Chapter 1630: I can't compare to you, you're more likable.
As soon as Winnie spoke, the entire room fell silent. Selena raised an eyebrow and looked over at her.
She noticed that although some of the wealthy young ladies in attendance were surprised, they weren't
particularly shocked.
Alisha stood up immediately after and smiled warmly. "Miss Lillian may not know this, but when it
comes to treasures, while the capital may not be able to compete with Central City in terms of
technology or military might, we still have confidence in our own treasures and are willing to go head-
to-head with Central City."
"Compared to what my the capital has hidden away," Alisha's gaze swept over those three boxes
before continuing on. "These three trinkets Miss Lillian has brought cannot compare; they can only
serve as icing on the cake."
Originally, Central City could have exchanged their technological patents for these items. But Lab 717
had blocked that path entirely - anything that Central City Research Institute could produce would
undoubtedly be something Lab 717 could also produce.
Bianca couldn't believe what she was seeing from all these wealthy young ladies from the capital and
sneered arrogantly without bothering to conceal it: "Are you all trying... to compete with us for
treasure?!"
She seemed like she had heard a particularly funny joke and even laughed out loud: "It's not that I look
down on the capital; I just want everyone here to understand that these three items brought by Central
City cannot be bought with money nor compared with ordinary treasures! My advice is for you all to
take them obediently then release Mr. Hall."
She looked at everyone present magnanimously before finally turning her gaze towards Selena
wearing an expression suggesting gratitude was expected of her: "Miss Turner should understand the
gap between the capital and Central City!"
"Rebelling pointlessly is a waste of time as well as losing face - why bother?" Bianca giggled
sarcastically while subtly mocking them.
"Do you really want many young ladies from the capital humiliated because of you? Miss Turner
wouldn't want such a scene either?"
"Central City is already giving Miss Turner face by exchanging these three items for Mr. Hall - don't
push your luck!"
Selena glanced at Bianca disdainfully before speaking up again.
Bianca's gaze met Selena's, and she felt a sudden chill in her heart. When she looked again, Selena
had already shifted her eyes away.
She looked at Lillian and said, "One Beatrice wasn't enough, now there's another... Whose person did
they lose?"
Lillian didn't seem to catch Selena's sarcasm. She smiled leisurely at the angry young ladies present
and said, "You know I'm not as likable as you are."
Although she spoke like this, Lillian was not surprised by the situation where the wealthy young ladies
of the capital were willing to stand up for Selena.
With her beauty, nobility and talent bestowed upon her by Her Majesty the Empress Dowager herself, it
was only natural that men would be attracted to such a girl.
If it weren't for Stanley keeping a close eye on things all these years and preventing any talented young
men who sought an audience with Her Majesty from being sent all the way from Central City to the
Mediterranean Sea... NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.
Lillian knew that when it came to this point, she couldn't compare with Selena.
Without saying anything unnecessary, Bianca instantly understood that Lillian had no intention of
stopping her.
Feeling even more arrogant than before now that she had been given free rein by Lillian's silence on
the matter, Bianca turned towards Selena and said, "Miss Turner, in front of absolute strength, you can
talk all you want but it won't do any good."
"If you have something precious then bring it out so we can fight over it. If not then shut your mouth
quietly, and release Mr. Hall!"
She sneered,"It is our honor in Central City to make this deal with you. Don't act shamelessly!"
