Reborn as the Sweetheart of a Paranoid Boss

Chapter 737: Miss Kensington, Our First Meeting

Sloane Hawthorne and Annelise Mayfield’s fans focus solely on data for their idols, not causing trouble or stirring up drama.

Therefore, after the official announcement on the "Who Are You to Me" show’s Weibo, the comments section was surprisingly calm, apart from a few small accounts occasionally making noise, the rest remained peaceful.

Tessa Sinclair and Annelise Mayfield’s agents are not amateurs either; they quickly organized fans to push this to the headlines, once again boosting Sloane Hawthorne and Annelise Mayfield’s popularity.

When Selena Kensington saw all this, she couldn’t help but sigh.

"Hugh is more suited to the entertainment industry than I imagined."

He’s mastered his father Connor Kensington’s approach completely, even surpassing him.

He clearly knows how to manage a large entertainment agency and how to treat the artists under his supervision.

This version of Hugh makes Selena reflect on her past decision.

At the agreed time with Lynn Rhodes, Selena Kensington heads out again with Hope Norwood.

Hope Norwood is still waiting in the Stardust lounge on the first floor.

Selena Kensington, worried she might be bored, says, "You might have to wait a bit longer today. If you get bored, feel free to walk around."

Hope Norwood nods, "Alright, ma’am."

Though she says this, she remains upright and sits on the sofa in the lounge.

Selena Kensington looks at her and sighs softly but says nothing further.

Hope Norwood is inherently like this, and Selena doesn’t intend to force her to change.

After settling Hope Norwood, Selena Kensington turns and leaves the lounge, heading toward the elevator.

Lynn Rhodes’ office floor isn’t high, so Selena quickly arrives by elevator.

She steps out of the elevator.

On Lynn Rhodes’ floor, there aren’t many offices.

Each office is spaced apart, giving the staff substantial privacy.

This arrangement was made by Hugh Kensington for Lynn Rhodes, ensuring crowded spaces didn’t disrupt Lynn’s creative thoughts, hence the quiet and spacious office area.

Relying on her memory, Selena Kensington finds Lynn Rhodes’ office.

She knocks on the door.

"Come in."

It’s Lynn Rhodes’ voice.

But Selena Kensington feels Lynn’s voice seems hollow, almost mechanical.

Selena frowns slightly before opening the door and stepping inside.

Upon entering, her body instinctively tenses in caution.

Because aside from Lynn Rhodes, there are two other people in the office.

Cole Vaughn and the female assistant who had been with Zoe Sinclair.

The assistant’s face looks different now, yet why is Selena certain it’s the same person?

Because of her eyes.

The assistant’s eyes are uniquely captivating, irresistibly drawing attention.

This woman’s eyes have the same effect.

Just one glance confirmed to Selena that this woman is the assistant who had been with Zoe Sinclair.

Inside the office.

Cole Vaughn sits in Lynn Rhodes’ chair.

Meanwhile, Lynn stands nearby, her gaze vacant, seemingly lost in thought.

The uniquely-eyed woman stands behind Lynn.

Selena Kensington observes the scene, her inner alarm at its peak.

Yet she doesn’t immediately flee.

Since Cole Vaughn and this woman are here brazenly, there’s either confidence they won’t be discovered or they simply don’t care about being seen.

Additionally, Lynn Rhodes is in their grasp, another reason Selena hasn’t left.

Looking at Lynn, Selena frowns, "What have you done to her?!"

Cole Vaughn shifts his gaze to Selena, scanning downward.

Upon seeing Selena’s raised belly, a flash of malice crosses his previously cold and fierce eyes.

But it disappears quickly, as if it was just an illusion.

Cole Vaughn doesn’t respond to Selena, but the woman behind Lynn tilts her head slightly, "Miss Kensington, nice to meet you."

Hearing the woman speak, Selena looks toward her.

Then she hesitates.

There’s an uncanny resemblance to someone Selena knows.

But who exactly, she can’t pinpoint immediately.

"Who are you?"

Seeing neither Cole Vaughn nor the woman intent on attack, Selena calms down internally.

Yet her vigilance remains heightened.

After all, she hasn’t forgotten these two are currently opposing her.

Janine Linton smiles, but her smile is mechanical, as if carved from a mold, exuding stiffness.

"My identity doesn’t matter. We merely have some business with Miss Kensington, but you’re surrounded by formidable people; meeting you proved challenging..."

Janine Linton sighs seemingly in thought.

Yet her eyes lack any emotional fluctuation.

Her eyes, though enticingly unique, convey no internal depth, mere surface beauty.

Janine shifts focus back to Lynn Rhodes.

"Regarding this lady, you needn’t worry, Miss Kensington. Just need her cooperation; once our task concludes, she’ll remember nothing."

Finishing, she slightly turns her eyes toward Selena, gently smiling, "Such ability is understandable to Miss Kensington, isn’t it?"

"..."

Listening to Janine, Selena remains silent.

Despite Janine’s calm, gentle speech devoid of aggression, Selena feels a discomfort.

Especially her final words.

Selena looks at Janine with scrutiny.

Is this woman the one in The Godsbane Organization with the Mayfield family abilities?

Furthermore, judging by her words, The Godsbane Organization has long been aware of Selena seeking Sidney Dalton for Lark Mayfield to control him and access the safe.

Yet they neither stopped it nor swiftly dealt with Sidney.

No doubt, swiftly handling Sidney was to prevent him from revealing their secrets.

Earlier, they’d placed subconscious hints in Sidney’s mind, ensuring any incident would immediately absolve them.

For The Godsbane Organization, a discarded pawn holds no value beyond a singular conclusion.

Seeing Selena’s mocking expression, Janine Linton’s lips curl into a smile.

"No need to fret over Sidney Dalton, Miss Kensington."
