Reborn as the Sweetheart of a Paranoid Boss-Chapter 46: She Does Not Fear This Kind of Love
Such selfless behavior was merely to keep her from leaving.
Selena wasn’t sure if she could reciprocate such deep affection, which is why she hesitated.
Yes, deep affection.
If the average person heard such words, they might feel he loved too extremely, too intensely, too frighteningly, and want to flee from him.
But Selena was different; she wasn’t afraid of such emotions.
In her past life, she’d witnessed all sorts of dark events, even tried them, her heart had already decayed.
Living anew, Selena often felt the psychological shadows from before her suicide still subtly affected her.
To her, the love of ordinary people was no longer suitable.
Selena said nothing, merely tightened her grip on Sterling’s shirt.
Sterling didn’t expect her to respond.
When the ferris wheel returned to the beginning, Selena didn’t see Vivian and Clement, and the two of them left first.
Because Selena had classes the next day, Sterling instructed the chauffeur to drive back to Harmony View Apartments.
The two were silent the whole way, even the chauffeur sensed something amiss.
The chauffeur drove all the way to Harmony View Apartments, "Madam, we’ve arrived."
The chauffeur turned slightly and said.
Selena nodded and opened the car door.
Sterling sat on the other side, immersed in the darkness, making it hard for Selena to see his current expression.
Selena clutched her bag tightly, then with a determined breath, quickly dashed to Sterling’s side and stole a kiss, "Good night!"
Then she got out of the car immediately, closing the door.
"Goodbye, Mr. Chauffeur!" she said and ran off swiftly.
"Goodbye, Madam."
The chauffeur distinctly felt the heavy atmosphere around Sterling gradually lifting, even his expression seemed significantly relaxed.
The chauffeur helplessly shook his head slightly.
Indeed, only the madam had such magic power.
Sterling touched the spot where Selena had kissed him, chuckled softly.
Just like a sneaky cat...

Meanwhile, Selena’s heart raced as she reached the apartment entrance.
Oh my! That was truly terrifying just now! She’s amazing! She deserves 108 likes from herself!
Selena greatly admired her bold act just now.
At the same time, she felt a bit shy.
Opening the door, she found Hugh still on the sofa.
Selena glanced at the time, a little past eight.
Still early.
Thinking about what just happened, Selena felt she urgently needed someone to confide in.
Moreover, she’d always liked to share things with Hugh from childhood to now.
So, Selena took a bag of chips from under the table, planning to have a heart-to-heart with Hugh.
"What’s up, sis?" Hugh looked somewhat bewildered at Selena’s serious expression.
Selena pondered for a moment before saying, "Hugh, you know Stardust Entertainment was left to us by Mom and Dad, but Uncle’s family took it over!"
"I know," Hugh said calmly.
"Oh, you know... wait?! You know???" Selena looked shocked.
Hugh looked at her like she was dumb "If Mom and Dad didn’t leave it to us, who else but Uncle?"
"..." Selena was stunned, not expecting Hugh to have always known.
So in the past life, the fool was only her?!
From the start, the pig teammate was her?
Selena momentarily couldn’t accept this fact.
"How did you know?" Selena asked curiously.
"I’ve always known, sis. You’re way too laid-back, plus I’ve searched, that lawyer who made the will can’t be found anywhere. I didn’t want to see you run around because of this, and I can support you, so I never mentioned it."
Hugh said indifferently.
"..." Really, she’s such a fool.
Selena’s face was complex, never expecting her seemingly naive brother to actually be a hidden expert.
He had figured everything out.
"What if I tell you I’ve found that lawyer?"
"Your man helped you?" Hugh raised an eyebrow slightly surprised but soon stayed calm.
"??? How do you know that again?" Selena was shocked once more.
