Chapter 895

But no matter how powerful and capable Serena was.

In their eyes.

Serena was still their precious darling who needed care and protection.

They still had to deal with the Doyle family as soon as possible.

They couldn’t let Serena be exposed to even the slightest bit of danger.

Old Mr. Lancaster looked at Serena. “Alright, it’s getting late. As long as Serena didn’t get the short end of the stick tonight, that’s what matters. You’ve been up all night, go upstairs and rest p>

Serena nodded. “You too, Grandpa. Although your foot has mostly recovered, you shouldn’t stay up late p>

She had just turned to head upstairs.

Suddenly, Alfred the butler rushed in, looking frantic. “Sir, Mr. Lancaster, something’s wrong! A huge crowd is outside p>

Edward Lancaster immediately stood up. “Who is it? Did the Doyle family come looking for trouble p>

It was already past one in the morning.

Was the Doyle family so furious that they tracked down Serena and stormed the Lancaster estate?

“N-no Alfred panted. “It’s Mr. Harrison! The national treasure from Marington College, the head of the national core research project, Mr. Harrison is here p>

“And there are several others, those senior academicians you always see on the evening news. They were in such a frantic rush, they stormed in before the cars even came to a complete stop p>

“I even saw one of the academicians lose a shoe while running p>

The Lancaster family froze.

Mr. Harrison?

And those top-tier academicians?

In the past, Isabella Lancaster had constantly talked about wanting to apply for Mr. Harrison’s postgraduate program, chattering about it endlessly at home.

They had a decent understanding of just how prestigious these professors and academicians were.

Those senior academicians were usually incredibly arrogant and aloof. Why would they rush to the Lancaster estate in the middle of the night?

Although they knew Serena currently worked at Mr. Harrison’s institute.

Usually, any work-related matters were handled with a single phone call from Mr. Harrison. Why would he show up at their door at this ungodly hour?

“Oh no,” Julian Lancaster suddenly realized something. “Could it be about the Astral Titanium? Did Mr Harrison find out Serena won it for just two dollars? That’s a highly restricted resource. Is the government coming to hold us accountable p>

“It shouldn’t be that serious. Doesn’t Serena work at his institute?” Old Mr. Lancaster frowned. “Invite them in

first whatever happens, l’ik behere

to shoulder it p>

Serena was speechless.

Those old men.

Not sleeping in the middle of the night and rushing to the Lancaster house in a panic?

Were they afraid people didn’t know Serena Lancaster was the one who won the Astral Titanium?

As they were speaking, several white-haired men burst through the door, moving with frantic energy.

Leading the pack was Mr. Harrison.

The men following him were all elite academicians usually only seen on science and tech channels.

Normally, it was impossible to even request a meeting with these people.

And now, they had gathered at the Lancaster estate in the dead of night?

Edward hurried forward to greet them. “Mr. Harrison, gentlemen, what brings you here so late p>

Mr. Harrison waved him off dismissively. “Mr. Lancaster, we can do the pleasantries later. I apologize p>

With that, he bypassed Edward and rushed straight toward Serena. “Oh, thank God, you’re finally back p>

Mr. Harrison completely abandoned

his demeanor of a respected

academic titan, practically howling as he grabbed Serena’s arm. “I

asked you to help secure the Astral Titanium, but why did you have to cause such a massive scene p>

The Lancaster family exchanged confused glances.

This didn’t fit the script.

Why was Mr. Harrison acting like this toward their Serena?

Serena already had one foot on the stairs.
