Reborn as the Sweetheart of a Paranoid Boss-Chapter 526: Mrs. Hill

Selena Kensington looked towards the direction where he was gazing before his death.

Over there, it seemed to be a hotel, nothing remarkable.

"Was it you who fired the shot just now?"

Selena asked.

The elite of the Hill Family shook his head, "We didn’t bring any snipers, the family head has already sent people to investigate this matter."

The sudden gunshot had also greatly surprised Fred and Sterling Norwood.

They had initially thought it was aimed at Selena, but didn’t expect that the target was actually the kidnapper.

As soon as the incident occurred, Fred immediately arranged for several people to investigate this matter.

"..."

Selena slightly pursed her lips, looking at the kidnapper.

What did his last words mean before he died?

Could it be that Hesai is truly terrifying in some way?

After pondering for a while, Selena let out a slight sigh.

Then she got up and left.

At this moment, Patriarch Fred approached.

"Mrs. Norwood, you weren’t frightened, were you?"

Selena gently shook her head, "I’m fine, thank you for your concern."

She was just still pondering over the information that the kidnapper had revealed earlier.

"I will handle the follow-up on this matter, why don’t you all come to my manor for a visit."

Hearing Fred’s invitation, no one refused.

The group left the place, leaving the remaining end-work to the others.

*

When the group entered the Hill Family’s manor, a butler in the manor served them tea and snacks.

And then Mrs. Hill came down from the stairs.

"You’re all back."

When her gaze landed on Hugh Kensington, there was a brief moment of distraction.

She suddenly quickened her pace, her movements slightly flustered.

"You..."

She stood in front of Hugh, staring intently at him, but eventually said nothing.

Seeing Mrs. Hill, who seemed to have lost her composure, even Fred was somewhat surprised.

"Sophia, what is this..."

Mrs. Hill regained her composure and said apologetically to Hugh, "I’m terribly sorry, I must have made a fool of myself."

"I just found this young fellow to resemble an old acquaintance of mine too much, and I couldn’t control my emotions for a moment."

There was some confusion in Hugh’s eyes too, but he ended up saying nothing.

"It’s alright, madam, don’t mind."

Mrs. Hill gave a gentle smile, "You must be Mrs. Norwood’s brother, when I met your sister earlier, it felt as if I had met an old friend, and now seeing you, it’s as if I’ve seen my old acquaintance, we are truly destined."

"Indeed, it is a sort of fate."

Hugh smiled and said.

Afterwards, under Mrs. Hill’s hosting, the group sat down and rested in the manor.

"Mrs. Norwood, what did that kidnapper say to you earlier, if it’s convenient, can you share?"

Fred asked.

Selena nodded, "I actually have something I want to ask Mr. Fred."

"Please, go ahead."

"Do you happen to know about a place called Hesai?"

Hearing Selena’s words, Fred pondered for a moment before speaking, "It seems to be a small town in the Southern Reach."

Mrs. Hill then spoke, "Hesai is a relatively remote town in the Southern Reach, but it has gained some fame because of its abundant rosemary production."

Fred nodded, looking at Selena, "Mrs. Norwood, is there something wrong with that place?"

Selena’s smile remained unchanged, "Mr. Fred, is there no other organization or force stationed there?"

Fred’s expression was a little peculiar, "Mrs. Norwood, are you suggesting that the kidnappers came there and thus incurred pursuit?"

Selena nodded. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

"I’m just a bit curious, exactly what type of organization or force would drive those kidnappers to seek the Hill Family’s help?"

If it were just some local small organizations, those kidnappers wouldn’t be so terrified and even come up with kidnapping to seek the Hill Family’s protection.

Fred pondered over Selena’s words.

"Mrs. Norwood, thank you for the reminder."

"I will send someone to investigate Hesai afterwards."

After thinking for a moment and finding no leads, Fred could only temporarily give up the thought.

Just then, as Fred finished speaking, a subordinate walked in from outside.

"Family Head, we didn’t find any suspicious persons at that hotel, they retreated quickly and left no traces, our trail was cut off as soon as they left the hotel."

Fred looked somewhat serious, "Not a single clue left behind?"

The subordinate shook his head.

"I understand, you may leave now."

Afterwards, the subordinate left.

Fred sighed, "I’m sorry, we will continue to follow up on this matter."

After all, this incident occurred on the Hill Family’s territory, if Fred doesn’t thoroughly investigate it, the outside world might begin to doubt the Hill Family.

Afterwards, they continued to talk for a while, and then Selena, Sterling Norwood, Hugh Kensington, and Felicity Dalton took a private plane and left The D-Nation.

After they left, Mrs. Hill came alone to the glass greenhouse in the manor.

As she entered, an Aethelgard maid, who was also from the Empire, followed in.

Once she entered, Mrs. Hill scanned the surroundings and found no one around.

"Miss Kerr."

The maid spoke to Mrs. Hill in Mandarin.

"Xiaoyi, I just saw a child, he looks so much like my father..."

"At first, I thought he was Connor, but then I realized I was being delusional, their ages didn’t match at all."

The maid comforted Mrs. Hill, "There are many people in the world who look alike, Miss Kerr, maybe you just miss the master, mistress, and young master Kensington too much."

Mrs. Hill slightly shook her head, "No..."

"This time, I am quite clear-headed."

Then, as if she remembered something, she quickly asked,

"Xiaoyi, is it possible to find information on the Lady of the Norwood Family?"

Xiaoyi thought for a moment, "I remember this Lady from the Norwood Family, she seems to be a director, there should be some information online about her."

Hearing Xiaoyi’s words, Mrs. Hill quickly took out her phone and searched for Selena Kensington’s information.

Selena Kensington, 21 years old, from Aethelgard...

Mrs. Hill read down bit by bit, this information was quite superficial, something the general public would know.

When she reached the relatives section, her gaze trembled.

She raised her phone in disbelief and showed it to Xiaoyi.

Her voice was trembling, "Their father... is Connor Kensington."

Mrs. Hill’s eyes reddened, tears welling up in her eyes, "Xiaoyi, those two children are Connor’s children..."

She realized she missed them just like that.

Xiaoyi kept calm unlike Mrs. Hill, "Miss Kerr, there are many people with the same name in this world, their father might not necessarily be young master Kensington."

Mrs. Hill shook her head, "No, I am very sure, Hugh this child, resembles my father very much, that alone, I can be sure."
