Reborn as the Sweetheart of a Paranoid Boss

Chapter 614: Heading to the Isle of Cyrin

"Perhaps, it’s because they’ve already moved their base, or maybe they’re deliberately misleading us in the opposite direction..."

Sterling Norwood voiced his suspicion.

After Sterling Norwood finished speaking, Samuel Dalton remained silent for a moment.

"Understood, I will dispatch someone to search Gailo Island afterwards."

Samuel Dalton said in a deep voice.

Previously, it was indeed a bit difficult to locate Gailo Island, plus it wasn’t just an ordinary island.

It would require considerable manpower and resources.

Moreover, they weren’t sure if the Gailo Family was connected to The Godsbane Organization.

To avoid unnecessary losses, they decided to put this matter on hold.

Now, hearing Sterling Norwood’s thoughts prompted Samuel Dalton to make a decision.

"Well then, let’s have a pleasant cooperation."

"Pleasant cooperation."

Before hanging up, Sterling Norwood added, "Mr. Dalton."

"I hope you remember, Selena Kensington is my wife."

His voice was low and hoarse, but it carried a hint of chilliness and warning.

After saying this, he ended the call first.

After hanging up, Samuel Dalton stood in place,

his hand remained holding the phone in the recently used position.

On the day of departure for the Isle of Cyrin,

Selena Kensington was packing her luggage in the dressing room.

She paced back and forth a few times inside but couldn’t decide what to bring.

Suddenly she remembered she was only going for three days, so it wasn’t necessary to be so tedious.

In the end, Selena just took a few outfits, dresses, and some cosmetics.

After finally packing, she was ready to sit down and rest for a moment.

She wasn’t sure if it was because she had been lazy and inactive for the past few days, but even a little movement made her feel slightly sore.

After sitting down, her phone received a message.

Selena opened it to take a look.

[Sloane]: Sister, are you ready to depart?

It was Sloane Hawthorne...

Selena recalled what Hugh Kensington had said to her before, and couldn’t help but laugh.

[Selie Stays Slim]: Just finished packing, you go ahead with your boyfriend, don’t worry about me.

[Sloane]: But you’re still pregnant... I should come with you.

Sloane Hawthorne was a bit concerned and thought it would be better to accompany Selena.

[Selie Stays Slim]: No need, it’s a rare opportunity for you and our cousin, enjoy your time together.

[Selie Stays Slim]: Hope will be with me, and I have acquaintances on the Isle of Cyrin, so don’t worry.

With Selena insisting, Sloane Hawthorne didn’t press further.

She knew that if Sterling Norwood allowed Selena to go to the Isle of Cyrin, he must have prepared well.

She was just unable to stop worrying.

[Sloane]: See you at the film festival, sister.

[Selie Stays Slim]: Okay.

After finishing her conversation with Sloane Hawthorne, Selena put away her phone.

She continued resting for a while until Sterling Norwood walked in.

Seeing Selena sitting on the chair with her luggage beside her, Sterling Norwood raised an eyebrow slightly.

"Tired?"

Sterling Norwood asked.

Selena nodded lightly, "It’s been a while since I exercised, I’m not used to it anymore."

As Sterling Norwood approached, Selena quickly stood up.

She moved in front of a full-length mirror in the dressing room and turned around a few times in front of it.

Then, she said somewhat gloomily, "I’ve gained some weight these days."

"Which makes me too shy to take those sexy dresses..."

If it were the old Selena, those dresses would complement her graceful figure well.

But now, imagining herself in those dresses,

she shuddered instantly.

Forget it, too much for the eyes.

Actually, Selena didn’t gain much weight, but girls usually feel that they’ve gained pounds.

It’s always the illusion that they need to lose weight.

Sterling Norwood walked over and joined Selena in looking into the mirror.

He chuckled, "Isn’t this even better..."

Selena snorted softly, "I knew you would say that."

"Alright, let’s go downstairs."

Sterling Norwood smiled, ruffling Selena’s hair.

Then he grabbed the suitcase with one hand, holding Selena’s waist with the other, and led her downstairs.

For this trip, Sterling Norwood arranged a private plane specifically for Selena’s journey to the Isle of Cyrin.

Once they arrived at the airport, Sterling Norwood started inquiring.

"Did you bring your documents?"

"Don’t wander off over there; someone will always be with you."

"Remember to call me every day."

Sterling Norwood reminded Selena of several things in succession.

Finally, he glanced at Hope Norwood standing behind Selena, "Take good care of the madam."

Hope Norwood nodded respectfully, "This is my duty."

Selena chuckled, looking at him askance, "Alright, I got it."

"You’ve been saying this for the past few days, aren’t you tired of it?"

The words from Selena’s mouth hinted at annoyance, but there was uncontrollable sweetness and amusement in her eyes.

And after all this time, Sterling Norwood had adapted, knowing well that his wife’s contrariness had grown since her pregnancy.

So even if Selena deliberately contradicted him sometimes, Sterling Norwood would still continue.

"Get on the plane now."

After all his reminders, Sterling Norwood reluctantly spoke.

Selena sensed a hint of reluctance in his tone.

She leaned in and hugged him.

"I’ll be back soon."

Selena looked up and said to Sterling Norwood.

"Mm, I know."

Sterling Norwood lowered his head, smiling at her.

His tone held extreme gentleness.

"When are you going to Oakhaven?"

Selena blinked and asked.

"Tomorrow."

"Oh... then remember, don’t get yourself hurt."

"If I come back and can’t find you, I’ll come looking for you, okay?"

Selena tilted her head slightly, saying.

Sterling Norwood was completely smitten by her adorably naive demeanor.

He couldn’t help but raise his hand to pinch her cheek, "I won’t, I promise."

"Mm! If you don’t, I’ll ’domestic violence’ you!"

Selena ’threatened’ fiercely.

Ever since realizing the fun of ’domestic violence,’ Selena had stopped just talking aimlessly.

As long as Sterling Norwood didn’t meet her expectations, she’d use ’domestic violence’ at the drop of a hat.

"Ahem... alright."

Sterling Norwood couldn’t help but cough lightly.

His eyes were filled with endless helplessness and affection.

Selena’s ’domestic violence’ wasn’t really painful.

To Sterling Norwood, it was more of a way for her to act spoiled.

Yet, if Sterling Norwood refused to cooperate sometimes, Selena would actually get cranky.

This was also considered a sweet burden.

"Hurry up, the time is running out."

Hearing this from Sterling Norwood, Selena didn’t continue her teasing.

As she walked towards the plane, she turned and said, "Remember, I haven’t allowed you to get hurt, okay!"

She still remembered the words Sterling Norwood once said.

He said that he wouldn’t allow himself to get hurt without her permission.

Selena would always remember this.
