Chapter 473: Chapter 473: Taking the Assessment?
"Shelly, don’t be rude. This is Miss July Quinn!"
Elder Cole was quite troubled seeing Shelly Cole clinging directly onto July Quinn.
His granddaughter was usually well-behaved and avoided causing trouble.
Her only flaw was being a beauty fanatic; she couldn’t resist wanting to latch onto good-looking people.
If it were anyone else, it wouldn’t matter, but the person in question was July Quinn...
She was someone even he, Kevin Cole, had to address with respect. How could he allow Shelly to act so unruly in front of her?
"Elder Cole, it’s fine. I actually like her personality quite a lot."
July Quinn turned around to formally greet Shelly Cole, "Hello, I’m July Quinn. From now on, I’ll be your cousin."
"Hello, hello, fairy cousin. I’m Shelly Cole, nicknamed Snowball because I’m too chubby. You’re so pretty, even more beautiful than our school’s belle and the actress Cherry Locke. From now on, I’ll just focus on you instead of others."
As she spoke, Shelly Cole affectionately took July Quinn’s hand.
Just as Elder Cole intended to scold Shelly for her lack of etiquette, July Quinn proactively led Shelly away.
On the way to school, Shelly Cole told July Quinn plenty about school matters, including how the current school belle possessed both beauty and talent, securing a spot at the Keaton Biological Laboratory even before graduation.
Shelly wanted to talk more with the fairy cousin to strengthen their connection.
However, the fairy cousin seemed uninterested in many things until Shelly mentioned the school belle.
But what intrigued the fairy cousin wasn’t the belle herself, but the Keaton Biological Laboratory that had accepted her.
"Keaton Biological Laboratory? This Keaton you’re talking about, does it have someone named Kyle Keaton?"
July Quinn recalled there weren’t many people with the surname Keaton in the country.
Especially since Kyle Keaton had a highly skilled team of the Vanguard Corps, his status and power in Esteria should not be underestimated.
Could this Keaton Biological Laboratory be his?
"Kyle Keaton? That I’m not sure, all I know is everyone refers to the big boss of the Keaton Biological Laboratory as Lord Keaton."
Shelly Cole continued, "This Lord Keaton not only owns the country’s largest biological laboratory but is also the Family Head of the Keaton Family in Esteria, controlling three-fourths of the country’s wealth and having a private Vanguard Corps. However, his whereabouts are very secretive, and he rarely appears in social venues, so I don’t know what he looks like or what his name is."
"July, if you want to find out his name, my grandpa might know. We can ask him when we get back."
But July Quinn declined her suggestion.
"No need."
Because she had already confirmed it was Kyle Keaton.
Having gone through a life-and-death experience, the person July Quinn most wanted to see now was him.
She initially thought that once she arrived in Esteria, she could easily investigate his whereabouts and meet him.
However, upon reaching Esteria, July Quinn realized finding this man’s traces was more challenging than she anticipated.
So she planned to deal with the Hale Family people while continuing to search for him.
Yet, Shelly Cole unexpectedly revealed information about Kyle Keaton.
Keaton Biological Laboratory?
Looks like, she must get recruited as well.
"Do you know how your school belle got into the biological laboratory?"
"I heard she participated in Keaton’s assessment. This assessment is held once every year, and it’s likely happening in these two weeks. However, Keaton usually only recruits the top scorer."
So each year, many students take part in Keaton’s assessment, but very few are accepted.
