Reborn as the Sweetheart of a Paranoid Boss

Chapter 610: By Then I’d Already Be the Mother of Two Kids

Sterling Norwood shook his head slightly, "No."

"According to the information from below, they seem to just want to keep the Jennings family locked up."

Selena Kensington finally let out a slight sigh of relief.

"Then, what should we do now?"

Sterling’s eyes slightly darkened, "I need to go personally."

Since impostors have appeared, he must go himself.

Otherwise, relying solely on the Norwood Family’s Hidden Guard, even if they can rescue the Jennings family, the losses would surely be significant.

"But..."

Selena felt a little worried.

Those impostors, since they have Fell Bloodline, that means those people might be like Sterling Norwood.

If it’s just one impostor, it’s fine, but there are five of them...

Selena knew Sterling was strong, but facing such a situation, she couldn’t help but worry.

Sterling chuckled softly.

He lowered his head slightly, facing Selena.

"Before you allow it, I won’t let myself get hurt."

The man’s words were gentle and deep, yet made Selena feel the sincerity and seriousness behind them.

Selena blinked.

Just as she was about to speak, Sterling furrowed his brows slightly, "It’s just..."

"I’m not comfortable leaving you alone."

There’s no problem with Sterling going, but he’s uneasy about Selena.

Bringing Selena is impossible, in case that organization tries to capture her to threaten Sterling.

Such a situation is something Sterling would not want to see.

Selena’s lips twitched slightly.

The sweetness and emotion just emerged suddenly turned into helplessness.

These days, she was nearly being pampered into a giant baby by Sterling.

Although she knew Sterling cared for her and wanted the best for her, his excessive behavior left Selena somewhat helpless, and sometimes even a bit irritable.

"Why don’t you go find Timothy and the others, and I’ll go to the Corinthia Film Festival, how’s that?"

Selena brought up the Corinthia Film Festival once again.

"You’ve seen these past few days, I really haven’t had any adverse reactions, I haven’t even felt what morning sickness is."

"I’ll just go for three days, if you’re really worried, I’ll report to you regularly, how about that?"

In order to persuade Sterling to let her go to the Corinthia Film Festival, Selena was exhausting all her means.

Appealing to emotions, reasoning it out.

Sterling was still frowning.

Though he didn’t relent, he didn’t look as gloomy as last time.

Thinking it over, Sterling spoke, "You’re not suitable for long trips right now..."

Selena rolled her eyes slightly, "Come on, as if I don’t know."

"You can still fly after being pregnant for a month."

These days, Sterling always found various reasons to stop Selena’s activities.

All in the name of taking good care of her as a pregnant woman.

At first, Selena actively cooperated, even without complaining about the bland diet.

But later, Selena noticed something was amiss.

To prevent Sterling from giving her reasons not to do this or that again.

Selena specifically went to study up on pregnancy knowledge.

"..."

Sterling was taken aback by Selena’s words.

"Do you really want to go?"

Upon hearing this, Selena felt hopeful and quickly nodded, "Yes, yes, yes!"

"The Corinthia Film Festival was my dream when I was in college."

"If I miss this one, wouldn’t I have to wait three more years?!"

"By then I’ll already be a mom of two kids... No way, no way!!!"

Selena thought that after three years, she’d have two children already.

Even though by then she’d still only be twenty-five, she couldn’t help feeling awkward.

And by then, whether she could produce works like "Butterfly Flame" was also uncertain...

So this Corinthia Film Festival was a very precious opportunity.

Selena didn’t want to miss it.

"Ah, ah, ah, ah, no way! I must go this time!"

Sterling looked at Selena helplessly as she was freaking out with her self-talk.

"What are you imagining?"

Seeing Selena’s expression change from initial blankness to eventual frenzy and resistance.

Sterling found it hard to imagine how much Selena thought in such a short time.

After all, since her pregnancy, her temper had grown, and so had her imagination.

Especially after reading those novels sent by Vivian Sutton, she’d occasionally imagine a whole melodramatic scene.

This was also one of the reasons Sterling had to keep accompanying her.

Once, Sterling came home late, and Selena’s tone was very resentful.

She even imagined scenes of the wife being pregnant while the husband indulged outside.

This left Sterling making several promises afterwards.

He then held her, coaxing her for a long time before dispelling this notion.

So, a large part of why Sterling was so anxious about Selena was because of Selena herself.

But Selena didn’t know this.

And Sterling wouldn’t say these things in front of her.

Selena dared not continue thinking, quickly looked up, "Oh, oh, oh, hubby, I must go this time!"

If reasoning fails, then use emotional appeal.

First play the pity card.

Selena said pitifully to Sterling.

"Besides, the Isle of Cyrin is under the Colombo Family’s territory, you yourself said that the security there is excellent..."

Hearing Selena say this, Sterling felt a bit troubled.

Indeed, the Isle of Cyrin is safe.

The Colombo Family is the most powerful and ancient family outside The Southern Domain.

If they couldn’t even maintain the stability of their own homeland, they wouldn’t deserve to be the most powerful family outside The Southern Domain.

But...

Sterling was reminded that the young master of the Colombo Family had different thoughts about his wife.

And his wife couldn’t possibly treat him as a stranger.

After all, Samuel Dalton was as important in her heart as Hugh Kensington.

Thinking of these things made his heart feel pierced.

Dense and painful.

But these dark thoughts in his heart completely retreated when facing Selena’s dreams and thoughts.

He respected her wishes and choices.

And would even make concessions for her career and dreams.

Sterling finally relented, "Okay..."

Upon hearing Sterling relent, Selena’s eyes lit up.

Just as she was about to pounce over and shower Sterling with kisses, she heard what Sterling said next.

"Let Hope follow you. Don’t run around, come back immediately after the film festival, okay."

Selena blinked, then continued with the action she hadn’t completed earlier.

She pounced into Sterling’s arms.

Directly pressing him down onto the sofa, showering him with kisses.

"Yes, yes, yes, I definitely won’t run around!"

"Hubby, kiss, kiss, kiss!"

Selena’s voice seemed infused with honey, incredibly sweet.

With Sterling’s agreement, Selena’s frustration of the past few days dissipated quite a bit.

Her face showed a bright smile.

She poured out sweet words to Sterling as if emotional expressions were limitless.

Sterling let Selena mess around on his face, hearing her words, his mouth curved helplessly.
