Chapter 50 He's Here Again

A shadowy figure darted into a car parked on the street, quickly removing her bodysuit, and Selena's face regained its composure and elegance.

"Ha, that guy has terrible taste."

They ransacked the place, but didn't take anything of real value.

This amateurish operation made Selena shake her head in disbelief, and she had no choice but to clean up the mess for the reckless thief.

Selena opened her palm, gazing at the golden-green gemstone in her hand, and her heart began to race...

Unable to suppress her desire for the treasure, coupled with her hatred for Lucius, Selena grabbed the jewel that was placed on the desk without any hesitation.

This is a chrysoberyl cat's eye gemstone. Against a yellowish-brown background, a tiny green crystal stands upright inside the gemstone like the pupil of a civet cat.

Holding up the gem in the pale moonlight, Selena's eyes held a hint of fascination.

"It's so beautiful..."

Under the radiant light, a bright band of light appeared on the surface of the gemstone, endowing this expensive jewel with a spirituality that ordinary objects do not possess.

At that moment, the gem in Selena's hand seemed to truly transform into the lively eyes of a cat, the clear and bright band of light being the sparkle that shone from its eyes when it was playing.

"Consider this compensation for offending me."

Wearing this perfect gemstone ring on her hand, even Selena's disgust for the policeman was slightly alleviated at that moment.

If I could get such a perfect treasure from Lucius every day, maybe playing with him a little would be nice...

A flicker of interest crossed her face, but the clear-headed girl quickly dismissed the absurd idea and gave a self-deprecating laugh.

"That won't do, we haven't settled our score yet."

The evidence of her theft at a dinner party is still in that guy's hands.

As she gripped the steering wheel, Selena's joy slowly faded.

She now needs to go to the hospital and have a proper talk with that police officer...

She stepped on the gas, and Catwoman's figure quickly disappeared into the street.

But the joy of her successful "hunt" made her completely unaware that the eyes hanging in the sky were watching her every move.

"Young Master, have you found any clues?"

The elderly housekeeper was extremely puzzled as no unusual information was found in the nearby surveillance footage.

"Who knows... It looks like Lucius's past romantic entanglements, or it could just be an ordinary petty thief."

Leaping between skyscrapers, Bruce kept his eyes fixed on the car speeding through the city.

Although he didn't know the woman's identity, Bruce found the ring she was holding strangely familiar...

"It can't really be that ring..."

With a mixture of doubt and shock, Bruce's expression grew increasingly strange, and he vaguely sensed that things were starting to get out of control.

If it really is that ring that symbolizes a special family identity...

So this time, that woman might be in big trouble.

......

"Beep...beep...beep..."

The rhythmic flashing of the instruments in the ward reflected Lucius's calm face.

In the quiet hospital room, a girl was carefully sowing seeds in front of a flowerpot, making preparations for her future garden.

Since she gradually became able to cooperate with the will in her mind, Pamela could sense that the connection between herself and the plants was deepening.

She used to struggle to even control her skin color, but now she can clearly sense the emotions of plants.

The power brought by that will is gradually merging into her body, becoming a capability she can control.

only...

As her abilities grew, Pamela could also vaguely sense that the toxins in her body were increasing day by day, becoming more and more intense.

These terrible things are gradually replacing her immune system, erasing all abnormalities in her body.

She has indeed gradually been able to mobilize the toxins in her body, causing them to accumulate in certain places or avoid certain areas.

Regardless, her body was still filled with toxins. If she was even slightly distracted, the toxins would naturally spread and distribute to every corner of her body.

Under such circumstances, Pamela could only maintain her bodily fluids in a temporary 'non-toxic' state, and strictly speaking, she probably couldn't even last ten minutes.

"Perhaps we need to prepare some medication that can completely suppress the toxins..."

The girl by the window spoke softly, writing down her goals in her notebook in the dim moonlight.

But a fleeting shadow in the dead of night made Pamela's expression change, and she abruptly looked up.

"Who?"

A gentle breeze rustled through the plants, conveying a sense of unease and anxiety.

"There's no need to be so nervous. Haven't you rested yet?"

With a slightly helpless response, Selena leaned out of the window and looked at the girl who was still conscious.

"Why are you back again?"

Puzzled as to why the other party had returned, Pamela frowned, her gaze sweeping over Selena's body.

She still wore that mysterious veil, and the contrast between her elegant black eyes and her alluring figure was striking and impressive.

"I'm here to see him..."

Looking at the man on the hospital bed, Selena was surprised to find that this naive college student had never left that philandering man for a single moment.

"What do you want with Lucius?"

Pamela's frankness did not lessen her vigilance in the slightest; she slowly stepped in front of Lucius, looking extremely cautious.

"Hey... don't be so nervous, what I actually wanted to say was..."

Selena wanted to tell the cute and innocent girl Lucius's "true colors" directly, but seeing Pamela's expression, she could only slowly shut her mouth.

Clearly, no matter what she says, this girl deeply in love won't believe her.

Having given up on persuading the other party, Selena had no choice but to settle for second best:

"I just wanted to talk to him privately about the Penguin and the Gotham mob."

"Does it have to be at this time?"

"...The situation is urgent."

"What?"

There was a constant murmur in his ear. Lucius rubbed his eyes, got up, and looked at the uninvited guest in the dead of night.

"Huh? Why are you back again?"

Upon seeing Selena, Lucius frowned, sensing something was amiss.

Didn't he completely cut ties with this guy?

Rushing over in the middle of the night, this doesn't seem like something good is going on...

"Heh... Don't you know why I came back?"
