After the incident that almost destroyed the Turner family last time, Lydia realized that the other party was deliberately targeting her all along. It was only because she still had some use value at that time that Cohen showed a strict attitude towards her. Now, he no longer hides his disgust and dislike for her.
Upon hearing Cohen's questioning, Lydia immediately raised her head and said coldly, "My design sketches, each one has my fingerprints and notes on them. As long as you check them, you'll know who they belong to!"
Cohen sneered and pressured Lydia without changing his expression, "What kind of evidence is that? Everyone knows that you used to date Dennis, so it's normal for you to touch his things, right?"
Lydia's heart sank and her face turned white, "I never touched anything of Dennis's. He was the one who took my things!"
Cohen said coldly, "That's just your word against his. Why should we believe you?"
Lydia gritted her teeth and argued, "That's mine! You know very well that my design sketches are better than Dennis's. He doesn't have the ability to draw so many sketches..."
Cohen clearly saw that Lydia couldn't produce any evidence, and coldly interrupted her, "Enough! Design is all about inspiration. I personally trained Dennis, and he has always been better than you. You are obviously unwilling to be kicked out of the research institute, deliberately slandering him!"
Lydia looked at the middle-aged man across from her, who was lying through his teeth, and tears of anger were about to fall, "My mom, dad, and young master can prove that the sketch is mine. Every time I finish drawing, I show it to them..."
Cohen's expression completely relaxed, "Your family will naturally side with you, Lydia. If you can't produce any evidence, go apologize to Dennis and leave the research institute. Don't try to cause trouble anymore!"
Lydia was so angry that her eyes turned dim. When she handed the design sketch to Dennis, the only bystander was Natalie. However, Natalie stood on Dennis and Alina's side and wouldn't testify for her.
Leia looked at Lydia's heartbroken expression and frowned, went to see Selena, and whispered, "Young Madam..."
Leia knew that Selena intentionally trained Lydia, but not everyone has Selena's sharpness and aura. When she saw a pretty girl being bullied, the little girl first softened.
Selena leaned against the table with a cold expression.
Hearing Leia's voice, she placed the cup in her hand on the table.
Although Leia's voice was very small, it had a magical quality that instantly attracted everyone's attention.
After all, everyone knew that Lydia was not a concern; it was Selena who was difficult to talk to. Selena looked at Cohen's confident expression and coldly smiled, "Before we talk about this matter, can everyone here tell me what crime Lydia committed that resulted in her being stripped of her gunsmith status and expelled from the research institute?"
The atmosphere in the room suddenly quieted down. Lydia's expression became even angrier, and Cohen's expression stiffened as he met Selena's dark and icy eyes, his face showing signs of guilt.
No one spoke.
Selena smiled with little warmth and stared at Cohen. "No one wants to answer my question?"
The people in the room looked at each other, then finally turned their gaze to Cohen. After all, Lydia was from the Science and Technology Department, and it was Cohen's decision to expel her from the research institute.
How could outsiders know the reason? Selena's remark had caused the crowd to suddenly realize this fact.
Everyone in the Science and Technology Department was talented, and even though Lydia had a poor temperament, many people knew about her strength in weapon design. For someone as talented as her, who hadn't committed any major mistakes, who would dare to revoke her credentials and professional title?

The readers' comments on the novel: Revenge On Love Rats After Rebirth by Olivia Marsh
From the beginning of the story to page 148, the plot is just going in circles about fighting. So ridiculous and waste of time to read! I have no patience for these kind stories. Be more creative if you’re planning to write a book/story!!!...
Beautiful story...
