"Miss Diana, speaking of which, I have to thank you. If it weren't for your ignorance, arrogance and maliciousness, I wouldn't have been able to take down the Shaw family so quickly..."
Selena smiled calmly as Diana's face turned pale. "Even more so, if it weren't for you taking credit for my work, I might have been targeted by the people in Central City a long time ago."
"Speaking of which, I couldn't have achieved my current position without your help."
The last sentence was a blatant sarcasm.
Freddie's face was indescribably sullen.
Diana didn't dare to look at Freddie's expression and covered her head in fear while looking at Selena with no words left to defend herself.
After releasing the anger that had been weighing on her heart all this time, Selena lost patience with this little worm and said coldly: "Arrest her and send her away as soon as possible!"
This kind of trouble could only be completely eliminated by death.
Diana's guilt was obvious to everyone. Everyone knew that she had only one way out: death.
Leaving aside what Freddie would do to her; just outside this meeting room were many people who wanted nothing more than torture and kill her.
This woman not only deserved death but also an extremely miserable one!
Diana naturally knew the outcome awaiting her. She could no longer bear it and began begging for mercy: "Please spare me..."
Selena ignored her pleas as Diana was dragged away amidst screams of despair.
After Diana was taken away, Selena turned her gaze towards Lindsay.
Lindsay looked pale as she lifted up her head slightly and whispered apologetically towards the female researcher standing next to Bruno whose expression looked ugly: "I'm sorry teacher..."
The female researcher was shaking with anger. "Lab 717 treated you like a mountain, how could you...?"
The person behind her hurried forward to pat her back. "Professor Arabella..."
Lindsay could only apologize and say nothing else.
Arabella took a deep breath, suppressed his anger, and looked at Selena. "Lindsay made a big mistake, so we'll deal with it as we see fit. Don't burden yourself."
They were heartbroken to lose such a talented individual.
But Lindsay wanted to kill Selena!
This was an intolerable mistake that no one could accept!
Selena looked at Lindsay with dark eyes.
She never showed mercy towards those who posed a real threat to her.
"Lindsay..." Selena stared at Lindsay for a long time before saying coldly, "Teacher, have someone take her back to Lab 717 and lock her up until I give the order for release!"
Lindsay had laid her hands on Selena before, so now it was time for Lindsay to regret her actions. And as for Robert? He had killed her once before - there was no way she would let him die so easily.
Selena found the perfect solution: with a wave of her hand, someone from Lab 717 immediately stepped forward and took Lindsay away.
In the meeting room, everyone's hearts were racing with fear - they were afraid that Selena might kill Robert right then and there. Before this moment they could have used their power in Central City to threaten H Country into stopping Selena from taking action against them; but now with 717 standing behind her back even if they were not in the right position legally speaking- they could no longer guarantee Robert's safety!
But surprisingly enough, instead of killing Robert outright as everyone expected she would do; Selena already knew what she wanted done with him:
"Lock him up in trial court!"
Then, turning to face Robert, Selena said, "Uncle, the actions of Central City are too much. They deserve to be punished!"
"Please publicly question Central City in the name of the Turner family!"
"If they cannot provide a satisfactory deal, in three days' time, the deputy governor of Central City will be executed publicly as a spy who intentionally destroyed friendly relations between our two countries!"
"I look forward to Central City's response!"
"Furthermore..." Selena's gaze fell on Bruno. "Teacher, can you believe that Central City dared to attack Lab 717 personnel with such ridiculous reasons? If we let this go unpunished, won't it give Miss Lillian the impression that we at 717 are easy targets?"
Bruno had already heard about what happened from others and his face turned black upon hearing Selena's complaint. He turned towards those behind him and ordered them: "If they dare bully my people at Lab 717 so openly..."
"Then let us show Miss Lillian from Central City what real assassination looks like!"
