Selena walked down the stairs with Fane. Selena like a princess. Niao smiled happily seeing the beautiful woman, she stood up.
"Very beautiful. Your choice is not wrong," said Niao.
Selena smiled confused, her eyes glanced left and right feeling confused by the atmosphere at that time.
"What's your name?"
"I'm Selena Patricia."
"Nice name. Introduce me to Ken's grandmother, Niao. This is Ken's sister, Shiren."
"Hi...!" Shiren waved to Selena.
Selene just smiled. Selena directed her gaze to Ken who was sitting relaxed with a cold face.
"When are you two getting married?" asked Niao after inviting Selena to sit down.
"Marry?" asked selena surprised.
"Soon. Wedding preparations are being arranged. Fane and Suzze are preparing," Ken explained.
"That's good."
Fane gets a call. Fane approached Ken, and whispered into Ken's ear. Ken's face turned flat, he smiled as he stood up and said goodbye to Niao.
"Grandma, I have go to take care of the company."
"Yes. Do my work. Selena's grandma will accompany her. Shiren is also there," explained Niao.
Ken watched Selena who smiled lightly and fakely. Ken smiled contentedly seeing Selena following his rules.
Ken stopped in front of the door, he turned around and spoke ten meters from the living room seat with Selena.
"Miss Selene!"
"A?" she snapped.
Selena lifted and turned her face to Ken. When her name was called, she immediately turned his head without thinking about who was calling him. After realizing it was Ken who called her, Selena rolled her eyes away from Ken, unable to meet Ken's eyes out of fear.
Ken stepped closer to Selena with a smile. Ken took both of Selena's hands, motioning her to look up at him. Ken brought his lips to Selena's ear to speak in a low tone.
"Just stay like this. If you follow my orders, then you will get what you want. Wait for me. I will give you a present after you get back."
"Present?" asked Selena smiling like a child.
"Yes. Wait for me in the room," Ken replied, smiling seductively.
Selena's smile turned to worry, she imagined Ken's bad treatment of her.
"Take care of yourself," Ken whispered.
Ken landed his index finger on Selena's right neck, then left Selena's presence with her fear.
Niao told many things about Ken since Ken's childhood.
"Ken is not the biological child of the Louvain family. Ken was my foster since childhood after I found him on the street with an injured body. I found Ken when he was seven years old on the way home from Sinju city. Ken was an orphan, his parents died when he was two years old. Since then he has been living with his younger brother Raiden who is one year younger than him at an orphanage," said Niao.
"Shinju. Isn't that an old town where many magic warriors live? I've been to that town when I was five years old. My grandfather also lived there before he died."
"Yes. My husband also lives there. My husband died of an illness when my second child, Shiren's father, was five years old. By the way, where is your family?"
"In Bossapple. My father is an apple farmer. I live with my mother, my father's second wife, and daughter Lisa."
"Your father had two wives, Sis?" asked Shiren.
"Yes. My mother is sick and there is no one to take care of my father. My father remarried with my mother's permission. My father married when I was ten years old and my half-sister was five years old."
"You are a good woman. Sometimes we need to go together to Shinju city," Niao said with a smile.
Selena enjoyed her conversation with Niao. Selena also made food for Niao and Shiren which made the old woman happy with a Selena that her granddaughter would marry.
"Thank you. Today you cooked a lot of dishes for us. Now, grandma is going first. Please take care of Shiren, she will stay here for a few days," Niao ordered.
"Yes. Don't worry. Grandma needn't worry."
Selena put her arm around Shiren's shoulder at the door. They saw Niao leave the Ken residence.
"By the way, Grandma...!" Shiren waved his hand.

Selena pulled the covers for Shiren who had just fallen asleep after they talked.
"If Lisa was as good as Shiren, I'm sure my family would always be at peace. Why am I now worried about mom's condition? I know how Diana and Lisa's moms have been doing all this time. I hope they're nice to mom."
Selena kissed Shiren's forehead and left the room.
After the bedroom door was closed, Selena looked back and saw Ken which shocked her.
"How?"
"What?" asked Selena with a scared face.
"You already know a lot about me?"
"Um," Selena answered with a sigh and a nod.
"Remember my message this morning? Wait for me," Ken remembered Selena.
"I... I'm not feeling well. Next time," Selena replied with an excuse.
