Selena felt like she was going to explode with anger.

Her entire body was shaking.

Ugh!

Was it illegal to kill someone?!

For some reason, in her rage, she even began to feel a dull pain coming from her abdomen.

Taking a deep breath to calm herself and suppress the ache, she turned to Keira, frowning deeply. "Ms. Olsen, Miss Martin, what you're saying is just absurd! No wonder Ryan doesn't believe you—I don't either! Stop trying to scam us!"

Keira replied calmly, "There are two minutes left. Let's see who's really scamming who, shall we?"

Selena let out a mocking laugh. "I know why you're here. You're just trying to partner up with the Gill family. But I'm curious—your family and the Hortons are both filthy rich. Is partnering with the Gills really that crucial? Or maybe… you've got some ulterior motive?"

Keira narrowed her eyes. "All my dealings with the Gills are completely aboveboard. Nora Institute doesn't need to work with them for any hidden agenda."

Selena scoffed, "Really? Because from what I've heard, you practically begged Gills to get the deal with them. I mean, come on—Nora Institute is a big name. People all over the world would kill to collaborate with you. But you chose the Gills, offering terms that are suspiciously reasonable. If that's not fishy, I don't know what is."

She turned to Ryan, insisting, "Ryan, they're hiding something for sure! You can't trust them!"
