Reborn as the Sweetheart of a Paranoid Boss-Chapter 481 - 480: Women Who Act Cute Have the Best Luck

Chapter 481: Chapter 480: Women Who Act Cute Have the Best Luck

Hearing the vendor say this, Sloane Hawthorne and Selena Kensington didn’t have the heart to refuse.

So they accepted it.

"Thank you."

Afterward, they left the stall.

"Sloane, can you keep shopping?"

Selena Kensington asked Sloane Hawthorne who was beside her.

After wandering around, she didn’t feel much fatigue.

Sloane Hawthorne nodded, "I’m fine, what about you, sis."

Selena Kensington smiled, "I’m fine too, let’s keep shopping!"

"Alright!"

Then the two continued shopping.

"..."

Behind them, two men exchanged glances.

Ultimately, they had no choice but to follow along.

After all, they had no say.

It wasn’t until after six o’clock that Selena Kensington and Sloane Hawthorne finished buying what they needed.

She glanced at the things Sterling Norwood was carrying and felt it was about time.

Just as Selena Kensington was about to speak to Sloane Hawthorne, she noticed many vendors around starting to pack up.

But some vendors were bringing out more shelves, tables, and grills...

Selena Kensington was a bit surprised, "This place turns into a night market at night?"

Sloane Hawthorne nodded beside her, "Yes, recently it’s been selling New Year’s goods during the day and turning into a night market at night."

Hearing Sloane Hawthorne say this, Selena Kensington showed some interest.

She hadn’t been to street stalls for skewers in a long time.

The last time she had skewers seemed to be back in sophomore year with Vivian Sutton and Clement Luther at a barbecue stall near the school.

Selena Kensington tugged at Sterling Norwood’s sleeve, "Sterling, we..."

Her eyes filled with anticipation and longing as she looked at Sterling Norwood.

Sterling Norwood ignored the longing in her eyes, "Let’s go back to eat, your stomach isn’t good, you can’t eat these."

In Sterling Norwood’s view, the barbecue wasn’t good for Selena Kensington’s stomach.

How could he possibly let her have skewers at the barbecue stall?

Selena Kensington poutily protested, "Just a little... I ate before, and nothing happened?"

Selena Kensington was like this, once she decided on something, unless she herself no longer wanted to do it, even Sterling Norwood couldn’t change her mind.

Sterling Norwood felt a headache seeing Selena Kensington’s expression, especially with Silas Sinclair looking contemptuously from the side, as if saying he couldn’t even manage his wife.

Selena Kensington saw Sterling Norwood silent, and steeled her resolve.

She turned to Sloane Hawthorne beside her, "Sloane, want to go for skewers?"

Sloane Hawthorne cautiously glanced at Sterling Norwood.

When she met Sterling Norwood’s darkened expression, she instinctively wanted to refuse Selena Kensington’s invitation.

But before she could speak, Selena Kensington grabbed and pulled her along.

"Hey, don’t mind him!"

"..."

Sloane Hawthorne had no choice but to follow Selena Kensington.

She didn’t dare glance at Sterling Norwood’s expression behind them.

Could only pray in her heart that Sterling Norwood wouldn’t hold it against her.

Sterling Norwood watched as Selena Kensington directly took Sloane Hawthorne away, his face turned dark.

Beside him, Silas Sinclair gloated, "Cousin, didn’t expect you’d have a day like this."

Hit a wall, huh?

See if he still shows off in front of him!

Silas Sinclair was undeterred by the cold aura emanating from Sterling Norwood, remaining calm beside him.

However, he saw Sloane Hawthorne also pulled away by Selena Kensington.

He glanced at Sterling Norwood and prepared to follow, "You’re not going? Then I’ll go."

"..."

Sterling Norwood had no choice but to follow.

Selena Kensington was unusually stubborn at that moment, and he couldn’t possibly do anything to her, not even harsh words.

So he had no choice but to go along with her.

At worst, he’d just pay extra attention later.

While Selena Kensington, who had directly pulled Sloane Hawthorne along, slowed her pace after walking a bit.

Seemingly waiting for those behind them.

Sloane Hawthorne glanced at the expression on Selena Kensington’s face, appearing to observe Sterling Norwood’s actions.

Once she saw Sterling Norwood move, she slightly relaxed.

Sloane Hawthorne looked at her and smiled, "Sis, since you care so much about Patriarch Norwood, why not talk to him nicely?"

Selena Kensington shrugged helplessly, "In this matter, I have to be more stubborn than him to resolve it."

Otherwise, if Sterling Norwood keeps silent, and Selena Kensington remains unyielding.

Things would continue to be stalemated.

So she acted first, forcing Sterling Norwood to compromise no matter how stubborn he was.

Noticing the approaching footsteps, Selena Kensington’s lips curled into a smile.

She released Sloane Hawthorne’s arm and turned to hold Sterling Norwood’s arm.

"Sterling..."

She skillfully acted cute.

Showing that she had done it many times before.

Her soft, sweet voice quickly dissipated Sterling Norwood’s rising irritability.

Then Selena Kensington continued, "I’m just being greedy.... Just a little bit, okay?"

Selena Kensington couldn’t restrain her appetite; she really wanted skewers.

If she didn’t manage to taste them today, she’d keep thinking about it, losing motivation even for other tasks.

Sterling Norwood heard Selena Kensington’s words and reluctantly thought, "Just a little bit."

Seeing Sterling Norwood like this, Selena Kensington knew he had calmed down.

Selena Kensington had an aptitude for silencing him first and then giving him some sweetness.

Upon hearing his words, she stood on tiptoe to give Sterling Norwood a kiss.

"Love you, hubby!"

While they talked, they arrived at the barbecue stall.

"You have four people? You can sit here..."

The vendor immediately greeted them, inviting them to sit.

Once all four sat down, Selena Kensington looked at Sloane Hawthorne, "Sloane, want to go with me to see what’s cooking?"

Sloane Hawthorne paused, glanced at Sterling Norwood, and finally refused, "No, you and Patriarch Norwood go."

"Alright then."

Selena Kensington nodded slightly.

She then happily took Sterling Norwood’s arm to order.

Once Selena Kensington and Sterling Norwood left, Sloane Hawthorne’s smile faded instantly.

Her gaze turned calm.

She lowered her head, playing on her phone, seemingly oblivious to Silas Sinclair’s presence.

"..."

Completely ignored, Silas Sinclair, not having a word with Sloane Hawthorne today, felt very uneasy.

Only Sloane Hawthorne dared to ignore him like this. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

"You’re really not going to pay attention to me?"

Silas Sinclair asked.

Sloane Hawthorne didn’t reply, still focused on her phone.

Again ignored, Silas Sinclair felt increasingly irritated.

He thought if the person in question was Sloane Hawthorne, and if he was as natural in acting cute as Selena Kensington with Sterling Norwood, how nice that would be...

With such thoughts, a sense of heat rose within Silas Sinclair.

But he knew deep down.

Sloane Hawthorne would never act cute with him.

At least in Silas Sinclair’s understanding, Sloane Hawthorne only appeared obedient and soft when facing Selena Kensington.

Entirely polar opposites when dealing with him.

"You’re not still upset about that earlier conversation, are you? I apologize; it was truly my fault that time."

Silas Sinclair thought back, unsure where he had offended Sloane Hawthorne.
