Reborn as the Sweetheart of a Paranoid Boss-Chapter 145: Ignorance Is the Cruelest

Anson Sutton paused when he heard her words, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.

Selena Kensington’s eyes darkened.

As expected, Anson Sutton already knew.

Lauren Sinclair smiled mysteriously and said, "Aunt Lauren has always treated you as a daughter, you’re Vivian’s sister!"

"Haha... Thank you, Aunt Lauren!"

After dinner, Selena said she had some matters at home and decided not to stay overnight.

Vivian Sutton accompanied her to the door.

She glanced at Selena, remained silent for a while, and eventually asked.

"Selie, is something on your mind?"

Having known Selena for so long, Vivian Sutton was sensitive to changes in Selena’s mood and naturally noticed that Selena was feeling heavy-hearted.

Selena looked at Vivian Sutton with a complex expression.

Anson Sutton already knew about Roxanne Sutton’s existence but hadn’t acknowledged her due to Lauren Sinclair and Vivian Sutton.

But that would only be a matter of time.

Should she... tell Vivian Sutton?

"Vivian... recently, be careful around Roxanne Sutton."

Finally, Selena spoke the words.

Vivian Sutton was a bit stunned but admitted openly, "To be honest, I’ve disliked her since I first saw her."

Selena looked at Vivian Sutton.

Sighed.

Ultimately decided to tell her.

As for what Vivian Sutton would do, that was her decision.

"What I’m going to tell you next, I hope you’re mentally prepared."

Vivian Sutton was also made serious by Selena’s solemn expression.

She nodded solemnly.

The next second, she heard Selena’s voice, "Roxanne Sutton is your... half-sister."

"..."

Vivian Sutton was like struck by lightning, standing dumbfounded.

Her expression was bewildered and dazed.

Selena couldn’t bear it, she stepped forward and hugged Vivian Sutton.

"I’m sorry."

If possible, she wouldn’t want Vivian Sutton to go through this.

"...Selie... Can I be alone for a while?"

After a while, Vivian Sutton finally spoke.

She trusted every word Selena said, which is why she was too shocked to respond.

Just at this time, Sterling Norwood came to pick up Selena.

Selena glanced at Vivian Sutton; her eyes, although filled with disbelief and bewilderment, didn’t show signs of despair.

Selena nodded, "Don’t do anything foolish. Clement and I are here."

Vivian Sutton forced a smile, "Got it, you should go now, don’t keep your husband waiting too long."

Only then did Selena leave and got in the car.

In the car.

Selena sighed.

Recalling Vivian Sutton’s appearance before she left.

She couldn’t help but say to Sterling Norwood, "Perhaps telling her the truth directly was... too cruel."

After all, Vivian Sutton had always lived in a greenhouse, pampered by her parents, and even Clement Luther, her childhood friend, had always cherished her.

Yet, one day Selena told her this.

Vivian Sutton might find it hard to accept.

Sterling Norwood spoke calmly, comforting her, "Keeping her ignorant is the cruelest thing; don’t think too much."

"...Alright."

Selena indeed thought this way too, but since this matter involved Vivian Sutton...

She couldn’t help but worry.

At night, Selena lay on her bed, her mind restless.

She stared at her phone, waiting for a message from Vivian Sutton.

Even when Sterling Norwood came out of the bathroom, she still hadn’t received a reply from Vivian Sutton.

Selena sighed, preparing to rest.

The next moment, her phone started ringing.

It was Vivian Sutton.

Selena’s eyes lit up and she answered.

"Vivian."

There was a hint of joy in Selena’s tone.

Vivian Sutton responded from the other side; although still a bit sluggish, she was much better than before.

"Selie, I’ve thought it through."

"It was my dad who betrayed my mom."
