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 same time, 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.
If 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 I 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.
