Iâm A Quadrillionaire chapter 816 It was as if he wanted to take Selena right here in the kitchen.
âWhat the f*ck!
What am I thinking?
I canât cheat on Celia!â
David admitted that he had almost fallen for Selenaâs allure, but his mind power was so strong that he had managed to suppress his own desire.
Selena did not expect this.
She was certain that she saw blatant desire in Davidâs gaze.
She was so excited, thinking that she had succeeded.
After all, David was the kind of man to take full responsibility once he had slept with you.
However, a moment later, calm returned to Davidâs eyes and there was no sign of desire anymore.
Selena was both shocked and in awe.
The man had a terrifyingly strong grip on his self-control.
She could guarantee that David was the only young man who could hold himself back from her charm.
It made sense how David managed to become a supreme peak God Rank powerhouse at such a young age and achieve a success others could never imagine attaining.
Talent must account for part of his success, but so did self -control.
âSelena, I know that the King family wants me to join their ranks and your family may believe that a marriage union is the strongest tie to form, but I will not agree to a loveless marriage . Perhaps you were right about Celia, but so what? I donât care. I can and will control myself. Not every man thinks with their lower halves and your allure does not affect me,â David replied calmly.
âDavid, since you became Somerlandâs most powerful youth, Iâve only ever seen you as my future husband. There is a place in my heart for you. Even if I felt nothing for you in the beginning, Iâve found myself slowly falling for you, so it wonât be a loveless marriage. Celia will never be able to bear your children. Has it been your plan all along to die alone?â
âA catastrophe is coming, and no one knows what will happen tomorrow, I donât even know if all of us will survive it. Thereâs no point thinking about what will happen in the future when the catastrophe might destroy all your plans. Plus, Iâve never truly thought about having children of my own before.â
Selena wanted to say more when David interrupted her, â Alright, enough of this. Celiaâs come down, so go chat with her instead. Iâm fine here by myself. Celiaâs an innocent girl and she truly likes you. I know you approached her with hidden intentions, but all I ask is that you treat her genuinely and well.â
âDonât worry. I like Celia too, I wouldâve treated her genuinely even if you didnât ask me to,â Selena replied sincerely.
âGood. Rest assured , I recognize the contributions the King family has given to Somerland . I will not stand by and watch should you need my help.â
âThank you!â
Selena glanced at David once more before turning to leave the kitchen.
David continued to busy himself and a table full of flavorful dishes was complete.
The three of them chatted and ate away happily, and any signs of the discourse in the kitchen vanished.
