Perhaps Roxanne Sutton’s mother never imagined how desperate her daughter was to rise above the rest.
For this, she was willing to pay any price.
Unfortunately, she eventually lost herself on this path.
Selena Kensington nodded slightly.
Though she felt so sentintality inside, it still couldn’t be a reason for her to sympathize with Roxanne Sutton.
After all, these were choices she made little by little.
So she must bear the consequences.
Lark Mayfield watched Selena Kensington’s face, noticing only slight fluctuations in her expression and nothing more.
She was sowhat surprised.
"I thought you would sympathize with her."
Lark Mayfield didn’t like hiding things, nor did she see the need to; she directly asked what was on her mind.
Selena Kensington glanced at her casually, "Why, do I look like a saint to you?"
"Ha..."
Lark Mayfield chuckled lightly.
Though she didn’t directly answer Selena Kensington’s question, Selena understood her aning.
Selena Kensington sighed slightly, her eyes a bit resigned.
It seed Lark Mayfield had a poor first impression of her.
During the ti Selena Kensington and Lark Mayfield were talking, Sidney Dalton arrived at the agreed place with Roxanne Sutton.
Guided by a waiter, he walked toward the booth and saw Roxanne Sutton quietly sitting there.
Roxanne Sutton looked up and saw him as well.
Her expression was calm.
She must have thought it over a lot yesterday, so facing Sidney Dalton now, she showed little emotional fluctuation.
After the engagent banquet, Sidney Dalton was not much affected; instead, the Blanchett Family compensated him with considerable benefits.
anwhile, the old Mr. Dalton had been gradually transferring the Dalton Family’s businesses to him.
Now Sidney Dalton was only left to completely inherit the position of Dalton Family Head.
Because his career was flourishing, he was confident to et Roxanne Sutton like this.
Furthermore, he wanted to know how Roxanne Sutton had managed to climb to Selena Kensington’s side.
Since Roxanne Sutton was aware of matters related to the Kensington Family, Sidney Dalton felt an uneasy subtlety.
However, Sidney Dalton remained self-assured, confident that even if Roxanne Sutton held any grudges against him, she wouldn’t do anything to him.
He had enough confidence in himself.
From the beginning, Roxanne Sutton admired him, willing to leave her hotown and follow him for years.
All these years, even before he abandoned her, Roxanne Sutton had always still admired him.
And upon returning this ti, at the engagent banquet, she specifically targeted Catherine Blanchett, yet did nothing to him.
Sidney Dalton believed Roxanne Sutton still had lingering feelings for him after returning.
That’s why she appeared at the engagent banquet and ruined Catherine Blanchett.
As for whether Roxanne Sutton would tell Selena Kensington about matters concerning the Kensington Family, Sidney Dalton assud Roxanne Sutton wasn’t rash enough for that.
Even if Roxanne Sutton hadn’t genuinely participated in events from back then, she still was an observer.
If Selena Kensington learned, she wouldn’t be so kind as to help Roxanne Sutton.
Hence, Sidney Dalton concluded Roxanne Sutton surely wouldn’t dare tell Selena Kensington about the Kensington Family.
Thus, Sidney Dalton calmly sat opposite Roxanne Sutton.
After the coffee shop waiter left, Sidney Dalton looked up at Roxanne Sutton across from him, "What do you want to see for?"
Roxanne Sutton stirred the coffee in her cup, her head lowered, preventing Sidney Dalton from seeing the look in her eyes at that mont.
After a while, she looked up.
"Aren’t you curious why I suddenly ca back and... found Selena Kensington as my patron?"
Upon hearing Roxanne Sutton ask this, Sidney Dalton was instead more convinced of Roxanne Sutton’s desire to return to his side.
If Selena Kensington knew Sidney Dalton’s thoughts, she would probably burst out laughing.
All these years, Roxanne Sutton’s thorough compliance and admiration for him created such a self-conceited mindset.
"You want to co back to ?"
Sidney Dalton spoke, a trace of pride in his eyebrows.
"...?"
Roxanne Sutton’s inner tranquility was abruptly broken by Sidney Dalton’s statent.
She raised her head in disbelief, looking at Sidney Dalton.
Seeing Roxanne Sutton in this state, Sidney Dalton’s heart flashed a sense of clarity.
But in the next second, the words Roxanne Sutton uttered darkened his expression.
Roxanne Sutton, having moved beyond shock, flashed a hint of ridicule in her eyes and rcilessly said, "What, did the engagent failure shock you that much? You didn’t even bring your brain out?!"
This was the first ti Sidney Dalton had seen such an aggressive and sharp-tongued Roxanne Sutton.
For a mont, he was even stunned for a few seconds.
Upon realizing, his face sank.
Previously, Roxanne Sutton wouldn’t have dared speak to him like this.
Before, Roxanne Sutton always embodied the gentle and delicate deanor of a little bird before him.
When had she dared speak to him so venomously?
"Are you insane?"
Sidney Dalton frowned, speaking in a deep voice.
If Roxanne Sutton truly wished to return to him, how could she dare speak this way?
Even if it was so reverse psychology, it shouldn’t be like this.
After Roxanne Sutton said that sentence, even Sidney Dalton’s conceited heart realized.
Roxanne Sutton seed not to have sought reconciliation with him.
And upon seeing a hint of change in Sidney Dalton’s expression, Roxanne Sutton understood.
Having been by Sidney Dalton’s side for many years, she was quite familiar with so of his looks and gestures.
Thus, she could sowhat guess what was in Sidney Dalton’s mind.
Sidney Dalton confidently assud her reason for asking him out was to win him back.
Thinking Sidney Dalton could have such a thought, Roxanne Sutton felt both ridicule and disbelief.
There was a ti when the high-spirited man she had once admired to the point of chasing blindly had turned into such a self-serving, arrogant man.
Roxanne Sutton was montarily uncertain whether to lant the ruthlessness of ti or acknowledge Sidney Dalton was like this all along, only she was too young before, and her perspective too biased.
Realizing Sidney Dalton was like this, any remaining affection Roxanne Sutton had completely faded away.
She relaxed and leaned against the sofa in the booth.
"You overthink. I only want to ask you one final question."
Roxanne Sutton spoke coldly, no longer carrying the gentleness she once showed Sidney Dalton.
Sidney Dalton’s brows furrowed slightly, unfamiliar with Roxanne Sutton’s sudden cold deanor.
But he quickly brushed aside the feeling, "What question."
"When did you start changing."
Roxanne Sutton spoke calmly.
It seed she was asking a trivial question.
Sidney Dalton felt sowhat odd being asked this but still responded, "I don’t understand what you an."
"You know."
Roxanne Sutton imdiately replied.
Having said that, she didn’t wait for Sidney Dalton to answer and continued on her own.
