Selena felt like she was going to explode with anger.
Her entire body was shaking.
Ugh!
Was it illegal to kill someone?!
For some reason, in her rage, she even began to feel a dull pain coming from her abdomen.
Taking a deep breath to calm herself and suppress the ache, she turned to Keira, frowning deeply. “Ms. Olsen, Miss Martin, what you're saying is just absurd! No wonder Ryan doesn't believe you—I don't either! Stop trying to scam us!”
Keira replied calmly, “There are two minutes left. Let's see who's really scamming who, shall we?”
Selena let out a mocking laugh. “I know why you're here. You're just trying to partner up with the Gill family. But I'm curious—your family and the Hortons are both filthy rich. Is partnering with the Gills really that crucial? Or maybe… you've got some ulterior motive?”
Keira narrowed her eyes. “All my dealings with the Gills are completely aboveboard. Nora Institute doesn't need to work with them for any hidden agenda.”
Selena scoffed, “Really? Because from what I've heard, you practically begged Gills to get the deal with them. I mean, come on—Nora Institute is a big name. People all over the world would kill to collaborate with you. But you chose the Gills, offering terms that are suspiciously reasonable. If that's not fishy, I don't know what is.”
She turned to Ryan, insisting, “Ryan, they're hiding something for sure! You can't trust them!”
Ryan's normally calm eyes were now cold as ice as he looked at Keira.
Seeing this, Erin was about to step forward, but Keira held out a hand, stopping her. She said, “What's your point, Selena? Nora Institute's collaborations are based on market research. Sure, we've got plenty of international partners, but since we opened our institute in Clance, of course, we'd work with domestic businesses. The Gill family runs the largest medical operation in the city. Who else should we work with if not them? Or do you think there's a better medical institution than the Gills?”
Keira's sharp words left Selena speechless.
She hesitated. “But… I heard you only got the deal with the Gills because you begged Nara for it.”
Keira responded coolly, “Nara is my friend, and her brother is a colleague from the Freeman Sect. If you really think that's suspicious, then by your logic, maybe Nara's secretly trying to infiltrate Nora Institute on behalf of her family?”
Selena stammered, “Of course not…”
“Exactly. I've nearly fallen out with the Gills over Nara in the past. Lucky for us, she's their long-lost daughter, or that deal would've gone south. Selena, don't assume everyone else is as underhanded as you.”
Selena was speechless
What…?

What could be the purpose of the tasks given to Keira? Is it a prep for Keira to become the head of South fam or something else?...
