Reborn as the Sweetheart of a Paranoid Boss-Chapter 257: Grocery Shopping with My Husband

Chapter 257: Chapter 257: Grocery Shopping with My Husband

From the very beginning, the two of them were using each other.

It wasn’t until Paloma Quinn showed a strategy and courage beyond what an Unparalleled Dancer could possess that Rhys Kidd began to change his perception of her.

Perhaps as early as atop the tall city walls of Trinleigh in The Valerion Kingdom, that blood-flame-like butterfly had long since branded his heart.

Rhys Kidd’s love was reserved and deep, so Paloma Quinn never noticed it.

After all, her heart was consumed with hatred for her family and country.

It wasn’t until they led their troops straight into the heart of Karth’s capital, that Rhys Kidd whispered these words in her ear.

"This vast land and kingdom, may I ask you to be my wife?"

At that moment, Paloma Quinn suddenly understood.

But she never truly responded to Rhys Kidd.

Until The Valerion Kingdom unified the country, during the nationwide rejoicing, Paloma Quinn once again climbed atop the tall city gate tower.

Away from the celebratory noise, under the cold moonlit tower, Paloma Quinn, in a light red gauze dress, danced a solo "Butterfly Flame" for Rhys Kidd.

Selena Kensington wrote with more and more feeling, to the point where she almost didn’t feel the passage of time.

Until her hair was gently stroked by Sterling Norwood’s hand, she snapped out of the story.

"Hm... what’s the matter?"

She was still a bit dazed.

Sterling Norwood glanced at the dense annotations on her notebook and sighed silently, "It’s almost dinnertime, what do you want to eat?"

Selena Kensington shook her head slightly and checked the time on her phone.

It was almost 5 o’clock.

She stood up, took Sterling Norwood’s hand, and said, "How about getting off work a bit earlier today..."

Her voice was soft and coy, with an unconscious hint of reliance and playfulness.

Making Sterling Norwood’s heart tremble.

"...Alright."

He replied in a slightly husky voice.

"Shall we go to the supermarket? I want to buy some groceries..." Selena Kensington stuck out her tongue slightly and pleaded softly.

Sterling Norwood reached out to tidy her slightly messy hair, "Why not tell the butler what you want to buy?"

Selena Kensington shook her head, "Where’s the fun in that? Couples all go grocery shopping together..."

And... the snacks she wanted to buy wouldn’t be considered healthy by the butler.

He would definitely persuade her in a ’Madam, for the sake of your health’ tone.

Selena Kensington didn’t want to give up her snacks.

But with Sterling Norwood around, it might be different; a bit of charm and softness would surely sway him in her favor!

Perhaps what Selena Kensington said moved Sterling Norwood; laughter entered his eyes, "Alright, whatever you want."

So, Sterling Norwood naturally delegated his work to Silvester Norwood.

Under Silvester Norwood’s helpless gaze, he left The Imperial Building with Selena Kensington.

Sterling Norwood led Selena Kensington by the hand in front, and she smiled, asking him, "Don’t work Silvester too hard, otherwise Grandpa will worry about them not finding wives."

Listening to his wife’s words, Sterling Norwood thought seriously for a moment, "Then... should I arrange a matchmaking banquet for them?"

"Pfft! Hahahahaha..."

Selena Kensington couldn’t help but burst out laughing.

If Sterling Norwood really did that, Silvester Norwood and Spencer Norwood would probably shut themselves off.

Sterling Norwood soon drove them to a large nearby supermarket chain.

He parked the car and was just about to get out when Selena Kensington grabbed his wrist.

She took a black mask from her bag and handed it to Sterling Norwood.

"Um... just to be safe, let’s put these on."

She didn’t want to be recognized while shopping with her husband.

A rare opportunity, Selena Kensington didn’t want to be surrounded by onlookers.

Sterling Norwood obediently put on the mask.
