Reborn as the Sweetheart of a Paranoid Boss-Chapter 567: Your Coming Is the Surprise

"Ma...madam!"

"Wishing your new film ’Butterfly Flame’ a huge success!"

Selena Kensington paused and smiled at her, "Thank you for your kind words."

The employee couldn’t help but say, "The CEO really spoils you, doesn’t he? On the day of your film’s release, every employee in The Imperial Building gets a chance to watch your movie during working hours."

Plus, this time is considered as work.

And all expenses are covered by The Imperial.

Selena was taken aback.

She then understood why the employees looked at her with such eagerness when she came in; it was all because of this.

The Imperial Building has thousands of employees.

Yet Sterling Norwood promised them that on the premiere day, they could choose any time slot to watch the film.

And all costs would be covered.

You have to know, within The Imperial, tasks are clearly divided. Delaying work for these reasons might result in a significant loss of revenue.

Selena’s lips couldn’t help but curve upwards, "Thank you for telling me this."

Selena expressed her sincere thanks to the employee.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t have known that Sterling had done something nice in secret without telling her.

The employee was startled, then realized that Sterling hadn’t informed Selena about this.

She felt a bit regretful, "Ah, I hope I didn’t ruin the CEO’s plan by speaking up..."

In the employee’s mind, Sterling hadn’t told Selena to give her a surprise.

But now, because of her blabbing, Sterling’s plan was foiled.

Selena blinked, "Don’t worry, I’ll keep your secret."

"This matter is only known between the two of us."

The employee’s face immediately beamed with joy, "Thank you, madam!"

After chatting with the employee for a while, Selena took the elevator upstairs.

*

The elevator doors opened on the floor where Sterling’s office was.

Selena walked out.

She went straight to Sterling’s office.

She noticed that the office door was ajar, not fully closed.

So she just went in.

"Knock knock knock..."

Selena barged in, originally intending to surprise Sterling, but then she found that he wasn’t there.

She immediately hid her expression and walked over to take a look at the desk.

There were no documents on the desk, so Sterling was probably in a meeting.

Selena wandered around the office for a while.

Thinking about when Sterling would return, she planned to give him a good surprise.

Selena glanced around the office decor.

Sterling’s office was extremely spacious and very tidy.

Only the necessary office furniture and equipment were present.

Selena circled the room but didn’t find a place to hide anyone.

Her eyes suddenly landed on the curtain by the floor-to-ceiling window, and her eyes lit up.

Because the window was wide enough, the curtain was also very heavy.

Plus, Selena had a slender figure, so hiding inside wouldn’t be noticed.

She made up her mind and ran over to the curtain.

Selena hid behind the curtain, ensuring no part of her was exposed, then relaxed and waited for Sterling to return.

Sterling didn’t make Selena wait long.

After hiding behind the curtain for just a bit, Selena heard the office door open.

She then heard steady footsteps.

But the next second, the clear footsteps suddenly disappeared.

At that moment, Selena felt an intense, sharp aura from Sterling sweeping over.

She immediately realized something was wrong.

Sterling had mistaken her for a burglar breaking into his office!

Just as Sterling quickly approached the curtain, ready to draw it back to see who had broken into his office.

The next second, he heard Selena’s hurried voice, "Sterling, it’s me!"

Sterling instinctively calmed his sharp aura and froze on the spot.

After a few seconds, he pulled back the heavy curtain with a helpless expression.

Once the curtain was drawn, he saw Selena hiding behind it, her hair slightly tousled.

Since Selena had been behind the curtain for a few minutes, her face was a bit flushed.

Sterling was a little exasperated, wondering what new prank his wife was playing.

"Why were you hiding here?"

Sterling led Selena out, carefully tidying her tousled hair.

Selena sighed slightly in relief.

Luckily, she spoke up in time, or Sterling would have mistaken her for an intruder!

Remembering how her planned surprise was ruined, Selena couldn’t help but grumble, "I was going to surprise you..."

Who knew Sterling would be so vigilant!

Sterling laughed, his subconscious survival instinct telling him not to mention what he had just seen to his wife.

Sterling was very familiar with the layout of his office.

When he came in, he noticed a slight movement behind the curtain.

Like a cat.

"My bad."

Sterling willingly took the blame for what had just happened.

Then he added.

"Your visit is a surprise in itself."

With Sterling’s words, the little annoyance in Selena’s heart naturally vanished.

"Tsk..."

"Mr. Norwood, you really like doing good deeds quietly, don’t you?"

When Sterling brought Selena to his desk, Selena simply sat on it.

And Sterling sat in his chair.

Selena looked down slightly at Sterling sitting in the office chair and smiled as she spoke.

Sterling raised an eyebrow slightly and then realized that Selena was already aware of his arrangements.

"Just a small matter, not something you need to know."

To Sterling, these were just matters he arranged, not requiring Selena’s knowledge.

Selena chuckled lightly, "But... even if it’s a small thing, if it’s about you, I want to know."

With this sentence, Selena once again altered Sterling’s principles.

He nodded, "Alright."

After this, Selena got off Sterling’s desk and circled it once more before standing in front of it.

Both hands propped on the desk, "But, you and your cousin are being a bit childish, aren’t you?"

"Such grown-ups, yet still engaging in competitions."

Talking about Silas Sinclair, Sterling slightly frowned, "That guy acts like getting a girlfriend means he needs to flaunt all the affection he missed out on."

After the ’Butterfly Flame’ trailer aired on the large screen of The Imperial, Silas sent a message asking Sterling to check his social media.

Sterling ignored him at that time.

Later, Silas directly sent a screenshot of his social media content to Sterling.

"..."

Sterling was momentarily speechless when he saw it.

"Pfft!"

Hearing Sterling’s words, Selena couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

"Hahahahahaha..."
