Chapter 1356 Fairness "The vote is not over yet." Everyone on the scene was stunned.
Vivian, who had just regained her voice from fear, immediately retorted, "Selena, don't talk nonsense. The vote has long been over!" Selena had a calm expression. "I haven't voted yet." The atmosphere suddenly became stagnant.
Freddie's gloomy expression froze on his face, staring tightly at Selena.
The other members of the institute were also stunned.
Many people did not immediately react to the meaning of Selena's words.
Vivian shouted angrily, "You are only the head of the scientific research department, not a high-level member of the institute.
How can you be qualified to vote?!" Selena lightly said, "I am the vice president of the institute.” One sentence made everyone stunned.
Immediately, many high-level members of the institute finally remembered that Selena did indeed have the position of vice president! It was obtained from the Shaw family when she first entered the institute.
It was just that Selena had been revolving around the scientific research department since entering the institute, and then one thing after another happened, which made the whole institute restless.
So they forgot that she still had this identity.
Although she had no real power, she did indeed have a certificate! After remembering this fact, the expressions of the group of people twisted a bit.

Vivian's complexion became extremely flustered.
She looked at Selena, then turned back to look at the votes on the big screen. Suddenly, she didn't know what she had thought of and angrily said, "Selena, don't even think about deceiving us!" "If you haven't voted, then whose name is the extra vote with your name on it?!" "The handwriting clearly belongs to a woman. It must be the vote you cast for yourself!" Selena glanced at Vivian, with a hint of admittance in her eyes, "Miss Shaw, can't you count?" "There are so many high-level members present, and there are so many votes on the screen. Just count them, and you will know." "And, since | sat here, no one has given me any paper or pen, and | haven't written anyone's name." Hearing Selena's words, Vivian was infuriated.
That vote wasn't written by Selena, so who else could have written it? Vivian stared angrily at the senior executives in the conference room. If it weren't for this sudden extra vote, Freddie would have discovered that Selena didn't vote for herself.
They wouldn't have left such a big loophole! Who did it?! The elegant handwriting was clearly from a woman's hand...
And the female researchers present were all almost of a certain age. Vivian was also sure that they were biased towards the Shaw family and the Poole family.
So who else would secretly help Selena harm their Shaw family? Not only Vivian was looking, but everyone present was also looking.
After scanning the conference room, Vivian's gaze suddenly stopped on Winnie, who was sitting quietly next to Christ.
In the crematorium, Vivian seemed to have figured out something and angrily exclaimed, "Winnie, was it you?!" Winnie met Vivian's questioning gaze but looked away and didn't speak.
It was obvious she had agreed.
That vote was indeed cast by her! Vivian was really angry, and her voice was sharp, "The Research Institute is not just the territory of my Shaw family, but also your Poole family. Why do you have to help the Turner family to harm us?!" "Winnie, if you and Christ's vote hadn't been cast for Selena, the position of the Research Institute's director would have been yours, the Poole family's..." "Why did you do this?" Vivian's words turned everyone's attention to Winnie.
The Poole family faction all looked dark and grim.
They never imagined that not only did the Poole family's young master betray them, but even their young miss had gone over to the other side.
Even Selena was surprised and raised her eyebrows.
Obviously, she didn't expect that the vote would come from Winnie's hand.
Although Christ was ruthless, he shouldn't have threatened Winnie to do such a thing.
If he wanted to threaten someone to help Selena, why not choose one of the many high-level executives of the Poole family present? Under the many questioning gazes, Winnie felt somewhat uncomfortable and avoided giving an explanation.
She just said softly, "It's my freedom to vote for whoever | want, and you have no right to interfere.” Christ glanced at the group of people without saying a word.
Looking at the Poole siblings’ indifferent attitudes, Vivian's face twisted with anger.
Winnie's vote had caused great harm to the Shaw family! Vivian thought of what she had done before. If the position of the dean of the institute really fell into the hands of the Turner family today, she would be the culprit of the entire Shaw family! Vivian finally became afraid. She shook her head and looked at Freddie with a pale face, "Brother..." Freddie listened to her trembling voice but had no energy to comfort her.
Originally, as long as the Shaw family did not agree to open the voting system, they would not have ended up in this situation.
These people would not have had a reason to appear in the institute.
But because of Vivian's stupidity, the Shaw family was forced into this situation.
Once Selena succeeded in taking over...
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFreddie suddenly closed his eyes.
Vivian did not hear any comforting words and became even more afraid. She cried and said, "Brother, what should we do?" Even if Vivian was arrogant, she dared not say that these people's votes would not be cast for Selena.
Selena was Callum's daughter! And who didn't know about Callum's dedication and talent back then?! Their reputation was bad, and these people would definitely support Selena’s takeover! Vivian was so anxious that tears flowed down her face.
Selena glanced at Winnie and then looked away.
She could pretend that Christ's vote had never happened.
But Winnie's vote had helped her.
Selena remembered this favor.
Patrick saw Selena's puzzled expression and whispered, "Maybe it's because of Milana..." And Christ.
Patrick didn't say the rest of the sentence.
He believed that Selena understood.
When Selena heard Patrick mention Milana, she couldn't help but think of the grievances between that woman and Callum.
And the true Selena and Christ...
There was indeed some indescribable fate between the Poole family and the Turner family.
After confirming that Selena had not yet voted, Principal Marshall spoke up, "Since the vote has not yet ended, let's continue.” "That way, we won't take advantage of your institute.” "Your previous votes will also count.” "It's our turn next." "This way, it's fair, right?" Upon hearing Principal Marshall's words, the group of senior officials in the institute not only did not feel happy, but their faces became even paler.
This sentence clearly forced them to a dead end.
