wiped them away.
After a prolonged moment, she gradually calmed herself, sinking to the ground and tenderly embracing herself.
Ever since Selah could remember, she’d lacked a father.
She and her mother had relied solely on each other.
Her mother possessed the most beautiful countenance and the kindest heart imaginable.
How could such a thing have happened?
What exactly happened back then?
What had led to these irreversible tragedies that reshaped Selah’s destiny?
Perhaps she would never receive answers for the rest of her life.
Slowly rising, she made her way toward her dwelling.
She hadn’t truly had a home before, but now, wherever Elaine resided, that was her home.
For Elaine’s sake, Selah vowed to remain strong.
The following afternoon, Lindsey arranged to meet Shelia’s ex-boyfriend at a local coffee shop.
“Did you tell Shelia what I said last time? What did she say?” the man asked impatiently as he settled into his seat.
Lindsey took a sip of her coffee and met his gaze steadily.
“You haven’t seen her?”
At this, the man brimmed with resentment.
Gritting his teeth, he said, “I tried every means to contact her, but she just didn’t see me.
She even had me taken to the police station.
I spent a day in custody before being released.
”
Lindsey raised her eyebrows slightly.
His account aligned precisely with her assumptions.
