When they arrived at the conference room,
people were already filing in.
After a brief round of polite greetings, everyone took their seats.
This was a massive project. Dozens of corporations had clawed for a spot, and the Davenports were one of the primary partners, providing critical funding and resources.
Today was a major strategy discussion.
Wrapping up her segment,
Zella crossed her legs smoothly. "Everything looks perfect. In fact, I can authorize an increase in funding right now."
The department head was ecstatic. "That would be incredible."
Zella's tone shifted dangerously. "But I have one condition."
She looked straight to the back of the room where Sierra was taking notes. "I want her removed from this research team."
Sierra's head snapped up.
She never expected Zella to strike this viciously.
A massive, state-sponsored project like this...
And she was being kicked out?!
Raelynn arched an eyebrow, looking over.
The department head looked stunned. "Remove that student?"
Zella's lips curled into a predatory smile. "Yes. I want her gone. Now."
She made her disdain abundantly clear.
Dozens of eyes turned to stare at Sierra, draining the color from her face.
Raelynn knew some professors brought their own students in, while others earned their spots through fierce academic competition. Even if they weren't core members, having this project on a resume was a golden ticket for life.
Sierra had likely fought hard in some university competition to get here.
If she managed to see it through to the end,
it would practically guarantee her career.
Zella's demand sent immediate ripples of frantic whispering through the room.
A male student couldn't stop himself from speaking up in Sierra's defense. "Sierra is Chairwoman Hayes's granddaughter. Kicking her out like this... isn't that a massive insult to Chairwoman Hayes?"

No, no, no! Sebastian needs to nip the Zella situation and win Raelynn back! Also, Leo, he is a wildcard for Sebastian's master plan... Sebastian- we know you know, what we know, win your family back!...
I thought now Sebastian and Raelynn will be together now that seraphina is not but you are not letting them to be. Two new female around Sebastian 😭...
I think Ian is sly. He is not what he seems. Sebastian loves Raelyn and they have a daughter together. Besides he has no family to even take care of him. I feel Raelyn should realise that Sebastian is only her true love and go back to him....
