Chapter 1399 Storm Brewing


    Chapter 1399 Storm Brewing


    Upon hearing Oscar''s words, Selena understood immediately.


    In fact, Selena had asked the question suddenly because she had called Margotst night, and Margot


    had told her that she woulde to the capital to find her soon.


    And she even specifically mentioned that Mr. Chambers had asked her to tell Selena that if she needed


    help, she could go to the court president, and they would unconditionally assist her.


    As Selena had just returned to the Turner family, she took the opportunity to ask Oscar.


    However, Oscar''s answer made Selena feel relieved and at the same time, a bit suspicious.


    For the court president to help her because of her family''s identity and to unconditionally help her were


    two different things.


    What was Mr. Chambers thinking?


    Selena frowned and pondered. She remembered that the court president had helped her a lot since


    she came to the capital. But apart from Margot, she had no other connection with the court president,


    and it was unlikely that he would protect her so unconditionally.


    No free lunch in the world!


    "I have a feeling... that he has ulterior motives," Selena said with a slight frown.


    Patrick looked at Selena''s serious expressions and was amused, "The president Mr. Chambers is a


    good person."


    "Is he?" Selena blinked her eyes.


    Patrickughed and exined, "The court president won''t do anything harmful to the Turner family."


    After pausing for a moment, as if he had thought of something, he added, "Rest assured, he won''t hurt

    you."


    Patrick thought that Selena was worried that the court president would harm her after her identity was


    exposed.


    Selena knew that Patrick had misunderstood her, but she couldn''t figure out what made her feel


    uneasy, so she put aside her doubts for the time being and said, "I don''t need to find the court


    president for now. I''ll wait until hees back."


    The underground virus vine was about to be released, and the capital would continue to be in


    chaos.


    The fact that the head of the court president had released Margot at this time showed that he had been


    paying attention to the capital''s situation.


    Selena suppressed her doubts for the time being. "Uncle, Patrick, I''m going upstairs now."


    After Selena left, Patrick turned to Oscar with some confusion, "When Selena returned home, Matilda


    once sent her a gift on behalf of the head of the court president."


    "Afterwards, the court also helped Selena and released the group of people from the research


    department. I thought Selena knew Mr. Chambers, but now it seems.."


    Selena clearly didn''t know him. And for the court''s several acts of kindness, she was surprised. Oscar


    thought for a moment, "Don''t worry, he has no ill will towards her." That''s enough.


    Patrick also thought so. As for why the court is so abnormal in protecting Selena, when that person


    In the next few days, Selena was shuttling between the research institute and the Capital University


    The power struggle between the Riddle family and the Soo family finally caused turmoil among the


    major families in Capital.


    If the heads of these two families could still maintain surface calm before, after the gambling stone


    Nichs originally wanted to gather those families who had grudges against the Turner family to make


    a move against them, but he was beaten to the punch by Alfie and his own family began to fight first.


    It was said that Nichs was so angry that he almost vomited blood.


    If the Soo family''s internal conflicts were not obvious outside due to their low-key and introverted nature


    over the years, then the power struggle within the Riddle family was clear to everyone.


    Leon took power at the age of twenty and within five years, the Riddle consortium had risen several


    floors under the hands of this young master.


    Almost everyone assumed that he was the heir apparent. But no one expected Maddox to suddenly


    change his mind and support the illegitimate son of the Riddle family''s second room to take the throne!


    When this news came out, the entire upper ss circle in Capital was in an uproar.


    Everyone thought that Maddox and Daphne were probably crazy, otherwise how could they do such


    ridiculous things one after another?


    Not to mention the difference between the illegitimate son and the young master, just the fact that Leon


    is a healthy young man while the second young master has a heart disease, it''s crazy to hand over the


    family power to such a person.


    But the two old men of the Riddle family and the people from the second room of the Riddle family do


    not think so. They openly supported the illegitimate son to take the throne, and they want to pull Leon


    down from the highest position.


    Moreover, the second room of the Riddle family also publicly released the news that Hunter had


    already divorced thete seconddy of the Riddle family.


    Manny is the true second youngdy of the Riddle family, and the Riddle family''s twins have be


    the legitimate young master and youngdy!


    As for the original eldest daughter of the Riddle family, she naturally became the second youngdy!


    When the news reached Selena''s ears, she had just finished lunch.


    Leia said angrily, "Are the people in the Riddle family crazy? They arepletely insane!"


    Selena put down her spoon and wiped her fingers with a handkerchief, "So, Manny is now in charge of


    the second branch of the Riddle family?"


    Leia said, inquiring about the news, "Yes, now the second branch of the Riddle family ispletely run


    by that woman, and the second master of the Riddle family is just a yes-man!"


    "The one who is fighting for power and profit with Mr. Riddle is that woman!"


    Selena gave a smile, "Very good." She had no interest in the power struggle within the Riddle family


    before, but now she had changed her mind.


    She didn''t mind wading into the muddy waters of the Riddle family''s internal affairs.


    After all, what could be happier than seeing someone she despised losepletely in her own hands?


    Selena stood up, "Has Hattie called?"


    "No," Leia shook her head, "Miss Hattie has not said anything other than asionally calling you to


    report her safety since she returned homest time."


    "But Miss Hattie is now with Mr. Riddle, and she has someone protecting her, so there should be no


    danger."


    Leon was having a hard timetely, and Hattie being by his side would surely allow her to learn a lot.


    Selena saw she''s determination and naturally wouldn''t call her back to protect her under her wing.


    "Keep an eye on her."


    "Yes, Madam Selena."


    Selena walked outside.


    Leia followed her, "Madam Selena, where are we going?"


    "The research institute."


    Leia immediately went to drive and took Selena to the research institute.


    The Capital Universityboratory had reached the most critical juncture, and at this time, no mistakes


    could be made, even Selena had not been going there much recently.


    As the newly appointed dean of the research institute, Selena was naturally busy beyond measure...


    Inside the Riddle Building, Leon stared at several pieces of data on hisputer, and after confirming


    something, he turned off theputer.
