Reborn as the Sweetheart of a Paranoid Boss-Chapter 397: Clues
Cassia Lawson had quite a headache; what on earth was this all about!
"Spill everything you know!!!"
Cassia Lawson also hadn’t expected that there were so many things about Miranda Kensington that she wasn’t aware of.
Miranda Kensington looked at the people in the room, her expression darkening, not daring to put on airs any longer; she immediately shared all that she knew.
"It was what I overheard several times as a child when passing by Dad’s room..."
"Dad was making phone calls with several people, repeatedly assuring and promising them things; at the end, he would urge them to transfer money quickly..."
Selena Kensington’s face was a bit grave, "Do you know who he was talking to?"
Miranda Kensington shook her head, "Dad was very cautious about this. Once, I couldn’t resist my curiosity and looked at his phone, only to find all his call logs had been erased. Later, when Dad found out, I got scolded..."
Mason Kensington used to be less cautious in his dealings, for something to push him to this extent...
It indicates the person behind the scenes must not be simple.
What kind of person...
Moreover, Connor Kensington must have foreseen it already; otherwise, he wouldn’t have prepared his will in advance.
It was as if he knew that once he embarked on this journey, he’d possibly never return.
But... an adversary that even Connor Kensington was powerless against, someone he prepared final arrangements for...
Selena Kensington couldn’t come up with a guess for a while.
Miranda Kensington hesitated for a moment, gazing at her siblings’ gloomy expressions across the room.
She swallowed hard and spoke up, "There’s one more thing you might want to know..."
Upon hearing this, Selena Kensington and Hugh Kensington lifted their heads, staring directly at her.
"The old steward of the Kensington Family, if you can find him, you might get some clues."
Selena Kensington and Hugh Kensington exchanged a glance.
Hugh Kensington spoke, "What’s the issue with him?"
"That old steward was previously a neighbor of our grandfather; when Uncle found a way out, he hired him as the steward."
"When Dad took us to the Kensington Family before, he seemed quite afraid when he saw the old steward, like he was afraid the steward would say something, and later found an excuse to dismiss him."
Selena Kensington frowned slightly upon hearing this.
"Ten years have passed; where do we begin to find the old steward?"
Miranda Kensington shrugged upon hearing this, "I don’t know; I’ve told you everything I know."
Selena Kensington listened, but didn’t press further.
What Miranda shared today indeed provided them with a lot of information.
Afterward, as promised, Selena transferred some money to Miranda and prepared to leave.
Cassia Lawson escorted them out.
As Selena Kensington was about to leave, Cassia Lawson hesitated for a moment and still called out, "Selie, Hugh."
Selena Kensington and Hugh Kensington turned around.
"Your father truly loved you both, so no matter what truths you discover, don’t betray his love."
"He surely hoped you would live well."
Selena Kensington paused slightly, "Rest assured, Aunt, we’re not that fragile."
With that, she and Hugh turned and left again.
The car slowly pulled away from the village entrance.
Cassia Lawson watched the car grow more distant until it vanished from sight.
Only then did she sigh.
Miranda Kensington stepped out from the door behind her.
"Mom..."
Miranda Kensington called softly.
Cassia Lawson turned to her, "You did well today, Miranda. Just live well from now on."
"Mother can’t support you for too much longer..."

In the car.
"Sis, Dad he..."
Hugh Kensington spoke with difficulty.
"What Miranda Kensington said is probably true. Looks like we really need to find a way to locate the old steward..."
Selena Kensington thought for a moment and spoke.
Hugh Kensington gave a bitter smile, "It’s easy to say, but after ten years, where do we start looking... wait a minute!"
Hugh’s eyes suddenly sharpened. "If it’s brother-in-law, maybe he can actually find him." 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖
"We’re thinking along the same lines."
Finding someone among millions is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
But with Sterling Norwood’s help, it might be much easier.
"Hope, to The Imperial Building."

Afterward, the three returned to Aethelgard.
Selena Kensington and Hope Norwood got out of the car, and Selena asked Hugh Kensington to head home first.
"I’ll inform you when there’s news; you head back first."
Selena said to Hugh by the car door.
"Alright."
After parting with Hugh, Selena Kensington went into The Imperial Building with Hope Norwood.
"Ma’am."
"Hello, Ma’am."
The passing employees of The Imperial Building greeted Selena Kensington.
"Ma’am, you’re here!"
Selena Kensington responded with a smile, suddenly hearing a familiar voice.
She looked over.
It was someone she knew.
One of the three executives who initially saw her as a lifesaver.
The person walked over, "Ma’am, you’re here again, that’s great! I actually have something to report soon!"
"..."
Selena Kensington’s lips twitched slightly.
"You are...?"
After hesitating for a while, Selena asked.
The person was taken aback, then tapped his own head.
"Look at my memory, it’s been so long, and I haven’t introduced myself to you."
"I’m Sean Stark, the head of the public relations department at The Imperial Building."
"I’m in charge of The Imperial Building’s official Weibo and other PR affairs."
Sean Stark introduced himself.
Hearing Sean say he’s the head of PR, Selena Kensington instinctively asked, "So you were behind those Weibo posts..."
Upon hearing Selena ask about the Weibo issues of The Imperial Building, Sean straightened his back.
"Rest assured, Ma’am, those posts were all approved by the president; I just tweaked them a bit!"
"..."
Selena Kensington’s lips twitched slightly.
Those tweaks were well done indeed.
Then, Sean started saying something even more shocking.
He leaned in a bit closer, though never too close to Selena Kensington.
"Actually... I’m a CP fan of Sterling and Selena!"
"?????"
Selena Kensington was overwhelmed.
For she simply couldn’t imagine a middle-aged man being a fan of this kind of thing.
This was way too playful, wasn’t it?
So bold, so forward.
Selena sighed.
"You’re... great!"
After pondering for a while, Selena didn’t know what to say.
Finally, she managed to blurt out three words.
Yet Sean took it as encouragement, becoming even more enthusiastic, "Rest assured, Ma’am! Sterling and Selena’s relationship is indestructible!"
Upon hearing Sean’s remark, Selena suddenly laughed.
The heavy mood in her heart faded a little.
The Imperial Building was truly full of talents, and eccentric ones at that.
She was both amused and helpless. "You should get back to work; I have some matters to attend to."
"Sure, take care, Ma’am!"
After bidding Sean farewell, Selena Kensington and Hope Norwood stepped into the elevator.
As the elevator doors closed, Selena finally exhaled a little.
The employees of The Imperial Building were really enthusiastic...
"Do they trouble you very much, Ma’am?"
Hope Norwood suddenly asked.
At her words, Selena Kensington smiled and shook her head, "Not really troubling."
"Just a bit overwhelming."
By nature, she wasn’t the warm and passionate type, unable to handle those people’s enthusiasm towards her greetings one by one.
