Mrs. Anna hadn’t seen her son use such cruel thods for a long ti.
When he first returned to the Colombo Family, he took pleasure in tornting others.
His face displayed a sinister, cruel expression that was at odds with his appearance.
Eventually, as if he had grown tired, he delegated the task to his subordinates.
"He brought this upon himself..."
He murmured.
Mrs. Anna sighed again, "It’s a pity, they still don’t want to say anything..."
Samuel Dalton paused upon hearing Mrs. Anna’s words.
His indifferent gaze took on a cold hue.

Selena Kensington and Sterling Norwood only returned to Aethelgard in the evening.
Although she slept on the plane, Selena still felt sowhat exhausted.
After dinner, she sent a ssage to Hugh Kensington and went to take a bath, preparing to sleep.
Sterling watched as his wife, half-dazed, walked into the bathroom, then instructed the servants to organize the things Selena bought and put them in the closet.
After her bath, Selena ca out, saw Sterling in the room and belatedly reacted, "Hmm?"
"Sterling, where are the things I bought..."
"...I had them put in your closet."
Selena said "Oh," and walked over.
She instinctively sat on the sofa, waiting for Sterling to blow-dry her hair.
This subconscious action had beco a habit.
Sterling ca over, took the hairdryer, and started drying her hair.
The heat on her head and the humming sound of the hairdryer made Selena feel sleepy.
She yawned, then leaned back on the sofa and fell asleep while Sterling was still drying her hair from behind.
When Sterling finished blow-drying, he noticed his wife had fallen asleep.
She was curled up on the sofa, her head nodding slightly.
He turned off the hairdryer and carried her to the bed.

The next morning, Selena saw several ssages on her phone.
The first was from Hugh.
[Little Vest of Big Sis]: Back?
[Little Vest of Big Sis]: Lynn agreed. But she won’t co to Aethelgard until early next month.
Selena replied with "Okay."
The second ssage was from Vivian Sutton.
[Vivian Stays Rich]: Sis, you’re back, right? TVT. I feel so bored without you.
Selena replied: Just got back last night.
After sending, she sent Vivian several photos of herself and Sterling.
Vivian instantly replied: Ahhh, I’m done for, I’m turning into a lemon!
[Selie Stays Slim]: Where’s your little prince?
[Vivian Stays Rich]: Don’t ntion it, isn’t his only elder sister? The responsibility of inheriting the Luther Family falls on him, so he’s been busy learning to manage the company these days and has no ti to play with .
[Selie Stays Slim]: He’s working hard for your future.
After chatting with Vivian for a while, Selena continued to look at other ssages.
The third ssage was from Sloane Hawthorne.
She sent Selena her dance video.
[Sloane]: Sis, this is the full dance.
[Sloane]: Brother Hugh said I should study with the vocal teacher for a few days first.
[Sloane]: And the school agreed that I can attend classes while filming.
Selena raised her eyebrows slightly when she saw Sloane’s ssage.
She thought for a mont and replied to her: It’s okay, no hurry; study well first. This drama will have a longer cycle.
Selena waited for a while, but Sloane didn’t reply.
Guessing she was busy, Selena picked up paper and pen and walked to the study.

anwhile, in The Imperial Building.
Sterling Norwood sat at the desk, his expression slightly chilly.
Silvester Norwood stood silently before him.
"...When did he die?"
After a long silence, Sterling spoke.
"Three days ago."
Silvester’s face looked rather serious.
