Chapter 81 She’s gone, what else do you want!
After these words were spoken, everyone fell silent.
This wasn't asking them to take her to see Ashley; it was clearly asking them whether they wanted to die now or later.
Ashley is stubborn and will never look back on what he has decided. He is the only one who has the authority to Lab 27 and anyone who wants to enter needs his permission.
This was a privilege he had specifically requested from His Majesty to prevent Scarlett from visiting again.
An hour ago.
When the dean learned that Scarlett was coming, he tentatively asked Ashley whether to open the laboratory access.
Ashley said nothing and added three combination locks to the laboratory.
The answer is obvious.
Now, everything in the 403 Research Institute, except for Laboratory No. 27, is finished!
Seeing that no one reacted, Scarlett simply lowered her head. She hummed, a sharp look flashing through the corners of her narrow eyes. "Why aren't you talking? Is this a difficult matter? Is it that difficult for you to see your beastly husband?"
In the last sentence, Scarlett lowered her voice and raised her tone, showing the imperial princess's oppressive aura without anger to the fullest.
Several people suddenly felt a dark cloud pressing down on their heads and dared not look up.
"Your Highness, the project Ashley is currently researching is extremely important, and the process is incredibly complex. If we stop, all the steps will have to start over again."
Dean Hill took a deep breath and explained, "Your Highness, please forgive me. He really can't leave and can't enter the laboratory."
"Oh, I see."
Scarlett nodded, as if she understood. She paused for a second and turned to leave, but halfway through, she turned back and looked at Hill, smiling and saying, "Really?"
Shire, sweating profusely, repeated what he had just said.
"Your Highness, please forgive me."
"Okay, that's gone. I'll look somewhere else."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, and a hint of color finally appeared on their pale faces.
I was just about to be thankful that His Highness was being reasonable today, unlike before.
He raised his eyes and glanced at her out of the corner of his eye.
Your Highness, she has entered the senior archives room!
The research archives of the institute for nearly a hundred years are stored there. They are top secret and even the dean is not qualified to enter. The simultaneous authorization of the Imperial Court, the Privy Council and the Cabinet is required to access them.
The hearts of the few people who had just let go of their worries were lifted again. They chased after her and stood in front of Scarlett.
"Your Highness."
"Permission."
Scarlett looked at them and smiled sweetly. The two light words were like ghosts demanding their lives, strangling their throats and making them unable to breathe for a long time.
"Your Highness..." Hill tried to explain.
Scarlett interrupted: "What? This one doesn't work either?"
Vanessa said, "Your Highness, this is the archives room. You need three-party authorization to enter. We don't have permission."
Scarlett raised her eyebrows and said reasonably, "Okay, I won't go in."
He changed the subject, his tone thick with threats, "You have rejected me twice. If you reject me again, don't blame me for being ruthless."
Hill and Vanessa looked at each other and were surprised to find that the purpose of His Highness's visit was not simple and it did not seem that he was here for Ashley.
Before her brows relaxed, Scarlett's next words came through.
"I need to see Christine."
…
…
Research Institute.
lounge.
Scarlett brought a cup of black tea and drank it slowly. After finishing it, she glanced at Susanna beside her and asked, "Hasn't she come yet?"
Susanna is Hill's assistant.
Just now, Scarlett asked to meet Christine, and Hill agreed without thinking.
Scarlett was arranged to rest in the lounge for a while, and Susanna was sent to serve her personally.
He said he would bring Christine over in a moment.
Scarlett waited for nearly half an hour, but not only did she not see Christine, but everyone else disappeared too.
She and Susanna were the only ones left in the lounge.
Susanna was a little panicked. She lowered her eyes to suppress her inner anxiety. "Your Highness, Christine is a researcher. She needs to go through three rounds of review before entering or leaving the laboratory. It will take a while. Please, Your Highness, please be patient."
Another twenty minutes passed.
Scarlett's patience is running out.
Seeing Susanna raise the teapot to add water for her, she reached out and covered the teacup with her hand, "No need."
"Your Highness..." Susanna looked at her.
She raised her eyebrows and said sternly, "Is this Christine some big shot? How dare she keep me waiting for so long? Is it that you can't invite her? Or is she unwilling to come?"
Scarlett stood up and narrowed her eyes. "Or do I need to go and invite them myself?"
Susanna was so frightened that her scalp was numb and she dared not breathe. "Your Highness, please forgive me. Christine is not feeling well. I did not mean to neglect you. Please wait a little longer."
"Wait a little longer?"
Scarlett sneered, her eyes fell on the teacup, and she touched it hard, causing the teacup to fall to the ground and break into pieces.
Scarlett has no real power and her status is not as high as Sophia's. She had long expected this kind of treatment where she would be submissive on the surface but treated with contempt behind her back.
But she won't just take it.
Then go crazy and no one will have an easy time.
"Forgive me, you idiot! If you don't call Christine over here, I'll destroy your entire research institute!"
After smashing the teacup, Scarlett kicked the stool, then smashed the chair. After smashing the chair, she picked up the teapot and smashed it hard. There was water in the teapot, and the scalding hot water splashed out and scalded Susanna's back of the hand.
She hissed, ignoring the pain, and immediately knelt on the ground, kowtowed in fear, "Your Highness, please calm down."
At the same time, a loud shout was heard at the door.
"Scarlett! What are you doing here again?"
Ashley stood at the door of the lounge, still wearing his white lab coat. His golden hair was slightly curly, and his fair skin was slightly red due to anger. He wore a pair of rimless glasses on his high nose.
The reflective lenses cast a layer of elegant light on his bright, slightly round eyes, and his slightly protruding brow bones seemed much softer, making him look cool, self-possessed and yet gentle.
The face is good, but the words sound harsh.
Scarlett ignored him and continued to go crazy, smashing everything she saw.
Ashley saw Scarlett getting even crazier, and frowned. He stepped forward and grabbed her hand, "Scarlett, what do you want to do? I told you not to come to the institute!"
Scarlett glanced at him in her busy schedule, "I am the king and you are the subject. Why should I listen to you? Also, why do you care about me? I'm not here to see you. Get out of here!"
A trace of surprise flashed across Ashley's face.
Isn't Scarlett here to see him?
The strength in his hand loosened and he was pushed away by Scarlett.
At this time, Susanna raised her head and said nervously: "Ashley, His Highness is here to look for Kristen."
Ashley's expression suddenly tensed when he heard the word "Kristen".
He knew that Scarlett was still doing this for this matter.
How could she let him go so easily!
He grabbed Scarlett's hand for the second time and gritted his teeth, "Scarlett, have you had enough of this?"
After hearing this, Scarlett wanted to slap him in the face.
Did I quarrel with you?
Her hands were clamped, but her feet were fine. She kicked a nearby chair to express her anger, glaring and shouting, "No! Not only has this trouble not been enough, I am also going to drag Christine out and bring her to justice! She dared to covet my beastly husband! I will sentence her to death!"
Hearing this.
Ashley's pupils suddenly shrank, and the hand holding her wrist suddenly tightened, and the neatly trimmed round nails almost pinched into the fair skin.
He stared at Scarlett for a moment, his gaze growing sharper and sharper with anger. He gritted his teeth and said, "She's gone. What else do you want?"
