Chapter 1367 Shameless Old Man! The butler coughed, "Miss Selena was caught speeding while driving today and was stopped by the police." Oscar was worried about Selena and had someone secretly follow her.
The Turner family was the first to receive the news of Selena being taken to the traffic police station, but Selena clearly had no intention of letting anyone know about this embarrassing incident, so the Turner family pretended not to know.
Patrick turned around to go and rescue Selena, but the butler spoke up again, "Mr. Anderson has already gone." Patrick paused in his steps.
As he looked at the dark night outside the door, his eyes conveyed an indescribable meaning.
Whenever Selena encountered something, she always sought out that man.
Deep down in her heart, perhaps she never really considered the Turner family as her own family.
After a long time, Patrick spoke up, "It's all right, Tom. Go rest." The butler probably sensed the awkwardness between the siblings and sighed, "Young Master has asked you to go find him." Patrick went upstairs and into Oscar's room.
The next morning, Selena took Leia to the research institute early.
The Turner family acted quickly, and with the support of the researchers who wanted Selena to take charge, the handover was completed in just one day.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAs someone who never wasted time, Selena's first task in office was to settle accounts.
In just a few days, the backbone forces of the Shaw family and the Poole family within the research institute were completely uprooted.
The remaining minor forces were only a matter of time before they were cleared out as well.
This was the first time that people from the major families had witnessed Selena's methods as a leader.
Her actions were quick and ruthless, striking at the heart of the matter, and what was even more frightening was that she left no room for anyone to find fault.
The Shaw family, which had been in business for so many years, was completely crushed and fell out of the four major families without any surprise.
The downfall of the Shaw family also marked the beginning of a new round of reshuffling in the capital's power structure.
Those families that had never had any grudges against the Turner family no longer hesitated and immediately sought opportunities to align themselves with the Turner family.
With the fall of the Shaw family, the Poole family remained undecided, and those who had a grudge against the Turner family had no choice but to turn to the Soo family, who were related to Selena and the Riddle family.
While the Shaw family's downfall could be attributed to the victor and the vanquished, the Soo family's treacherous behavior was unacceptable to anyone.
Nicholas, ambitious as he was, would not let go of this opportunity, and he welcomed all defectors.
The Soo family, breaking from their past of being reserved and low-key for over two decades, openly became one of the four new major families in the capital.
However, Selena was unaffected by the external forces at the moment as she had been busy in the research institute, improving the discipline and atmosphere.
After she had established the proper workflow in each department, Selena's work finally came to an end.
Osvaldo brought her back to the villa, and after a good sleep, Selena finally had the mood to pay attention to other matters.
In the fragrant garden, Selena listened to Leia's detailed report about the latest developments in the capital, showing no surprise at all. She then asked about the Shaw family, "The Shaw family's siblings must be having a hard time lately, right?" Leia sneered and replied, "The young master of the Shaw family has taken all the blame on himself. If he hadn't taken the fall for Vivian, she would have been beaten to death by the Shaw family's people long ago.” Selena raised her eyebrows slightly.
Although the Shaw family had declined, Freddie had been in power for many years, and he had not openly broken ties with Osvaldo.
The Shaw family could not act openly against him even if they hated him.
Moreover, there was still Diana in Freddie's grip.
Selena smirked, "The Shaw family's siblings may not have given up yet, so keep an eye on them!" Osvaldo had already given orders for this, so there was no need to remind him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLeia asked Selena, "Madam Selena, do we need to deal with the Soo family?" The Soo family had been established for many years and was more powerful than the Shaw family, and with Nicholas’ ambitious nature, they were sure to use any means necessary.
Selena put down her teacup and picked up a book. "It's just a matter of time, no need to make it so complicated," she said calmly. After speaking, Selena suddenly seemed to think of something and narrowed her eyes slightly.
The Turner family had just regained control of the research institute, so it was not advisable to make big moves for the time being. On the other hand, the Soo family was in the midst of recruiting human resources.
Except for the Poole family, almost all the families in the capital who had grudges with the Turner family would seek out the Soo family.
This included...
Selena's eyes flickered with a hint of playful cunning as she instructed Leia, "If Mr. Riddle calls in the next few days, please agree on my behalf." Leia carefully interpreted Selena's words and then exclaimed in surprise, "Madam Selena, are you suggesting that the Soo family may cooperate with the Riddle family?!" After all, Selena herself was a member of the Riddle family. If they teamed up with outsiders to target their own blood, such a thing...
But when Leia thought of the Riddle family's coldness towards Nevaeh in the past, she suddenly felt that they were indeed capable of such a thing when it came to family matters. Who would care about a granddaughter they had never cared about before when it came to their family's interests? Moreover, Selena had publicly stated her intention to target the Riddle family in front of Maddox...
Leia looked at Selena's pure face and thought of her own young apprentice, feeling a bit sad. She whispered, "Mr. Riddle shouldn't be so heartless..." Selena's expression remained indifferent. "Regardless of Leon's capabilities, he still has to call Maddox ‘grandfather’ in public.
Besides, I've already said that | won't let the Riddle family off the hook. Just for this reason, the other members of the Riddle family cannot just sit back and watch the Turner family grow.” With the Turner family already engaged to the Anderson family, the probability of the Soo family cooperating with the Riddle family was high.
As for the ultimate outcome for the Riddle family...
It all depended on who was more skilled, Leon or Maddox.
Selena's eyes darkened as she coldly chuckled.
Leia was so angry that she could hardly contain herself. "Those shameless old bastards!" Selena reached out and gently stroked the young girl's hair to soothe her.
Leia looked at Selena's unchanging face and spoke softly, "Madam Selena, Madam Laurence called this morning and invited you to go out for tea this afternoon. Shall we bring Miss Hattie along?" Selena said with a smile, "Sure, let's go."
