Reborn as the Sweetheart of a Paranoid Boss

Chapter 608: When Your Wife Gets Hooked on Romance Novels

Selena Kensington hadn’t sent her message for long before Vivian Sutton replied.

[Vivian Stays Rich]: Whoa! You’re out of your hiatus?!

"...?"

What is Vivian Sutton talking about?

Did she really think she was under house arrest?

[Selie Stays Slim]: Speak normally.

[Vivian Stays Rich]: Oh, isn’t it just that Hugh said you were resting for your pregnancy, and you haven’t been around, so I dared not bother you with these things.

This reason made Selena Kensington laugh and cry.

What exactly did Hugh Kensington say to them that caused them not to look for her for more than a week?

[Selie Stays Slim]: I’m fine, so fine that it’s getting a bit boring.

[Vivian Stays Rich]: You’re blessed and don’t even know it!

[Vivian Stays Rich]: But seriously, I never expected you to get pregnant; you scared me so much that day, you know...

Then, Vivian Sutton went on to tell her about everything that happened after the incident, including how Hugh Kensington helped Stardust’s public relations department control online reviews and guide discussions...

And about the finals of "Star of Entertainment".

Selena Kensington was just watching Vivian Sutton continuously typing...

By the time Vivian Sutton finished talking about these past few days, more than ten minutes had passed.

[Vivian Stays Rich]: Finally done, I’m exhausted!

[Selie Stays Slim]: I finally finished reading it too. What are your plans next?

Vivian Sutton now has plenty of free time, and she just finished participating in the variety show "Star of Entertainment", which gained a lot of attention.

[Vivian Stays Rich]: I’ll listen to my agent’s arrangement; she’s currently picking out scripts for me, so I’ll probably be filming soon!

[Selie Stays Slim]: Alright, you just focus on filming, but don’t keep quiet if you face any mistreatment in the crew.

[Vivian Stays Rich]: Oh wow, you and Hugh really are siblings; you both say similar things.

Selena Kensington chuckled.

Both she and Hugh Kensington are protective.

Vivian Sutton, originally the eldest daughter of The Sutton Family, joined the entertainment industry simply to pursue her dreams.

And behind her, she has a strong enough backing to support her.

So there’s no need for her to let herself be wronged.

[Vivian Stays Rich]: Oh, speaking of which, I’m about to become a godmother soon...

[Vivian Stays Rich]: Ahhh, I’m so excited for the little bun to be born!

Seeing Vivian Sutton so excited, Selena Kensington couldn’t help but be affected by her.

The corners of her mouth lifted slightly.

[Selie Stays Slim]: Unfortunately, this pregnancy rest is a bit dull.

[Vivian Stays Rich]: What’s so hard about that? Watch some dramas? I can recommend hundreds without repeats!

[Selie Stays Slim]: No, Sterling doesn’t let me watch TV for too long.

[Vivian Stays Rich]: ...Well, in that case, why not read books?

Upon seeing Vivian Sutton’s latest message, Selena Kensington raised an eyebrow slightly.

Reading books is indeed a good idea.

That way, Sterling Norwood wouldn’t have to worry about the impact of phones and TV on her.

[Vivian Stays Rich]: Want to read the novels I read before?

But then...

Upon seeing Vivian Sutton’s subsequent message, Selena Kensington’s lips twitched slightly.

Those novels that Vivian Sutton read before?

Those romance novels like "Sexy Wife Flames", "Buy a Baby, Get One Free", "Domineering CEO Falls for Me"?

Selena Kensington fell silent immediately.

[Vivian Stays Rich]: Hey, don’t knock it till you try it; I’ll send you a few over, and you’ll find them truly alluring!

[Selie Stays Slim]: Alright, I’ll wait for the allure!

Vivian Sutton acted promptly, and after dinner, Selena Kensington saw the household servant bring in several books from outside.

"Madam, these are the books sent by Miss Sutton."

As soon as the servant brought them in, Selena Kensington saw the striking covers.

"...Got it."

Selena Kensington smiled as she took the books and looked at the covers.

Meanwhile, Sterling Norwood, who had walked out of the dining room, noticed the books clutched in Selena Kensington’s arms and fell into strange silence.

"Who gave these to you?"

Sterling Norwood stepped closer.

"Hmm?"

Selena Kensington turned around with a smile.

"Vivian said these were to keep me entertained."

After saying this, Selena Kensington picked up a book and waved it.

Showing the cover to Sterling Norwood.

"How about it? Is the cover similar to the one you read?"

Selena Kensington asked playfully, her eyes glinting with amusement.

"..."

Sterling Norwood’s lips twitched slightly.

Looks like his wife hasn’t forgotten about the time he read such books.

To avoid Selena Kensington talking further, Sterling Norwood quickly walked over, "Let’s go, time to go upstairs."

"Hahaha..."

Selena Kensington laughed, following Sterling Norwood upstairs.

*

Once Sterling Norwood went to shower, Selena Kensington sat by the bed, picking up a book to read.

"..."

At first, reading didn’t evoke much feeling, but soon she was drawn in.

"Whoa! Scumbag!"

"Ahhh, the green tea girl side character!!!"

"Trashy male lead, punish him!!"

As Selena Kensington read, she kept muttering to herself.

To summarize: Honestly, these novels are quite enjoyable.

Truly alluring!

As Selena Kensington read further, she became engrossed.

When Sterling Norwood came out of the shower, he could still hear her muttering.

"Ahh, female lead, don’t forgive him!!"

"Ugh, serves him right!"

"..."

Sterling Norwood glanced at Selena Kensington, who was deeply engrossed in the novels, her eyes sparkling brightly.

The words she spoke were intense and passionate.

Very lively and vivid.

He walked over, smiling as he said, "Time for bed."

Selena Kensington made a sound of dissatisfaction.

Reluctantly, she didn’t want to put down the book in her hand.

"Let me read a bit more... I’m in the exciting part where the female lead fights back against the male lead."

Selena Kensington said hopefully, looking at Sterling Norwood, as if pleading and pouting.

Sterling Norwood’s brow furrowed slightly in helplessness, "You can read more tomorrow; there’s plenty of time."

Listening to Sterling Norwood’s non-negotiable tone, Selena Kensington pouted.

"Hmm... okay then."

She thought for a bit but obediently put the book aside.

"Good."

Sterling Norwood took the book from Selena Kensington, then lay down next to her.

He carefully pulled Selena Kensington into his arms, making sure not to press against her belly.

"Sleep now."

Sterling Norwood gently kissed her forehead, his voice soft and soothing, almost hypnotic.

Selena Kensington lay in his embrace, yet sleep eluded her.

"Hey, do you think the female lead will forgive the male lead later..."

Selena Kensington wondered, unable to hold back her question.

If she didn’t say it, she’d feel uncomfortable keeping it in.

"..."

Sterling Norwood felt that he wouldn’t want to see these novels for a while.

In the end, under Selena Kensington’s relentless questioning, Sterling Norwood reluctantly provided an answer.

Though Selena Kensington was somewhat dissatisfied with Sterling Norwood’s perfunctory response, she refrained from causing more mischief.

She nestled in Sterling Norwood’s embrace and gradually drifted off to sleep.
