Reborn as the Sweetheart of a Paranoid Boss

Chapter 697: Sidney Dalton’s Former Ambitions

The things Nancy Kensington said were roughly in line with Selena Kensington’s speculations.

But what exactly did this ’Rosemary’ mean...

Nancy Kensington gathered up the worry and thoughts on her face and looked at Selena Kensington with a smile.

"Take good care of yourself, I’ll continue the investigation in the shadows."

The meaning behind Nancy Kensington’s words was quite clear; she didn’t want Selena Kensington to be overly involved in this matter.

Selena Kensington responded softly, not allowing Nancy Kensington to know about the Fell Bloodline or the Clan of Celestial Masters.

After all, in Nancy Kensington’s mind, she only believed that those with special bloodlines had unique abilities due to genetic mutations.

After finishing the video chat with Nancy Kensington, Selena Kensington put away that diary.

When Selena Kensington turned around, she met the deep eyes of Sterling Norwood.

She froze for a moment, a strange feeling surging in her heart.

But that feeling quickly dissipated.

Because Sterling Norwood lowered his eyes and gently placed his hand on Selena Kensington’s abdomen.

"When does your next plan start?"

Hearing Sterling Norwood ask this, Selena Kensington’s thoughts were suddenly diverted.

The next plan Sterling Norwood referred to was naturally about Sidney Dalton.

Catherine Blanchett had been dealt with, so all that was left was Sidney Dalton.

To bring down Sidney Dalton, they needed to find his safe...

"Let Roxanne Sutton come by the Norwood Family tomorrow."

Selena Kensington closed her eyes and spoke softly.

*

The next day.

Roxanne Sutton and Annelise Mayfield once again arrived at the Norwood Family.

The conversation took place in the courtyard outside the main house, as before.

When Selena Kensington came out from the main house, she noticed Annelise Mayfield next to Roxanne Sutton and raised an eyebrow slightly.

"Why did you come along too? Afraid I’d bully your Sister Roxanne?"

Annelise Mayfield blinked and quickly defended her innocence, "How could that be! I believe you wouldn’t!"

Selena Kensington gave a cryptic smile, "Maybe I actually would..."

Annelise Mayfield was instantly stunned, her mouth slightly open, her expression somewhat dazed.

"No... no way..."

When she said this, her voice was a bit weak, sounding very uncertain.

"... Pfft."

Selena Kensington couldn’t hold back and laughed.

After so long, Annelise Mayfield was still so easy to fool.

Roxanne Sutton’s mouth twitched slightly as she glared at Annelise Mayfield, "How many times have I told you, don’t believe everything people say!"

Annelise Mayfield, after being scolded by Roxanne Sutton, pouted, "But Sister Kensington isn’t just anyone..."

"..."

Roxanne Sutton was momentarily speechless.

"... She’s right, you should remain vigilant, or when no one is watching, you might be deceived away."

Selena Kensington chuckled and spoke softly.

"I know, I’m not dumb."

Annelise Mayfield quietly defended herself.

But neither Selena Kensington nor Roxanne Sutton commented on her statement.

This little interlude lightened the atmosphere in the courtyard significantly.

Roxanne Sutton suppressed the complexities in her eyes and raised her gaze to Selena Kensington.

"What do you want me to do?"

She knew full well that Selena Kensington had kept her around for so long and had even protected her at the engagement party because there was still use for her.

So when Selena Kensington summoned her to the Norwood Family, she knew her time was running out.

Selena Kensington lifted her gaze, a glimmer flashing in her eyes.

"You know about my parents, right?"

She spoke with a tone of certainty.

Roxanne Sutton was taken aback, and then her upper body instinctively leaned back a bit.

"You..."

A glint of shock flashed in her eyes.

But she wasn’t too surprised either, because in the world, there’s no wall that doesn’t let the wind through.

Although the incident happened more than a decade ago, with Selena Kensington’s current status, if she really set her mind to investigate, she wouldn’t find nothing at all.

"Don’t worry, I know you weren’t involved in that matter."

Selena Kensington said calmly.

If Roxanne Sutton had really been involved in the things of the past, she wouldn’t have just reacted with such an expression.

Upon hearing this, Roxanne Sutton fell silent.

The shock in her heart gradually settled into calmness.

Annelise Mayfield, on the side, didn’t know what Selena Kensington and Roxanne Sutton were talking about.

But seeing Selena Kensington’s slightly stern look and Roxanne Sutton’s silent expression, she seemed to understand something and obediently played the background role.

After a while, Roxanne Sutton spoke up.

"I know."

This was the one thing Sidney Dalton was wary of Roxanne Sutton for.

Because Roxanne Sutton was with Sidney Dalton from a young age, and he didn’t hide much from her in those early years.

Until later, when Sidney Dalton gradually grew more mature and his thoughts deeper.

Sidney Dalton kept Roxanne Sutton around because he was used to her being there.

Another reason was that Roxanne Sutton knew too much about him, and only by keeping her close could Sidney Dalton be at ease.

But all this became insignificant once Roxanne Sutton touched upon his interests.

Selena Kensington remained silent, so Roxanne Sutton continued.

"At that time, he had just taken over Radiance, which was rather insignificant between the two giants, Stardust and Aethel."

"Although the rumor back then was that the three major entertainment companies were standing equally, in reality, Aethel was steady and firm, Stardust was thriving, and only Radiance was declining."

"When Xu took over Radiance, all he saw was a mess. But he had no choice because within the Dalton Family, his older brother’s brilliance was too brilliant, so to gain Mr. Dalton’s favor, he had to gamble everything on Radiance."

"Later on, during Radiance’s development, he started becoming a bit extreme, eager to create a sensational business, wanting to take a risky path... Initially, he didn’t intend to target your parents; he merely set traps for Stardust’s artists. But then, some people appeared."

"They approached Xu, telling him that if he eliminated the Kensington couple, Radiance would dominate. I don’t know what exactly they said to Xu, but he agreed to their plan and began scheming, even bribing your uncle to know the Kensington couple’s itinerary..."

"In the end, the plan was successful, and no one traced it back to him. As those people said, without the Kensington couple, Stardust began to decline, and Aethel also slowly became low-key. Radiance started to shine with its splendor..."

Roxanne Sutton laid out the events one by one.

After saying all this, she felt a sense of relief internally.

After all, these matters had been hidden deep within her heart for so long.

She had hidden them for so long that she had even forgotten how she initially felt.

What she said was largely consistent with Selena Kensington’s prior speculations.

She just couldn’t understand why someone as cautious and reserved as the present Sidney Dalton had been so reckless back then...
