Revenge On Love Rats After Rebirth by Olivia Marsh

Chapter 923 Setting a Trap Now, Selena's gaze towards Penelope was faintly tinged with a kind of ruthless satisfaction after achieving her goal. Has Selena found out something? Penelope was frightened by this.

She put on a forced calm expression on her face to hide her fear, and regardless of Cameron's subtle tugging, she looked straight at Principal Chow and said, "Principal, | know we may not be the most capable, but over the years, even if we haven't done much, we have still put in a lot of effort. Lady Selena's words have completely negated all of our hard work. Don't you think it's too cruel?" Penelope's words immediately resonated with Winnie. The feeling of being despised and crushed was too uncomfortable. Winnie had never had her self-esteem hurt like this before, and she immediately echoed, "Principal, Selena says we're not capable, but is she capable? If Selena can't produce some strength that can make me convinced, she can't make us give up!" Brian took a step forward and said, "Principal Chow, | can accept defeat gracefully, but | absolutely will not accept losing without a fight. | don't agree with Selena's decision!" The teachers in the laboratory also stood up to support their students. After all, regardless of their various interests, this experimental group had gathered the efforts of many of them. If it were to be destroyed like this, the many years of effort they had put in would be wasted.

"Principal, Winnie and the others have a point. Selena's decision is too unfair to them!" "Other than being Mr. Turner's daughter, Selena herself has not caused any sensation in the medical field. | don't think she can be better than Cameron!" "Principal, Mr. Turner's things are related to the interests of the H Country community. Selena can't make the decision alone!" Faced with this emotional scene, Selena didn't show too much emotion. She looked at Penelope and smiled without warmth, "So what do you want to do?" Penelope met Selena's gaze and said in a firm voice, "Lady Selena, you are Mr. Turner's daughter, and we don't have the right to ask you to hand over your research materials. However, as for the experimental team you mentioned, | don't think they have the qualifications to compare with the teachers in the Capital University laboratory!" The Capital University laboratory represented the top medical research level of the H Country, and they had the qualifications to say such things.

Selena smiled meaningfully, "So what?" Penelope stared at her and said, "Unless the research team you mentioned comes from a foreign country, Lady Selena, you should understand what Mr. Turner's research represents. Non-H Country people cannot be certain to be one hundred percent loyal to H Country's interests. Even if you reveal the information, the principal and others cannot approve of outsiders accessing that data.” Selena smirked, her eyes showing a hint of cold amusement. "And then?" Penelope spoke coldly, "So my proposal is that we adopt the principle of strength first, on the condition of absolute loyalty. As long as the research team you bring can convince all the teachers at Capital University, we won't bother you anymore." "But if someone is not up to par, they must step down and be replaced by the teachers at Capital University's lab. As for us... we may have the honor of getting an assistant position, like Hamish did." After Penelope finished speaking, the entire office fell into a state of agitation.

Winnie and Brian's eyes lit up in an instant.

Although they were disappointed and angry, they knew that Principal Chow could not deceive them in this matter. According to their current level, they really couldn't crack the research data left by Mr. Turner.

It was better to step back and let the teachers from various labs fight for it. As long as they succeeded, based on their family background and status, they would have the ability to occupy a place.

Once they really cracked the experimental results, even if they were only assistants in name, they would still be eligible to share the glory.

And obviously, Penelope, Winnie, and the others present didn't think that Selena’s team could compare to the people inside the Capital lab.

After all, Selena’s team ultimately relied on the Turner family to help her find people. And it was well known that the Turner family had been suppressed by various other prominent families in every aspect in recent years.

For the past two decades, the best talent resources in H Country had been held by several other major families. Capital Medical College controlled by the Turner family could only boast a few experts, whose level the Capital University lab was confident in crushing.

To take a step back, even if Selena had the luck to find one or two outstanding talents, as long as the Capital University laboratory occupies a spot, there would be a lot of room for manipulation for the major families.

Penelope's idea was indeed brilliant. Winnie was satisfied. The personnel of Capital University laboratory were satisfied. The members of the major families present were also satisfied. They all watched Selena intently.

Everyone was prepared for Selena's rejection, and they had even thought of countless reasons to refute her.

Under the watchful eyes of the group, Selena smiled unexpectedly and agreed nonchalantly, which surprised everyone. "Okay." She was worried about not being able to catch Penelope, but she didn't expect Penelope to come to her door on her own.

Under Selena's cold gaze, Penelope inexplicably felt like trembling, but she gritted her teeth and persisted, thinking of the consequences of giving in.

The others present clearly did not expect Selena, who had always been strong-willed, to be so easy to talk to, and they were all stunned for a moment.

This shouldn't be...

Standing from the perspective of the Turner family, as long as Selena wasn't a fool, she would know the consequences of agreeing to this, so how could she agree so readily? They had a hunch that there was a trick, but they couldn't figure out where the problem would arise.

"I never deny anyone's intentions and efforts,” Selena glanced at Winnie and the others and said in a light tone, "consider it an explanation for the efforts of the past decade for a few people.” After finishing, under Winnie's puzzled expression, Selena turned to Principal Chow and said, "Mr. Chow, please arrange the Capital University matter, | will be there on time." With that, she turned and walked out with Leia. Leaving behind a room full of confused looks.

Even when they left the office, Winnie and the others still looked dazed.

There were too many things that happened today, and the group didn't have the energy to discuss further. They all immediately went home and reported the Capital University matter to their families.

Soon, only Penelope and Cameron were left behind. Penelope absent-mindedly thought about how to snatch the research materials, and when she had an idea, she looked up at Cameron beside her, meeting his gaze.
