"If it's not mine, there's no way I could be so confident about it."
"Although Lydia doesn't have a sociable personality, her abilities have always been outstanding. The research department really rushed this time!"
"From the looks of it, that design portfolio really seems to belong to Lydia."
Listening to these discussions, Cohen's heart became more and more restless. He glanced at Dennis on the stage, and their eyes met in a moment of dark calculation. Then they both turned away.
While everyone's attention was focused on the two on stage, Cohen silently took a step back and walked out.
Patrick was still thinking about the argument Selena had just mentioned, and he turned to look at her.
Selena was slumped on the sofa, her black hat covering her eyes, making it impossible to read her expression. He could only tell from her tense lips that the young girl was feeling agitated.
Patrick lowered his eyes and asked softly, "Did he make you angry?"
Selena was silent for a moment before languidly responding, "... no."
Before Patrick could ask further, Selena pursed her lips and said in a low voice, "I made him angry..." After a moment of hesitation, she added uncertainly, "Probably."
Patrick's expression relaxed. Selena wasn't someone who made a fuss for no reason, and compared to her, Osvaldo was more likely to be the problem.
Besides, what kind of boyfriend would leave his girlfriend alone after getting angry at her?
Patrick's face darkened a bit.
Christ squinted his eyes and stared at Selena for a long time, then looked around and realized that Osvaldo wasn't present. It was easy for him to guess that the young couple was having a disagreement.
He sneered.
Winnie had been staring at Christ since Selena arrived, and her absurd suspicion was now confirmed. She glared at Selena, her pretty face turning pale.
Both Osvaldo and Christ were the most powerful and influential men in Capital. Despite the efforts of countless socialites and wealthy daughters, none of them had been able to win them over. And yet Selena, who had just arrived in Capital, had managed to attract the attention of two men at the same time. How could that not make people jealous?
What qualifications did she have?
Freddie looked at Selena, then at Christ, and judged their relationship in his mind. The more he thought about it, the darker his expression became.
As for Vivian, who had just been attacked by Selena and couldn't get off the stage, her eyes were full of hatred as she glared at Selena.
There were turbulent undercurrents among the major families, but the people in the research institute were unaware of them. All their attention was focused on Lydia and Dennis on the stage.
After answering all the questions, Lydia let out a sigh of relief.
Lady Selena said that this was her greatest confidence, and there shouldn't be any problems, right?
As Lydia's nerves began to relax, she suddenly heard Dennis' voice beside her, "Lydia, because we used to be together, I'll give you a chance. If you tell everyone now that the design is mine, then I'll pretend like nothing happened. Otherwise, don't blame me for not keeping our past relationship in mind!"
Lydia was furious at such shameless remarks. Her face turned pale, and she stared at the repulsive face across from her, shouting angrily, "That's mine!"
Dennis looked down on her with disdain, his face dark and arrogant. "Since you insist on seeking death, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
Initially, he was still wary of the Turner family's backing, and didn't plan to take things to the extreme. But that bitch Selena made a big deal out of it and mobilized the entire research institute to act as judges, putting him directly in the fire!

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...
