My Accidental Husband Is My Revenge Partner - Chapter 99

Chapter 99: Movie Tour
Xavier gave Selene a look, noticing how tight her lips were as she forced a smile.

‘What could she be hiding from me that she doesn’t want to tell me at all?’ He wondered. He has a bad feeling about it, especially since it seems it was her family that caused that.

“Xavier, can you perhaps enroll me in a self-defense class?” She requested, which only spiked Xavier’s curiosity to know what happened in the office earlier.

Her clothes were still intact and so was her hair. He was slightly confused by her request but nodded.

“Instead of enrolling you in a class, I will be the one to teach you self-defense,” he replied.

Selene’s eyes widened in excitement. She was very much aware that Xavier could fight, even though she had never seen him in action before.

Shaking her head, she said, “You are busy with work, it would be too much for you.”

“It’s never too much when it comes to you,” he responded, making her heart skip a beat.

She tore her eyes away from him to look at the Harrison building; it was finally hers again and this time, she wouldn’t let them trick her into signing the properties that her grandparents had left for her.

At that moment, Selene suddenly jumped, remembering that she hadn’t visited her grandparent’s grave since they died.

“What happened?” Xavier asked when he saw the startled look on her face.

“I’ve not visited my grandparent’s grave before,” she replied. It had completely slipped her mind since her focus had been on her revenge.

“Do you want to see them now?” Xavier asked, ready to ignite the engines of the car and call Ito back in.

Selene sighed. “I don’t know the cemetery they were buried in,” she replied, slumming her back on the seat. All these while, she never had an idea which cemetery they were buried in. “But since I’m completely free today and there’s time, I want to search for it,” she added.

“I can just—”

“Instead of taking a shortcut, why don’t you follow me and we will search for them together?” She suggested. She noticed the way his lips turned into a thin line. “What?”

“It’s nothing,” Xavier replied. He called Ito back into the car and the both of them zoomed in to search for Theresa and John Harrison.

Luckily for them, at the first stop at one of the cemeteries they had planned to visit, they found the graves. Selene gently placed the flowers she had bought along the way on the headstones, a quiet tribute to those who had passed. She then adjusted her mask while trying not to let her emotions overwhelm her.

The uproar on the internet was still hot on the fingers, and any of Michelle’s supporters could bash her as soon as they saw her.

After spending some time at the cemetery, Selene and Xavier went back home. Xavier got busy with his work while Selene busied herself with reading comments on the post and watching movies.

Meanwhile,

In Michelle’s hospital room, she felt like breaking the walls of the room just so that she could leave and go to Selene just to tear her in shreds.

She had been getting countless calls from her sponsors questioning her if the pictures were real. It was real, but she couldn’t tell them that so she had to lie against Selene, saying she was framed by her, even though it wasn’t Selene who posted the pictures on her social media account.

Even the nurses had started giving her attitude when they came to change her bandage. They would give her ugly stares while gossiping behind her back.

Michelle grabbed her hair in frustration, she felt as if she was going to run mad anytime soon.

The door to the hospital room opened and her mother entered.

“Michelle, how are you doing?” She asked her daughter with concern.

Currently, Michelle’s hair was so rough it seemed as if she had been struck by thunder. She had an ugly expression and seemed to want to kill someone at that moment. Amelia had an idea of who it could be.

“What do you think, mum? Do I look okay to you?” She questioned her mother, clearly exasperated by her question. “Selene is going to pay for what she did. I will make sure she does. I must get back at her even if it’s the last thing I do on earth,” she promised, wiping the tears that streamed down her eyes uncontrollably.

For the first time in Amelia’s life, she felt threatened by Michelle’s promise even though she wasn’t the one who uploaded the videos.

All she could do was console her daughter and try to stop her from crying.

“She still has the mind to come to the set today? Isn’t she shameless? After hurting Michelle in the chest the other day, she could be locked up for it,” Viviana, the actress who accused Selene of stabbing Michelle in the chest intentionally hissed as she glared at Selene.

Selene heard her loud and clear but chose to ignore her. It was obvious Viviana was either blind or foolish, or maybe both.

She got suited up for her final scene, again.

Since Michelle was still in a bad state to shoot, director Jeunes couldn’t wait for her to recover. So, he hired a stunt double, someone who looked almost like Michelle.

When Selene saw the stunt double, she nearly thought she was Michelle. Selene weighed the sword in her hands, checking if it was real or fake. Even though Michelle was still at the hospital, she might still have someone there who could switch the swords like she did before.

The scene started, and in less than ten minutes, it ended. They only needed to shoot the part where Selene stabbed Michelle.

Director Jeunes gathered all of them and announced the movie tour. It all had to do with promoting the movie before it would be officially released.

Selene was excited about it, but when she heard that Michelle would be coming along, she didn’t know if she should be happy about it or not.
