Chapter 712: Chapter 712: My Sister Doesn’t Allow Me to Date Early

After all, this is the most important clue they have in their hands right now.

While Sterling Norwood and Silas Sinclair were discussing Zoe Sinclair, Selena Kensington had already moved to Hugh Kensington and Felicity Dalton’s side.

She discreetly glanced at Felicity Dalton’s arm wrapped around Selena Kensington, then quickly looked away.

"I haven’t seen you two in ages."

Selena Kensington raised a smile and said to them.

"Well, you see us now."

Hugh Kensington lazily replied.

However, looking at the expression on Hugh Kensington’s face, it was clear he was happy to see Selena Kensington.

Selena Kensington pretended to look angry and glared at Hugh Kensington, "What kind of attitude is that."

After saying that, she turned to Felicity Dalton, smiling as she spoke, "Quinn, haven’t checked in on you recently. Everything alright?"

Felicity Dalton’s expression remained unchanged, with a hint of a smile on her calm face.

She slightly shook her head, "No worries, sis, you should focus on your baby. I’m doing fine."

Selena Kensington breathed a sigh of relief, "Then I’m reassured."

After checking on Felicity Dalton, Selena Kensington began chatting casually with the two.

As they chatted, Selena Kensington curiously asked Hugh Kensington, "Have you seen Samuel?"

Being asked this by Selena Kensington made Hugh Kensington’s expression a bit complex, but he nodded, "Just saw him."

After all, Samuel Dalton left suddenly back then, and Hugh Kensington was busy with Stardust Entertainment’s affairs, so he didn’t delve into the reasons for his friend’s departure.

Just that Samuel Dalton had returned after a long absence and found his former friend had become his future brother-in-law...

Their initial meeting was awkwardly tense.

"Tsk..."

Seeing the expression on Hugh Kensington’s face, Selena Kensington understood.

She found it amusing and looked at Hugh Kensington.

But as they mentioned Samuel Dalton, he appeared in the banquet hall.

Samuel Dalton had spotted Selena Kensington and Hugh Kensington standing together from upstairs, which prompted him to come down.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have shown up before the dinner officially began.

He understood the inner workings of wealthy aristocrats better than anyone.

Samuel Dalton also belongs to The Dalton Family, and before the old Mr. Dalton officially announces the next Family Head, both Sidney Dalton and Samuel Dalton have a chance.

Though Samuel Dalton had rarely appeared in public or been brought around by the old Mr. Dalton, this time, the old Mr. Dalton specifically called him back, making those involved rethink the situation.

Moreover, Samuel Dalton appeared incredibly gentle and harmless, and many knew his mother was a mysterious foreign woman.

She left Aethelgard when Samuel Dalton was young and disappeared without a trace.

To the scheming aristocrats, Samuel Dalton seemed much easier to manage than Sidney Dalton.

After all, Sidney Dalton always controlled part of the Dalton family’s business, while Samuel Dalton, although holding the title of Third Young Master Dalton, whether he has real power...

That’s uncertain.

Some single debutantes saw Samuel Dalton’s face and were already smitten.

After all, Samuel Dalton’s face exuded an innocent and harmless charm.

With his lips constantly curved in a faint smile, many debutantes were captivated.

Not to mention he might be one of the candidates for the Dalton Family Head.

So when Samuel Dalton approached, a bold debutante was ready to make a move.

As Samuel Dalton was heading toward Selena Kensington, they blocked his path.

"Samuel... Third Young Master, hello, I’m..."

A bolder debutante blocked Samuel Dalton.

Her face slightly flushed, seemingly shy as she stole glances at Samuel Dalton.

This debutante possessed some beauty, otherwise, she wouldn’t dare to approach Samuel Dalton boldly.

She was dressed elegantly in an evening gown, with her swan-like neck slightly raised, her posture straight.

Her demeanor was impeccable.

After the debutante introduced herself, other debutantes who considered approaching watched intently.

They saw Samuel Dalton pause, looked at the debutante ambiguously, and assumed Samuel Dalton fancied her.

They began to feel envy.

"How wonderful... If only I’d been quicker."

"This Third Young Master’s appearance is truly handsome..."

"Such luck for Miss Xu."

"Could Third Young Master really fancy her?!"

"..."

Samuel Dalton was unaware of what the debutantes thought.

Samuel Dalton’s gaze became intense, staring at the woman blocking him, with a subtle dangerous intent flickering in his eyes.

Internally, he calculated how to torment the woman preventing him from reaching his sister.

But just as Samuel Dalton had formed this thought and looked up to speak, his gaze crossed the debutante, landing on Selena Kensington standing not far behind her.

Selena Kensington smiled at him, her gaze seemingly gentle and calm.

But Samuel Dalton saw her warning directed at him in her eyes.

Selena Kensington had been watching Samuel Dalton remain still for a moment, considering his actions as The Gray King from beyond and knowing what Samuel Dalton was thinking.

"..."

She warned him against acting recklessly.

Samuel Dalton slightly pursed his lips, his mouth forming a slightly disappointed frown.

But the dark thoughts gathering within him obediently retreated.

He couldn’t disobey his sister.

Though he could act secretly without Selena Kensington knowing, he didn’t want her to feel disappointed when she found out.

Moreover, before coming here, Mrs. Anna specifically gave Samuel Dalton many reminders.

After summing them all up, Samuel Dalton concluded he must listen to his sister, never defying her.

Samuel Dalton was speechless at Mrs. Anna’s obvious favoritism.

Yet he followed the instructions dutifully.

Warned by his sister, Samuel Dalton gathered his inner darkness, leaving only indifference in his eyes.

"What do you want?"

Samuel Dalton responded lazily.

The debutante felt pleased, misunderstanding Samuel Dalton’s current demeanor as interest in her.

She had attended the Blanchett and Dalton families’ engagement banquet and had seen Samuel Dalton there.

But at that time, Samuel Dalton was too cold and ignored all social advances. Though she was intrigued, she dared not approach.

So she waited for this opportunity.

Her face bloomed with a smile, "Third Young Master, I’d like..."

Her words were cut short, interrupted by Samuel Dalton’s lazy voice.

"Sorry, my sister doesn’t allow me to date early."
