Babel Novel
Chapter 750
"You have a family too, plus you were with Juniper at that time, but why did Hades still take you in?"
"Well..." Selena blinked, thinking she was perhaps an exception.
"Because that guy had his eyes on you right from the start. How cunning!" Pierre angrily stomped the ground with his feet.
Selena shook her head, feeling helpless with Pierre's jealousy. That matter happened ages ago, but he still won't forget it and move on. “I might have been an exception, but the Zephyr Organization is more than just a place for orphans. Instead, they tend to keep their eyes out for individuals with potential and strong hatred. I was with Juniper at that time, and that I had a strong will to survive. Because of that, they reckoned I was tougher than ordinary people and chose me." Soon, she sighed and added, "If it hadn't been for the Zephyr Organization, Juniper and I would have died on the streets long ago."
As soon as Pierre heard that, he couldn't help but feel sympathetic toward Selena. Thus, he decided to put a stop to that matter. "Alright, let's talk about our business. You may be right, but I doubt Zephyr Organization would ever dare take in someone from an established family like the Murrays. So... does that mean they were not aware of Linda's origin in the beginning?"
Pierre sat on the couch, finding the matter weirder the more he pondered about it. At that moment, Niall handed over Pierre's phone to him. Since he was recently too busy capturing Linda, he entrusted his secretary with keeping his phone.
"President Fowler, Admiral Evan Moody has called you several times."
"Grandpa?"
"He sounded urgent."
"Why didn't you tell me sooner?" Admiral Evan Moody might be in his 80s, but his age didn't seem to take a toll on him at all. Fearing the worst, Pierre quickly called back to find out what was going on. "Grandpa..."
In the meantime, Selena nervously looked at Pierre, whose furrowed eyebrows made her feel even more anxious. When Pierre hung up the call, she asked, "What's the matter with your grandpa?" Nevertheless, Pierre only took a deep breath and quietly fixed his gaze on Selena's face in a fathomless manner.
"Hello, are you there? Say something!" Selena waved her hand in front of Pierre.
"I need a bit of time to digest the matter." Pierre didn't dare to speak up about the shocking matter.
At that moment, the maid came and told the couple that they had a visitor. "Sir, Madam, there is someone who calls himself Mr. Murray here. He wants to see you, Madam."
"Mr. Murray?" Thinking it was Jason, Selena curiously peeked at Pierre's expression. Considering the matter related to Linda and the fact that Pierre got jealous easily, she decided not to entertain their visitor.
"I'm not going to see anyone today, so just tell him that I'm not feeling well." "Come on, it wouldn't hurt to meet our guest for a short while," Pierre said.
After hearing the man, Selena doubtfully gazed at Pierre, finding his decision to let him see Jason weird. At the same time, the maid was left standing aside, caughtin the middle of the couple's incongruent decision. NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.
"Sir, Madam, should... I let him in?"
"Yes!"
"No!"
Both of them simultaneously spoke.
"What's wrong with you? I said no. I'm not going to entertain any guests today." Selena looked askance at Pierre. "But since you want me to see him, you'd better not get jealous and complain to me later."
Soon, Jerry was led by the maid to
the couple, and his arrival took Selena aback as she was expecting to see Jason. It's the old man... Is he the person Linda always mentioned? "Please have a seat." Selena showed her respect to the old man, thinking he was still her senior after all.
As soon as Jerry sat down, he was stunned upon taking a closer look at Selena.
"Mr. Murray... to what do I owe you the pleasure?"
At the same time, Pierre sat aside like a kid who had done something wrong.
Jerry looked down and collected his thoughts. "Miss Yard, I'd like to ask you a question. What is your mother's name?"
"Her name is Cecilia Davis."
"Where is she now?"
