Chapter 1339 Miss Turner, You Don't Have the Qualification!
He was no longer the Cassius who had caused the death of so many people just for the vicious Kiera!
With this thought in mind, Luke's eyes turned cold and his steps quickened as he left.
Inside the conference room of the research institute.
After hearing Selena's words, Freddie finally couldn't help but speak up.
He stared at Selena with a gloomy expression and said, "Miss Turner, you should know when to stop. You've only been in the
research institute for less than six months, and you already want to take over the whole institute and turn it into something
belonging to the Turner family. Do you really think that's realistic?"
Selena met Freddie's gaze without flinching and smiled. "If | have the ability, why not?"
"Based on your mysterious background?" Freddie's eyes were filled with mockery, and there was a hint of threat in his gaze. "Miss
Turner, although you're the daughter of Lady Nevaeh and Mr. Turner, they never got married. Your mother was pregnant out of
wedlock!"
"Miss Turner, are you really the heiress of the Turner family?"
As soon as Freddie finished speaking, everyone in the room was shocked.
No one expected Freddie to bring up Selena's background.
But on second thought, it was not surprising.
Selena's reswas too perfect, and the only thing that could be used against her was her complicated background.
It was well known that Lady Nevaeh and Callum were lovers, but they never got married. Lady Nevaeh was pregnant out of
wedlock, and Selena didn't grow up in the Turner family. Moreover, she had a pair of foster parents who were not high-ranking
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtenough, so strictly speaking... she couldn't be considered a true heiress of the Turner family!
Speople looked at Selena with a hint of pity in their eyes.
Although the idea of judging someone based on their background was outdated in this day and age, in the noble circle, the
heiresses of truly prestigious families were not allowed to have even the slightest blemish.
The director of the research institute was the representative of the entire institute, and throughout history, every one of them had
been respected and revered.
If Freddie's words still left sroom for interpretation, Vivian's was a blatant mockery.
"The Turner family can accept an illegitimate child as their young lady, but my Shaw family would never stoop so low to compare
ourselves with such people and lower our status," Vivian raised her chin and looked down at Selena contemptuously, saying with a
smile, "It's shameful to fight against a bastard. If the Turner family wants to compete for the position of the dean, they should find
someone else!"
The members of the Turner family present all had their expressions changed.
Selena narrowed her eyes slightly and stared coldly at Freddie.
At first, Freddie's words seemed to be mocking Selena's illegitimate status, but upon closer examination, it seemed more like some
kind of implication!
Thinking back to Freddie's recent collusion with Cassius, Selena's expression suddenly becdangerous.
Cassius was associated with "Divine Love," and Selena's sudden change in personality made it difficult to ensure that he didn't
know something...
Patrick's face was cold, "Don't forget, why my second uncle and Lady Nevaeh didn't get married back then!"
The expressions of many people present changed again.
Lady Nevaeh and Callum were famous for their love in the capital.
If it weren't for that accident, they would have surely gotten married.
But in order to solve the trouble at the Arctic laboratory, Callum left the capital and never returned.
The Turner family was wiped out.
Lady Nevaeh was forced to leave the capital while pregnant...
The young lady of the Turner family, who everyone had expected to pamper, beca fatherless illegitimate child wandering
outside.
Many people remembered what had happened back then, feeling ashamed and covering their faces.
However, Vivian was not aware of her own insensitivity. Seeing Selena silent, she thought she had a handle on her and sneered,
"No matter what the reason is, it doesn't change the fact that you are an illegitimate child!"
"What qualification does an illegitimate child have to sit with us?"
"It seems that the Turner family really has no one capable left. They actually want to use an illegitimate child to compete for the
position of the dean with many reputable and prestigious researchers present..." She looked at Selena disdainfully, disgust in her
eyes, and then turned away, "It's embarrassing!"
After Selena gained fame, the secrets of the Turner family were no longer hidden.
Both the older and younger generations knew the ins and outs.
Upon hearing Vivian's words, the researchers who admired Selena on the scene glared at her with angry and contemptuous eyes.
Faced with the sudden questioning, Selena remained calm and said in a flat tone, "My father is a hero, my mother is a hero, and
the Turner family is full of heroes."
She then asked, "As the descendant of a loyal martyr, do | need you, the Shaw family, who are devoid of righteousness, morality,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmpatriotism, and are petty and jealous, to acknowledge my identity?"
Vivian turned pale with anger and sneered, "As an illegitimate daughter, you can only use these words to comfort yourself!"
Selena ignored her and smiled slightly at the audience, saying, "I will go out now and say that | am Callum and Nevaeh's daughter,
the legitimate heiress of the Turner family. Would anyone dare to argue with me?"
Selena's words caused tension in the room again.
They dared to criticize Selena here because of their struggle for power, but if someone dared to say outside that Selena was an
illegitimate daughter, they would undoubtedly be torn apart by public opinion.
Patrick sneered and instructed his people, "Post a statement on the medical school website that the heiress is the most precious
daughter of the Turner family and cannot be doubted or defamed!"
Patrick remembered the look of confusion on Selena's face the last tthey discussed the issue of paternity.
Selena was extremely sensitive to her own identity, and although she seemed unaffected by the Shaw family's words, there must
have been semotional impact deep down.
They had to let everyone know that Selena was the only daughter of the Turner family!
The assistant immediately went to carry out the order.
The Shaw family's faces changed tically upon hearing Patrick's words.
The sudden statement from the Turner family in defense of Selena would surely attract the attention of many who were unaware of
the situation.
What the Shaw family had said in the past would undoubtedly be exposed.
At that time, the Shaw family would surely be drowned in the spittle of the masses!
The members of the Shaw family's faction looked at Vivian with disappointment. Freddie's words at least left sroom for
maneuver, and others could not find any evidence against him.
However, Vivian's arrogance and pride had truly pushed the reputation of the Shaw family to the point of no return!
