Chapter 921 The Experimental Team! All eyes turned to Selena as she walked towards Principal Chow.
Penelope and several members of the experimental team gazed at her intently.
Selena, seemingly unaware of the varying expressions, calmly made her way to the principal's desk.
"Selena," Principal Chow said, his voice tinged with nervous hope.
Selena smiled and gave a positive answer before he could finish. "Mr. Chow, my father is still alive." Principal Chow was momentarily stunned, then burst into laughter. "Good! Good! Good!" He was almost in tears by the end of his exclamation.
Callum's early passing was Principal Chow's greatest regret in life. He had been sick for a long time after hearing of Callum's death. Since Callum's passing, the medical community in H Country had declined and fallen far behind other nations. But now they not only had Selena, but Callum was still alive. How could these old men not be excited? Compared to Principal Chow's generation, who were purely joyful and excited, the others in the office had more complex emotions. Especially those from the powerful families that had targeted the Turner family in the past, they felt a great sense of crisis.

For the capital's major families, there was a world of difference between Callum being dead and Callum being alive.
Though the Turner family had support from the First and Sixth Districts, the only surviving bloodline was that of Patrick and Selena. Patrick was a sickly child who could collapse at any time, and Selena was a weak woman who had relied on her boyfriend to survive until now. The extinction of their bloodline was the greatest weakness of the Turner family.
But with Callum still alive, this weakness was no longer a concern.
A certain general from M Country had once publicly said that Callum was worth a thousand soldiers! They would rather send someone to kill him without regard for morality than become his enemy! Could a man who was like a demon but also like a god hold back his revenge after returning to the capital and seeing his wife and family dead, his clan overturned, and his bloodline facing extinction? At this thought, the gazes of those from the powerful families became somewhat dazed.
Selena, seemingly oblivious to their strange stares, looked at Principal Chow with a smile. "Mr. Chow, | have obtained the most complete research data left behind by my father. After the incident at the research institute is resolved, | will bring my team to see you." Everyone in the office was shocked by her statement.
Penelope bit her lip, and her hand hidden in her sleeve trembled uncontrollably. The eyes of the experimental team members changed in an instant, revealing some apprehension as they looked at Selena.
Principal Chow was taken aback and turned to Winnie and the others. "Your experimental team?" "Yes, Mr. Chow," Selena smiled. "I already have my own experimental team, and | will bring them to see you next time." Before Principal Chow could speak, Winnie's face turned pale with anger as she exclaimed, "Selena, what do you mean? You know very well that we are the experimental group members trained by Capital University. Now you're excluding us without even asking us, and you want to replace us with unknown individuals... You are simply going too far!" Selena's gaze swept lightly over Winnie as she replied, "Miss Poole, there's no need to get so worked up. It's actually lucky for you not to participate in these studies." Winnie, who had never even seen blood since she was born, could hardly handle the events that had happened in the underground city. She didn't understand the deeper meaning behind Selena's words and thought she was deliberately insulting her, so she burst out, "Selena!" The rest of the experimental group also had unpleasant faces. Anyone who had worked hard for a goal for more than a decade and was excluded directly before even starting would naturally not feel good.
Apart from Cameron and Hamish, everyone glared at Selena angrily.
"Principal Chow, | refuse!" "Principal, if we try and fail in the end, then Selena can exclude us, and we have nothing to say. But she doesn't even have a reason and just destroys our many years of hard work and dreams with a flippant remark... | refuse!" "Principal! Winnie and Brian are right. Selena is too overbearing and unfair. For the sake of fairness, they must be given a chance!" For a moment, the entire office was filled with intense objections. The atmosphere became somewhat tense.
Penelope, standing in the corner, clenched her teeth when she saw this scene. Her purpose in staying at Capital University was to obtain Callum's research materials, and now the complete research data was about to be released, and she could not give up no matter what.
However, Penelope knew that Selena had already become suspicious of her last time, and there was a gap between them. According to Selena's vigilance, she would never agree to let her access those materials.
Penelope's eyes turned to Cameron, who was standing with his head bowed and his eyes unclear. She bit her teeth, grabbed his hand, and walked forward, saying, "Principal, | admit that | am not competent enough! But Cameron's excellence is obvious to all, and he absolutely cannot be excluded!" After Penelope finished speaking, Selena suddenly looked up at her.
Meeting Selena's gaze, Penelope could clearly see a chilling coldness in those dark eyes.

Penelope shuddered abruptly.
It was so cold! Why did Selena look at her with such a heartless expression? Penelope was distracted and didn't notice the strange look Cameron was giving her at the same time.
Ignoring Penelope's words, Selena walked straight to Hamish, who had not spoken a word all this time, and said in a low voice, "Hamish, my experimental team is missing an assistant. Would you like to join us?" As soon as these words came out, there was another uproar at the scene.
Penelope's face turned pale.
She had just praised Cameron for his excellence, but in the next second, Selena invited Hamish to be her assistant in the experimental team.
Hamish was recognized as the best in Capital University and was even more outstanding than Cameron.
According to his ability, he could only be an assistant... So what was strange about Cameron and them being eliminated? Winnie felt that Selena was deliberately humiliating her and was almost losing her temper. "Selena!!!" Penelope clenched her fists, trembling with anger. "Selena, you did it on purpose... You envied me for taking the position of Miss Riddle, so you treated Cameron this way..." Selena rubbed her forehead with her hand, suppressing the impatience and coldness in her eyes.
She had always had a high tolerance for young people, but Penelope was not included in this category!
