In the end, it was all because of a small gesture she made at the ti.
Yet, unexpectedly, it left an indelible mark on this young man’s heart.
That was when Selena Kensington first returned from Oakhaven with Julian Jennings and Connor Kensington; she had originally promised Hugh Kensington to bring him back three candies produced there.
But at the airport, she encountered Samuel Dalton.
She had never had much resistance to delicate and beautiful people since she was a child. At that ti, even with Samuel Dalton’s cold expression, he was still soft and adorable, making her want to squeeze his face.
And Selena Kensington did just that.
Later, to make up for pinching Samuel Dalton’s wrinkled face, Selena Kensington gave him all three candies she had in her hand.
As for Hugh Kensington’s request?
Selena Kensington said, in the face of a good-looking person, who would rember that.
She couldn’t reciprocate Samuel Dalton’s feelings, only hoping his obsession could be resolved.
What he cherished was just the warmth of that instant.
She didn’t know what had happened to Samuel Dalton at the ti. Perhaps, she just happened to appear at that mont, becoming his fixation.
Selena Kensington’s thoughts swirled endlessly within her mind.
Until a system’s female voice prompted her, "If needed, please leave a ssage after the beep—"
Selena Kensington was taken aback; was Samuel Dalton busy?
She was a bit puzzled but still spoke to the phone, "Samuel, Happy New Year, may you be happy and safe."
After saying that, Selena Kensington hung up the phone.

anwhile, on the Isle of Cyrin.
At a private hospital under the Colombo Family’s na.
The Colombo Family’s bodyguards had completely surrounded the hospital.
Especially one of the floors, where two rows of black-clad bodyguards had tightly encircled the floor.
At that mont, the light on the surgery room’s door on that floor was constantly red.
Mrs. Anna, clad in red, was anxiously pacing outside the surgery room door.
Her face showed anxiety and anger.
"Damn Smith! How dare he plot against my son!!!"
She spoke in fluent Vyland language.
Her words were filled with undiluted anger and harshness.
Just as Mrs. Anna was expressing her anger, the surgery room door suddenly swung open.
The attending physician wearing a white coat walked out.
Mrs. Anna didn’t care about anything else and imdiately approached.
"Doctor, how is my son?!"
The attending physician sighed, "Master Alessio was hit by several bullets, and we have removed them."
"However, Madam. There are still blood clots in the Young Master’s brain that have not been cleared, which could affect his future life, potentially causing dentia in severe cases."
Mrs. Anna was stunned, then quickly said, "Then clean those clots quickly!"
The attending physician shook his head slightly, "It’s not that simple, madam."
"The location of that clot is very fragile, a slight mistake could affect other nerves."
"And now, Young Master Alessio’s will to survive seems sowhat weak. We cannot guarantee that he can make it through the surgery."
Mrs. Anna was taken aback for a mont.
When she heard that Samuel Dalton’s will to survive was weak, she understood.
Her son seed to have lost his will.
"Tell , what should I do."
Mrs. Anna murmured.
The attending physician continued, "Master Alessio currently does not want to wake from his slumber. Perhaps you can talk to him, inspire his will to survive."
Upon hearing the attending physician, Mrs. Anna followed him eagerly into the surgery room, changed into sterile clothing, and was brought to the surgery table.
Looking at Samuel Dalton, who was attached to various needles, wrapped in bandages, and with tightly closed eyes,
Mrs. Anna was deeply distressed.
At this mont, Samuel Dalton looked like a fragile doll, extrely delicate.
She leaned slightly, whispering into Samuel Dalton’s ear.
"Samuel, do you want to give up like this?"
She said softly.
But Samuel Dalton remained unresponsive.
Mrs. Anna’s eyes darkened, "Samuel, that little girl might still be waiting for you. If you can’t make it this ti, how can you et her?"
Mrs. Anna had no choice but to bring up Selena Kensington.
But what Mrs. Anna didn’t expect was that even when Samuel Dalton heard about Selena Kensington, he only moved his fingers slightly.
Mrs. Anna paused.
Even Selena Kensington’s matter couldn’t spark his will to survive?
No...
Mrs. Anna suddenly realized sothing.
Then she gave a bitter smile.
She didn’t know what to say about her son.
From the beginning, her son knew that the girl did not belong to him.
So, how could she possibly be waiting for him?
Mrs. Anna’s remark was a lie from the start.
She sighed slightly.
"Samuel, don’t forget why you ca back to the Colombo Family."
From the start, Mrs. Anna knew why her son returned to the Colombo Family.
It was to gain control and power.
It was so that one day, he could be closer to her.
As soon as she said this, Mrs. Anna noticed that all five of Samuel Dalton’s fingers moved slightly.
She stood up excitedly, "Doctor, does this an Alessio is..."
The attending physician, looking at the screen data display, also said excitedly to Mrs. Anna, "Madam, this thod is effective, please continue talking."
Mrs. Anna nodded and then continued to talk about Selena Kensington to Samuel Dalton.
Unfortunately, after that, Samuel Dalton did not react strongly again.
Mrs. Anna was sowhat disappointed.
"Does this... require stronger stimulation?"
The attending physician was montarily puzzled.
Just when the two were perplexed, the man in black who had been by Mrs. Anna’s side earlier walked in, holding a phone.
"Madam."
Mrs. Anna looked up, "Evan? What’s the matter."
Evan handed over the phone, "Madam, this is the Young Master’s phone. A voice ssage just ca in."
Mrs. Anna took it in confusion.
Then, when she saw the note above, her hand shook.
Without caring for anything else, she quickly placed the phone by Samuel Dalton’s ear.
She opened the voice ssage.
Selena Kensington’s voice erged from the phone and reached Samuel Dalton’s ears.
He heard a familiar, gentle voice.
He heard her say, "Samuel, Happy New Year, may you be happy and safe."
In a muddled sleep, he was suddenly awakened by these words.
This is... Sister’s voice.
But how could her voice appear by his ear?
Samuel Dalton tried hard to escape the confusion, tried to open his eyes...
He wanted to see for himself if Selena Kensington was truly in front of him.
Just as he was about to break free from the haze, Mrs. Anna’s voice ca.
"Samuel, did you hear? That little girl just called and left you a ssage. She hopes you are happy and safe."
