Reborn as the Sweetheart of a Paranoid Boss-Chapter 215: No One Can Take You Away from Me
Meanwhile, Selena Kensington returned to the Norwood Family from Stardust Entertainment in the evening.
Sterling Norwood hadn’t come back yet.
By dinnertime, Sterling Norwood was still not back, but he called her to say she should eat first.
Selena just assumed he was a bit busy today and ate by herself.
After Selena finished her dinner alone, Sterling Norwood was still not back.
She waited for a while and eventually decided to go and take a bath by herself.
After Selena finished her bath, she went upstairs to take a look, but Sterling Norwood was still not back.
She thought for a moment and picked up her phone to send Sterling Norwood a message: Why aren’t you back yet?
As soon as the message was sent, a call came in.
The display showed the caller’s location was Oakhaven.
Selena’s heart suddenly tightened.
Is it them...
Selena pressed the call button.
"Hello."
"Selie, it’s your brother Timothy."
Selena didn’t make a sound, tears welling up in her eyes.
"...Brother Timothy?"
She choked up as she spoke.
Her memories seemed to linger on the scene ten years ago when Timothy Jennings and other members of the Jennings family sent her back.
But the boy from back then had now become a steady man.
Timothy Jennings was somewhat disoriented hearing Selena’s voice.
"...Yes, it’s me."
"I’ve come to Aethelgard, and I want... to meet you."
This was what Timothy Jennings decided after much pondering; he had to meet Selena.
Besides, he also wanted to know how Selena felt about Sterling Norwood...
Hearing that Timothy Jennings was in Aethelgard, Selena was delighted, "Really?! Then Brother Timothy, can we meet tomorrow?!"
"Hmm... at the café next to your company."
"Alright!!"
Selena was so excited that she forgot to wonder how Timothy Jennings knew there was a café next to Stardust Entertainment.
After hanging up the phone, Selena lay on the bed waiting for Sterling Norwood to return.
It was only afterward she thought, How does Timothy Jennings know there’s a café next to my company?
Could it be... he’s been here already? Just that she wasn’t aware?
Selena didn’t tell Hugh Kensington about the meeting.
On the one hand, she felt Timothy’s sudden appearance might not be simple.
On the other hand, Selena wanted to see if Timothy was hiding anything from her...
Thinking about these things, sleepiness crept over Selena’s mind.
As she thought, she leaned against the bed and fell asleep.
At midnight.
Sterling Norwood finally came back.
His complexion seemed much paler, and his steps were somewhat unsteady.
He walked into the bedroom; the bedside lamp was still on.
Selena was leaning against the bed, asleep.
It seemed she wanted to wait for him, but couldn’t resist the sleepiness.
With a hint of helplessness in his eyes, he walked over, placed her head on the pillow, and tucked her in.
Looking at her quiet and lovely sleeping face, Sterling Norwood murmured almost with morbid obsession, "Soon, soon..."
"No one will take you away from my side."

The next day, when Selena woke up, she found Sterling Norwood was still there.
Looking at the man’s sleeping face and the slight dark circles, Selena frowned slightly.
Why does Sterling Norwood... look a bit pale?
"Ajing."
Sterling Norwood slowly opened his eyes as Selena called him.
Sterling Norwood responded softly.
"Don’t stay up late anymore, take more rest."
Selena said with concern.
Sterling Norwood’s lips moved slightly, "...Okay."
After that, Selena insisted Sterling Norwood sleep a bit longer while she went downstairs first.
As she had to meet Timothy Jennings, Selena got up early to prepare.
Once Selena was ready, Sterling Norwood was awake too.
He watched Selena’s actions and asked, "Where are you going?"
Selena replied cheerfully, "My cousin from Grandma’s side is here, and we arranged to meet."
