Chapter 1104 Enemies Meeting Patrick's tone was cold. "Last night, Dexter was sent overseas by Christ overnight. Now the Poole family is solely in Christ's hands." Selena narrowed her eyes slightly.
No wonder the people from the Institute hadn't bothered her recently. It turns out they were too busy with their own affairs.
Dexter had dominated the Power Center for most of his life, but he was turned on by his own grandson in just seven days. It was clear that the forces behind Christ were very deep.
At the stime, Dexter's departure meant that the follow-up to the Union University incident could only be abandoned.
After her initial shock, Selena quickly regained her composure.
Aside from feeling that Christ was ruthless enough, she had no other thoughts.
"It doesn't matter." No matter who is in charge of the Poole family, it doesn't change the fact that the Turner family will definitely take back the Research Institute! Patrick looked at Selena's calm expression with deep eyes.
With Christ, Alfie, and the hidden Osvaldo coming for her, the capital was bound to be chaotic! The change of hands in the Poole family may not necessarily be a good thing for Selena.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIf Osvaldo was in the capital, Christ's path to power would not be so smooth.
Thinking of leaving Selena alone in Creephia, Patrick felt a bit uneasy.
"Selena, there's something | need to tell you--" Patrick was about to tell Selena about the engagement between the Soo family and the Turner family, but the Turner family driver suddenly walked in from outside.
"Miss, young master, there's a guest outside looking for you. She says she's Mrs. Soo and she's brought her son to thank Miss for saving his life..." Patrick's face immediately turned cold.
Selena raised an eyebrow.
It took her a moment to remember who Mrs. Soo and her son were.
To be honest, if it weren't for the feud between the Soo family and the Turner family, Selena wouldn't even remember that there was a Soo family in the capital, let alone Mrs. Soo and her son that she had never met before.
Selena had not even had the chance to speak when Patrick stood up and said, "I'll go check on things. You rest well today." Selena nodded in agreement. She had planned to visit the research institute, but with the sudden change of ownership of the Poole Corporation, the institute was likely to be in turmoil. Going there now would probably be of no use.
Patrick turned and walked out of the room.
Selena watched his back, filled with a hint of anger, and suddenly asked Leia, who was standing next to her, "Is there any unusual relationship between the Turner family and the Soo family?" Leia broke out in cold sweat, and cautiously replied, "Mr. Turner's mother and Mrs. Soo are sisters. But twenty years ago, the Soo family stabbed the Turner family in the back. After Mr. Turner's father passed away, his mother was so heartbroken that she didn't live much longer. So Mr. Turner and Mrs. Soo his aunt have never had a good relationship..." Selena's gaze grew colder.
She had originally planned to have someone investigate the Soo family, but she suddenly realized that this was Patrick's family matter, and it would be inappropriate for her to intervene rashly.
As the head of the Turner family, Patrick could handle this situation, so she decided to let it go.
She turned to Leia and said, "Get ready, we're going to Capital University." Leia blinked, worried that Selena might run into Mrs. Soo while she was out.
Her grandfather was not in Capital University at the moment, and if Selena heard something she shouldn't, it would be troublesome.
Leia said, "Madam Selena, you promised Mr. Turner that you would rest at htoday. Young Master also asked you to rest well before he left. Don't overwork yourself." "And if Miss Hattie wakes up and doesn't see Madam Selena, she'll be upset." After careful consideration, Selena nodded and said, "Alright." Black Crow and White Crow were both at Capital University, so nothing should happen.
Besides, Osvaldo had promised to return soon. She had already missed their appointment, and it wouldn't be good if he cback and couldn't find her.
With that thought in mind, Selena completely dismissed the idea of going out and turned to walk towards the study on the second floor. While Selena was engrossed in her book, Leia took the opportunity to call Lady Lauren.
Patrick walked out of the villa and saw Mrs. Soo holding a child waiting outside, followed by a large group of servants carrying various exquisite gift boxes.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSeeing this, Patrick couldn't help but laugh, "Selena is resting, Mrs. Soo, please leave." Mrs. Soo was taken aback when she saw Patrick. She had received news last night that Selena had returned to the capital alone.
She cearly this morning hoping to take advantage of the twhen Osvaldo was not around to clarify the marriage contract with Selena.
But she did not expect to run into Patrick here.
Obviously, with Patrick around, it would be difficult for her to have a chance to meet Selena alone.
Mrs. Soo looked at Patrick and frowned, "Selena saved my son last time. It is only right forto thank her in person." She patted the child in her arms and asked with a smile, "Jayden, the sweet-smelling lady lives here. Do you want to go in and find her?" The chubby child in Mrs. Soo's arms brightened up and said, "Yes, she is sweet-smelling..." and ran inside.
Patrick's eyes suddenly darkened, and he signaled the driver to bring the child back. But Mrs. Soo spoke first, "Patrick, Jayden is not in good health, especially after falling into the water last time. He was sick for a long tand can't stand crying." The fact that the young master of the Soo family was not in good health was not a secret in the capital. The driver heard Mrs. Soo's words and hesitated when looking at the soft and tender child in her arms.
During this gap, the chubby child had already happily run into the villa's garden.
Patrick's eyes had already turned cold, but he wasn't worried.
Everyone in the villa was Osvaldo's people. Even if the child really saw Selena, it wouldn't matter much. Before Osvaldo returned to the capital, his men would definitely not tell Selena about the engagement between the Soo family and the Turner family.
Mrs. Soo didn't seem to notice Patrick's cold gaze and smiled slightly as she watched the back of her younger son running into the villa garden. "I don't know what this child is thinking. Ever since he met Selena last time, he has been shouting for that sweet- smelling girl." "After so long, he still can't forget." "It seems that Selena and the Soo family have fate..." Patrick was about to speak, but a blue car drove up and stopped in front of Mrs. Soo.
"What fate? Why don't you tellabout it, Mrs. Soo?" accompanied by an elegant and smiling voice, Lady Lauren got out of the car.
