Reborn as the Sweetheart of a Paranoid Boss

Chapter 889: Chapter 889: Madam Is a Very Gentle Person

After resolving the issues with the construction team, Selena Kensington turned her head to look at Liam Irving again.

She gave him a smile.

"Little Levi, are you willing to come with me? You will receive the most professional training and grow up to be someone like Sister Hope."

"That’s the sister right next to you." Selena pointed to Hope Norwood beside Liam Irving.

Liam Irving glanced at Hope Norwood who had just grabbed him, and slightly pursed his lips.

He seemed to be contemplating.

Selena wasn’t in a hurry, and after Liam Irving had thought it over, she leisurely added, "Once you become a Hidden Guard of the Norwood Family, I can promise you one thing, as long as it’s beyond my abilities."

Upon hearing Selena’s words, Liam Irving nearly made up his mind.

Although he was young and had always lived in The Grolian Desert within the Northwestern Frontier, with little knowledge of the Norwood Family, he wanted to try trusting the woman in front of him.

This woman who patted his head to comfort him.

Liam Irving gazed steadily at the woman in front of him, smiling flower-like at him, "Okay. I’ll go with you."

His voice was still somewhat immature, but his tone was very firm.

Upon hearing Liam Irving agree, Selena’s smile widened at the corners of her mouth.

She stood up and then extended her hand to Liam Irving.

"Come," she said softly.

Liam Irving looked at the tender, fair hand in front of him, slightly pursed his lips, and finally extended his own hand.

Selena firmly grasped Liam Irving’s small hand, holding him tightly.

Liam Irving stumbled forward a few steps, feeling the warm softness transmitted through his palm, his mouth tightened even further.

Selena glanced at Liam Irving’s attire, then looked towards Hugh Kensington, "You guys go to the hotel first. I’ll take this little fellow to get dressed up."

Hugh Kensington nodded. He glanced at Liam Irving and saw that Liam obediently allowed Selena to hold his hand without making any other moves, so he helplessly called to the people beside him.

The original plan was to finish checking out the scenic arrangements, then dine with the construction team before leaving.

But Liam Irving’s appearance brought such a pleasant surprise.

The chief engineer, seeing that Selena truly intended to take Liam Irving away, couldn’t help but speak up, "Miss Kensington, if you really want to take him away, it’s best to ask him why he’s here."

"The Gritu Tribe disappeared many years ago. There are rumors that they offended nature or provoked forces they couldn’t afford to offend, so investigating might be safer."

The chief engineer said this out of humanitarian concern.

If it weren’t for being friendly with Selena and the others, the chief engineer wouldn’t have suddenly spoken up.

After all, sometimes speaking up can invite trouble.

Upon hearing the chief engineer’s advice, Selena nodded slightly, "I understand, thank you."

The chief engineer shook his head slightly.

Following that, Hugh Kensington took the others to the previously reserved hotel restaurant.

Meanwhile, Selena took Hope Norwood and Liam Irving to a nearby clothing store.

It was Selena’s first time buying clothes for such a young child as Liam Irving, so she unleashed her shopping instincts and picked out several outfits for him in succession.

Liam Irving went from obediently accompanying Selena to the changing room to try on clothes, to being numb by the end.

Hope Norwood: "..."

Hope Norwood watched Selena enthusiastically running to the side to pick more clothes, then lowered her head, looking at Liam Irving standing beside her with a numb expression, and seemed to speak with a touch of sympathy, "Madam just hasn’t shopped in a long time and has been suppressing herself for too long."

"You’ll find that Madam is a very gentle person once you’ve been with her long enough."

This had been Hope Norwood’s feeling for a long while.

Selena’s appearance might carry an air of aggression, making one quickly assume she is arrogant and haughty.

But upon closer acquaintance, you’ll find she is a meticulous and gentle person.

She has her principles and can handle things calmly and rationally.

Liam Irving heard Hope Norwood’s words and remained silent.

He naturally knew she was a gentle person...

After buying five or six outfits for Liam Irving, Selena finally wrapped up her shopping spree.

Next, Selena took Liam Irving for a haircut.

Seeing Liam Irving after his haircut, Selena clicked her tongue in admiration, "This little guy is quite handsome with this look! He’s sure to be a heartbreaker when he grows up!"

Liam Irving: "..."

The barber who cut Liam’s hair laughed, "Such a young boy already has character, even has a tattoo."

Hearing the barber’s words, Selena paused a bit, then responded with a smile, "Yes, my kid has his own personality, I can’t stop him..."

Liam Irving’s eyes flickered slightly when he heard the phrase ’my kid’ from Selena.

The Gritu Tribe’s affairs are only known by those who grew up within the Northwestern Frontier, and with the Gritu Tribe’s disappearance, many young people within the Northwestern Frontier regard the tribe as merely a legend...

After hearing the barber say this, Selena simply went along with it, which also reduced the chances of Liam Irving being discovered.

As for what kind of people put Liam Irving in this situation, Selena would investigate but not now.

The barber chuckled, "Such a handsome little guy with some personality isn’t a bad thing..."

After getting Liam Irving’s hair cut, Selena took him back to the hotel restaurant Hugh Kensington had reserved.

After finishing their meal, they prepared to return to Aethelgard.

While Hugh Kensington and Asa Carter spoke outside with the construction team, Selena sat in the car and talked to Liam Irving.

"We’re heading back to Aethelgard. Once we arrive at the training camp of the Norwood Family, it will be your home."

Upon hearing Selena’s statement, Liam Irving’s eyes flickered slightly.

After speaking to him, Selena didn’t await a response from Liam Irving but raised her head to speak to Hope Norwood, "Hope, tell Spencer that I’ve brought him a new recruit."

Hope Norwood immediately replied, "Understood, Madam."

Hugh Kensington and Asa Carter talked outside for a while, and after clarifying everything, they got into the car.

Once everyone was in the car, Hope Norwood started the vehicle.

Hugh Kensington was telling Selena about what he discussed with the construction team, "I’ve explained things clearly to the construction team, they said the transformation within the scenic area could be completed within two weeks at most. By then, it will directly become a film set attraction..."

Selena was somewhat surprised upon hearing Hugh Kensington’s words, "Two weeks? That’s pretty fast..."

After all, the scenic area wasn’t initially intended as a film set.

It had several attractions with various recreational facilities.

So, the transformation would indeed be quite challenging.

Asa Carter smiled and chimed in, "President Kensington raised the price significantly, and the construction team said they could introduce colleagues they know to come together to complete it. With two construction teams, it indeed saves a lot of time."
