But in his bones, the importance and care he places on his other half are indelible.
He actually saw Selena Kensington’s actions just now.
But he chose to remain silent.
Now, he can only place his hopes on Selena Kensington.
Sean Norwood thought for a mont, and there was no other way.
After all, Selena Kensington has already gone in.
"Hope Norwood, take a few people and follow in."
"Yes."
Hope Norwood’s expression was cold and stern. After responding to Sean Norwood, she went to organize the personnel.
Dr. Norwood was startled, "You’re going in too?!"
Sean Norwood nodded slightly, "After all, we are connected to this matter."
"I understand."
Dr. Norwood sighed slightly.
After that, Hope Norwood, Sean Norwood, Dr. Norwood, and a few other Hidden Guards ford a team and ventured into the forest.

anwhile, Selena Kensington, who had just run into the forest, gradually slowed her steps when she realized no one was pursuing her.
The paths in the forest were intricate and complex. Looking around at the scattered footsteps, she had no idea which way to go.
As she pondered which direction to take, she suddenly heard footsteps rapidly approaching from behind her.
Selena Kensington’s eyes narrowed.
But as the footsteps got closer, the wary and serious expression on her face relaxed.
The sound of the footsteps belonged to Howler.
"Howler!"
Selena Kensington turned around and called out in surprise.
’Howler!~’
Howler jumped out from behind her and rubbed against her legs.
It seed to be seeking affection and praise.
Selena Kensington chuckled, rubbing its head, "You did great just now."
Howler seed to understand the praise in her words and ’howled’ several tis in response.
Then, it began walking around Selena Kensington.
After playing with Howler for a while, Selena Kensington squatted down in front of it.
"Howler, do you know where Sterling is?"
"He’s lost control. I need to bring him back."
Perhaps it was the seriousness and focus in Selena Kensington’s eyes.
Howler tilted its head and let out a ’Howler?’ sound.
Its tone now lacked the warning and aggression from before, carrying a softer, cozier feeling, as if being coquettish.
Selena Kensington paused, "Go find Sterling."
’Howler?’
Howler once more tilted its head in confusion.
"..."
Selena Kensington finally stood up helplessly, "I must be too anxious to expect you to understand my aning."
Although Howler didn’t understand what Selena Kensington was saying, it felt the disappointnt in her words.
Not knowing how to cheer Selena Kensington up, it could only nuzzle her hand.
Selena Kensington paused, then saw the Blood Jade Bracelet on her hand.
Her eyes lit up.
"Howler."
Selena Kensington called out and then crouched down.
She placed the Blood Jade Bracelet in front of Howler’s nose, "Rember this scent, can you lead to find it?"
Even though she was treating a wild leopard like a dog to track soone, Selena Kensington had no other options now.
She could only hope that Howler still rembered Sterling Norwood’s scent and could help her find him.
Howler sniffed the bracelet slightly, then let out an enthusiastic ’Howler!’
"You rembered?!"
Selena Kensington looked at Howler with delight.
Howler did not respond to her but ran ahead.
The wild leopard ran swiftly; Howler seed to understand that Selena Kensington couldn’t keep up with its pace, so it slowed down considerably.
Still, Selena Kensington struggled to keep running behind it.
"Huff...huff!"
Seeing Selena Kensington slow down more and more, Howler had to stop running.
It switched to walking.
Selena Kensington caught up quickly, walking side by side with Howler.
Her forehead was slightly sweaty, but she still smiled and rubbed Howler’s head.
"You’ve worked hard."
Even though it’s a creature very adept at running, it had to abandon running to accommodate her.
’Howler!’
Howler let out another joyful howl.
Then continued walking forward with Selena Kensington.
Since Howler slowed its pace, Selena Kensington no longer struggled as much.
She observed her surroundings.
It was her first ti venturing this deep into the forest.
The surroundings were eerily silent, with not even birds roosting on the large trees.
Sunlight filtered through the green foliage.
After walking for a while with Howler, Selena Kensington faintly heard the roars and fighting sounds of wild beasts ahead.
"!"
Upon hearing these sounds, Selena Kensington instinctively quickened her pace.
She then jogged toward the noises.
’Howler?’
Although Howler didn’t understand why Selena Kensington suddenly sped up, it still followed closely behind.
"We’re almost there."
Selena Kensington explained casually to Howler, not caring whether it understood.
After jogging a short distance, Selena Kensington slowed down by touching sothing.
The trees and leaves nearby had so blood splattered on them.
The blood hadn’t dried yet, indicating it was just recently spattered.
Selena Kensington’s heart sank, and she quickened her steps forward.
When she saw what lay ahead, her eyes widened, and she instinctively shouted, "Spencer, get away!!!"
In front, Spencer Norwood seed to be fighting with a wild beast.
Nearby, several Hidden Guards also battled wild beasts.
So Hidden Guards were already bleeding, with multiple injuries.
As they couldn’t kill these beasts, they had to be cautious with their moves.
The dicine Gun Sean Norwood gave them earlier seed to be used up, forcing them to fight the beasts barehanded.
This situation left them unable to fight adequately, putting them at a disadvantage.
The beast battling Spencer Norwood was particularly large and strong. Despite Spencer Norwood wielding advanced equipnt, he remained passive because he couldn’t harm the beast fatally.
While Spencer Norwood was fighting the beast, a venomous snake suddenly sprang from behind.
It attempted to ambush Spencer Norwood while he was distracted.
Selena Kensington arrived just in ti to witness this scene.
She instinctively shouted.
Hearing Selena Kensington’s voice, Spencer Norwood reflexively looked towards her direction.
"Sister-in-law?!"
With no ti for thought, his body’s instincts drove him to flee the spot.
Right after Spencer Norwood vacated the spot, the snake struck violently where he had just been.
But since Spencer Norwood evaded in ti, the snake’s attack failed.
Spencer Norwood didn’t have ti to process before he ran straight towards Selena Kensington.
’Howler!’
Seeing Spencer Norwood approach, Howler let out a low growl beside Selena Kensington.
It thought Spencer Norwood intended to harm Selena Kensington, so it warned him with its growl.
Selena Kensington patted Howler’s head, "It’s okay, he won’t hurt ."
Spencer Norwood had just reached Selena Kensington and saw her patting the head of a wild leopard.
His eyes widened slightly.
When had this jungle overlord beco so docile?
