Chapter 1361 Power or Life?!
"There were only a few buildings, and a dozen or so young people with the sgoals rolled up their sleeves and got to work."
"Your grandmother had received an education, and she knew a lot, so she becour leader."
"At that time, every day you could read from the newspapers which city was bombed, and how many people had died. Your
grandmother would cry when she saw it, then run back to study day and night."
"From nuclear weapons to viruses, water conservancy projects, chemical engineering, she was responsible for everything..."
"Your grandfather pitied her and wanted to take her for a break, but this woman who had been elegant all her life picked up a
broom and chased your grandfather down several streets."
The old man spoke slowly, his face carrying a nostalgic smile. "Those who didn't see it with their own eyes wouldn't understand
how great she was."
Selena said with a smile, "God did not treat such a good woman unfairly. Grandfather loved her all his life, and she had three very
good and outstanding sons."
Mr. Chambers looked at the resilience in the girl's eyes and his smile beceven gentler. "Later on, things gradually got better.
The research institute grew larger, and more talents joined. Your grandmother finally had tto enjoy her own life."
"Your grandfather was a rascal, and he even made her give birth to three sons in one go!"
Selena touched her nose and resisted the urge to turn and look at Oscar. As far as she knew, Oscar was two years older than
Callum. And Callum was five years older than the youngest uncle, so it was probably an accident in the end.
Mr. Chambers's voice suddenly lowered, "Not long after she gave birth to the youngest son, news suddenly cfrom the north
that someone had discovered an enemy virus laboratory buried underground."
Selena's eyes suddenly widened.
"Your grandfather led the team and accompanied her there."
"However, during the process of destroying the laboratory, she was unfortunately infected."

"Your grandfather tried everything he could, but couldn't save his beloved wife's life," the old man's voice beclow, "She died in
his arms."
"Before she passed away, she held your grandfather's hand and asked if the virus had been destroyed."
"Your grandfather said yes, and then she closed her eyes."
"She passed away with a smile on her face."
The conference room fell silent.
Selena's voice was cold and firm, "Grandmother was very happy, and the Turner family was proud of her achievements."
"My father and | won't let her down."
Mr. Chambers patted the girl's shoulder, pushed away his student who wanted to help him, and walked up to the podium with his
crutch.
No one said anything to stop him.
The old man picked up a pen and wrote twenty-two heavy strokes under Selena's name.
These were all the founding members of the research institute.
With the addition of the Academy of Sciences, Selena's votes had already surpassed those of the Poole and Shaw families.
Vivian was unwilling to accept this and wanted to argue, but someone suddenly stood up inside the institute.
"lI am Flynn, represent all the members of the engineering department and supports Miss Turner to becthe next dean!"
Someone nodded, and the members of the research department followed suit. "The entire research department supports Miss
Turner to succeed as the dean!"
"Mr. Matthews, if it weren't for us old folks supporting the research institute all these years, can the institute still survive today with
only you high-level leaders who have forgotten your original intentions?"
"The research institute is for scientific research, not a place for vile individuals to form factions and pursue personal gain. Please
give up your selfishness and keep the field of scientific research in H Country pure!"
More and more people stood up.
The dozens of high-level members of the research institute listened to the voices begging them to spare the field of scientific
research in H Country and their faces turned ashen.
In this dead silence, a loud noise suddenly cfrom the door, and a man in black walked in.
Selena was surprised to see the man she had just sent away return, and she looked at him in astonishment.
"What are you..."
Osvaldo stopped in front of her and stared at her eyes with an inexplicably pale face.
Selena noticed that his skin was abnormally cold and thought he was worried. She said with a smile, "Don't worry, I'll succeed
soon..."
Before she finished speaking, the man in front of her suddenly turned his head and stared at the high-level members of the
research institute. He threw the sword in his hand onto the table.
There was no expression on his face, as if he were wearing a mask.
"Do you want power or life?!"
All the high-level members of the research institute, including Freddie, felt an indescribable chill when they heard this.
Almost without hesitation, several high-level members changed their minds.
"Miss Turner is outstanding and it is the general desire for her to succeed as the dean of the research institute!"
"The voting results are out, congratulations to Miss Turner!"
Henry looked at Osvaldo's eyes full of anger, thought of Christ who had left, and didn't hesitate anymore. He walked up to the
stage and declared loudly, "I announce that the next dean of the academy will be Miss Turner!"
His urgent pace seemed as if he was being chased by a ghost.

After getting the answer he wanted to hear, the man turned around and pinched Selena's chin, bringing her close to his face, his
eyes full of tenderness and indulgence. "Did they bully you?" he asked.
Selena was surprised to see this unfamiliar man. Although she had already secured the position, was her boyfriend's intimidation
too much? Curious, Selena replied, "No, they didn't."
Osvaldo turned his head and stared at Oscar and Patrick with his deep, dark eyes. Oscar showed no particular emotion, while
Patrick frowned and said, "You scared her."
Once he confirmed that no harm had cto his girl from the Turner family, Osvaldo lowered his dark eyelashes and the anger in
his eyes dissipated.
He didn't say anything else, picked Selena up and strode towards the door. Selena sensed the man's unusual emotions and didn't
resist, obediently following him out.
Under the scrutiny of the crowd, the newly appointed dean of the academy was taken away by a man. It wasn't until Selena and
Osvaldo had been gone for a while that the people in the meeting room gradually regained their senses.
Principal Marshall and the Union University students were the first to leave. The judges and the people from the Academy of
Sciences also left quickly.
Selena had just taken over as dean and there were many procedures to follow, so she wasn't present and the Turner family had to
take care of everything.
In addition, since Selena had becthe dean, the Turner family would inevitably reorganize various departments.
With many tasks at hand, the Turner family stayed behind to help.
Christ sneered and left without any reluctance or nostalgia.
Freddie watched his back and gritted his teeth, "Just because of Selena?"
Christ turned his head and gave Freddie a glance. "The biggest difference between you andis that | have never cared about
taking things from others' hands."
Because it was well known...
