Chapter 953 Demands Once Diana had deciphered the internal structure of the "Sacred Pearl," mass-producing it - even just a small portion - would be enough to boost the Shaw family's power and wealth.
At this thought, the majority of the people in the conference room looked at Diana with envy and flattery in their eyes.
Afraid that Diana would hold a grudge and use the Sacred Pearl against them in the future, many people immediately helped Diana to criticize Selena.
"Selena, your experimental theory is a joke compared to Diana's Sacred Pearl." "Lady Selena, can you stop making a fuss? Diana has the Sacred Pearl, and the position of the head of the research department can only be hers. You have no qualifications to compete with her!" Even the neutral faction in the conference room instantly turned against Selena and supported Diana upon hearing her words.
Even those old scientists who had originally sided with Selena were unable to speak at this moment. Because no one could deny the power of the Sacred Pearl.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSelena smiled slowly, ignoring Diana and just giving Freddie a meaningful look. "Mr. Shaw, as someone who grew up with my boyfriend, let me give you a reminder." Freddie squinted slightly, "Miss Turner, what advice do you have?" Diana's Sacred Pearl was the biggest trump card in the competition for the head of the research department of the Shaw family.
With it, Selena was destined to not get what she wanted the most.
Selena smiled without warmth, "It's not really advice. | just want to tell Mr. Shaw that betting on the wrong thing will lead to a total loss." "The affairs of the Shaw family are not something Miss Turner needs to worry about," Freddie sneered.
In his eyes, Selena's words were more like an attempt to sow discord after losing as a weakling.
Selena smiled and didn't say anything more because she suddenly changed her mind. She no longer wanted the position of the head of the research department. She wanted to make the entire Shaw family suffer a total loss and to create a brand new research department that belonged only to the Turner family.
As for Diana, upon hearing Selena's words, she just sneered. She was confident that if Selena could do it, she could do it too.
She only needed to wait until March, and then she would immediately activate the Sacred Pearl and send Selena to her death.
Selena didn't explain much and just smiled. There was no trace of the disappointment or frustration of a loser on her face. She turned around to leave.
Seeing her move, the people inside the institute began to panic. They were afraid that Selena would really leave, so they immediately asked the Turner and Anderson families to build a new research institute for her. After all, the "Sacred Pearl" was only useful for the research department, and not for other departments. Selena's mind and knowledge were irreplaceable and unimaginable.
The old scientists immediately stood up. "Miss Turner, please stay!" "Mr. Matthews!" "Selena, you said it yourself. Diana is better than you, and you handed over the position of the head of the research department.
What do you mean by turning around and leaving now? Do you want to go back on your word?" Henry's eyes also darkened. "Miss Turner, the fact proves that Miss Diana is indeed better than you with the "Sacred Pearl". You should fulfill your promise." Selena stopped in her tracks and sneered, "What, do you want me to help someone who's pretending with someone else's thing?" The people who were originally clamoring that Selena couldn't handle it suddenly choked and were speechless. Indeed, the "Sacred Pearl" was powerful, but Diana was not the true owner of the "Sacred Pearl." She just happened to be lucky enough to find it. The winner against Selena was the true owner of the "Sacred Pearl," not Diana.
Under these circumstances, it was natural for Selena to be dissatisfied.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"We didn't think of it that way," Henry said calmly. "The institute values Miss Turner's abilities. You can also join the research department and not be under Miss Diana's jurisdiction. This is the biggest concession the institute can offer you." Selena smiled slightly. "Mr. Matthews, do | look so stupid to you? Do you think | would sell myself to the current institute for such a small favor? You really have a good and scheming plan!" Henry was touched by her words and became angry. He stared at Selena, his eyes showing his irritation. "Miss Turner, what do you want then?" Selena was the most troublesome person he had ever seen. She was difficult to handle, and she couldn't be expelled or kept.
Keeping her would also be a disaster.
Unfortunately, according to the current situation, he can only afford it.
Selena pondered for a moment and suddenly seemed to think of something. She stared at Henry and said, "I heard that the Research Institute and Union University are preparing to cooperate for a special training session, specifically to promote Diana and the younger generation of the research department.” Henry's eyes flickered. After careful consideration, he realized there was no need to hide this from Selena and said, "Yes, that's true." "Good," Selena walked back with a hint of interest on her lips. "As long as Mr. Matthews, you can promise me one thing, | will voluntarily give up my position as the head of the research department.” Henry's heart began to tighten. Even Freddie sat up straight. After witnessing how difficult Selena was to deal with, everyone became interested in her request.
"My request is simple: | also want to participate in this training session." In just one sentence, the atmosphere became extremely strange. Everyone looked at Selena in shock, as if they had seen a ghost. Is this spoiled young lady crazy? Freddie had been tricked by Selena before, so he knew a bit about her. Usually, the simpler Selena's request was, the more she wanted in return. The men looked at Selena with a layer of guardedness in their eyes.
Henry frowned. From his perspective, this request would do no harm to the Research Institute. But precisely because it was too simple, it made people hesitant to agree.
Diana sneered and turned to Freddie, "Mr. Shaw, Lady Selena must be going crazy and wants to elevate herself. After all, it's normal for someone from a small town like her to want to see the true elites.” Freddie furrowed his brow, contemplating for a long time. He couldn't figure out what benefits Selena could gain from this request. As long as the Research Institute gave her a spot, she would completely give up her position as head of the research department... It seemed like a profitable deal.
Seeing Freddie hesitate, a strange glint flickered in Diana's eyes. She leaned in and whispered in his ear, "Mr. Shaw, the battlefield is cruel. Although it's just a training session, injuries are common, and accidents... aren't impossible.” If Selena were to die in this training session, she would have no worries left!
