Reborn as the Sweetheart of a Paranoid Boss

Chapter 602: Accompanying You Through Pregnancy



Chapter 602: Accompanying You Through Pregnancy

Selena Kensington sat helplessly on the living room sofa, watching as the main house slowly got covered with cushions.

She then turned her head to look at Sterling Norwood next to her, who was feeding her fruit.

She stretched out a foot and kicked Sterling, "Aren’t you going to handle your work?"

"Hm?"

Sterling raised his eyebrows slightly.

Then he handed over a piece of cantaloupe.

Selena opened her mouth and bit into it.

Then she heard Sterling’s words.

"Nah, not going, staying with you for the delivery."

"...???"

"Cough, cough, cough, cough..."

Selena was startled by Sterling’s words, almost choking on her cantaloupe.

She swallowed it with difficulty.

A bit of tears came out from the corner of her eyes from the choking.

After swallowing that piece of cantaloupe, she looked at Sterling in disbelief.

"You were...joking, right?!"

Selena’s mind was crashing at the moment.

Considering Sterling’s overly cautious attitude towards her earlier, she excused it as him being a bit nervous encountering such a situation for the first time.

But staying with her for the delivery?!

Was he serious?

She was only one month pregnant; surely Sterling wouldn’t stick around for several months?

Selena couldn’t bear to even think about it.

Sterling looked over, and from the expression in his eyes, Selena knew he was serious.

She felt even more broken.

"No way, you need to immediately, right now, go to work!"

Driven to the brink, Selena finally kicked Sterling.

Sterling recalled how the internet said pregnant women easily got irritable and angry.

Seeing Selena in her current state, Sterling thought, it’s almost accurate.

But his survival instinct told him it was best not to voice these thoughts in front of Selena.

Looking at the increasingly dangerous look in his wife’s eyes, Sterling chose to compromise.

"I was just kidding, don’t be mad."

Sterling coaxed gently.

Only then did Selena’s expression soften slightly.

She hummed lightly, "Smart move!"

Seeing that he had calmed his wife, Sterling snuggled over again.

"How about we go get a check-up at the hospital tomorrow?"

Selena thought about it and indeed needed a full check-up.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t know the current state of the baby in her belly.

So she nodded, "Alright, you handle the arrangements."

Sterling kissed her cheek, "You watch some TV here, I’ll be back later."

"Okay."

Though puzzled by Sterling’s sudden departure, as long as he wasn’t hovering over her, Selena didn’t mind.

So she let Sterling go handle his errands.

Though Sterling left, Selena was still the center of attention.

After watching TV for about ten minutes, a couple of servants approached, asking if she felt uncomfortable or needed anything.

"..."

Finished, she’d truly become a fragile porcelain doll.

When the servants came up again later, Selena spoke up helplessly, "I’m perfectly fine. If I need anything, I’ll naturally call for you, no need to hover deliberately."

After Selena said this, the servants no longer came around every few minutes.

She could finally breathe easier.

Selena thought for a moment and opened Weibo.

She glanced at the trending topics on Weibo.

#Semi-finals of Star of Entertainment!#

#Selena Kensington left the show early due to feeling unwell!#

#Star of Entertainment Vivian Sutton, Sloane Hawthorne!#

Several Weibo posts were about yesterday’s events.

Selena clicked on the topic about herself.

[What happened to Sis yesterday?! What happened?!]

[Heard she had to leave early due to feeling unwell...]

[Ah ah ah, so worried!!!]

[I wanted to hear Director Kensington’s comments on Annelise Mayfield! I think Annelise will be the next rising star!]

[I’m just waiting for any news from Stardust or Sis’ official accounts, it’s killing me...]

Reading the comments from netizens, Selena thought for a moment and decided to edit and post an update with her own Weibo account.

Selena Kensington V: Thank you all for your concern, I’m feeling much better now. Apologies for the inconvenience during the recording @Star of Entertainment Official Weibo V

Shortly after Selena posted this Weibo update, fans who had been stalking her account flooded the comments section.

[Sis finally made an appearance ahhh!]

[Glad to know Sis is okay!]

[Has Sis been overwhelmed lately? Make sure to rest well!]

The comments were mostly warm and supportive messages from Selena’s fans.

After reading for a while, she couldn’t suppress the smile on her lips.

Soon after the Weibo post, Hugh Kensington called.

"Sis, are you really okay?"

Hugh’s voice came through, full of worry.

Selena chuckled, "I’m fine, but you might have a bit of an issue."

"Huh?"

Hugh’s puzzled voice came through, "What issue could I have?"

Selena laughed and said, "Nothing much, just that you’re going to be an uncle soon."

"......"

"??!!!"

After a few seconds of silence, Hugh’s mind was bombarded with questions and exclamations.

"Sis?? Are you serious?! You’re pregnant?? How long?"

"Did yesterday’s incident have anything to do with the pregnancy?? Are you uncomfortable now..."

Hugh went on and on with a barrage of questions.

Listening to Hugh’s voice on the other end, Selena remembered when she told Hugh about her marriage news, he was just like that.

Babbling like a nagging mom.

Selena patiently waited for Hugh to finish before speaking, "Calm down, I’m alright."

"About a month, but specifics will have to wait for tomorrow’s hospital check-up."

Hugh took several minutes to digest this news.

After hearing Selena’s words, he paused for a moment, "Alright, take care of the examination later."

"But Sis, if you’re pregnant, can you still go to the Corinthia Film Festival?"

Selena raised an eyebrow slightly, "Why not, I’m not exactly showing a big belly right now."

Hugh’s voice sounded a bit helpless, "Just now, I received an invitation from the Corinthia Film Festival. You and Sloane were both invited."

Selena’s eyes lit up.

Sloane Hawthorne being invited, even if it was a nomination.

It was still much better.

The Corinthia Film Festival was highly prestigious.

Her starting point was already way ahead of others.

"Then I’ll go with Sloane at that time."

"But given your condition, would Bro-In-Law be okay with you going?"

Hugh continued.

"..."

Selena was stumped by Hugh’s question.

She hadn’t really thought about it.

After all, she was only a month into her pregnancy, with no signs showing.

But just this, Sterling and the staff were already extremely anxious.

So Selena was unsure if she would get Sterling’s agreement to attend the Corinthia Film Festival.

But the Corinthia Film Festival was extremely important to her.
