Mr. Billionaire Boundless Love

Consequently, the case was deemed solved.

The robber was dead, but the real culprit, in Selene’s eyes, was not caught.

It felt pointless, though, as no one believed her.

Selene thought that the world was unfair. She wished karma were real, but at this point, it felt like there would be no justice for what happened to her.

Since the incident with the thugs in the car park, she has visited and taken care of Austin every day while, at the same time, following the case. But when she found out about its conclusion, she was incredibly infuriated.

During her last visit to the police station, she met Jennifer and Dan, who laughed smugly on her face.

“It’s a shame that your mediocre face was unscathed,” Jennifer had taunted. “But what about your little friend who protected you? It’s okay, though. The two thugs who are responsible will be punished.”

“Don’t worry. You’ll get what’s yours, bitch.” Selene had smiled coldly.

“Looking forward to that.” Jennifer had kept arm-in-arm with Dan as they walked away, but she turned back suddenly. “Oh, I almost forgot; Clint has figured out your true intentions, and he’ll never help you again.”

Selene had ignored them and stepped into her car, then drove away with a cold expression. Jennifer and Dan had remained on the pavement, waiting for a car.

Jennifer and Dan had talked very happily, but they two looked like terrifying ghosts in Selene’s eyes.

She had suddenly felt her life was getting even more absurd than before. Even though she never committed crimes or involved herself with the wrong people, she somehow ended up in terrible situations. Moreover, Austin took collateral damage because of her.

She was tired of fighting and felt herself becoming more like them.

Evil thoughts started filling her mind.

She was not impulsive by nature, but the few times she did feel like it, she would do things without thinking of the potential aftermath.

She slowly started the car, and the throttle gave out a pressing sound.

She stepped heavily on the acceleration pedal, and the car rushed into the road and towards Jennifer and Dan.

“Pang!” Came the sound as the car connected with someone.

“Oh my god!” Jennifer screamed.

Selene stepped on the brake and saw three people lying on the ground, two of them next to the car and one in front of it.

Clint Denovan had appeared suddenly out of nowhere and had pushed Jennifer and Dan out of the way. Jennifer and Dan were overall unscathed, but Clint was hit by the car.

Jennifer was very angry, and she stood up to bang on the window.

Selene lowered the window. “Sorry, the brake failed.” She said.

“You’re crazy!” Jennifer wanted to fight Selene but was taken aback by the latter’s cold look. She then ran to Clint.

“Clint, are you okay?”

Clint stood up with great effort, supported by Jennifer and Dan. There was blood at the corner of his lips.

He frowned because of the pain and clutched his stomach as he staggered towards Selene’s car. “Don’t be stupid, Selene. You could end up in prison for intent.”

Selene glanced at him with no expression. “Then go call the police!”

“I will call the police!” Jennifer took out her phone.

“Stop!” Clint grabbed her phone. “I’m okay.”

“Clint. You’re bleeding.” Jennifer said and lifted her arm. “And look- my arm is hurt.”

“Yes, Clint. The woman tried to kill us.” Dan echoed.

“You two hurt Selene and Austin before. Now you’re even.” Clint said, looking Dan in the eyes.

Selene started her car. “If you don’t call the police, I’ll just leave.” She declared aggressively.

“Selene Morris!” Jennifer shouted angrily.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

Selene turned back contemptuously.

“Just go,” Clint said.

“Why are you letting her go?” Jennifer asked incredulously.

“Stop fighting and take me to the hospital,” Clint asked.

Clint’s injuries were not serious. But one of his ribs was broken, so he had to stay in hospital for a while.

Jennifer was very upset by Clint’s injury. She stood by his bed with an angry disposition. “Selene went too far this time. She hit us intentionally, and we should call the police, or she might do something worse.”

Lying on the bed, Clint had just recovered from the pain, and he opened his eyes and calmly looked at Jennifer. “You and Dan also went too far when you attacked her and Austin in the parking lot. So maybe you two should go to prison instead of the thugs you hired.

Jennifer curled her lips. “We didn’t mean for that to happen. I didn’t tell them to do anything. Besides, Selene provoked me, so I wanted to teach her a lesson. But we didn’t provoke her when she almost ran us over with her car. She’s insane.”

“Okay then. But please forget about your feud. Just forget about her and move on. Your rivalry will only bring you problems.”

Jennifer nodded her head reluctantly. Then, after a while, she probed, “What about your relationship with her?”

Clint glanced at her. “You’ve seen it yourself. Do you really think I stand a chance with her?”

Jennifer smiled. “I also think that what she has done to you is unacceptable.”

Clint didn’t deny her words but looked at her with a complicated expression, then closed his eyes.

”Clint. Can I take care of you this time?”

“Yes. Please do.” Clint nodded.

Jennifer did not expect that answer and beamed happily, “I’ll do my best.”

At that moment, Dan came in with a gloomy expression.

Jennifer looked at him and silenced him, motioning at Clint with impatience. “Be quiet. Clint’s resting.”

Dan’s face turned even sour. “Please come out for a second.”

Jennifer took another look at Clint, who was now sleeping, and stood up unhappily.

When they exited the room and shut the door, Jennifer gave Dan an irritated look. “What’s wrong with you?” She asked. ‘I need to take care of Clint.”

Dan’s face was suddenly red with rage. “What do you mean, Jenni?”

“What?” Jennifer replied with a confused look.

“You’re my girlfriend.”
