Trapped With The Devil
Section 31
Selena looks in amazement at a resort located on the artificial island of Cloe Enterprise.
Orlando pulled his car over on the beach side, so they could get a good view. In the back of his car is Eros's car, which is faithfully tailed and Orlando now understands how possessive William's youngest is. Instead of belittling Selena, Orlando is a little amazed to find out that Eros is fast enough to move on from his first love, Emilia.
“What do you think?” asked Orlando when he noticed the twinkle in Selena's eyes. Today the woman looks brighter than their first meeting at the party.
Selena lowered her car window wider, then smiled sincerely. His hair and hat were waving in the wind. “This is amazing.”
Orlando smiled as well. “Tomorrow we will do a photo shoot around the beach.”
Selena looked. “I'm so impatient, because this is the first time I've done an outdoor photo shoot.”
Being an adult magazine model, Selena spent more time in the studio. It would certainly be more fun if he could work with a background of the outdoors and stand directly under the hot sun, let alone this has entered the summer. Selena does not think about the skin that will burn and burn, more than that actually Selena likes the sea. Although the beauty of the sea in front of him is still defeated by the sea view in the Maldives.
“You know,” said Orlando glanced at Selena. There was actually something stuck in his heart. “To be honest I feel familiar with you. Have we met before?”
Selena looked up, her eyebrows raised. With Orlando? “I don't think.”
Orlando was bearded, then smiled faintly. “I'm sure it's just my feeling,” he said a little hesitantly. Although in his heart, he sure had seen Selena before.
Over where? I don't know. But his gut feeling was never wrong.

When Mrs William returned home, she found Emilia standing on the balcony in a white dress reaching the ankles. Her hair was unraveling and occasionally blowing in the wind. The woman looks small and fragile. Mrs William remembers when young Alex once said that the man would protect and take care of Selena someday, even though in reality Alex had also been heartbroken because of the woman.
Mistress William smiled gently as she approached Emilia. “You should rest in the room.”
Emilia flinched and looked over. “I feel bored, Bu.”
“Bored? Do you need to call Mrs Swan?”
Emilia shook her head while smiling faintly. “No need.”
Then silence. The two women of different ages both set their sights in front of the—on the blue sky at the end there.
Mistress William took a slow breath before returning to say, “then, mother desperately wanted a daughter.” So too with her late husband. They think that if they return to have a son, there will be a dispute about who will be the heir. But God said something else, Eros was born afterwards. “Alex is not my flesh and blood, but I love him very sincerely. He's a smart and obedient boy, never said rude and against both his parents.”
Emilia smiled slightly while looking down. Started listening to her in-laws' stories carefully.
“But unconsciously we have ignored Eros. Makes the boy feel that he is not needed—even unwanted.” Mistress William looked at Emilia and grabbed her hand gently. “Mother has failed to become a parent. I didn't want to interfere in your affairs because I know that love sometimes does have to choose, although in the end there will be one who gets hurt.” Then his gaze was sad. “Whatever happens, I can only hope that Eros will be happy and forgive Mom one day. But I know that Eros never loved Selena.”
Emilia raised her head and blinked. “What...Mother say?”
“You don't have to cover your worries anymore, Emilia. Everything is clear.”
Emilia smiled blandly. “Iya..” The woman nodded her head. However, Lady William was the woman who had given birth to Eros. The woman knows both the good and the bad down to the roots. “If there is the most wrong person, then it is me.”
Emilia.
“Someday, when the child is born, you should be able to educate the child well.” Madam Emilia smiled wryly. “Don't be like Mom.”

“New home?”
Selena stopped her steps in front of the room and turned to look at Eros who had just come out of her own room with a black t-shirt and trousers. As Selena recalls, the man was very busy, but it seems that lately so often went home early.
“Not your business.” Selena turned back to enter the room but Eros quickly held back the doorknob.
“For what car if driving with Orlando?”
Selena rolled her lazy eye. “Of course so that there is information that can be conveyed by your spies. It's a pity to wait for me almost all day but not get any information. Your money can percum—“
BRACKET!
Selena was forced to turn around and her back hit the door hard. While grimacing slightly, he glared at Eros.
“Your mouth is now completely unguarded, yes.”
“You should be glazed!”
BRACKET!
Circumstances turn. Eros is pushed at the door. The faces of Eros and Selena were so close and their breath was earthy.
Selena pressed Eros' chest with her right hand. Then his left hand stroked the man's face from his forehead to his hard, shaped jaw.
“I love you..” whispered Selena with a smile. “...dulu.” Then the arch quickly disappeared. “Now I know, you never deserve to get love from me. Even for an honor. You'll never get it—again.”
“Not to worry.” Eros removed Selena's hand from her body. Then walked past the woman while saying, “since the beginning I have been living alone. There is no need for love and respect, everything is just nonsense.”
Selena almost laughed. “Father,” tease him on Eros blatantly. “You obviously believe because the proof is I'm here.” Selena emphasized the word 'me' on her sentence. “Great love for Emilia and your inability to bear her pain are the reasons why I am here, aren't you?”
Eros did not answer. Just glancing with the tip of his eye.
Selena smiled wryly, then moved to give a kiss next to Eros' cheek.
The man was pecking.
“What you are feeling right now.is what I felt first,” Selena said before opening the door. “The wheel always spins Eros, remember.”
The one who ever hurts will be hurt, the one who ever leaves will be abandoned, the one who ever betrays will be betrayed. Not because the world is fair, but sometimes humans forget themselves that revenge will only lead to other grudges.
