Chapter 1357 Swearing!
She was forcing them to agree to participate in the election for the director of the research institute!
But could they refuse?
If a group of people who were focused on the scientific research of H Country and held a neutral
position, were prevented from voting even though the two researchers recommended by the Poole
family and the Shaw family had so many more votes than Selena, wasn't it obvious that they had
ulterior motives?!
But once they agreed to their candidacy, with the prestige of the Turner family and Selena's strength,
the research institute could really change hands today!
Knowing that he was in the wrong, but concerning his own interests, Henry still had to refuse with a
thick-skinned face.
He was just about to speak when Christ suddenly turned his head and looked at him.
Henry met the warning in the man's eyes, and the words he was about to say suddenly got stuck in his
throat.
This guy's meaning was quite clear.
Shut up!
Henry's face turned sullen.
He had worked hard for the Poole family and had been tortured by Selena, but in the end, the Poole
family's young master and miss had betrayed the family.
Henry was full of resentment.
At the moment he received Christ's warning, Henry was also angry.
He didn't care anymore!
Anyway, the position of the director of the research institute was no longer in the hands of the Poole
family, and even the person in charge of the Poole family didn't care, so why bother?
Henry really shut his mouth.
He had hoped to join forces with the Poole family to refuse Freddie from Principal Marshall, but seeing
this situation, his heart sank heavily.
If the Poole family were to abandon the matter and rely solely on the Shaw family, it would be
impossible to stop so many people from "meddling in other people's affairs".
Seeing that no one spoke, Principal Marshall immediately said, "Since you all agree, the voting will
continue!"
After speaking, without even looking at the ugly faces of the Poole family and the Shaw family, Principal
Marshall turned his head and fixed a stern gaze on Selena's face.
"Miss Turner, I only need one promise from you!"
Selena nodded. "Please speak, Principal Marshall."
Principal Marshall stared at Selena's eyes, "In your lifetime, no matter what you encounter in the future,
you must not do anything that is harmful to H Country or its people!"
Selena smiled.
In front of everyone, she suddenly stood up. The smile on her face disappeared in an instant, and her
expression became solemn and dignified.
She raised her right hand to her ear and saluted Principal Marshall with a crisp and pleasant voice
echoing throughout the room.
"I swear to treat the weak with kindness!
I swear to resist all wrongdoings!
I swear to fight for the unarmed people!
I swear not to harm any innocent person!
I swear to defend my country and love my people!"
Principal Marshall stared at the young girl in awe, feeling a surge of indescribable passion and shock in
her heart.
As someone who had climbed out of the slums and worked half her life to reach her current position,
she could see at a glance that Selena's movements were too skilled and too standard!
As if she had done this gesture countless times before. She had already integrated this solemnity and
responsibility into her blood and bones.
Principal Marshall smiled, raised her hand, and returned Selena's salute with a standard military salute,
saying in a deep voice, "If you violate your oath in the future, even if you are Callum's daughter, I will
not let you go!"
Selena smiled back solemnly, "I will return the same words to everyone present!"
Principal Marshall laughed. She turned around, stepped onto the podium, and heavily drew a stroke
under Selena's name amidst the dead silence.
After completing this stroke, Principal Marshall did not stop. She spoke up, "Principal Marshall, on
behalf of the ten leaders of Union University, supports Miss Turner's appointment as the dean of the
research institute!"
Before anyone else could react, Principal Marshall drew ten strokes under Selena's name again. This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
The others in the conference room were still stunned by Selena's sudden transformation. Upon hearing
Principal Marshall's words, they shuddered and came back to their senses. Vivian cried out in a sharp
voice, "Principal Marshall, you are clearly cheating!"
Principal Marshall suddenly turned her head, glaring fiercely at Vivian. "What did you say?!"
Vivian trembled with fear. Freddie pulled the out-of-control Vivian behind him, gritting his teeth as he
looked at Principal Marshall. "Principal Marshall, there has never been any proxy voting since the
establishment of the research institute."
"What you are doing is clearly unreasonable!"
"From today onwards, there will be!" Principal Marshall sneered, looking at the Shaw family with
disgust. "There are a total of eleven leaders in Union University, and every one of them has retired from
the battlefield."
"Except for me, the remaining ten people have broken legs, broken arms, and blindness... They cannot
walk in front of others!"
"You tell me, what's wrong with me casting a vote on their behalf?!" Freddie's face turned pale.
Seeing that the Shaw family had become honest, Principal Marshall snorted coldly and walked off the
stage.
The venue fell silent.
Selena watched in amazement and turned to Oscar, "Thank you, Uncle."
She knew that Principal Marshall's unwavering support for her was all thanks to Oscar.
As a young and inexperienced person, even though she was Callum's daughter and had extraordinary
abilities, she would not have received such treatment without Oscar's help.
Oscar looked at Selena with a visibly surprised expression and asked, "Who taught you that just now?"
Clearly, not only Principal Marshall but also Oscar had noticed Selena's exceptional performance.
And perhaps it was because Selena couldn't help but show off in front of him from time to time, Oscar
felt that her military-style demeanor was even more profound than Principal Marshall's.
If he had only been nostalgic before, now Oscar could basically confirm it.
Selena must have had a deep connection with the military.
When Selena met Oscar's curious gaze, she coughed nervously.
For Oscar, it was a simple matter to conceal his emotions with a command.
He openly expressed his doubts to Selena, apparently wanting to see if she was willing to be honest
with him.
Although Selena had already revealed her age, name, and the fact that she had experienced the
underground city incident to Oscar, as a member of the Riddle family, her information was classified as
top secret.
It was impossible for outsiders to obtain it.
So far, Oscar only knew who she was.
He could only speculate about her abilities based on minor details.
Selena blinked and smiled, "The Turner family is full of talents. Uncle is the first commander in Capital,
and My younger uncle has served in the army. It's normal for me to have more military style, isn't it?"
Oscar immediately understood Selena's meaning and did not bring it up again.
But his gaze towards Selena became more complicated.
Almost all of the Turner family's strengths seemed to be embodied in this girl.
Could it be that she really had no relationship with the Turner family?!
