Chapter 1576: Confrontation "Quiet!" Selena's voice echoed through the room, instantly silencing everyone present.
She looked around at the crowd before her. "I am well aware of the fact that the owner of Sacred Pearl will be coming to our city soon. | expect everyone to show basic hospitality and maintain a sense of decorum fitting for our great nation. There is no need to worry about anything else.” Her tone was calm and collected, immediately quelling any unrest in the room.
Before anyone could speak up, Selena continued. "Today, we are here to discuss Miss Diana's sudden ability to activate Sacred Pearl." A small smile played on Selena's lips as she spoke. "What did Miss Diana have to say?" The person in charge stood up immediately and replied, "Miss Diana stated that she wishes to showcase Sacred Pearl's internal structure in front of all of us after its owner arrives." In the brief pause between sentences, everyone watched Selena with caution.
Once opened, Sacred Pearl would undoubtedly lead to someone's death.
And it was common knowledge throughout H Country that Diana held a deep grudge against Selena.
If she were able to activate Sacred Pearl, who would be her target? Many people furrowed their brows at this thought.
But then they remembered: even if Diana possessed exceptional mechanical talent within H Country, if she dared lay a hand on Selena - her fate would be sealed as nothing but a dead end road.
Selena raised an eyebrow slightly before speaking again. "Leia - go bring Diana here." For now - Zone Six had yet released her from custody; thus far - she remained guilty until proven innocent.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSoon, Diana was escorted into the conference room by a dedicated person. As soon as she saw Selena, a strong resentment appeared on her face, but behind that resentment was a fear that no one could see.
She had inadvertently learned that Selena was a graduate of Lab 717 and had even seen her close the "Sacred Pearl"...
A terrifying speculation almost burst out in an instant.
Even when Freddie told her that the owner of "Sacred Pearl" would cto H country tomorrow to guide her in opening it and killing Selena, she couldn't dispel the fear in her heart.
If the person from "Central City" who cwas the owner of "Sacred Pearl," then who was this woman sitting in front of her with a smile on her face? Whether or not that person could open "Sacred Pearl" is still unknown, but she has seen Selena close it...
Whenever Diana thought about what this action represented, she would be consumed by immense panic.
But unfortunately, she dare not speak the truth.
Once this matter is revealed, whether it's Osvaldo's title as a lifesaver or honor for closing "Sacred Pearl," they will all be gone in an instant.
Freddie will definitely tear her apart.
So as that person said earlier - She only has one choice left - To kill Selena at all costs! If Selena dies, at least there is still hope for Diana. Even if she fails, at least there will be someone to accompany Selena! After making up her mind, Diana's face showed a fierce and triumphant smile. "Selena, | have found a way to unlock the "Sacred Pearl..." Her voice was sinister and barely concealed her murderous intent towards Selena, causing many people to frown.
Selena responded coldly, "Miss Barrett, after being locked up for so long, have you forgotten your manners? You should addressas Mr. Turner!" Diana's face twitched violently.
She had beca criminal in order to compete with Selena for the position of head of the research department.
But in just a few short months, Selena had risen from head of the research department to owner of the entire H country research institute. This huge gap truly made Diana's heart ache with anger.
Unfortunately, no matter how unwilling she was and even if she wanted to continue working at the institute under everyone's watchful eyes, she could not disrespect Selena.
Diana took a deep breath and gritted her teeth angrily. "I understand now, Mr. Turner!" The last three words were almost squeezed out through gritted teeth.
Selena smiled and said: "I heard that Miss Barrett can finally reopen the ‘Sacred Pearl’. As director of this institute | am very much looking forward to it. | hope Miss Diana won't disappointtomorrow." Diana laughed like an evil spirit: "Mr. Turner, you can rest assured that | will definitely amaze you!" So what if Selena was confident? Couldn't she open the ‘Sacred Pearl? But little did she know that its owner would personally chelp her - by getting rid of her! Despite Diana's provocation towards Selina there were no ripples in her expression as she waved goodbye before leaving again after arranging sthings at the institute.
Leia asked, "Madam, are we going hnext?" Selena shook her head. "We're going to Lan Ting." That's where Stanley is.
Leia hesitated before speaking.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEver since Stanley cto the capital city, Selena has gone to see him too many times. Although her young master didn't show it clearly, everyone in the castle could sense his suppressed emotions.
But Selena was obviously there for business and couldn't be stopped.
Leia suggested softly, "Madam, you haven't spent much twith the young master these past few days. There's so much to do tomorrow. Shouldn't we go hearly today and let the young master take you out?" Selena paused for a moment before smiling. "Sure." Leia immediately handed her phone over to Selena.
She got into the car and dialed Osvaldo's number.
He picked up quickly. "Are you done at the research institute?" Selena smiled. "Do you have ttonight?" Osvaldo's gentle voice held a hint of anticipation when he replied, "Are you askingout?" Selena blushed slightly. "Yes, | want to invite you out to watch a movie." The man let out a low and pleasant laugh before saying,"I'll cpick you up." Selena was thrilled to have successfully arranged a date and hung up the phone with glee. Her excitement didn't wane until she laid eyes on Stanley. As he looked at her with a deep, unbreakable tenderness in his eyes, his gaze darkened and without saying a word, he led Selena inside.
Later that evening, Selena emerged from Stanley's estate just as she was about to call Osvaldo. She looked up and saw him waiting outside the door for her. Surprised but pleased to see him there, she put away her phone and walked over with a sweet smile.
"Why didn't you cin?" She asked.
Osvaldo kissed her gently before whispering,” | have sthings | need to discuss with Mr. Soo. Wait forin the car.” Selena frowned as she turned back towards Stanley who stood on the steps watching them curiously. Why would Osvaldo want to talk to someone he wasn't familiar with like Stanley? Despite her confusion, Selena never wanted to embarrass Osvaldo so obediently got into the car parked by the side of the road.
As soon as Selena left, an awkward silence fell upon them all at once.
