Reborn as the Sweetheart of a Paranoid Boss

Chapter 891: Chapter 891: I Wonder Who This Little Girl Will Take After When She Grows Up

Selena Kensington thought that even if Sterling Norwood got a bit jealous from her words, he wouldn’t care about Liam Irving’s matters anymore.

But unexpectedly, before she finished speaking, Sterling’s face had already darkened.

"You still want to take responsibility for him?!" His voice carried a hint of gritted teeth.

Selena "..."

This topic couldn’t continue anymore.

Selena was filled with helplessness explaining to Sterling, "It’s not the kind of responsibility you’re thinking of..."

Besides, Liam Irving is just a five or six-year-old child, does Sterling really need to think so much?!

Selena was simply exhausted.

She and Sterling talked for a full half an hour, and Sterling’s bit of jealousy finally started to subside.

"Feeling better?" Selena rolled her eyes with annoyance.

Sterling cleared his throat and changed the topic, "Are you tired?"

Hearing this, Selena slowly yawned.

"A little."

Going out today, walking quite a bit, and coaxing Sterling once back, Selena did feel somewhat worn out.

Hearing Selena’s somewhat lazy voice, Sterling understood that Selena was starting to get sleepy.

He casually spoke, "Go to sleep soon."

Selena casually nodded her head, taking her phone and lying down on the bed.

"When are you coming back..." She asked in a somewhat coquettish tone.

Hearing Selena say this, the corners of Sterling’s mouth lifted slightly.

His expression gradually relaxed because of Selena’s voice.

He slowly opened his mouth, "I still need a few more days..."

Hearing Sterling’s words, Selena nodded, not feeling disappointed.

After all, Sterling was handling important matters.

She considerately said, "Then don’t overwork yourself, and stay safe."

"Mm, go to sleep soon."

Hearing Sterling urging her to sleep, Selena lazily responded, "Got it."

"Tomorrow, I’ll let you see the two little ones. Today, little Celeste spent the whole day playing with grandpa, she was so happy..."

"Mm."

Once they had talked enough, and bid each other goodnight, Selena hung up the phone.

A few days later, Sterling came back.

Selena was in the main house, preparing to set off to pick him up.

After changing clothes in the walk-in closet, she habitually went to the nursery to check on the two little ones.

Little Seraphina was still sleeping, but little Celeste was already awake.

At this time, the little girl was well-behaved, not disturbing her brother.

She waved her hands by herself, seemingly amused by something.

When Selena walked over, little Celeste noticed her immediately.

She reached her hands out to Selena, seemingly wanting to be held by her.

Selena smiled and picked her up.

"Oh, little girl, how do you have so much energy all day?" she said while picking up little Celeste.

"Yaya?" little Celeste called out confusedly.

As Selena picked up little Celeste, little Seraphina, who was sleeping beside her, seemed to sense his sister was gone, and the next moment, opened his eyes.

When he saw little Celeste in Selena’s arms, his expression returned to calm.

Looking down, Selena saw little Seraphina was already awake.

So she freed up a hand to pinch little Seraphina’s cheek, "Did mommy wake you up?"

Jasper Norwood "..."

Little Seraphina seemed to turn his face away in annoyance.

Seeing this, Selena ’tched’. "Little brat, not cute at all."

Selena finished speaking, then lowered her head to kiss little Celeste in her arms, "Our little Celeste is the sweet and loveable one."

"Yaya!"

Little Celeste seemed to understand that mommy was praising her and waved her small hands excitedly.

Selena chuckled, then planned to put little Celeste back beside little Seraphina.

However, little Celeste seemed unwilling to return to the crib, holding firmly onto Selena’s clothes.

"What’s wrong? Mommy needs to go and pick up daddy, you stay with your brother like a good girl."

Seeing little Celeste continuously grabbing her clothes, Selena didn’t forcefully put her back on the bed.

So Selena softened her voice, trying to make little Celeste understand what she meant.

Unfortunately, little Celeste still clung tightly to her clothes, letting out another "yaya".

Seeing little Celeste like this, Selena had a bold guess coming to mind.

She hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Do you also want to go with mommy to pick up daddy?"

Hearing Selena’s words, little Celeste seemed even more excited, waving her little hands.

"Yaya!~"

Seeing little Celeste like this, Selena realized she guessed right.

At the same time, she found it a bit amusing.

"You really miss your daddy," she softly tapped little Celeste’s nose.

Little Celeste was a bit puzzled, but continued calling to her mommy.

Realizing how things were, Selena sighed.

If she didn’t bring little Celeste, this little girl might fuss for a long time.

So Selena turned her gaze to little Seraphina.

Little Seraphina "..."

When little Seraphina caught his mother’s gaze, his eyes froze, and then... he slowly closed his eyes again.

Seeing this, Selena’s lips curled.

"Little Seraphina is sleepy again, you stay here and sleep, mommy will take your sister to pick up daddy."

If she took both little ones, it would be much more troublesome.

It was manageable with just one; Selena could hold her and head out.

Little Seraphina didn’t want to bother with his unreliable mom.

And after saying that, Selena happily carried little Celeste and turned to leave.

"Let’s go, little Celeste, we’re going to pick up daddy."

"Yaya!~"

Little Celeste waved her hands happily.

When Sterling stepped off the plane and saw little Celeste nestled in Selena’s arms, his eyebrow slightly raised.

"She kept fussing to come along."

Seeing Sterling’s gaze land on little Celeste, Selena explained helplessly to Sterling.

Sterling chuckled, walked up to Selena, and kissed her on the forehead.

He softly said, "I’m back."

Selena couldn’t help but curl her lips, "Mm, welcome back."

"Yaya!~"

Sandwiched between her parents, little Celeste didn’t want to be ignored and made her presence known with a call.

Hearing little Celeste’s voice, Selena quickly looked down.

Selena muttered, "This little girl sure knows how to draw attention... wonder who she’ll take after when she grows up."

"..."

Sterling quietly shifted his gaze to Selena, then subtly brought it back.

He reached out his hands, "Let me hold her."

Having held her for some time, Selena’s arms were indeed a bit sore.

Hearing Sterling say that, she didn’t act coy but immediately placed little Celeste into Sterling’s arms.

Perhaps knowing she’d be held by her dad, little Celeste didn’t resist.

She looked at Sterling, blinked her eyes.

Realizing it was her dad, she excitedly waved her little hands once more.
