Reborn as the Sweetheart of a Paranoid Boss-Chapter 327: Gift

Even just saying these two words carried an unusual hoarseness.

Meeting Samuel Dalton overseas, Selena Kensington was delighted.

After all, she really regarded Samuel Dalton with the same status as Hugh Kensington.

But what followed was worry, because she did not know the specific time and place of Samuel Dalton’s fate in his past life.

How to avoid Samuel Dalton’s fate from the past life was something that worried Selena Kensington.

"Ayan, how come you’re here? Do you know you have been away from Aethelgard for more than six months..."

As Selena Kensington poured out a long string of words, Samuel Dalton not only didn’t feel impatient but was eager to hear more.

Selena Kensington paused, raised the mask in her hand, "Are you with the Colombo Family?"

Samuel Dalton didn’t hide anything from her, or rather, he was very willing to tell Selena Kensington everything.

"I am the heir of the Colombo Family, Alessio Colombo."

Selena Kensington’s eyes widened slightly upon hearing Samuel Dalton acknowledge that he was the heir, still a bit surprised.

"Then Mrs. Anna is your..."

Samuel Dalton nodded, "She is my biological mother."

"My mother met my father when she was young, they fell in love and had me. Later, their feelings gradually faded, and my mother left Aethelgard for the family’s business."

Several years after Mrs. Anna left, she suddenly realized she had wronged her son.

She sent her people back to protect Samuel Dalton.

But by that time, Samuel Dalton had his own thoughts, his own ideas.

Mrs. Anna did not force him, saying that as long as he was willing to return, the Colombo was still his.

"After I returned, I spent considerable effort dealing with those in the family who opposed me, and then focused on consolidating my position and power, eliminating enemies."

"So I haven’t returned, made you worry, I’m sorry, sister."

When he said these words, he was very serious, and his mannerism showed no transgressions.

Only then did Selena Kensington relax, it seemed Samuel Dalton truly regarded her as his sister.

"It’s good that you’re alright."

Selena Kensington smiled lightly.

Samuel Dalton’s eyes softened, "Sister, how did you end up here?"

"Hmm? I’m traveling abroad with my husband to celebrate our first wedding anniversary."

"..."

The words Samuel Dalton wanted to say were stuck in his throat, his facial expression froze.

He almost couldn’t maintain the present appearance.

So... she came with her lover.

Indeed, if it wasn’t like this, how could he have met her here?

Samuel Dalton controlled his emotions, preventing him from losing control in front of Selena Kensington.

He forced a smile that looked worse than crying, "Really? Congratulations, sister, the Gorgeous Award ceremony before was very impressive."

"Did you watch it? As expected of my good brother."

Selena Kensington’s smile deepened.

Samuel Dalton’s smile was somewhat bitter, he ’hmm’ softly.

He took out a black velvet gift box he had prepared long ago from behind him, "This...is the birthday gift I prepared for sister earlier."

"What is it?"

Selena Kensington didn’t accept it immediately but asked a question first.

Samuel Dalton was silent for a moment, then opened the gift box.

Inside lay a pristine thorny rose brooch.

Small, exquisite, with thorns spreading along the stem under the rose.

"It’s not a very expensive gift...it’s a keepsake, I hope sister will like it."

With an expectant look in his eyes, he gazed at Selena Kensington.

A brooch, huh...

Selena Kensington remembered the identical flower engraved on his mask.

"This flower..."

Selena Kensington asked.

"It’s a thorny rose."

Samuel Dalton explained to her.

"Very beautiful."

Selena Kensington praised and then accepted it.
