Reborn as the Sweetheart of a Paranoid Boss-Chapter 69: You Are Mine

Without saying a word, she was pulled aside.

"Do you know where Finn Norwood went?!" The young girl hurriedly asked.

"?" Selena Kensington was a bit puzzled.

How come even Phoebe Osborne couldn’t find Finn?

Seeing Selena’s expression, Phoebe realized she also didn’t know where Finn had gone.

"This is bad, something must have happened."

Phoebe was quite anxious; previously, even with Finn’s antics, it was never like this where he couldn’t be contacted for long...

Selena comforted her, "Maybe it’s some family matter; no one in Aethelgard would dare take Finn away..."

Phoebe paused.

Indeed, Finn was part of the Norwood family.

Who in Aethelgard would have the guts to go against the Norwood family?

The panic in her heart calmed down a bit.

Phoebe lifted her chin slightly, "I won’t be thanking you!"

Selena chuckled helplessly, "No need, I happen to have business with him too."

Phoebe frowned, "Are you talking about the forum incident? That wasn’t me, I’m not that bored!"

Phoebe had received a proper noble education, her upbringing prevented her from engaging in such gossip behind people’s backs.

Such acts, in the eyes of true nobles, were most disgraceful.

Selena smiled gently, "Of course I know it wasn’t you."

Now it was Phoebe’s turn to be curious, this woman seemed different from what was said about her...

"How can you be so sure? I just troubled you yesterday."

"Your gaze is pure, and your presence is comforting. Not like average people." Selena replied.

Phoebe’s face, uncontrollably, turned slightly red, Why was this woman praising her!

"I won’t lessen my hostility towards you! We are love rivals!"

Selena chuckled helplessly, "I’m not your love rival."

Saying that, she took out a necklace hidden in her clothes.

"See? It’s a wedding ring."

Phoebe’s eyes widened in shock, "You’re married?!"

Why hadn’t those two ever told her?!

Selena showed it to her briefly and then put it away. Facing Phoebe’s complex gaze, she continued, "Your real rival should be the person who speaks ill of me to you."

"Rosalind Blanchett?!" Phoebe was somewhat incredulous.

Then she scoffed, "You think I’d believe you?!"

Yet her tone showed some uncertainty.

Selena didn’t expect her to believe it, shrugged, "You can investigate it yourself, I believe you’ll find what you want." 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

After all, Rosalind openly sought to please Finn, plus she always assumed her backer was Finn.

That’s why she wanted to use Phoebe to deal with her.

Unfortunately... her plan was indeed perfect, rumors could easily destroy a girl.

But she forgot about Selena, the biggest variable.

As she couldn’t find Finn in the afternoon and Hugh had matters at school, Selena returned alone.

By after seven in the evening, the northern sky had already darkened.

Selena parked the car.

And entered the elevator.

Walking out of the elevator, Selena opened the door, instinctively reaching to turn on the light.

But felt the presence of someone in the dark.

"Who’s there?!" Selena called out warily.

A scorching presence approached, a man grasped her hands, positioning them behind her back.

Pushed her entirely against the door.

Feeling that familiar presence, Selena relaxed her guard.

But in the next second, she sensed something strange.

Sterling Norwood’s aura seemed off, carrying a faint scent of blood...

"...Husband?" Selena called tentatively.

"You’re mine." He murmured beside her face, his breath hot and tangled.
