I’m A Quadrillionaire chapter 868
Ten minutes later.
David and Selena had changed their clothes and were sitting in the living room.
“What is it? Go on!” David said. “David, I want to apologize to you,” Selena said apologetically.
“Apologize for what?”
“I shouldn’t have told Celia about martial artists and the catastrophe.”
“Alright, let’s not talk about it. Even if you didn’t tell her, she was going to find out about the global live stream sooner or later. I only want you to be nice to Celia. She really thinks of you as a sister.”
“I know that! I’ve always thought of Celia as my own sister too. But I really like you, David. Besides, to convince the King family to spare no effort in sending someone to help Somerland, I lied to my family that I’ve gotten together with you and begged them to help you. I have no choice. Otherwise, I don’t know what to tell my family.”
David was stunned by Selena’s words.
Thinking back to the situation, the hidden forces had all put him off.
Only the King family did their best to help him.
He thought the King family was principled.
Only now did he find out it was due to Selena.
She said he had gotten together with him. Did that make him the son-in-law of the King family?
The King family probably felt that it would be impossible to explain that they had nothing to do with him, so they could only help him.
Besides, David now realized that Augustus and Delmont had looked at him the way an elder looked at a son-in law when Bourne unmasked him during the day.
They looked more excited than Mason.
David was a little puzzled at that time.
He had no idea why the two were excited.
Now, he finally understood why.
David could not be mad at Selena for what she did.
Firstly, it was due to Celia.
He could see that Celia thought of Selena as her sister.
When he was not around, Selena would not only keep
Celia company but also keep her safe. Secondly, the people the King family sent had helped stabilize Somerland.
Somerland did benefit from it.
“So, what are you going to do now?” David asked after pondering for a moment.
“My dad asked me to invite you to the King family house,” muttered Selena.
“You want me to go home with you as your boyfriend and the son-in-law of the King family?”
“Can we?” Selena asked, looking at David with her big expectant eyes.
David was about to say no.
However, he was reluctant to do so when he saw Selena’s expectant gaze.
“Even if I help you this time, what about the future? The lie will get exposed sooner or later,” David said with a sigh.
“So you agree?” Selena immediately asked happily.
“What about the future?”
“We’ll talk about the future later, and the catastrophe is coming. We don’t even know if we can survive it! Besides, didn’t you tell Celia you’d think about us after the
catastrophe?” Selena said, blinking her big beautiful eyes.
David could only admit that Selena’s strategy was right.
Starting with Celia was like a guy starting with his mother -in-law when he was looking for a girlfriend.
When it worked, it would work wonders.
Thus, David agreed to go back with Selena sometime.
However, it would take some time.
Selena was delighted to accept.
As long as David agreed, it did not matter how long she waited.
What she feared most was that David would refuse and not give her a chance.
Over the next few days, David got a taste of fame.
His popularity had reached its zenith.
Tens of billions of people around the world had watched the live stream and remembered his face vividly.
David was now recognized wherever he went.
