Chapter 905 To Hit or Not? He held Lydia's waist with one hand and reached to her shoulder with the other, stabilizing her. With a graceful move, he lifted her up.
"Stand still!" Lydia heard a crisp voice in her ear, and she raised her head in a panic, only to see a girl with a very feline look standing in front of her.
Instinctively, Lydia thanked her, "Thank you..." Leia frowned and looked behind her, "The one you should be thanking is over there." As she spoke, she walked over.
In the past twenty years, it was no secret that the Turner family was declining in the capital, and being outside the family, they were inevitably subjected to the suppression of major clans.
But without seeing it with their own eyes, no one would have believed that the Turner family's people would be treated this way in the research institute.
Selena's face was so cold that it was frightening.
She had thoroughly offended the young madam before even starting, and the research institute had made a huge mistake! Meanwhile, the others at the scene, angry that Lydia had been rescued, also looked over.

When they saw the woman walking towards them, everyone on the scene, including the usually calm and indifferent Dennis, suddenly changed their expression.
Lydia was stunned at first, then she became restrained and bowed respectfully, "Miss." Although they were all young ladies from the Turner family, Lydia was from a collateral line, and she was accustomed to being cautious. Selena, on the other hand, was from the main line, and her beauty and nobility made Lydia feel intimidated. Even when she occasionally met Selena at the Turner family mansion, she didn't dare to speak to her.
Selena walked up to Lydia, her tone of voice indiscernible, "Lift your head up." Lydia was startled and lifted her head.
She had thought Selena was going to reprimand her for embarrassing the Turner family, but instead Selena raised her hand, pinching Lydia's chin and forcing her to look straight ahead, "You are a young lady of the Turner family and also the most outstanding designer in H Country. You can choose any man you want in the capital.
There's no need to pick from the trash can." Dennis, who heard this, had an unpleasant look on his face.
Alina glared at Selena angrily, wanting to speak out but recalling how Selena had ruthlessly beaten up Diana earlier, she gritted her teeth and ultimately did not dare to say anything.
Lydia's face turned pale, "I'm sorry, Miss, | embarrassed the Turner family--" Selena stopped Lydia with a look and said coldly, "The man who offended you earlier, I'll have Leia subdue him so he can't retaliate. You go and give him two slaps. If you hit him, I'll help you get your design and reputation back. If you don't hit him, | won't care about you anymore." The people around them widened their eyes and gasped in shock when they heard Selena's words. Selena paid no attention to the onlookers and just stared at Lydia with a cold tone, "Are you going to hit him or not?" Lydia looked into Selena's beautiful dark eyes and after the initial shock, a surge of emotions overwhelmed her, making her breathless. She spoke firmly, "Thank you, Miss." Selena hooked her lips and let go of Lydia's hand, "Very good!" Dennis realized things were going south and said coldly, "How dare you--" Before he could finish his sentence, Leia suddenly kicked him in the knee pit, causing Dennis to collapse on the ground. She twisted his arm behind his back and stepped on his back, smiling at Lydia and encouraging her, "Miss Turner, feel free to hit him. One less piece of trash in the world." Alina screamed when she saw this, "Let go of Dennis, or I'll call the police!" Selena sneered and glanced at everyone standing around, "Do as you please." Alina was too furious to call the police and rushed towards Leia, but was stopped by a handsome young man who suddenly appeared and threw her back to where she was standing.
Fraser looked at Alina with a mocking expression, "If you don't want to die, stay away!" Everyone recognized Fraser as soon as he appeared. He was a famous figure in the capital, known for being a former special forces soldier. The artistic researchers on site immediately stepped back, afraid of Selena's gaze.
Dennis, humiliated in such a way, could no longer maintain his previous composure. He glared at Lydia, "Lydia..." Lydia walked up to him and looked down at him with a superior gaze, "What do you want to say?" Dennis took a deep breath, suppressed his anger and spoke softly, "Lydia, we can sit down and talk. There's no need for us to be enemies like this--" Before he could finish his sentence, Lydia suddenly raised her hand and slapped him twice.
One side of the face was just like the other, and the shape was particularly symmetrical.
Dennis was stunned.
Lydia sneered, "Miss is right. You're a hypocritical, selfish, talentless, boneless, and unprincipled piece of garbage. How can you possibly deserve me?" "You and Alina, the bootlicker, are a match made in heaven!" With that, Lydia turned and walked away.
Leia exclaimed, "Wow!" and was amazed at Selena's ability to train people.
She disdainfully threw the man on the ground and walked over to Selena.

Selena smiled and then glanced at Lydia before saying, "Follow me." Lydia was stunned but immediately followed.
As the crowd looked on, Selena led Lydia into the gate of the research institute.
Alina's eyes turned red with anger, and she shouted in a high-pitched voice, "Call Diana and the teacher right now!" Outside the door, a farce was unfolding while inside the research institute, things were not peaceful. The Shaw family had requested a deputy dean position for Selena, and this had caused a huge stir within the research institute.
A group of academicians and department heads who had all worked their way up from the bottom were shocked and angry upon receiving the news.
Who among them had not struggled for decades to achieve their current position? Yet, the young Miss Turner had taken advantage of her status and used the safety of the research institute's personnel to secure herself a deputy dean position, which was simply too much to bear! Except for the overseas dean, all the high-ranking personnel of the research institute in the capital rushed back upon hearing the news.
They had been waiting in the office early in the morning, wanting to teach Selena a lesson and make her return the job offer, knowing the difficulties and stepping down to be a lady of the Turner family.
As a result, they waited from morning till noon, and they were so angry that they didn't even eat lunch...
