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?"

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.
