Mystery Bride's Revenge (Selina)

Chapter 82

Derrick couldn't help but take a few more glances at Selina. Gone from his eyes were the earlier impatience and disdain. The tone of her words was not arrogant but stemmed from a deep confidence in her abilities, the kind necessary to boldly claim the top spot. Derrick had encountered many such geniuses. It was easy to tell if it was an act.

With those words, Derrick left, muttering under his breath, "Young people these days are so brash. Only twenty-one and already so bold and presumptuous. What was Mr. Brady thinking about sending me someone like this...

Without hesitation, Selina took on the case.

everyone was fiercely competing for a spot in the big league, and with time against them, they couldn't afford distractions. And while Selina carried herself with an air of confidence that made it hard to disregard her presence, some had already tried digging into her background, but
