Chapter 1266 Is she a bad person?
Selena led Hattie and followed Patrick into the gate.
In the hall, besides Oscar and Cillian who she had already met, there was an unfamiliar old man. After
Selena greeted him, she took Hattie to sit on the other side.
Diego looked at Selena and smiled, "If Wilfred was still alive, he would be so happy and proud to see
such a beautiful and outstanding granddaughter."
Suddenly, Diego turned and said, "Kyra, come and say hello to Miss Turner." Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
Selena was startled and followed Diego's gaze, only to realize that there was someone sitting behind
him.
It was a young woman in her twenties, wearing a black long dress with a slender and fragile body and a
sickly pale complexion.
When she heard Diego's words, she lifted her head and looked at Selena silently, but didn't speak.
Diego said to Selena, "This is my granddaughter, Kyra. She's sick and a bit shy. Don't mind her."
Selena stared at the girl's lifeless and desolate black eyes.
She had been here for so long but didn't notice that there was someone else sitting next to Diego.
Selena smiled slightly, "I don't mind."
Diego seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and said to Kyra, "If you feel too stuffy, go for a walk in the
garden."
Kyra stood up, bent over to Cillian and Oscar, and walked out silently.
Selena lowered her head and looked at Hattie beside her, "Hattie, can you help me entertain that girl?"
"Sure."
Hattie picked up a cup of unopened milk tea and followed Kyra out.
Diego looked at Selena with a more gentle look in his eyes. He picked up a document from the table
and handed it solemnly to Selena, "I'm giving the research institute back to you!"
Selena was suddenly stunned.
Patrick next to her was also shocked. Oscar and Cillian, however, didn't show too much surprise on
their faces.
Selena looked at the old hand in front of her and followed her gaze to the document that represented
the formal change of control of the research institute. She looked at the equally old eyes opposite her
and asked, "Do you know what you're doing?"
Diego's tone was full of remorse, "It's all us old folks who are useless! In the face of the disaster that
befell the Turner family, we couldn't even keep what it left behind. It's our fault, I am sorry for the Turner
family's fault, and Wilfred. We owe them all an apology..."
Selena had dark eyes with a trace of sadness. Since entering the capital, she had seen many wolves
and tigers fighting for power, but rarely saw anyone who had helped the Turner family during the
catastrophe.
She couldn't help feeling disappointed.
The Turner family had protected everyone, yet no one had stood up to protect them.
This group, without any sense of chivalry or loyalty, was undoubtedly disappointing and unpleasant.
But Selena only learned today that there were people who had helped the Turner family back then.
Principal Chow had been a living target for twenty years to protect Callum's research data.
Milana, a weak woman, had defected from her family to save the virus data that Callum had sent out
and remained unmarried for life.
And this old man before her, who would rather carry the reputation of being ungrateful for twenty years
than let the Turner family lose their last thing.
In that situation back then, if the Baxter family had not intervened, the control of the research institute
would have been divided between the Shaw family and the Poole family sooner or later.
Seeing that the last thing of the Turner family was about to be lost, the Baxter family had no choice but
to intervene. Using the identity of a special researcher, Diego seized control of the research institute on
the surface.
Although he became the public face of the institute, out of guilt and not wanting to see the institute
deteriorate any further, Diego had been traveling abroad all these years and had never come back to
take a look.
Until the son of the Turner family grew up.
The daughter of the Turner family became famous in the capital.
Oscar returned.
The Turner family was propped up again, once again becoming the first family that everyone feared.
Selena understood the cause and effect and took the document from Diego's hand. She stood up and
solemnly bowed to Diego, "Thank you."
Diego looked at Selena with satisfaction. With this girl here, the Turner family's return to the research
institute was only a matter of time.
After chatting for a while, Diego got up to leave. Selena personally escorted the old man out.
Before getting into the car, Diego turned his head and looked at Selena.
Diego looked at the young girl's delicate and beautiful face and thought of his own granddaughter.
Though it was difficult to bring up, he spoke, "Can I ask you for a favor?"
Selena nodded, "Of course."
Diego's gaze fell on Kyra, who was squatting on the ground with Hattie in the garden, and his
expression turned bitter. "I am getting old, and I don't have many days left. I can let go of everything
else, but my only granddaughter..."
"Once I am gone, there will be no one to protect her..."
Selena raised an eyebrow. She had heard from Leia about Constance, the only daughter of the Baxter
family, but now Diego said that Kyra was his only granddaughter.
She was puzzled, but still assured him, "Don't worry. Kyra will be a guest of honor in the Turner family
from now on."
Diego received a reassuring answer, and his face immediately softened. He waved his hand and said,
"Kyra, it's time to go home."
After a while, Kyra walked over and got in the car with Diego.
After the Baxter family left, Selena looked down at Hattie beside her. Hattie frowned, seeming unsure of
how to express herself. "Selena... "
Selena looked at the young girl's hesitant expression and smiled. "Is she a bad person?"
Hattie shook her head, "No, she is a good person!"
Selena chuckled. Hattie was good at judging people. She didn't like women like Vivian, Diana, or
Constance.
"That's enough," Selena took Hattie's hand and walked back, saying to Leia, "Go and investigate Kyra's
information."
Since she had promised to protect Kyra for Diego, she naturally had to find out what had happened to
her.
That night, Leia brought the investigation results to Selena's room, but she didn't hand them over
directly. Her expression was even uneasy. "Madam Selena..."
Selena put down her pen and looked up, "What's wrong?"
Leia whispered, "We found Miss Kyra's information. After you read it... don't be angry..."
Selena narrowed her eyes slightly.
She had nothing to do with Kyra.
She had promised to protect her only out of gratitude to Diego.
But from Leia's words, it was obvious that the situation was not so simple.
