Chapter 957

The cold tension in the air began to spread, but Selena acted as if she didn’t notice a thing.

“You should head home,” she said casually. “I’m about to go to bed myself.”

“Move,” Lucas said suddenly, his voice low and commanding.

Selena let out a mocking laugh. “And who do you think you are? You tell me to move, and I’m supposed to just step aside?”

Lucas’ expression darkened, his gaze cold as it locked onto her. But Selena wasn’t intimidated in the slightest in fact, she boldly stared right back at him.

Lucas stayed quiet, his frustration evident. This was the kind of boldness that only family could get away with, pushing boundaries just because they could. Exhaling a heavy breath, he said, “I just want to see her for a moment. After that, I’ll leave.”

“Nope,” Selena replied briskly, shutting the door in his face without hesitation.
