Chapter 1350 Crazy! Suddenly, a slap echoed through the air, causing everyone present to look over in shock.
Vivian couldn't believe it as she covered her face. Freddie had never even said anything harsh to her, let alone hit her, throughout their lives.
But now, in front of everyone, Freddie had actually hit her...
Vivian was so angry that she trembled, but she still stubbornly raised her head, looking at Freddie with red eyes, unwilling to admit her mistake.
After hitting Vivian, Freddie calmed down.
He didn't look at Vivian again, but instead coldly stared at Selena and Oscar on the other side, gritting his teeth and saying, "You two are really calculating...” Originally, as long as the Shaw family didn't agree to open up the voting system, even if Selena was highly skilled, she would never be able to become the dean of the academy.
But he had made a mistake, and Vivian had fallen into their trap.
Neither Selena nor Oscar had any special reaction to Freddie's words.
Freddie coldly stared at Selena for a long time before finally looking at Patrick and mocking him, "Mr. Turner, have you already made your choice?!" Patrick's pupils slightly contracted, as if reminding Freddie, "Freddie, you are losing control.” Freddie sneered and sat back down.
It was no use being angry or resentful now that things had come to this point. The only thing left to do was to use all the power of the Shaw family to stop Selena from taking over.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCompared to the election of the academy dean, the affairs of the Shaw family were nothing.
After a moment of stunned silence, everyone's attention returned to the voting process, which was now proceeding smoothly.
In the brief moment of quiet, Vivian looked at Freddie's cold face and took a deep breath.
Although being slapped in public had caused Vivian to feel disgraced and feel extremely unhappy, she also knew that it was inevitable for Freddie to be angry since she had taken a risky move without the consent of the Shaw family.
Vivian spoke softly, "Brother, I'm sorry... but the Shaw family has been oppressed by the Poole family for so many years. It's time for us to take a chance for ourselves!" "I heard Selena tell Oscar that she would give up the election for the dean of the academy.” "Besides, the majority of the people present are either from our Shaw family or the Poole family. Even if Selena participates in the election, she is destined to be a joke..." Freddie listened to Vivian's smug analysis and raised his hand to cover his eyes. He used to think that Vivian was acting out of heartbreak when she did those irrational things. But he didn't expect her to be so foolish! Monitoring Oscar and Selena... it's a joke! Being outsmarted and not realizing it, she foolishly handed the opportunity to turn the tables over to the Turner family.
Hearing Vivian's authoritative voice, Freddie sternly said, "Enough!" Vivian was scared into silence.
Freddie ignored her and stared at Selena with a cold expression.
Vivian also turned her resentful gaze to Selena.
As the daughter of a prestigious family, she had lost all face when her brother publicly slapped her. It was all Selena's fault! When the Shaw family became the new head of the research institute, the first thing she would do was to expel Selena and the Turner family from the institute to vent her anger! With this in mind, Vivian's face showed a hint of satisfaction.
Selena faced the unfriendly gazes of the Shaw family siblings but her expression remained unchanged.
The previous conversation was just a whim for her, and Oscar simply went along with her.
But she didn't expect Vivian to actually take the bait and rebel with all the high-ranking members of the Shaw family. It would have been difficult for the Shaw family to push through their plan if the Turner family did not agree to implement the voting system.
Now...
Selena moved her gaze away calmly. Suddenly, a voice came from beside her. "Selena." Selena looked up and saw Christ standing in front of her, looking down at her from a higher position.
Everyone in the meeting room was looking at them with different expressions.
Selena frowned slightly and spoke in a cold voice, "Mr. Poole, is there something you need?" Christ looked at the girl's gentle eyes, and leaned down slightly to gaze into her dark eyes, smiling. "I'll say it again. As long as you speak to me and say that you want the position of the institute director..." "The position of the director of the research institute is yours!" This sentence caused the faces of both the Poole family and the Shaw family to change drastically.
Vivian, who had just looked pleased, froze in shock.
She slammed the table and her voice became sharp and piercing with fear, "Christ, are you insane?!" The senior executives of the Poole Group were also shocked and got up from their seats.
"Mr. Poole!" Winnie's face turned pale with shock. She looked at Christ and then at Selena, opened her mouth several times, but ultimately did not make a sound.
Even the neutral parties were stunned. Everyone's eyes were fixed on Selena, some with shock, some with envy, and some with jealousy.
Dexter had been sent abroad, and now Christ was in charge of the Poole family, and no one could control him.
By saying this publicly, Christ meant that as long as Selena spoke up, the Poole family's votes could all be shifted to her.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThen...
The people of the Poole Group looked at their leader with disappointment and anger.
They're crazy! All of them are fucking crazy! The hearts of the Shaw family were also raising high in an instant.
Vivian's face turned ashen, and she trembled with fear.
She stared at Selena, gritted her teeth, and wished to crush her to death.
Selena! Selena!! The people of the Shaw family and the Poole family all glared at Selena, cursing her as a disaster for men! Oscar's eyes darkened slightly.
Patrick instinctively wanted to step forward to protect Selena, but he saw Oscar shake his head at him.
This kind of thing could only be resolved by Selena herself.
Patrick had no choice but to stop in his tracks.
In the chilling silence, Selena turned her chair and took a few steps back from Christ.
Despite not seeing the hope in Christ's eyes, Selena spoke in a light tone, "Don't get too close to me. He won't be happy.” Although Osvaldo had not expressed his displeasure with other men being close to her explicitly, Selena was a person who was good at considering others’ feelings.
Previously, as their relationship was not confirmed, she may have had thoughts but still endured. But now, they were about to get engaged.
Even if Constance touched Osvaldo's finger, she would not be happy.
Christ came so close to her and said something so misleading, Osvaldo would not be pleased.
Christ's eyes darkened, and he couldn't control the anger in his voice as he said, "Selena!" Selena looked directly into his eyes, which were filled with anger and unwillingness.
