Messing With Her? Are You Crazy! novel Chapter 1089

Sitting at the main terminal, Serena paused her typing and slowly looked up.

She gazed out the window at the dense crowd, her cool, bright eyes narrowing slightly.

"Open the door," she commanded.

Lydia blinked. "Huh? Open the door? But they look..."

Like they were looking for trouble.

However, seeing her Captain's stunningly calm face, Lydia immediately shut her mouth and nodded. "Right away, Captain."

Lydia swallowed hard and unlocked the door.

Serena stood, slipped her hands into her pockets, and casually walked out.

The outside had been buzzing with loud chatter.

But the moment Serena appeared, all the murmuring ceased.

Dead silence.

Everyone's eyes locked onto Serena.

How could they even describe that feeling?

It was an inexplicable urge to submit.

The second they laid eyes on Serena.

Their subconscious instinct was absolute submission.

"Are you all here about the island-wide blackout?" Serena asked, her tone lazy and cold, hands still in her pockets.

Her voice wasn't loud.

But it carried clearly to everyone present.

The competitors didn't expect her to be so direct, addressing their purpose right off the bat.

They were already intimidated just by looking at her.

Now, they were completely at a loss for words.

"S-Serena..."

Bianca was seething with jealousy.

Isabella felt the exact same way.

Having just been made the scapegoat, Isabella wasn't going to miss a chance to shift the blame to Serena. "Serena, I know you want to win, but did you really have to destroy everyone's hard work? So many people lost their data, yet you're perfectly fine. Doesn't your conscience hurt?"

The other competitors didn't agree. Instead, they frowned. "Dreamscape Initiative, don't try to pin your mess on The Hope Initiative's Captain just to dodge responsibility."

"We're just here to ask how The Hope Initiative managed to stay powered. The people who ruined our work have no right to speak!"

Bianca and Isabella turned green with embarrassment.

Were these idiots out of their minds?

When facing Bianca, they were a vicious mob.

When it was Serena, why did their entire attitude flip?

"What do you mean we're the culprits?" Bianca yelled, beside herself with rage. "The whole island is blacked out except for Serena's lab! She's clearly the one who sabotaged all of us!"

"Serena, how do you explain this?!"
