Reborn as the Sweetheart of a Paranoid Boss-Chapter 474 - 473: Family Dinner

But Sidney Dalton no longer paid attention to her.

As he walked out of the office, an assistant came forward to open the meeting room door for him.

After Sidney Dalton entered, the assistant turned to Roxanne Sutton and said, "Sorry, Miss Sutton, the president has a meeting to attend. Please come back another day."

Roxanne Sutton bit her lip slightly, feeling a bit flustered.

But she knew staying here wouldn’t change anything, so she glanced at the meeting room door and then left the floor.

Meanwhile, Selena Kensington and Vivian Sutton were chatting when Sterling Norwood arrived.

Selena Kensington glanced at the car parked outside, then got up. "I’ll be going now."

"Even if Little Minister isn’t around, don’t order takeout for every meal. You can cook for yourself or eat out."

Selena Kensington thought for a moment and added another sentence.

"Okay, okay, I’ve got it under control."

Vivian Sutton then saw Selena Kensington to the door.

When they reached the small gate outside, Selena told Vivian to go back.

"Go on, I’ll come again another day."

"Alright."

Selena turned to get into the car. She opened the back door but found Sterling Norwood wasn’t sitting in the back but in the driver’s seat.

She paused, then closed the back door and opened the passenger side door to get in.

Once Selena was seated and buckled up, Sterling started the car.

"Silvester didn’t come?"

Silvester usually served as the driver, and Selena was surprised that Sterling was driving himself this time.

"I asked him to work overtime at The Imperial Building."

"... It’s tough being your brother."

Selena silently lit a candle in her heart for Silvester.

Then Sterling and Selena headed towards the Kensington Family’s villa area.

Waterview Estate.

When they arrived in front of the Kensington Family’s villa and parked the car, Selena and Sterling got out.

As soon as she got out, Selena took Sterling’s arm, looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar house in front of her.

"It feels like I haven’t been back for a long time."

This was where Selena lived before she was fifteen. After that, she moved out.

Until she reclaimed the house.

Now the house still stood, but the people had long changed.

"Let’s go."

Selena only sighed for a moment, then led Sterling inside.

She had a key to the Kensington Family’s house, so she entered quickly.

"Hugh, Quinn."

As soon as Selena entered, she called out.

Then she saw Hugh Kensington and Felicity Dalton coming out of the kitchen with dishes.

"Sister, brother-in-law, you’re here."

Selena nodded slightly.

Then she took off her coat and placed it on the sofa.

"It smells so good..."

After taking off her coat, Selena walked over.

Seeing the table almost fully set up with dishes, Selena exclaimed with surprise, "Not bad, Hugh, you still remember what your sister likes to eat."

Hugh pouted slightly.

He clearly remembered that his sister was very picky.

If it didn’t suit her taste, she’d rather not eat.

Hugh, to prevent his sister from starving, had been studying her preferences.

That’s why he remembered so well the foods Selena liked.

"Dinner’s ready."

Felicity Dalton came out of the kitchen with bowls and chopsticks and said.

"Okay."

"Sterling, sit here."

Selena called Sterling to sit on one side of the table while Hugh and Felicity sat opposite them.

"Dig in," Hugh said after everyone was seated.

Looking at the table full of dishes, Selena sighed, "A lot of these were probably made by Quinn, right?"

If it were Hugh cooking, he wouldn’t pay attention to so many details.

As long as it tasted good, he was done.

That’s why Selena asked.

Then she saw the boiled shrimp on the table, her eyes lit up. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

Selena tugged on Sterling’s sleeve, speaking in a naturally coquettish tone, "Sterling, peel the shrimp for me."

Sterling curled his lips into a smile, rolling up his sleeves slightly before picking up plastic gloves and putting them on.

Then he started peeling the shrimp for Selena.

Hearing Selena’s question, Felicity Dalton was momentarily taken aback, then nodded with a smile, "I learned a lot in cooking class before, and cooking is quite fun."

Selena gazed enviously at Felicity, "That’s great. Too bad I’m a disaster in the kitchen."

Hugh immediately looked over, "Sister, so you know you’re a disaster in the kitchen..."

Selena shrugged, resigning herself to saying, "I couldn’t tell salt from sugar when I was a kid, and I still couldn’t when cooking with Sterling last time. I’ve just accepted it."

After Selena spoke, she found the atmosphere a bit silent.

She paused, then noticed Hugh looking at her deeply.

"If I’m not mistaken, that last time you cooked was when you were nine. So you’ve remembered?"

Hugh asked quietly.

Selena paused. She probably hadn’t mentioned this to Hugh.

After thinking for a moment, she nodded, "I’ve remembered everything."

"When I went to Stonefall, I met Timothy Jennings."

After saying that, Hugh understood, but he was more surprised that Selena had met Timothy Jennings.

Moreover, why did meeting Timothy Jennings trigger her memories?

"Timothy? He appeared? Does that mean Grandma and Uncle are..."

Hugh asked eagerly.

Selena gave him a calming look.

"It’s a long story. Timothy will come again someday, and you can ask him then."

When Hugh heard this, he pressed his lips slightly.

Suppressing his excitement and eagerness, he calmly said, "I understand."

Seeing Hugh calm down, Selena sighed silently in her heart.

Her Heavenly Master Bloodline was too miraculous, and her brother was just an ordinary person.

If possible, Selena didn’t want to involve Hugh in this.

The less he knew, the safer he would be.

That’s why Selena didn’t explain everything to Hugh directly.

When the time was right, it wouldn’t be too late for her to tell him.

Perhaps Hugh realized this, which is why he didn’t continue questioning Selena.

"Let’s eat. By the way, when are you and Quinn planning to head to The Northern Realm?"

Hugh and Felicity exchanged a glance, and eventually, Felicity spoke up, "The flight is at seven on New Year’s Eve."

Selena was a bit surprised, "So early?"

Felicity sighed a bit, "The event organizers moved the time up to allow the local Chinese community to experience the New Year atmosphere."

Selena nodded, "Then after the event, stay there and have some fun for a few days."

Then Selena looked toward Hugh, "Hugh, don’t push yourself too hard, alright."

"All those clues are less important than your safety."

Hugh nodded and then, slightly helpless, "Sister, I’m not a little kid anymore. How many times have you said that to me?"

Selena glared at him, "What, you find me annoying?"

"Not at all..."

How could Hugh find Selena’s words annoying? Even though he knew she repeated them so often because she cared about and worried for him.
