"Madam."
Selena Kensington looked at her, "Are you feeling better?"
Hope Norwood nodded, "Thank you for your concern, madam."
Selena continued, "You should rest for a few more days. I’ll have Lea Dutton accompany for the next few days."
Hope shook her head, "Protecting you is my duty, madam."
Selena was a bit helpless, "You’ve seen Lea’s skills. With her around, just focus on recovering."
"I’ll talk to Sterling about it. You just rest well."
Selena stopped Hope from responding further.
Hope paused, then gave up.
"I’ll follow your arrangents, madam."
After letting Hope go back to rest, Selena also had Lea go back first.
When she walked back to the main house, she saw a WeChat ssage from Iris Sinclair.
[Iris Sinclair]: Sis-in-law, are you okay?
Selena raised an eyebrow, wondering how Iris knew.
Just as she sent the ssage, Iris responded imdiately.
[Iris Sinclair]: My cousin and my brother were together at that ti, and his face suddenly turned terrifying after taking a call...
So that’s how...
[Selie Stays Slim]: I’m fine now, everything’s okay.
After replying to Iris, Selena went upstairs.
Sterling Norwood had asked her to rest at ho for a day, and with nothing else to do, she decided to read the script for "Butterfly Fla."
As Selena headed up, she saw Spencer Norwood and Sterling coming out of the study.
Spencer greeted her, "Sis-in-law."
Selena gave him a gentle smile and looked at Sterling, "Are you going out?"
Sterling was silent for a mont, "Yes, there’s sothing to take care of. You stay and rest well at ho."
"The snacks I bought last ti are in the cupboard, but don’t eat too many at once."
"Let’s have dinner together when I get back tonight."
Sterling said several things all at once.
Selena agreed with a smile.
"Oh, right, I gave Hope a few days off. I’ll have Lea accompany for these few days."
Sterling frowned slightly.
However, he rembered what Spencer had told him about Lea’s other identity.
mber of The Celestial Division.
Could be of so use.
"Okay."
Sterling agreed.
Then Selena watched Sterling and Spencer leave the main house.
She went to the study, picked up her phone, and checked today’s trending topics.
#GorgeousAwardCeremonyReview#
#GorgeousAwardWinners!#
#SelenaKensingtonWinsDoubleCrown!#
...
Most of the trending topics were about the Gorgeous Award, and there was not a single ntion online about what happened last night.
Which made sense, as under the dual pressure from the Norwood Family and the Gorgeous Award program team, no one would dare report on yesterday’s events.
Plus, those people didn’t know what had transpired.
Selena looked at the comnts her fans left online.
[Congrats, sis, on the double crown!!!]
[Double crown, you’re amazing! Sis, keep it up!]
[Looking forward to your new show! When will it be officially announced?]
[Honestly, I’m more excited for the SelSter couple monts... Sorry for trailing off topic!]
[The previous comnt has a point! You’re not alone!]
Selena watched as the topic shifted from her double crown win at the Gorgeous Award to her and Sterling.
She was both amused and exasperated.

A few days later, Selena watched the news on TV.
The Viper Syndicate in Sylva had been eradicated, with most mbers, especially the leader, imprisoned, while a few remained at large.
This news was t with applause from the local residents.
And when Roxanne Sutton, who also saw the news, felt a bit incredulous, she went to find Sidney Dalton.
"Sidney, is that woman really unhard and back?!"
