Chapter 1556 Sacred Pearl
Selena casually glanced at the two people on the ground and asked, "Is this Miss White you are talking
about?"
The two thugs immediately looked up at Beatrice. As they saw her appearance, their eyes lit up, and
they frantically pointed at her.
"Yes, yes, it's her!"
"This woman gave us money to kill that person named Lydia Turner... it seems like Lydia Turner
offended her, and she wanted to kill Lydia Turner to vent her anger..."
These two statements of identification not only shocked the people at the H Country Research Institute
but also stunned the group of researchers in the Central City.
Beatrice was also taken aback. After reacting, she immediately stood up and glared angrily at the two
people on the ground.
"This is a slander! I have never met you before. How could I have paid you to kill someone?!"
However, the two people's memories were manipulated, and in their minds, Beatrice did pay them to
kill Lydia. They were equally fervent in accusing her.
"It was clearly you! You gave us the money, and that's why we kidnapped that woman. Otherwise, we
didn't even know her, why would we kidnap her?"
"It was you who said that Lydia didn't know how to behave and offended you several times, making you
very unhappy. You wanted her dead. Otherwise, why would we go after a stranger for no reason?"
There was no trace of lying in the two people's expressions.
The researchers at the H Country Research Institute carefully considered what they had heard and
soon remembered that Lydia had indeed offended Beatrice yesterday.
Because Lydia had offended her, Beatrice wanted her dead?! What a vicious person!
Immediately, all the researchers at the H Country Research Institute glared at Beatrice with angry eyes.
The researchers in the Central City knew more about Beatrice, so they remembered the rumors about
her in the city. Their eyes also changed as they looked at her.
Beatrice tightly pinched her fingers into her palms and struggled to maintain her composure. Although
she was indeed behind this incident, she had instructed her subordinates to do it. She had never even
met these two people before!
However, these two people were insisting that she was the one who had paid them off.
There seems to be something fishy going on, but Beatrice dare not think too deeply about it. Whenever
she does, she can't help but shiver uncontrollably.
She stands in place with a proud expression and sneers, "I am an academician of the Federal Empire
Research Institute, and my mother is a princess of the Riddle Empire. Are you researchers from the H
Country Institute openly declaring war against my Central City based solely on the words of two people
with no evidence?"
As soon as Central City is mentioned, the expressions of the H Country researchers present change.
The gap between the two cities is too great, and with the other's mother being a princess of the Riddle
Empire, Beatrice is considered a half-member of the royal family. Even if she commits a crime, what
can they do to her?
Just as the group is filled with anger and unwillingness, they suddenly hear a sweet and light laugh
from the main seat.
After the laughter, Selena's face suddenly turns cold, "Arrest her!"
Instantly, the two law enforcement officers standing behind her step forward to grab Beatrice. Beatrice
can no longer maintain her composure and reveals a fierce expression, "How dare you--"
Before she can finish her sentence, the two law enforcement officers grab her arms and twist them
behind her back, handcuffing her wrists.
Beatrice looks at the handcuffs that symbolize humiliation on her wrists and almost faints from anger.
She glares fiercely at Selena, "If you arrest me, are you sure you can bear the consequences?"
Selena stands up and walks up to Beatrice. Her dark eyes stare at Beatrice, and the fear that comes
from within her rises again.
Sweat drips down Beatrice's back layer by layer. "Miss White, you must understand one thing when
you come to the capital city: you must abide by our laws in the capital city!"
"On this territory, let alone your mother being just a princess, even if the queen of the Riddle Empire
were to visit, she would have to abide by the rules that must be followed!"
Beatrice feels as though someone is choking her throat, and all sound disappears in an instant.
Her eyes widen to the extreme, and her arrogant and domineering expression disappears in an instant,
replaced with indescribable fear and shock.
Selena seems to have not noticed Beatrice's strange expression and turns to the group of researchers
from Central City, "Miss White killed one of our H Country Institute mechanics due to personal
grievances. I will contact Central City later to get an explanation for this matter!"
"Before that, if you are willing to continue our cooperation, we can proceed. If you are not willing, H
Country will arrange a plane to send you back to Central City immediately." Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.
"Please serve yourself." Selena said and then left with her people.
The people in the conference room stared at her back with wide eyes, and no one made a sound until
Selena's figure disappeared from sight.
...
After leaving the research institute, Selena went to the mansion to find Stanley.
The first thing Selena said when she saw Stanley was, "I caught Beatrice, but I didn't find Robert."
Stanley placed a cup of water with the perfect temperature in front of her. "The news of Robert's arrival
is information I obtained secretly. He is not part of the team in the central city openly."
Selena picked up the cup of water and frowned slightly. "If Robert comes to H Country, it must be to kill
me. But he knows you are here..."
"After my information is reported to the Federation, Lillian cannot ignore my current situation. They
must know how difficult it is to kill me now that I am in the capital city..."
However, Robert still came.
He was determined to be with Lillian and must have been confident that he could kill her in the capital
city, under the protection of the Turner family, the Anderson family, and even Zone Six.
Stanley looked at her thoughtful expression and stood quietly beside her without interrupting.
After a moment, Selena suddenly smiled, "There are too many things, and I almost forgot that there is
something that can make him completely kill me..."
"Sacred Pearl?" Stanley's eyes flickered slightly.
He had been in the capital city for three days and naturally knew about the incident of the "Sacred
Pearl" left behind in the H Country research institute.
Selena took a sip of water, frowned slightly, and put down the cup, "Yes, 'Sacred Pearl' is in the H
Country research institute. As long as Robert gets his hands on it, he can kill me."
"Not only me, but also you, Osvaldo, Black Crow and White Crow... anyone can die!"
No wonder Robert was so tempted that he still insisted on making this trip even though he knew she
was here.
