Upon hearing Osvaldo's words, Selena felt as if she could fly to the heavens. She was about to speak when Leia suddenly approached them. "Madam, your phone," Leia said.
Leia had been squatting in a nearby corner, her face full of confusion as she pondered whether Selena was indeed the "Sacred Pearl." She wanted to give the couple some privacy but then heard Selena's phone ringing and didn't want to delay any important matters.
Selena took the phone and saw Stanley's number flashing on it. She pressed the answer button and said, "Stanley."
Osvaldo's expression darkened slightly. Childhood sweethearts were always troublesome!
He watched as Selena spoke a few words into her phone before looking up at him. "My cousin will most likely be coming to the capital in three days... I'll meet with Stanley this afternoon to discuss things further."
Osvaldo ruffled Selena's hair affectionately before leading her into their car.
Having resolved something that had been weighing heavily on her mind for a long time, Selena felt particularly good and radiant on their way back home.
Within half an hour of this conversation taking place, everyone who needed to know within the capital knew that Selena was indeed the owner of Sacred Pearl.
With so many experts from Lab 717 personally visiting their research institute and The Turner family openly questioning Central City... with these two events happening first, it would be impossible for District Six or even their research institute itself to suppress anything related to Sacred Pearl anymore.
Since they couldn't suppress it anyway, they might as well make it bigger by revealing its true value publicly and dominating public opinion instead. Central City would not dare lay hands on someone who had such high status now that it had been exposed.
And with this revelation came an instant uproar throughout the capital.
As for Miss Turner - no one dared say anything more about her within all of the capital.
People at that level were no longer people they were qualified enough even talk about!
Many of the people who had previously been enemies with the Turner family only realized now that Selena was actually quite merciful towards them. With her status, it would only take a word from her to destroy any one of these opposing families.
How could they have been so foolish as to go against this little princess?
The owner of Sacred Pearl, originally from H country and now the director of H country's research institute, was an unexpected surprise that caused chaos in various fields once again.
Selena didn't pay attention to how others viewed this matter. After lunch, Osvaldo took her to find Stanley.
When Selena entered the estate, Stanley was sitting in the garden brewing tea.
After looking around and seeing only Stanley there, she asked, "Where are Black Crow and White Crow?"
The underground vaccine had already been successfully developed and Black Crow and White Crow were fine. They stayed with Stanley to prepare for Selena's return to Central City.
Stanley smiled slightly as he poured a cup of clear tea for Selena. "I sent them back to the empire first so they can make preparations."
Selena paused for a moment before her eyes suddenly lit up. "Stanley... is it because..."
She had too few people she could rely on in Capital City.
Lillian came aggressively at such a time but Stanley still let Black Crow and White Crow leave; naturally he must have determined that Lillian could no longer threaten her safety anymore.
Stanley gently smiled. "Your Majesty, your father and mother already know about your existence openly now; they won't allow Lillian or anyone else harm you anymore."
