Reborn as the Sweetheart of a Paranoid Boss
Chapter 764: Show Your Love, Break Up Fast
Unable to resist saying, "Cousin, flaunt your love and itāll end quickly..." š§š³š¦āÆšš¦š·šÆšš£š¦š.šøš°š
At this moment, Selena had already taken the photograph and was admiring it.
Meanwhile, Sterling retracted his gaze, looking back at the screen.
He heard this and raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Donāt worry, once the child is born, theyāll call you uncle."
"..."
A fatal blow!
The scene fell into silence for a moment.
Silas heard this and couldnāt help but darken his expression.
The other Norwood family members couldnāt suppress their amusement.
Because Sterling had on a headset, Selena couldnāt hear what Silas said.
But she could hear Sterlingās words.
So when Selena heard Sterlingās sentence, she raised her head with a strange expression and glanced at him.
Werenāt they in a meeting? Why suddenly talk about children?
Nonetheless, Selena just glanced before withdrawing her gaze since Sterling had already returned to the main topic.
To avoid disturbing him, Selena quietly admired the photos sheād just taken.
After a while, she gradually became absorbed in Sterlingās voice.
He was discussing the layout throughout Aethelgard, mentioning every entrance and exit monitored by the Norwood family.
They especially focused on the various airports in Aethelgard and Zoe Sinclairās whereabouts.
Listening to Sterlingās detailed plans made Selena secretly shocked.
From his tone, have they already tracked the movements of the Godsbane organization?
Her hand subconsciously moved towards her phone.
But as she just opened the message interface, her fingers suddenly jerked back as if electrocuted.
She shouldnāt have done this.
Selena calmed down.
She momentarily considered asking Cole Vaughn about their current situation.
But it was just a fleeting thought before she returned to reason.
These days, due to Esther Jennings and Vincent Sinclairās situation, her understanding of the Godsbane organization had changed significantly.
Yet she couldnāt bring herself to join the Godsbane organization.
She could understand Vincent Sinclairās reckless actions after losing a loved one.
But this didnāt mean Selena agreed with his methods of experimenting on humans and slaughtering descendants of the Fell Bloodline.
Little did she know, Sterling, who had been orchestrating everything, noticed her involuntary movements and his eyes gleamed.
The video conference soon concluded.
After it ended, Sterling rose from his chair and approached.
At that exact moment, Selena also emerged from her thoughts.
Her eyes still carried traces of lingering confusion.
"Is it over?"
She asked Sterling.
"Yes."
Sterling replied and extended his hand.
Selena naturally placed her hand on his, then stood up from the sofa.
As she stood, she casually asked, "Have you located the position of the Godsbane organization?"
"..."
Sterling heard her question, his gaze slightly cold.
He fixed his gaze on Selena for a second before unobtrusively shifting away.
"Yes."
He replied with an emotionless voice.
His gaze gradually turned chilly.
Selena didnāt notice anything amiss in Sterlingās demeanor, so she nodded and refrained from questioning further.
Sterling, observing her expression, suddenly added,
"They never abandoned the laboratory they set in Aethelgard decades ago."
Hearing Sterlingās words, Selena immediately turned her head, frowning slightly.
"What do you mean?"
Sterling spoke leisurely, "What I mean is that their current stopover is that laboratory."
"That lab is located in the suburbs of Aethelgard, but on the opposite side of the Norwood estate. Yet itās been abandoned for decades, and we never expected theyād be so bold to choose the most dangerous place for them..."
Selena listened to Sterlingās words and pondered deeply.
Perhaps in the eyes of the Godsbane organization, the most dangerous place is ironically the safest.
That abandoned laboratory was destroyed decades ago by the Empire and the Norwood family.
Now only some broken, immovable equipment remains inside.
Itās essentially useless.
But the place is special, the Empire feared uninformed citizens might wander in, so they still station The Celestial Division for periodic monitoring.
Then how did the Godsbane organization elude The Celestial Divisionās watch?
Could it be...
There are members of the Godsbane organization within The Celestial Division?
Besides, Vincent Sinclair was once the leader of The Celestial Division, his knowledge far exceeds anyone elseās.
So placing an insider isnāt impossible.
But who is this insider?
Someone she knows or doesnāt?
This thought made Selena instinctively glance at Sterling beside her.
"The Celestial Division..."
Before Selena could utter these two words, Sterling gave her a knowing wink.
Selena immediately understood.
Sterling must have also realized this but has been discreetly managing without alarming anyone.
Thus Selena chose not to pursue the matter.
She changed the topic, "New Yearās Day is coming soon, how do you want to spend it?"
After asking, she couldnāt help but sigh at how quickly time had passed.
"What do you want to do?"
Sterling asked with his eyes lowered, affection in his gaze.
"Hmm... Being pregnant doesnāt allow much travel."
Selena thought for a moment but couldnāt come up with any good ideas.
After all, she and Sterling had already experienced typical couple outings and adventures.
Moreover, being pregnant now, she couldnāt indulge like young lovers anymore.
"Then think some more."
Sterling said, then took her hand and walked out.
"Okay."
Selena curved her eyes, smiling in response.

New Yearās Day arrived quickly.
Being the start of a new year, the publicās enthusiasm was incredibly high.
Downtown Aethelgard became even more bustling.
Online, there were updates from various places about New Yearās celebrations.
Sterling left early without saying why, and Selena, unsure of what to do today after thinking for several days, planned to discuss with him upon his return.
She sighed slightly as she looked out at the distant Downtown Aethelgard.
Just as she picked up her phone, she received a message from Vivian Sutton.
[Vivian doesnāt want to be poor]: Babe, where are you going to play today?
After sending that message, Vivian seemed to realize something and immediately followed up.
[Vivian doesnāt want to be poor]: But your bellyās big now, moving around is quite inconvenient.
Looking at Vivianās messages, Selena lowered her head to check her own growing belly.
The twin babies had been quite peaceful lately.
Moreover...
Checking the sky, itās still early.
