Chapter 1456 As Long as You Become My Woman

The next morning, Selena got up, washed up, and grabbed a quick bite to eat. Emilio's face looked calm.

"How's your teacher doing?" she asked.

"She can't talk anymore," he replied quietly.

It seemed she had at most a week left.

Selena didn't know how to comfort him, so she just patted his shoulder.

They headed towards the high school on the outer island.

Selena first took Emilio's teacher Ophelia Blake's information to the administration office to register, completed a small test, and then sat in the designated office.

There were only two art teachers at the school, and neither could be absent.

Selena glanced at the class schedule and was surprised to see that, despite Mystic Prison appearing much more backward than the outside world, the students here were well-rounded. They even had piano classes, baking classes, equestrian classes, and more. Although the classes were infrequent, they covered a wide range of subjects.

Was this meant to stimulate every possible talent a person might have?

Some people weren't good at academic subjects like math, science, or languages but had a high aptitude for baking.

The school's curriculum could identify such students, who could then be considered geniuses.

Selena's first reaction to the schedule was surprise, followed by disgust.

The students here seemed to be exploited. If they couldn't master basic knowledge, the school would try to stimulate other talents to prove the student wasn't useless. Any student with talent was worth researching.

Her brow furrowed, and she felt a deep sense of fear. Were most of the graduates from the outer island being used as human test subjects?

If that were the case, it would suggest that BK and the research base are more closely linked than previously thought.

Just as she sat down, the office door was kicked open. It was Lyle from yesterday.

"I heard someone replaced Ophelia's position. Didn't expect it to be you."

His gaze roamed over Selena's body, and he even shut the door behind him.

His cronies outside started jeering.

"Mr. Warner, hurry up. This woman is really beautiful."

"We want a turn too. Never seen such a young and pretty teacher."

Selena raised an eyebrow. Were these the high school students from the outer island?

They were targeting teachers now, and it seemed they weren't planning to use force. Didn't the school care?

Lyle tossed off his jacket and gave Selena a predatory look.

"You know what my family does. The highest building on the outer island is ours. Be my woman, and I'll give you ten thousand dollars right away."

He slowly approached, but when he saw Selena unmoved, he became enraged.

"Bitch!"

He reached to grab Selena's chin, but she caught his wrist, twisted his arm, and pinned him against the desk.

He cursed under his breath, 'Fuck, how is this woman so strong?'

Selena kneed him hard in the groin, causing him to collapse to the floor, screaming in pain.

His cronies outside panicked.

"Mr. Warner, what's wrong?"

"Open the door!"

But the door was locked by Lyle himself, and no one could open it.

Selena glanced at Lyle writhing on the floor and remembered the wounds she saw on some kids last night. Those kids were probably hurt by Lyle's cronies.

Not even sparing five or six-year-old kids—such a person deserved to die.

Lyle's face turned red from the pain, and he shamelessly started calling for help.

The door was kicked open, and his concerned cronies rushed in.
