Reborn as the Sweetheart of a Paranoid Boss

Chapter 627: Touched or Not

Samuel Dalton put aside his inner conjectures.

He nodded slightly, "I know a bit."

Selena Kensington didn’t intend to hide anything from Samuel Dalton.

She trusted Samuel Dalton enough.

"That car accident back in the day was caused by people from this organization."

Selena Kensington said.

Samuel Dalton’s eyes suddenly became solemn.

He instinctively released a murderous aura.

Selena Kensington glanced at him.

Only then did Samuel Dalton restrain his murderous aura and continued to listen to Selena’s words.

"Later, I discovered that my grandparents were connected to this organization."

"They were taken to participate in experiments by those people, initially unaware."

"By the time they noticed, it was too late, and they tried to escape the organization, attracting assassins."

"They couldn’t evade those people’s assassination."

"But they left behind a secret."

Selena Kensington stated calmly.

After finishing the last sentence, she pointed at the map and said, "What’s marked on this map is the location of their hidden research notes."

"Without these notes, the Godsbane Organization’s experiments will become extremely difficult."

"That’s also why they won’t let my father go..."

"I know you have control over Gailo Island, so I hope you can send someone to investigate."

Selena Kensington revealed her intention.

Samuel Dalton put away the map, his expression a bit tense.

"Leave this matter to me, so don’t worry too much, sister."

Samuel Dalton worried if Selena knew too much, the Godsbane Organization would pose a danger to her.

So he wanted to keep Selena from getting too entangled in this matter.

Because the danger they faced was unknown.

Moreover, during a previous conversation with Sterling Norwood, he decided to send people to investigate Gailo Island.

Now, with the map Selena handed him, he might learn quite a bit of intelligence...

Selena Kensington nodded slightly, "Then I’ll leave this to you."

"Alright."

The night wind was so boisterous; Samuel Dalton feared Selena Kensington would catch cold.

So after they finished discussing this matter, Samuel Dalton drove Selena Kensington back to the hotel.

Sheltering Selena to the hotel entrance, Samuel Dalton prepared to leave.

"I hope sister shines at tomorrow’s film festival."

Samuel Dalton slightly curled his lips, his eyes full of confidence in Selena Kensington.

Selena Kensington smiled, "Are you that confident in me?"

"Absolutely."

Selena waved her hand, "Hurry back."

Samuel Dalton said no more, and after bidding farewell to Selena Kensington, he left.

Later, Selena Kensington and Hope Norwood also returned to the hotel suite.

*

In the room.

Selena Kensington tidied up and then lay on the bed.

She glanced at the time; it wasn’t very late.

So she picked up her phone and sent a message to Sterling Norwood.

[Selie Stays Slim]: What are you doing, duck?

Sterling Norwood didn’t reply to her, and after waiting a while, Selena decided Sterling Norwood must be busy, so she went to chat with someone else.

[Sister’s Little Cotton Jacket]: Finally remembered me?

"..."

Seeing Hugh Kensington’s message, Selena Kensington fell into thought.

It seemed she had indeed promised Hugh Kensington she would tell him once she arrived at Isle of Cyrin.

But upon arriving, she was so preoccupied with not worrying Sterling Norwood that she forgot about Hugh Kensignton...

However, Selena definitely wouldn’t tell Hugh Kensington the truth, or else he’d surely tease her about forgetting her brother for a man.

[Selie Stays Slim]: I’ve been so busy today; I just now have the time.

[Selie Stays Slim]: See, I sent you a message as soon as I returned to the hotel. Aren’t you moved?

Well, Hugh Kensington couldn’t see what kind of expression she had now, so Selena unabashedly deceived her younger brother.

[Sister’s Little Cotton Jacket]: ...?

[Sister’s Little Cotton Jacket]: Thanks, but I’m not moved.

[Sister’s Little Cotton Jacket]: Is it because your husband didn’t reply, you finally thought of me?

"..."

One must admit, Hugh Kensington sometimes really knows Selena well, even guessing this.

Seeing her thoughts unmercifully exposed by Hugh Kensington, Selena gave up hiding them.

She lazily lifted her hand and replied to Hugh Kensington.

[Selie Stays Slim]: Yep.

[Selie Stays Slim]: Good, becoming more self-aware.

[Sister’s Little Cotton Jacket]: Farewell. Rest well.

Hugh Kensington seemed uninterested in interacting with Selena Kensington, quickly sending a message and slipping away.

"Tsk."

Selena Kensington looked at Hugh Kensington’s last message, her eyes filled with amusement.

After finishing the conversation with Hugh Kensington, Selena also sent greetings to others.

This time, more than half an hour had passed.

Sterling Norwood still hadn’t replied to her.

Selena Kensington furrowed her brows slightly.

She remembered at noon, Sterling Norwood had already arrived at the hotel in Oakhaven.

By then, Oakhaven was already night...

Was he asleep by chance?

Considering this possibility, Selena Kensington had no choice but to set down her phone, ready to sleep.

But just as Selena Kensington was about to turn off the bedside light, she noticed the phone screen light up.

Selena Kensington picked up the phone again.

It was a call from Sterling Norwood.

Selena Kensington’s eyes lit up, flashing a hint of delight.

She immediately answered the call, "Sterling~!"

She blissfully called out.

Hearing Selena Kensington’s sweet call, Sterling Norwood’s lips curved.

"Mm, Have you rested?"

Sterling Norwood’s voice was as usual, and Selena Kensington, who was concerned earlier, felt relieved.

"Nearly, I was ready to sleep since I hadn’t heard back from you..."

Selena Kensington muttered.

Though it sounded like a complaint, her gentle, clear sweet voice made it more of a coquettish request for attention.

Sterling Norwood’s smile immediately grew broader.

"I just went to the suburbs, the signal was bad."

Actually, Sterling Norwood had gone with some of Norwood Family’s Hidden Guard to test those imposters.

To prevent exposure, they blocked all electronic signals.

During this test, although they lost several people,

the opponent’s losses were obviously greater...

Sterling Norwood directly killed two imposters.

Initially, they planned to take advantage of the opportunity to rescue the Jennings family, but had to retreat when the Viper Syndicate arrived for assistance.

During the retreat, Sterling Norwood encountered an ’acquaintance’.

Cole Vaughn.

Although Cole Vaughn wore a mask, hidden under a black robe,

Sterling Norwood sensed his presence during their duel.

Because Cole Vaughn had that kind of aura that made Sterling feel uncomfortable.

This feeling was only felt from Cole Vaughn before.

So Sterling Norwood immediately confirmed the identity of the man in the black robe.

Upon seeing Sterling Norwood, Cole Vaughn didn’t utter a word, immediately engaging in a fight with him.

Later, Sterling Norwood surprising discovered the reason why Cole Vaughn made him feel uncomfortable.

He was also an imposter.
