Chapter 1147 Bring Her Here
The following day, the written test results were swiftly announced. Nicole, who had arrived at the science academy, prepared herself for the afternoon interview.
Her remarkable performance stood out, surpassing all others on the list.
If all went according to plan, she would have the opportunity to join the science academy.
Meanwhile, in another room…
Natasha looked at Logan and Ryan in front of her before respectfully reporting, "Mr. Yael, I have almost completed all the tasks."
Logan's penetrating gaze focused on her as he narrowed his eyes. Then, as if something had just occurred to him, he smirked and said, "Nicely done."
She couldn't contain her excitement. Her hands clasped together as she gazed up at Logan. So, it was with a heart brimming with anticipation that she uttered, "Um… Mr. Yael, regarding my position…"
A sinister smile gradually etched onto Logan's lips as he peered at Natasha with his murky eyes. Then, he reached into his pocket and retrieved something before handing it over to her.
Natasha glanced down at the object now in her hand, a flicker of confusion crossing her eyes as she looked up at Logan.
Logan's voice grew profound as he instructed, "You need to bring Nicole here and spray this substance on her face. Only then will your task be considered complete, and the academy will reserve a place for you."
Natasha was taken aback by this revelation. She thought that her role was simply to treat Nicole kindly. Her lips trembled as she hesitantly asked, "W-What is… this?"
"It's a sedative," he replied slowly.
Her pupils quivered with unease as she began to grasp Logan's sinister plan.
When he caught sight of her hesitant expression, he proceeded without any politeness whatsoever, saying, "Natasha, now that you know everything about me. If you refuse to comply, you won't even have a place in Durobrivae."
Thus, Natasha immediately realized that she had no way out once she was confronted with Logan's menacing threat. The moment she left Durobrivae, it would condemn her to a world of worthlessness once again. No, I don't want that! I have to enter the science academy! This is my one and only chance to transform my life for the better!
She seemed to have made up her mind. Her palm gradually closed over the bottle, tightly gripping her 'chance' as she held it in her hand.
Then, she drew in a deep breath, lifted her gaze toward Logan, and asked, "Mr. Yael, if I carry out this task, can you guarantee my admission into the academy?"
"Of course," he responded with a stern voice. "Nicole ranked first in the exam, and if she misses the interview, her spot will be yours. Natasha, I advise that you consider your options carefully."
She nodded, a flicker of ambition glimmering in her eyes. Then, she didn't utter another word as she turned and exited the room directly.
After Natasha had departed, Ryan leaned closer to Logan and asked in a hushed voice, "Grandpa, do you believe she will truly follow through?"
"She's a woman who values opportunity over reputation. Now that she has such a promising prospect, she won't back down so easily. Have you assembled the people I asked you to?" Logan inquired, shifting his gaze.
His animosity toward White ran deep. Once he attained power and influence, his sole intention was to dismantle White piece by piece.
Unfortunately, White's untimely demise left Logan's pent-up fury with no outlet.
Following White's death, Nicole concealed herself for a long time. Despite his efforts to locate her, not even the slightest trace could be found.
It was only a few months ago that Nicole finally revealed her identity. Logan had long plotted to eradicate everything associated with White, including Nicole and the medical base.
As thoughts of the medical base consumed his mind, a glint of cunning flickered in Logan's murky eyes. After a moment of contemplation, he inquired, "By the way, how are things progressing at the medical base?"
"We've managed most of it. We can finally tighten the net after dangling the bait for so many years," Ryan replied with a smirk.
Gina, a member of the medical base, was easily enticed by greed. She was willing to stoop to any depths as long as the price was right. Now that they had deliberately sweetened the deal to lure her into their trap, it was only expected that she would jump right into the frying pan without asking further questions.
