Marley was flattered and replied, "I will work hard and study well, thank you, Minister Turner..."
Selena glanced at her before taking a step forward.
Just as Marley let out a breath, she suddenly heard a quiet, almost imperceptible whisper that was carried by the wind and into her ear.
"Diego was once a top researcher at the Institute. I'm waiting for you to return to that position."
Marley was shocked and looked at Selena's back.
If Selena had not spoken to her earlier, Marley would have almost thought that the words were just a figment of her imagination.
But she knew that wasn't the case. Selena did say those words.
Selena was waiting for her to climb back to that position on behalf of the Baxter family.
As Marley looked at the misty rain, she thought of a pair of black, empty eyes.
There was nothing particularly special about Marley that would attract the attention of Miss Turner.
The only thing that set her apart from the other members of the Baxter family was that she was the only one who had not hurt Kyra.
That was why Selena had chosen her to repay Diego's favor.
In the misty rain, Marley bent down as she watched the gradually moving figure of the young girl.
Leia caught sight of Marley's movement and relaxed her furrowed brows.
Thank goodness this was a different girl from Constance, otherwise...
Hmph!
Thinking of Dante, who was tortured by illness and pain almost to the point of being unrecognizable, Leia's eyes flashed with anger.
She looked at Selena's delicate face and asked softly, "Madam Selena, is there anything else to be careful of on the Baxter family's side?"
Selena shook her head. "The Baxter family is destined to decline in this generation."
Leia snorted, "Madam Selena, you have done nothing wrong. Those troublemakers from the Baxter family deserve to be taught a lesson!"
"Without their family background to rely on, they won't be able to bully people anymore. Madam Selena, you're doing a good thing!"
Selena chuckled and curved her lips. "The Baxter family is just the beginning. There will be more families to be reshuffled."
For example, the Shaw family, the Riddle family, the Soo family, and the Poole family!
Everyone who owed the Turner family would eventually pay the price for their actions.
Facing many respectful and fearful eyes, Selena calmly walked into the conference room.
The people in the research department had prepared everything early on when they learned that Selena was stepping into the research institute.
Although they had only worked together for a short time, everyone knew that the new head of the research department was someone who hated wasting time.
So they prepared their work meticulously and dared not be the slightest bit careless or negligent.
In the gap left by the arrival of the Turner family's miss, the entire research department fell into an unprecedented state of clarity and seriousness. Even the top executives of the research institute who had opposed Selena before had to admit that the research department under the Turner family's hands and the one under the Shaw family were completely two extremes.
Under these circumstances, everyone knew in their hearts that it was only a matter of time before the Shaw family was driven out of the research institute.
In the evening, when Selena had finished her work and was about to go home, someone suddenly approached her.
Selena looked at Matilda who had come in and put down the glass in her hand. "Miss Wallace, what's the matter?"
Selena and Matilda were not particularly familiar, so it couldn't be a private matter that brought her here.
Selena had a pretty good idea of what kind of business could make Matilda come in person.
Immediately, a playful smile appeared at the corner of her mouth. When Matilda met her teasing gaze, she smiled gently and said, "Let me make it clear first, this is not my intention. I'm just responsible for being a messenger."
