Old Mrs. Rathborne is now out of danger. Clearly, it was Yasmine Sterling who saved her, yet Serena is here claiming that Mrs. Rathborne will be in mortal danger in two days. This is simply scaremongering; no one will believe it.
Piper Pace praised Yasmine Sterling again, "Yasmine, take a rest. You did an incredible job saving Old Mrs. Rathborne twice. Don’t worry, I will defend your reputation. Serena, come out with me!"
Everyone came outside, only to be surrounded by a swarm of media reporters, who thrust microphones forward with fervor. "Director Pace, how is the old Mrs. Rathborne doing?"
Facing the cameras, Piper Pace announced directly, "Now, Old Mrs. Rathborne is out of danger. Yasmine used the Golden Needle to seal the acupuncture points, saving her twice!"
Everyone was cheering, and the media’s camera flashes focused again on Yasmine’s beautiful little face. "Yasmine, you are an angel on earth, our goddess; we admire you and love you so much!"
Yasmine basked in the applause and vanity of the moment. Indeed, heaven was helping her, as saving the old lady twice paired with Director Pace’s eyewitness testimony had propelled her to be the most dazzling star among the crowd.
This was her first time using the Golden Needle to seal acupuncture points, and she didn’t expect it to be so successful. She truly was a medical genius!
Thinking of Serena’s doubts earlier and that last scaremongering remark, Yasmine found it laughable.
"I’m a healer; this is what I should do. Serena, you ought to believe me now. If you want to learn the Golden Needle technique, I could teach you myself." Yasmine immediately directed her attention and battle to Serena.
Director Pace, this time Serena was too vile, falsely claiming she was the one who saved Old Mrs. Rathborne. Her character is utterly disgraceful; you must punish her severely. Otherwise, if everyone in the medical field emulates this, this sacred ground for saving lives would turn into a palace of infighting and fame-seeking. Who would bear the responsibility?
Exactly, Director Pace. We aren’t interested in how Serena got into The Concordiat Research Institute, but we ask you to expel her now!
Director Pace, more than 80 million people are watching the live broadcast. The discussion online is explosive, and the entire internet is chanting for Serena to be expelled from The Concordiat Research Institute!
Yasmine’s heart was soaring with joy, truly a bountiful harvest today. It was Serena’s fault for walking right into her trap, inciting public outrage. Official source is NoveI★Fire.net
Now the entire internet is shouting for Serena to be expelled from The Concordiat Research Institute.
"Director Pace, perhaps we let this pass. Serena is my sister after all. Please give her another chance; she will surely reform and choose good." Yasmine pretended to plead for mercy.
Piper Pace’s expression was unpleasant. Since Serena came, The Concordiat Research Institute had to deal with frequent social media buzz, turning a reputable medical institution into a trendy spot.
Now that Serena caused trouble again, even though she was placed here by the principal, Piper Pace felt she could no longer tolerate her.
"Serena, if I don’t punish you this time, how can I calm the public fury? You must pack your things and leave The Concordiat Research Institute now. We can’t accommodate a big shot like you!"
Piper Pace directly issued the order, expelling Serena from The Concordiat Research Institute!
Serena returned to the pharmacy to pack her things. Outside, people came to watch the spectacle, and Twitter exploded. Serena being forced out of The Concordiat Research Institute had become the latest viral topic.
Shania was about to cry, "Serena, how did this happen? Wait, I will talk to Director Pace right now and get you back into the institute."
Serena held Shania back, blinking mysteriously, "Shania, I’ll leave for two days first and will be back very soon!"
"Really, Serena, are you kidding me?"
Shania didn’t believe Serena anymore because she had promised to tackle Yasmine, but instead, she ended up defeated, leaving the institute in disgrace.
"Serena, are you naive? Yasmine’s Golden Needle technique is formidable. Why did you claim you saved her? Now everyone is laughing at you!"
Even Shania didn’t believe that Serena had used the Golden Needle technique to save anyone.
Serena pressed Shania’s shoulder, making her look into her eyes, "Shania, look into my eyes. I am the one who saved her. You must trust me."
Serena hugged her box and left the pharmacy. Before leaving, she winked playfully, "Shania, don’t worship me too much, okay? I’m leaving now, but I’ll be back very soon!"
Outside the pharmacy was buzzing as people came to ’see off’ Serena. Serena walked out honestly and confidently, soon spotting Yasmine ahead.
Yasmine smiled, "Serena, I’m here to see you off."
Serena walked over, "Well, thank you."
"Serena, you shouldn’t have come to the institute nor returned to Bayside. Does this taste of being exposed feel bad?" Yasmine finally stopped pretending, showing arrogance and malice in her eyes.
Serena, holding her box, chuckled softly, "Yasmine, you think you’ve won? Don’t be naive; let me tell you a secret, you’re doomed!"
With that, Serena left.
Yasmine’s hand hanging by her side quickly clenched into a fist. She didn’t expect that after being expelled from The Concordiat Research Institute, Serena would still dare to be so arrogant.
How could she be finished?
She was a genius in the Golden Needle technique!
Serena quickly received a WeChat message from Leah Thorne, "Serena, you’re amazing! A casual word or action from you can ignite trending topics. Those Twitter operators should thank you; you’ve helped them meet their annual KPIs early. Bayside hasn’t been this lively for a long while."
Was Serena really that impressive?
Leah: "Go check the trending list; three out of the top ten trending topics are about you. I’m starting to suspect you paid for them."
Serena didn’t even need to look to know the internet was raging against her. She changed the subject, "Leah, I think I know why Yasmine’s medical skills improved so rapidly; she probably got hold of the medical tome my mom left behind."
Leah: "What are you waiting for, go get it back. The things Auntie left behind shouldn’t be given to those vile people!"
Of course, she’d take it back. She would first find Gregory Sterling, trick him a bit, and he would surely confess everything.
Then Leah’s text came again, "I see Gregory and Yasmine here, Serena, do you want to come over?"
Serena: "Leah, where are you now?"
Leah: "At a hotel, ready for a livestream sale."
Serena was stunned. Leah Thorne was a top-tier star balancing both popularity and skill in the entertainment industry, receiving countless international luxury endorsements, cracking the top five fashion magazines within two years, and soaring in fashion resources and commercial value. Was she really going to livestream sales?
Leah quickly explained with a kindred spirit, "Capital’s forces are too wicked. Justin Xavier, that lunatic, halted all my work. I’m semi-shelved, so I have to find a way to sell goods!"
