[Selie Stays Slim]: But what?

After that, Selena Kensington saw the message from Iris Sinclair.

[Iris Sinclair]: I can’t quite describe the feeling... Anyway, I have a strange sensation about this cousin I’ve barely met.

[Iris Sinclair]: Maybe it’s her character being too cold, like a machine without any emotions. I don’t like talking to her, and... Every time I meet her gaze, I get a weird feeling that makes my hair stand on end...

[Iris Sinclair]: I don’t know if it’s a typical coldness for all researchers, or her eccentricity. In any case, I can’t say I dislike her, but I definitely can’t bring myself to like this cousin.

Selena Kensington looked at the messages from Iris Sinclair, and she could basically confirm that Zoe Sinclair was peculiar.

As for precisely what was odd, she’d have to wait until she saw Zoe to probe further.

[Selie Stays Slim]: Maybe it’s because you haven’t seen each other for a long time, so there’s some unfamiliarity.

Selena Kensington changed the topic.

[Iris Sinclair]: What you said might be possible as well.

Selena Kensington and Iris Sinclair continued to exchange polite remarks for a while, then ended their conversation.

Selena Kensington got up from the deck chair, intending to go downstairs to see if there was anything to eat, when she received a call from Hugh Kensington.

"Sis, Felicity’s awake!"

The urgency and excitement came through Hugh Kensington’s words.

Selena Kensington paused, then quickly asked, "When did she wake up?!"

Hugh Kensington: "Just now. The doctor is doing an examination on her right now."

Feeling a bit surprised by Felicity Dalton’s awakening, Selena Kensington calmed down slightly after hearing about the examination. "Finish the examination first and see if there are any after-effects. I’ll come over a bit later."

Hugh Kensington’s voice carried joy with a hint of concern: "If you’re not convenient, don’t come over."

Hugh Kensington was aware Selena Kensington was no longer with her previously unnoticeable belly appearance, fearing she’d bump into things if she went out.

Added to that was Felicity Dalton’s situation, making Hugh Kensington uneasy about Selena Kensington going out alone. 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

"It’s okay, your brother-in-law is also here."

Selena Kensington casually replied.

Upon hearing that Sterling Norwood was also there, Hugh Kensington didn’t object further.

"Alright then, travel safe."

Seeing Selena Kensington respond after him, Hugh Kensington immediately opened his mouth, causing Selena Kensington to feel a bit disgruntled.

"Hugh, how come I never realized you can be so hypocritical..."

Selena Kensington spoke with a slight resentment.

"..."

Hugh Kensington fell silent for a moment upon hearing her words.

Then, he unusually earnestly said, "Ask yourself. Do you have the awareness of being a pregnant woman? Let alone, even if I agree, your brother-in-law wouldn’t let you go out alone."

"Sorry to disturb, goodbye."

Selena Kensington was rendered speechless, promptly and wittingly replied, and then hung up the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Selena Kensington went to find Sterling Norwood.

Naturally, Sterling Norwood was located in the study.

At the study door, Selena Kensington slyly opened a small gap, peeking her head through.

As Selena Kensington opened the study door, Sterling Norwood noticed.

Seeing the little head sneaking a glance at the situation inside the study, Sterling Norwood closed the computer in front of him.

"Come here."

Upon hearing Sterling Norwood’s words, Selena Kensington blinked and walked in.

She walked up to Sterling Norwood and settled herself on his lap.

"Bored?"

Sterling Norwood lowered his head, gently pinching the soft flesh on Selena Kensington’s hand.

Selena Kensington slightly shook her head, "No."

"Just now, Hugh called to tell me that Felicity is awake."

Upon hearing this, a flicker of dark light crossed Sterling Norwood’s eyes.

"When did she wake up?"

Sterling Norwood asked in a calm voice.

"Just now, the doctor is still examining her. Should we go to the hospital to check?"

Selena Kensington tilted her head and asked.

Sterling Norwood didn’t immediately respond. Instead, he casually stroked Selena Kensington’s hair, playing with it on his fingertips.

"Zoe Sinclair just returned to the country, and Felicity Dalton awoke at this moment..."

Sterling Norwood spoke deliberately.

Selena Kensington paused, then furrowed her brow slightly.

"Are you suggesting that Felicity waking up now is the work of The Godsbane Organization? But if Felicity has something The Godsbane Organization needs, why did they instruct Yvonne Norwood to hit her, yet then decide to awaken her?"

"Wouldn’t it be easier for them to take Felicity directly?"

Sterling Norwood gently played with the strands of hair in his hand, his actions tender, yet a heavy shadow crossed his eyes, "They are waiting for an opportunity..."

"An opportunity to awaken the secret within Felicity Dalton’s body."

After Sterling Norwood’s explanation, Selena Kensington’s optimism over Felicity Dalton’s awakening diminished considerably.

"Let’s go see it first, see what Felicity’s situation is now."

Selena Kensington thought for a moment and decided to observe Felicity Dalton’s condition first.

"Okay."

Sterling Norwood replied to her.

Then he embraced Selena Kensington from his lap and placed her on the ground.

He patted her back, "Go change clothes."

Selena Kensington held onto his arm, playfully saying, "You go pick it for me."

Sterling Norwood smiled gently and agreed softly, "Alright."

After Selena Kensington finished changing clothes, Sterling Norwood took her out the door heading to Veridia Hospital.

At Veridia Hospital at the moment.

As Felicity Dalton was being taken by the doctor for examination, Hugh Kensington could only wait in the ward.

Due to Felicity Dalton just awakening, the examination was a bit lengthy.

Hugh Kensington waited for over an hour before Felicity Dalton was brought back.

Looking at Felicity Dalton lying on the hospital bed with her face still somewhat pale, Hugh Kensington felt a faint pain within.

"Eat something first."

Hugh Kensington whispered beside Felicity Dalton.

During Felicity Dalton’s coma, she survived through nutritional fluids.

Having just awakened, though not too hungry, her stomach felt a bit hollow.

Upon hearing Hugh Kensington’s words, she lightly nodded her head.

Given Felicity Dalton’s recent awakening and the exhaustion brought on by the examination, Hugh Kensington worried she wouldn’t even have the strength to eat, so he sat at the bedside, feeding her bit by bit.

Despite Felicity Dalton’s pale face and tremulous actions, she occasionally smiled while being fed by Hugh Kensington.

When Selena Kensington and Sterling Norwood entered, they saw such a scene.

Selena Kensington watched her brother thoughtfully tending to his girlfriend, and remarked "Tsk tsk."

Selena Kensington made a sound, catching the attention of the two people in the room.

Felicity Dalton blinked slightly, her expression as usual but showing a hint of resistance deep in her eyes when she looked at Selena Kensington.

Hugh Kensington remained calm, continuing to feed Felicity Dalton.

Felicity Dalton felt a bit uncomfortable, slightly nudging Hugh Kensington’s arm and softly saying, "My sister is here..."

Selena Kensington noticed sharply that Felicity Dalton still seemed a bit unaccustomed to moving around, and her actions were even a bit shaky.
