Be Spoiled After Rebirth (Selena and Osvaldo) novel Chapter 1116

Chapter 1116 Selena Knows about the Engagement

Selena left the research department with Leia, pondering over the recent situation in the capital. Despite the massive research institute, even the lower-ranking officials had fled, indicating that the power struggle within the Poole family was far from calm as it seemed on the surface. Selena wondered what impact Christ would have on the Turner family once he took over.

Lost in thought about the possible troubles that the Turner family may face next, Selena absentmindedly walked out of the research institute and was suddenly stopped by Winnie.

Winnie glared at Selena with resentment and said, "Selena, you promiscuous woman, you ruined our Poole family!"

Selena's eyes turned cold as she raised her head and stared at Winnie, who looked exhausted and anxious, a far cry from her usual proud and beautiful self. Leia, hearing someone insult Selena, broke her cat teaser with a snap and was about to teach Winnie a lesson.

Knowing that Selena's assistant was skilled in combat, Winnie's face turned even paler when she met Leia's icy gaze. She tried to step back in terror but was too slow. Leia seized Winnie's collar like a chick and pulled her close, saying coldly, "What does Madam Selena have to do with the Poole family's affairs?"

"If you dare to insult Madam Selena again, be careful that I will cut out your tongue!"

Winnie was just a pampered daughter from a rich family and could not handle being frightened. Especially in the recent days, with the Poole family in turmoil, her confidence had been worn down. When she heard Leia's threat, she showed more fear on her face.

She glared at Selena and seemed to want to pounce on her, saying, "How could it have nothing to do with Selena? If it weren't for her, how could my brother do such a rebellious thing?"

"It's all because of Selena that the Poole family is in chaos, my grandfather was sent abroad, and so many people... died..."

"Selena, why did you have to come back to the capital? If you hadn't returned, I wouldn't have lost my dream and become a laughingstock!"

"My family wouldn't have become like this... it's all your fault!"

Winnie seemed to recall some terrifying scenes, and by the end of her speech, tears streamed down her face. If it weren't for this incident, she would never have known that the Poole family, which she had always been proud of, could be such a terrible place. Her beloved older brother turned out to be such a cold-blooded person.

Leia's face turned cold, and she was about to teach this woman a lesson, but she heard Selena's voice from behind.

"Leia, let her go," he said.

Leia snorted and reluctantly released her grip.

Winnie stumbled backward a few steps and almost fell to the ground.

Selena approached, her gaze settling lightly on Winnie's face. "Miss Poole, what do you want to say?" she asked coolly.

She had just arrived at the research institute when Vivian and Winnie arrived one after the other to confront her.

Troublesome women from the capital.

Men are even more troublesome!

Winnie looked at Selena's serene expression and hoarsely questioned, "Selena, what kind of love potion did you give to my brother to make him turn against our grandfather for you..."

Selena lowered her curled lashes to hide her emotions and said coldly, "I have nothing to do with your brother!"

"As for Dexter," Selena paused and looked at Winnie mockingly and coldly, "You should be grateful that Christ sent him away ahead of time. Otherwise, when I catch the evidence, prison will be his home for the rest of his life!"

Winnie's expression suddenly froze.

She knew clearly that Christ had turned against Dexter for Selena and also knew the cause and effect of the matter.

Dexter had secretly tampered with the competition venue at Union University, causing Selena and several military school students to almost die. This was almost no secret in the capital.

They were just waiting for the court to find the evidence and come after the Poole family.

But no one had expected Christ to take action first.
