Reborn as the Sweetheart of a Paranoid Boss-Chapter 574: Graduation Ceremony 1

Selena Kensington leaned close, wrapping both arms around Sterling Norwood’s arm, snuggling beside him.

"Vivian and Clement are graduating, I’ll make a trip back too."

To make up for the graduation ceremony she couldn’t attend.

"Alright."

Sterling responded softly, a glimmer in his eyes.

*

When the weekend arrived, Sterling took Selena to Aethelgard Media University.

After getting off at Aethelgard Media University, Selena poked her head through the car window, "Will you pick me up later?"

"I will."

Sterling answered her warmly.

After receiving Sterling’s response, Selena turned around with a smile and went to find Vivian Sutton.

"Where are you?"

Selena was on the phone with Vivian.

"I’m in my usual dance practice room, hurry over."

Vivian’s voice chimed.

"Got it."

After replying to Vivian, Selena hung up the phone.

She headed to the location Vivian mentioned.

When Selena arrived at the dance practice room, the door was open inward.

Selena walked in.

But didn’t see Vivian.

"Vivian?"

Selena tried calling out.

"Surprise!!!"

Vivian suddenly popped out from behind the door.

Selena was startled by her sudden noise.

"You almost scared me to death!"

Selena rolled her eyes in mock annoyance.

"Tsk tsk."

Vivian was wearing her graduation gown, looking very spirited.

She twirled in front of Selena, "How do I look? Nice, right?"

Selena nodded, "Nice."

Vivian blinked, "Don’t be sad, there’s one for you too." 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

Hearing Vivian’s words, Selena was somewhat surprised, "There’s one for me?"

Vivian nodded, "Yes, Heath personally delivered it."

Previously, Heath Hayes had regrets because his student couldn’t attend her graduation ceremony.

Earlier, when Vivian bumped into Heath on campus, they chatted for a while.

She also happened to mention that Selena would return for the graduation ceremony to Heath.

A few days later, Heath delivered the graduation gown belonging to Selena.

Listening to Vivian’s words, warmth filled Selena’s heart.

Afterwards, Vivian brought over Selena’s graduation gown.

"Put it on quickly."

"Okay."

Selena nodded, and then changed into the gown.

Once she was dressed, Vivian linked arms with Selena and pulled her outside, "Let’s go to the grand hall, Clement must be getting impatient."

Selena chuckled, "Do you think he’d dare?"

Vivian raised her eyebrows with a smile, "Indeed, he wouldn’t dare."

In front of the grand hall lay an artificial lake, flanked by grassy lawns and willows.

When Selena and Vivian went over, there were already quite a few graduates in gowns taking pictures there.

"Let’s wait until after the ceremony for photos, it’s about to start."

Selena glanced quickly at the scene and was dragged into the grand hall by Vivian.

Fortunately, the hall was filled with graduates in gowns.

Selena and Vivian’s entrance went unnoticed.

Vivian entered, searching for Clement Luther.

Seeing Clement in the front row, she muttered, "Why so far ahead?"

Then pulled Selena over.

"You two finally made it,"

As soon as Vivian and Selena sat down, Clement exclaimed helplessly.

Vivian rolled her eyes, "I knew you’d be impatient."

"Not at all, I’m delighted."

Seeing Vivian’s comment, Clement quickly changed his tune.

Selena chuckled beside them.

She glanced sideways and noticed the fan camera Clement was holding.

She raised an eyebrow at Vivian, "You brought the pinkster?"

Pinkster was Vivian’s favorite camera, used specifically for taking group photos.

Vivian nodded, "Of course, this is our graduation ceremony, it has to be special!"

"After the ceremony, we must take lots of pictures!"

Vivian said, and the three exchanged smiles.

Their long-lasting friendship meant they understood each other well.

A mere hint was enough to grasp the upcoming intentions.

Realizing that Vivian and Clement were graduating, Selena felt a bit sentimental.

Once they graduated, they really would go their separate ways.

After a while, a leader from Aethelgard Media came onto the stage.

"Welcome everyone to this year’s graduation ceremony."

With those words, the hall erupted in applause.

Afterwards, the leader gave a brief opening speech, accompanied by sporadic applause.

Selena glanced at the expressions of the graduates next to her: excitement, reluctance, anticipation...

Various emotions were displayed on their faces.

Yet at this moment, no doubt, they were joyous.

"Next, we’ll proceed to this year’s outstanding student degree conferral ceremony."

As the opening speech concluded, they proceeded to a significant segment of the graduation ceremony.

The conferral of degrees.

Since the number of graduates is quite large each year, the ceremony only selects a few outstanding representative students for degree conferral, while the others receive theirs from their schools.

When the leader finished speaking, the audience erupted in applause again.

Selena could even hear people around her whispering.

"School of Communications, Journalism Department, Cheng Jiang..."

After a while, the degree conferral ceremony officially began.

One by one, the named outstanding students ascended the stage, receiving their degrees from a school leader or their mentor.

After a while.

"Academy of Arts, Performance Department, Vivian Sutton..."

"The School of Economics, Finance Department, Clement Luther..."

When Selena heard the names of the two people, she quickly looked towards them.

"Ah, it’s our turn!"

Vivian whispered, her tone revealing unavoidable excitement and nervousness.

Selena took the camera, "Don’t worry, go ahead, I’ll take photos of you two from below."

"Make sure you capture me beautifully!"

"Got it, got it, hurry along."

Selena giggled, gently pushing Vivian out of her seat.

Afterwards, she picked up the camera, ready to capture Vivian and Clement during the degree conferral.

’Click’, ’Click’...

Selena snapped several photos of the pair standing together.

Vivian and Clement were considered one of the more well-known couples among their peers on campus.

Watching them together on stage, and embracing after receiving their degrees.

It stirred quite a commotion below.

Afterwards, Vivian and Clement descended from the stage.

As soon as Vivian returned to her seat, she eagerly leaned over.

"Did you take them, did you take them?!"

Selena laughed and handed the camera back to her, "I did, I did."

"You’re the star of the show!"

Vivian gleefully admired the photos Selena had just taken.

The degree conferral ceremony on stage continued.

After watching for a while.

The voice on stage announced, "Next is the last outstanding student degree conferral."
