The Department of Defense guards immediately holstered their pistols, gave a solemn salute, and cleared a path for Serena.
Without so much as batting an eye, Serena put the black card away and walked through the gate.
"S-Serena…"
Isabella's beautiful eyes widened, her face a mask of disbelief as she watched Serena walk into the institute unimpeded.
Her breathing suddenly became ragged, and her lips trembled. "How… how could she… how could she possibly have clearance to enter the institute?"
Isabella's first thought was, did the Lancaster family give it to her?
But, even with their immense wealth, the Lancaster family couldn't possibly interfere in the affairs of a national research institute.
Getting in and out of the institute required more than just a card; it also needed facial recognition…
That meant Serena couldn't have stolen someone's card. She herself, truly and without a doubt, had clearance to enter the institute.
But how was that possible?
Serena… a country bumpkin, a bastard child that even the insignificant Wynn family didn't want, how could she?
Ian was also completely dumbfounded, his mouth hanging open as he stared blankly at Serena walking into the institute. He looked at the strange black card in her hand, unable to even begin to guess…
What was this girl's identity?
Just then, Isabella's eyes lit up. She saw the person she had been waiting hours for, hurrying toward them.
Mr. Harrison had graying hair that was a bit thin, and he wore glasses.
Despite his age, he walked with a spring in his step and seemed full of energy.
