Reborn as the Sweetheart of a Paranoid Boss-Chapter 589: Proposal 3: The Starry River in Your Eyes
Let Selena Kensington pounce on him.
Fortunately, beneath their feet was a soft grassland.
Selena Kensington tackled Sterling Norwood onto the grass.
Her eyes were incredibly bright, her face flushed with embarrassment.
"I...of course, I’m willing!"
Afterward, seeming afraid to meet Sterling Norwood’s gaze, she directly lowered her head and kissed Sterling Norwood’s lips.
Sterling Norwood was taken aback, then an irrepressible smile spilled from the corners of his mouth.
He held Selena Kensington’s waist with both hands, deepening the kiss.
Lips and teeth intertwined, creating an ambiguous sound of wetness.
Carrying a sense of lingering tenderness and entanglement.
The creatures standing by seemed to sense The Beast Lord’s joy at that moment, all voicing their responses.
’Awoo!~’
...
The fireflies surrounding them danced and fluttered even more joyfully.
This seemed to be the culmination of a grand, sacred, devout ceremony.
All these creatures were cheering for the ceremony’s outcome.
As the kiss ended, Selena Kensington buried her head against Sterling Norwood’s neck.
Her face and behind her ears were flushed with a shade of red, she didn’t dare to look at Sterling Norwood’s expression at that moment.
Sterling Norwood let out a muffled laugh.
Selena Kensington could clearly feel the tremor emanating from his chest.
She dared even less to look up at Sterling Norwood.
Sterling Norwood held Selena Kensington with one hand, the other bracing on the ground, lifting himself up.
"Shy?"
He asked in what seemed like a teasing manner.
The tone carried a lingering, seductive charm.
Selena Kensington became even more embarrassed.
Hearing Sterling Norwood’s mocking tone, she seemed slightly displeased.
She bit Sterling Norwood’s neck.
"Humph."
Selena Kensington softly snorted.
Perhaps in retaliation for Sterling Norwood’s teasing just now.
Sterling Norwood soothingly stroked her hair. "Alright, I won’t tease you anymore."
"Does this mean my proposal was successful?"
Sterling Norwood lowered his head, rubbing his cheek against Selena Kensington’s.
Selena Kensington replied in a huff, "I’m thinking of backing out now, is that okay?"
Sterling Norwood’s hand on Selena Kensington’s waist suddenly tightened, a dangerous glint flashing in his eyes.
"No."
His tone carried an unquestionable authority.
Selena Kensington immediately laughed, "Then why did you ask!"
Sterling Norwood lowered his head, gazing into Selena Kensington’s eyes.
He kissed her forehead several times, "I just still find it a bit unreal..."
Selena Kensington murmured a few sounds and stood up from Sterling Norwood.
"Get up, I’m starving."
Upon hearing Selena Kensington say she was hungry, Sterling Norwood did not delay any longer.
He stood up.
Selena Kensington deftly maneuvered behind him, "Carry me."
Her tone was entirely justified.
Her demeanor fully resembled that of a pampered princess.
Sterling Norwood’s lips curved slightly.
He carried Selena Kensington on his back.
Then he walked into the woods.
As they left, all those creatures yielded a path.
And those fireflies eagerly flew into the forest, seemingly wanting to pave a luminous road for them.
As all the fireflies poured into the forest, it seemed to awaken.
Bright, silent.
After Sterling Norwood carried Selena Kensington into the forest, those creatures did not leave.
They followed behind the pair, seemingly wanting to respectfully send them off.
Selena Kensington could clearly see the path ahead, as on both sides was a large swarm of fireflies.
They paved a road.
"This Glimmerwood is truly beautiful..."
Selena Kensington lay on Sterling Norwood’s back, slightly raised one hand, opening her palm.
A few luminous fireflies danced and flickered in her palm.
Incredibly gentle.
"Anytime you want to see, I’ll bring you here."
Sterling Norwood spoke ahead.
Selena Kensington gently shook her head, "Let’s leave it at that, it’s enough to see it occasionally. Seeing too much won’t feel special."
"Besides, disturbing these creatures’ rest wouldn’t be good either."
Those creatures departed when Selena Kensington and Sterling Norwood exited the forest’s entrance.
Selena Kensington gazed at the groups of departing creatures and the bright, fluttering fireflies within the forest.
Her heart felt a bit emotional.
Unbelievable that she just experienced such a magical event.
Creatures in the forest worshipping, hundreds and thousands of fireflies creating a Glimmerwood.
It seemed like something only achievable in dreams.
Yet these events just genuinely happened.
After that, Selena Kensington and Sterling Norwood returned to the main residence.
Upon entering the main residence, she discovered yet another surprise awaited her inside.
A romantic candlelit dinner.
Selena Kensington excitedly looked towards Sterling Norwood, who followed in, "How many surprises have you prepared?"
Sterling Norwood slightly raised his eyebrows, not answering Selena Kensington’s question.
As Selena Kensington and Sterling Norwood took their seats, servants from the main residence brought the food.
Once everything was set, the butler slightly bowed, "Family Head, Madam, please enjoy."
The butler then led the dining room’s servants out of the room.
Instantly, only Sterling Norwood and Selena Kensington remained in the dining room.
Selena Kensington looked at the delicious food on the table, her appetite temptingly high.
But suddenly she remembered something, rapidly raised her head.
"Ah!"
"I almost forgot!"
Sterling Norwood hadn’t yet had time to ask what was wrong before seeing Selena Kensington hastily standing from her seat.
She then ran towards the kitchen.
"..."
Sterling Norwood could only wait for Selena Kensington to return.
After a while, Selena Kensington appeared.
She was carrying something in her hand.
Seeing what Selena Kensington was carrying, Sterling Norwood’s eyes flashed with a hint of amusement.
Selena Kensington placed the cake beside them.
Then she returned to her seat and sat down.
"Scared me, I almost forgot."
"This is my entire day’s work!"
Speaking of the cake, Selena Kensington seemed very confident.
Along with this, her expression also became more animated.
Sterling Norwood was surprised, his look softened even more.
"Did you learn to make a cake today?"
Sterling Norwood asked.
Selena Kensington nodded while stuffing a piece of meat into her mouth.
"Yes, take a look at my accomplishment today!"
She hadn’t had lunch or dinner, was starving.
Thus, even faced with a candlelit dinner, Selena Kensington tackled the food directly and thoroughly.
Sterling Norwood had an expression of anticipation and surprise.
He reached out and untied the restraints on the cake box, lifting the cake out.
On the cake was a galaxy, with a deep blue starry sky as the main color.
For this piece of galaxy, Selena Kensington unknowingly failed countless times.
But fortunately, the final result didn’t disappoint her.
Selena Kensington’s movements on her mouth paused, gazed at the galaxy cake, then looked at Sterling Norwood.
"Do you like it?"
"Ever since I fell into your eyes, I felt this galaxy certainly matches you."
Sterling Norwood’s gaze was fixed tightly on that galaxy.
The corners of his mouth couldn’t help but lift slightly.
