Reborn as the Sweetheart of a Paranoid Boss-Chapter 290: Forced to Save Face
Under the night sky, the expression on the man’s face made her find him especially alluring tonight.
She felt a surge of emotion within her.
Her body moved instinctively.
She sat on Sterling Norwood’s lap.
Looking into his deep and mysterious eyes, Selena Kensington bit her lip.
She lowered her head and gently kissed the corner of his eye.
She could even feel his lightly trembling eyelashes brush against her lips.
"Am I... acting a bit like a rogue..."
Selena slowly lifted her head, a face full of embarrassment.
She didn’t know what possessed her to suddenly act like this...
Hmm! It was her husband’s beauty that was too tempting!
She couldn’t be blamed!
Selena made excuses for herself internally.
Selena had seen many attractive stars in the entertainment industry, but at most, she only ever sighed without any further ripples in her heart.
Any beauty paled in comparison in front of Sterling Norwood.
Every part of him seemed to be crafted perfectly to her preferences.
Perfectly aligning with her tastes.
Selena watched him swallow, and looking at his Adam’s apple move, she thought it was damn sexy!
She was truly hopeless...
"No, it’s very cute..."
Selena was about to speak, but suddenly realized something.
She widened her eyes, "You..."

Finally, with Selena’s face flushed red, Sterling Norwood carried her off the helicopter.

Selena woke up, and it was already the next day.
Thinking about the events of yesterday, she couldn’t help but blush again.
When Sterling Norwood walked in, he saw such a scene.
His wife sat up and pulled her legs up.
She held the quilt, her face still shy and dazed.
When Selena saw Sterling Norwood come in, she instinctively fell onto the bed and covered herself entirely with the quilt.
Sterling Norwood chuckled lightly.
Hearing that light laugh made her even more embarrassed.
Sterling Norwood came over and lifted the quilt.
What he saw was Selena blinking and blushing as she looked at him.
"Why is your face red?"
Sterling Norwood asked her with a smile.
Selena paused for a moment, forcefully trying to save face, "It’s the quilt!"
Sterling Norwood didn’t expose her lie; he even went along with her words, saying, "Hmm, you covered yourself completely with the quilt."
"..."
Selena was speechless at his words.
It seemed impossible to refute...
"Are you hungry? Get up and have breakfast."
Sterling Norwood did not tease her further.
"Did Ah Sing and Lea Dutton come back?"
While putting on her shoes, Selena asked Sterling Norwood.
"They’ll arrive at noon."
"Be careful."
Sterling Norwood’s brows showed some helplessness, watching Selena nimbly hop here and there despite wearing high heels, he truly couldn’t feel at ease...
Selena stuck out her tongue, "Yeah, yeah."

When Selena went downstairs, she saw Saul Norwood sitting on the sofa.
Selena went over, "Grandfather, why did you come back?"
She remembered that Saul Norwood was always traveling and rarely returned to the main house.
"Selie, were you frightened?"
Saul Norwood had already heard from Sterling Norwood about what happened yesterday.
He was very angry about the incident and also realized that Selena’s presence as Lady Norwood was still too weak.
After all, besides the initial announcement, the Norwood Family had not done any further publicity.
Firstly, because Sterling Norwood’s existence had always been mysterious, and secondly, because Selena also wanted to keep a low profile.
This led to some people far from Aethelgard not being aware of it.
Selena smiled and shook her head, "Grandfather, I’m fine."
Saul Norwood studied Selena earnestly and seeing her fresh complexion, he finally felt a bit relieved.
He glared at Sterling Norwood behind Selena, "How could you let your wife be in danger, you brat!"
