"..."
Selena Kensington was at a loss for words.
Is this what they an by love turning people into sweet, naive fools?
She rembered that Silas Sinclair wasn’t like this in the past.
Seeing that Silas really seed to have this idea, Selena quickly waved her hands.
"Let’s not, let’s not."
After saying this, she promptly looked at Sloane Hawthorne, speaking amusedly, "Sloane, hurry up and take him away."
Sloane also seed a bit helpless, nodded along with Selena’s words.
"Well then, sis, we’ll be off."
Then he directly pulled Silas Sinclair by the arm and left.
After Sloane Hawthorne and Silas Sinclair had left, Selena Kensington turned to look at Samuel Dalton.
She was just about to suggest continuing on, but noticed Samuel Dalton had fallen into deep thought.
Feeling puzzled, Selena raised her hand and waved it in front of Samuel Dalton.
"Samuel, what are you thinking about?"
Samuel Dalton snapped out of it, staring intently at Selena.
"Sister."
He suddenly addressed Selena seriously.
Selena looked at him quizzically.
But what Samuel Dalton said next almost made her die of anger.
"Do you need an island?"
"?"
Selena heard this and a huge question mark appeared in her mind.
What did Samuel an by this?
Could it be what she’s thinking?
Samuel Dalton thought for a few seconds before speaking, "The Colombo Family has thirteen islands in The Zephyr Sea that have been developed with complete facilities..."
Selena quickly interrupted him, "Wait, what do you an by this?"
Samuel Dalton said seriously, "I also want to give my... nephew an early birth gift."
After hearing this, Selena couldn’t help but look displeased.
Gritting her teeth, she said, "Shut up!"
Are they all poisonous or sothing?
Silas Sinclair might be an exception since he has precedent.
What’s going on with Samuel Dalton? Is he imitating those domineering CEOs?
She finally understood why Mrs. Anna often got half-angry at Samuel Dalton...
Samuel Dalton, hearing Selena’s fierce tone, subconsciously stopped.
A hint of confusion appeared on his face.
After yelling that sentence, Selena saw the rare look of confusion on Samuel Dalton’s face.
Her heart was left with only helplessness and amusent.
She naturally knew it was Samuel Dalton’s good intention, so she hadn’t spoken too harshly just now.
She was just a bit speechless.
"Don’t think about this matter again!"
Selena warned him.
When Selena’s child is born and sees these uncles either throwing amusent parks or islands, who knows how terrified they’d be...
"Oh..."
Samuel Dalton beca quite docile after being warned, though it’s unclear what his thoughts truly were...
Seeing Samuel Dalton calm down, Selena softened her tone.
"I don’t an to bla you, just maybe... give normal gifts."
Samuel Dalton nodded obediently, looking like he understood "Alright."
Seeing Samuel Dalton being so sensible, Selena nodded in satisfaction "Let’s continue walking."
However, when Selena later saw the gift Samuel Dalton sent, she almost threw him out in anger.
Still, recalling Samuel Dalton’s earlier words, she indeed felt a bit surprised.
Samuel Dalton seed to have changed sowhat.
He no longer rejected the role of being a brother; instead, he accepted this identity quite calmly.
Thinking this way, the expression on Selena’s face relaxed a lot.
She also felt relief.
This was good.
Although she had hoped for Samuel Dalton to let go of his obsession, if he consistently insisted stubbornly, then no matter what she said, it would be useless.
Now that Samuel Dalton is willing to make changes, it’s beneficial for everyone.
However, Selena was indeed curious about what exactly made Samuel Dalton decide to change.
The two continued walking forward.

anwhile, Sloane Hawthorne, after dragging Silas Sinclair so distance away, gradually slowed down the pace.
She glanced at Silas Sinclair beside her, seemingly contemplating sothing.
"Still thinking about Samuel Dalton?"
"You seem to be apprehensive about his other identity."
Sloane glanced at him and roughly guessed what Silas Sinclair was thinking.
After all, Silas Sinclair’s attempt to probe Samuel Dalton’s attitude was rather blatant.
Especially when Samuel Dalton confird he was Alessio.
"Do you know what the na Alessio Colombo represents on the Isle of Cyrin and even beyond The Southern Domain?"
Silas Sinclair lazily asked her.
Sloane shook her head.
She hadn’t touched on such matters, nor was she very clear on what the Colombo Family’s standing was.
"He is the Young Master of the Colombo Family, the Gray King beyond The Southern Domain, the Uncrowned King on the Isle of Cyrin."
Silas stated matter-of-factly.
Sloane’s eyes widened slightly in disbelief.
Though she didn’t fully understand what these titles ant, she had an inkling of their significance.
"I rember when he returned to the Colombo Family, he slaughtered those in the family who opposed him."
"And after he consolidated his position, his actions directly wiped out several forces beyond The Southern Domain..."
Sloane listened to Silas’s words, furrowing her brows.
"Doesn’t that make him dangerous? What about my sister..."
Sloane voiced her concern.
Silas shook his head slightly, "On the contrary."
"With Samuel Dalton around, at least Selena’s safety is assured."
After all, on the Isle of Cyrin, on his own turf, Samuel Dalton would never allow those he protects to encounter any mishaps.
"I overthought..."
Sloane realized, letting out a slight sigh of relief.
"Alright, since your sister has Samuel Dalton watching over her, we can go have fun without worry."
Silas said, laughing as he wrapped an arm around Sloane’s shoulder, continuing to walk forward.

anwhile, Selena Kensington and Samuel Dalton noticed more people appearing on the street as they strolled.
Quite a few had various flower wreaths in their hands.
So even had their faces painted.
Selena looked at Samuel Dalton, puzzled, "Samuel, is there an event happening later?"
"..."
Samuel Dalton wasn’t aware of this, and turned to look at Alan standing in casual clothes not far away.
Alan understood his intention, stepped forward, and respectfully answered Selena’s question.
"Miss, this is a kind of street parade."
"At nightfall, large performing troupes from the Isle of Cyrin will parade down the main streets of the central district."
"Those people with flower wreaths in their hands are the staff who will offer blessings to tourists later."
This is also the most lively segnt.
Understanding this, Selena smiled and spoke to Alan, "I see, thank you."
"No need for thanks, Miss."
After explaining, Alan stepped back.
Once Selena turned back to look at the people on the street, she noticed bursts of enthusiastic cheers erupting.
Next, those staff in gorgeous performance costus ca up playing music instrunts.
Behind them were various parade vehicles, performance troupes...
