Chapter 1327 Only You Can't Do It Selena was startled, a hint of nostalgia flashing in her eyes as she bit her lip with a slightly aggrieved expression. "Yes," she said.
If the Turner family's situation hadn't been exposed, she would have already gone home. She wouldn't have become the daughter of the Turner family.
Osvaldo's slender fingers gently slid over her eyes. "After the capital's affairs are over, I'll accompany you home." Selena blinked.
Osvaldo had long known the truth, so Selena was not surprised by his words. Except for not telling Osvaldo her true identity, he knew almost everything he should know.
And since she had accepted his proposal, she naturally wouldn't leave him.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThinking about the opponents she would face after she went back, a faint sharpness flashed in Selena's eyes. But she still had a sweet smile on her face as she touched Osvaldo's face. "Okay." No matter what she would encounter in the future, she would definitely protect him well! Osvaldo got the promise he most wanted to hear and smiled tenderly.
The clock on the wall sounded the hour, and Osvaldo picked Selena up and sent her back to her room.
After the news of the Baxter family came out, Selena also hastened her steps. She returned to the Turner family the next morning.
Oscar had already woken up, probably knowing that she would come home today. Patrick had also not gone to medical school, and the father and son were waiting for her in the hall.
When Selena entered, Patrick smiled and asked, "Have you had breakfast?" Selena had already eaten, but seeing the spacious hall with only the father and son waiting for her to have a meal together, she changed her words at the last moment. "Not yet." The butler immediately said, "Then miss, please sit down. I'll have the kitchen serve the food right away." Selena washed her hands and sat down at the table, carefully observing Oscar's expression.
Although the surgery was for saving a person, it would still damage the person's vitality. Oscar's face was paler than before, but his spirit seemed to have improved a lot.
Selena took the initiative to ask, "Uncle, is there anything uncomfortable?" Oscar smiled faintly, "Much better than before.” Selena was relieved. After having breakfast with the father and son, Selena sat on the sofa and talked to them about the matter at hand.
"Three days later, Diego will step down as the dean of the research institute, and he will recommend someone from the Turner family to take his place..." Selena paused here, then continued to ask, "Do you have any recommended candidates?" There are only two people left in the direct bloodline of the Turner family. Neither Oscar nor Patrick have any professional connection to the research institute. It's too difficult to find someone from the Turner family who has both reputation and strength to hold the position of the dean and suppress many protests.
Oscar shook his head. Patrick looked at Selena, seeming to want to say something, but didn't.
Selena sighed lightly, "Lydia's qualifications are too light, and she can't suppress those jackals and tigers. For now, we can only follow Diego's example and choose a researcher from the Turner family's faction within the research institute..." "Why don't you try it yourself?" Oscar suddenly interrupted Selena's words.
Selena's words stopped, she was looking at Oscar without speaking.
Patrick spoke up, "Father, Selena already has a heavy burden. We can leave the research institute to someone else.” Patrick looked into Selena's eyes, "Since Cassius entered capital, there has been no news from him. The Shaw family is now in trouble, and they are bound to be involved.” "If it's not you at that meeting in three days, no one else will be able to succeed.” Even if Selena personally takes action, it's difficult to guarantee success in taking the position of the dean of the research institute. Selena understands this truth.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt's just that she will eventually leave capital. Once she holds the position of the dean of the research institute, it won't be easy to let it go.
Oscar seemed to have guessed Selena's concern, "What if | say there will be a very suitable person in the future who can take your place?" Selena and Patrick turned their heads instantly, looking at Oscar with surprise.
Selena looked at Oscar's dark eyes and asked tentatively, "Uncle, are you talking about... my father?" Indeed, no one is more qualified than him.
But who can guarantee that Callum, who will return to capital with hatred twenty years later, will be the same Callum as before? Even with Selena's strong mentality, she cannot guarantee that if she experiences Callum'’s life, she will not have the idea of destroying all enemies.
Oscar did not say yes or no, but looked at Selena meaningfully and said, "You take the position of the dean of the academy first.
If you want to quit later, | promise | won't make things difficult for you." With Oscar's words, Selena had no reason to refuse.
Most importantly, what Oscar said was true. Except for her, no one in the Turner family was suitable for this position. Even she lacked the qualifications. But she had the strength that no one could match! After making the decision, Selena didn't delay and stood up, "Then it's settled. Three days later, the Turner family will definitely have a tough battle to fight. Uncle, rest well." After speaking, Selena walked out the door. Patrick personally escorted Selena out and then walked back to stand in front of Oscar and asked softly, "Father, who is the person you said could replace Selena?" Although Selena didn't want to take the position of the dean of the academy, it was one thing. It was another thing for someone else to replace her. If that person was Callum, it would be fine. But Patrick had a hunch that the person Oscar mentioned was not Callum. And the thought of someone else taking Selena's place and enjoying the benefits of being the dean of the academy made Patrick feel uncomfortable deep down.
Oscar's insightful gaze fell on Patrick's face, with a hint of something indiscernible. "Patrick, remember, everyone can express their dissatisfaction with this matter and defend her, but you cannot.” Patrick was taken aback, "Why?" Oscar didn't answer the question but said, "Many things are not as simple as you see them, and for that girl... this decision may not necessarily be a bad thing for her." Selena felt deeply guilty towards the Turner family. These feelings of guilt made her always cautious when facing the members of the Turner family.
If this girl really had something to do with Callum, Oscar also didn't want...
