Chapter 1114 Bullying As the new head of the Research Department, Selena's prestige was bound to plummet.
The popularity she had worked so hard to build up before would also go down the drain.
Despite the young girl's worried gaze, Selena's face remained unchanged as she asked, "Is this the place?" Marley snapped out of her thoughts, looked up, and realized that they had already arrived at the Research Department. She nodded immediately, "Here we are, Miss Turner, please go in." Selena nodded back at Marley and walked in without any hesitation.
The internal staff of the Research Department were taken aback when they saw Selena. The department had suffered greatly since Miss Turner joined the institute.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCohen was dismissed, Dennis was stripped of his status as a mechanic and kicked out of the institute for plagiarizing Lydia, and Diana had a car crash and was arrested. In addition, many other young and talented people, such as Alina, Natalie, and Miriam, were implicated in two incidents. Miss Turner had cleaned them all out. Now she had becthe head of the Research Department in broad daylight. How could the others not be afraid? Ignoring the many different looks cast upon her, Selena looked around the environment of the Research Department. Though she appeared easygoing, she was known for being picky and delicate. As she was about to take on her new role, she wouldn't mind spending a little effort to make schanges. After all, this place had been plagued by monsters before.
Selena didn't speak, and the others naturally didn't dare to speak either. Lydia received a call from Patrick and hurried over as soon as she heard that Selena was taking office today. "Miss, you're here." Without her coat on, it was evident that she had rushed over from an experiment. Selena glanced at Lydia, "Go back and continue with your experiment." Then she sat down on the chair by the window and said in a light tone, "Can someone introduceto the basic situation of the Research Department?" Lydia didn't dare to disobey Selena's wishes. Seeing that Selena didn't have any other matters to attend to, she turned around and left. The group of people left behind looked at each other but no one stepped forward.
Leia narrowed her eyes, her expression turning sour. Selena smiled slightly. The Research Department was the Shaw family's territory. With the Shaw family in power for many years, most of the people inside would definitely be from the Shaw family. Their attitude towards her, an unpopular and untrustworthy department head, would naturally not be good.
But the cautionary tale of Dennis and Diana was there, and even the most arrogant person would not dare to say they were not afraid of Selena's thunderous methods. So the best course of action was to play dead. As long as they did not make any mistakes in their work, Selena would not be able to find any leverage against them.
With her hand lazily propped against her forehead, Selena watched the scene unfold and gave a smile. She was about to teach this group of people a lesson but suddenly, the sound of high heels clacking on the ground outside interrupted her.
In the next second, the door was pushed open from the outside.
Vivian stood outside the door and saw Selena sitting in the research department's position as if it were her own, her eyes flashing with disgust. The other members of the research department saw Vivian and breathed a sigh of relief, respectfully calling out, "Miss Shaw!" Vivian looked at Selena and lifted her chin, saying coldly, "Selena, the deans of the institute and Zone Six are all out on business these days and have no tto deal with your affairs. Until you hand over the promised design, you have no right to sit in this position. Now, stand up and get out!" Selena smiled coldly and asked, "Miss Shaw, what did you say? | didn't hear you. Can you say it again?" Facing those chilling eyes, Vivian's spine shuddered. Leia pointed at Vivian's nose and started to curse, "Lady Selena's position as head of the research department was personally confirmed by the deans of the institute and Zone Six. Who do you think you are to make Lady Selena leave?" As Leia spoke angrily, she took out her phone and said, "lI want to see what happens when your words reach the ears of the Zone Six deans. What will be the fate of this so-called Miss Shaw?" Vivian's expression suddenly changed. But when she looked around and realized that everyone present was from the Shaw family, and there was no surveillance here, what could Selena do if she complained? As long as she did not admit anything, it would only make others look down on this Miss Turner even more! Selena raised her hand to stop Leia from making the call. It was never her style to tattle on others.
Selena had hardly ever reported anyone, not even Osvaldo, let alone others. Her way of doing things was to rely on herself.
Without looking at Vivian's confident expression, Selena's gaze fell on the mechanics who had not spoken a word since the beginning.
"Did you all hear what Miss Shaw just said?" The mechanics thought Selena wanted them to speak up and testify for her, and a cold smile appeared on their faces.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWith Vivian present, they were not afraid of Selena anymore.
Immediately, they all eagerly spoke up.
"What did Miss Shaw say just now? | didn't hear anything." "I didn't hear anything either. Miss Shaw is the master of the research department, and she can do whatever she wants on her own territory. Even if the department head has no right to defher." "Miss Shaw did not say anything, but our newly appointed head of the research department, relying on the power of Zone Six, openly bullies people. | wonder what consequences these actions will have when they reach the ears of the Zone Six members." Vivian's face showed a satisfied smirk.
Leia was furious after hearing this.
Selena, however, remained calm, nodding her head lightly and speaking in an emotionless tone, "Very well, Leia. Circle the names of these people and investigate them one by one. As soon as you find any evidence of wrongdoing, immediately expel them from the research department." Those who had been proud of their achievements in front of Vivian suddenly froze in their tracks.
Vivian's expression also changed, staring at Selena angrily. "Selena, how dare you?!" Selena had already cleaned up most of the young generation trained by the Shaw family. If she couldn't even weed out the remaining ones, what kind of prestige would the Shaw family have in the research department? Selena lazily leaned back in her chair, her voice still extremely flat, "lI don't keep people with bad behavior around here." Seeing Vivian's angry face turn pale, Selena smiled, "Miss Shaw, there's no need to be so furious. After all, as long as these people behave themselves and haven't done anything wrong, why should they fear an investigation?" Vivian's face twitched heavily.
