By the coastline, clusters of fireworks bloom together, forming a stunning and spectacular scene.
Multicolored fireworks illuminate the calm sea in the distance.
And the tourists below let out waves of cheers.
It seems they are cheering to celebrate this grand spectacle.
Selena Kensington ca back to her senses from the distant scene.
When she turned her head, she found Samuel Dalton was also staring at the fireworks ahead in a daze.
Selena Kensington was taken aback.
It’s rare for Samuel Dalton to be interested in these things.
"Samuel."
She called his na softly.
Samuel Dalton ca back to reality and looked at Selena Kensington. "Sister."
Selena Kensington took out a thorn flower brooch from her bag that had been kept there for a long ti.
She placed it on the table and pushed it over.
"This gift is too valuable."
Samuel Dalton was startled when he saw the gift box Selena Kensington pushed over.
He naturally recognized this gift box. He spent nearly three days choosing it to hold the thorn flower brooch.
Samuel Dalton slightly opened his mouth, ready to ask Selena Kensington to take back this gift, but her following words instantly left him stunned.
"I have regained my mory."
Selena Kensington spoke before Samuel Dalton could say anything.
But her words fell into Samuel Dalton’s ears like a bomb.
He suddenly froze on the sofa.
Selena Kensington quietly waited for him to process.
Samuel Dalton was dazed for nearly a minute.
After a minute, he hesitantly spoke, "You... rembered?"
Once he spoke, Samuel Dalton realized his throat was unbearably hoarse.
Even his speech seed cloaked in various oppressions.
He lifted his eyes to look at Selena Kensington across from him.
Like a stubborn child, obstinately waiting for an answer.
Selena Kensington calmly gazed at him, letting his eyes remain on her.
"Yes."
"I rember there was a little kid with red teary eyes at the airport, looking cute and adorable."
"I gave him three candies I had and forced him to eat them all..."
Selena Kensington described lightly.
Back then, Selena Kensington rely watched young Samuel Dalton, with eyes reddened from crying, standing stubbornly in the airport hall, as if waiting for soone to turn back.
She saw his cute fair face made more endearing because of his red eyes and couldn’t help but walk over.
But the little guy seed stubborn; even when Selena Kensington gave him candies, he remained unmoved.
So Selena Kensington decided to take a tough stance.
She forcibly opened Samuel Dalton’s mouth and made him eat.
Since Samuel Dalton was young, his strength was naturally no match for Selena Kensington, nor could he hide his expressions.
So he could only glare at Selena Kensington angrily.
Selena Kensington ignored his angry look, forcing him to finish eating and clapped her hands.
"Alright, now your heart is already sweet, don’t be sad."
"You look like this, and others will think you’re easily bullied."
Though the words were still sowhat childish, Selena Kensington awkwardly comforted the remarkably handso child.
But because she usually spoke to Hugh Kensington in a threatening tone, and Samuel Dalton happened to be about the sa age as Hugh Kensington.
Even the comforting words for Samuel Dalton turned into threats.
"Then they will bully you, they might even tease you!"
"..."
Samuel Dalton suddenly froze in place.
The angry expression on his face gradually faded.
Selena Kensington found Samuel Dalton’s dazed look even more adorable.
She raised her hand and unapologetically pinched his cheek, playfully saying, "Little kid, how about calling sister?"
Samuel Dalton initially struggled, but after realizing his strength was no match for Selena Kensington, he gave up resisting.
He pursed his lips, stubbornly refusing to call Selena Kensington sister.
Selena Kensington was about to continue threatening Samuel Dalton to call her ’sister’ when Julian Jennings called her away.
"I’m leaving, little kid, rember my words!"
Selena Kensington waved at Samuel Dalton and then went chasing after Julian Jennings and Connor Kensington.
Samuel Dalton stood dumbfounded on the spot, watching Selena Kensington’s disappearing figure, with a lingering sweet taste in his mouth.
"..."
Samuel Dalton fell silent after hearing Selena Kensington’s words.
Indeed, she had regained her mory.
That was the last ti Samuel Dalton ever showed his true self in front of outsiders.
Because that ti, Mrs. Anna left him, departing from The Empire.
He pleaded with her not to leave, asked her to take him away.
But ultimately, Mrs. Anna still left without hesitation.
Other than the old Dalton head, the Dalton Family did not acknowledge his identity.
They all thought he was rely a disgraceful illegitimate child.
While the old Dalton head wasn’t around, those people would always speak maliciously about him behind his back.
They assud Samuel Dalton couldn’t hear, or perhaps they weren’t even bothered to disguise themselves in front of him.
He did not like that cold ho.
Nor did he want to face those hypocritical people.
So after Mrs. Anna left, he beca lost, stubbornly staying in place, refusing to leave.
He thought that by doing so, his mother might turn back to find him.
But he didn’t wait for Mrs. Anna to return; instead, he waited for Selena Kensington.
The girl who was only two years older than him, forcing him to eat the thing he hated the most.
And solemnly spoke her so-called ’words of wisdom’.
Yet, inexplicably, Samuel Dalton rembered her words.
He began to disguise himself, not allowing his true self to be shown.
He started planning silently, retaliating against those who maligned him.
Until later, Samuel Dalton grew up.
He also understood why Mrs. Anna had to leave at that ti.
She bore a duty she had to undertake.
The Colombo Family Head was seriously ill at that ti, and as Mrs. Anna was his only daughter, she had to return to consolidate their power to prevent her father’s influence from falling into other clansn’s hands.
She didn’t take Samuel Dalton away to protect him.
Because those who lingered in the gray area wouldn’t spare Samuel Dalton just because he was a child.
They clearly knew that a child’s hatred could grow enough to destroy them.
Mrs. Anna and the old Dalton head made a pact to hide Samuel Dalton’s identity no matter what.
Thus, over the years, Samuel Dalton managed to grow up safely.
Selena Kensington watched Samuel Dalton, who seed to be lost in thoughts.
She calmly spoke, "Samuel, what you feel for isn’t love, you realized this, didn’t you?"
Samuel Dalton’s eyelashes trembled as he heard her words.
But he remained silent.
"You’re just trapping yourself in that mont, never having moved past it."
"I am rely an obsession of yours."
Selena Kensington stated calmly.
"If it wasn’t who appeared at that mont, would you feel the sa?"
"The answer is obvious."
"You wouldn’t."
Samuel Dalton slightly opened his mouth but found himself unable to refute Selena Kensington’s words.
