Chapter 1582 Speculation
Inside the room, the two people on the bed, upon hearing Leia's words, only then realized that they had
spent the entire day in the room, and it was already dark outside.
Selena, who had been completely absorbed in her thoughts earlier, didn't feel much at first. Now,
prompted by Leia, she suddenly became aware of the rumbling in her empty stomach.
She tugged at Osvaldo's sleeve and whispered, "I'm hungry..."
Osvaldo rubbed her head, suppressed the heat in his body, and got up to pick up clothes from the rack,
helping Selena get dressed. Twenty minutes later, the well-groomed couple finally emerged from the
room.
Waiting outside, Leia, who had prepared to receive her young master full of chill, was suddenly stunned
when she saw Selena coming out of the room. Was the young madam actually strong enough to get
out of bed?
Selena was in a good mood. She smiled at Leia and said, "Good night." Then, with raised eyebrows,
she linked her arm with Osvaldo's and went downstairs to have dinner.
Leia, with wide eyes, looked at the backs of the two people, completely baffled. Although Selena's face
showed some fatigue, there were no signs of excessive exhaustion, let alone anything else...
So, did their master and young madam really just spend the whole day talking in the room?
Leia, dazed, followed them downstairs. In the hall, under the warm light, various delicious dishes were
already laid out on the table. Having gone without food all day, Selena's appetite opened up at the sight
of the food.
She walked to the dining table and sat down. Osvaldo served her soup. The young couple finished their
meal locked in the room, completely unaware that Selena's absence from the research institute due to
her day off had caused a stir.
As everyone knew, Miss Turner was a true "workaholic." Since taking office, she had never taken a day
off, except for when she got engaged. However, she unexpectedly took a day off when the owner of
"Sacred Pearl" came to the capital.
Upon receiving the news in the morning that Selena had postponed receiving the owner of "Sacred
Pearl" due to personal reasons, the entire research institute was in an uproar.
"The dean really has something going on, or..."
"That's the owner of 'Sacred Pearl,' and she delayed it just like that, not giving the other party any face.
I feel like kneeling to her..."
"I've already knelt; I was just scared out of my wits..."
Almost everyone was prepared for the mysterious and aloof owner of "Sacred Pearl" to be dissatisfied.
However, unexpectedly, there was a calm response from the other side.
Apart from confirming when Selena would be available to visit the research institute, the owner of
"Sacred Pearl" showed no sign of discontent throughout.
This approach made a group of mechanical engineers who already admired the owner of "Sacred
Pearl" even more fascinated.
Such magnanimity and tolerance were much better than the previous Miss Beatrice, who was
unknown.
Truly deserving to be the head of Lab 717.
In a gorgeously decorated villa, Robert raised his wine glass, sitting on the sofa with a stern face,
staring at the night outside the window.
A somewhat cold voice came from a corner, "Your Majesty, what is the meaning of this move?"
Robert remained silent, just squeezing the fingers holding the wine glass with a bit more force.
The person addressed as "Your Majesty" was undoubtedly the most difficult person to figure out in the
world.
In major matters, she would never show the slightest neglect.
So, this sudden leave, which seemed like a deliberate ploy against them, left everyone puzzled.
The same voice continued, "Your Majesty would never do anything pointless. According to the current
situation, Miss Beatrice may have exposed you; you personally killed her once. Your Majesty cannot
possibly let this pass. Tomorrow..."
She seemed to want to advise something, but the words stuck in her throat.
Robert's eyes turned cold. "Stanley is not in the Empire, and this period is crucial for her. Regardless,
we cannot let her be distracted."
The voice fell silent for a long time before saying, "Even if you might die here because of this?"
Robert's expression remained unchanged. The owner of the voice stared at him for a long time, then
turned and left the room. The sound of the closing door echoed. After an unknown period, Robert Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.
suddenly stood up, walked to the window, and looked towards the direction of the small villa, his eyes
deep.
Clearly, dragging for a day here would be detrimental to her. Why did this unexpected "vacation"
happen at this critical moment? For the past thirteen years, this sovereign had never taken a day off
unless she was on the brink of death. Why now?
Robert speculated on countless possibilities, but none seemed to match. Yet, his plan could not afford
any surprises.
While he was pondering, his phone vibrated in his pocket. Robert took out his phone, glanced at the
displayed name, and a hint of tenderness appeared in his sharp eyes. He pressed the answer button,
but his voice remained cold. "Miss Lillian."
The woman's voice sounded gentle. "How's the situation?"
Robert paused and truthfully replied, "Her Majesty took a day off today."
Lillian's gentle voice expressed surprise. "Took a day off?"
Robert explained the situation, "Her Majesty may be planning something..."
While he was thinking this, he suddenly heard Lillian let out a light laugh. "Why not consider that she
genuinely had something important and needed to take a day off?"
Robert was taken aback.
Lillian continued, "The biggest difference with Selena now is that she's in love, has a man she likes,
and emotions are the most weakening thing..."
"Whether it's Selena or Stanley, knowing your whereabouts is not difficult for them."
"From the beginning, they knew you went to the capital."
"So there's absolutely no possibility of an accident in the plan against you, especially wasting a day
setting up."
"That would be impossible for Selena."
"So this leave should be related to her boyfriend, a genuine matter that temporarily prevented her from
dealing with 'Sacred Pearl.'"
Even Robert, a resolute man, couldn't help but raise his hand and pinch his brow bone upon hearing
Lillian's words. "Are you saying Her Majesty put aside official matters for that man?"
Lillian let out a light laugh. "At the moment, it seems that way."
The room fell silent for a moment.
The sound of high heels tapping the floor came through the phone, accompanied by the woman's
gentle voice, "However, even though we say that, you still cannot take it lightly."
