Reborn as the Sweetheart of a Paranoid Boss

Chapter 722: Sidney Dalton’s Public Trial

During the time Selena Kensington recuperated at the main residence, the Dalton Family also underwent a reshuffle due to Samuel Dalton’s appointment.

The old Dalton patriarch gradually started involving Samuel Dalton in the internal affairs of The Dalton Group.

Initially, Selena Kensington was worried that Samuel Dalton might face numerous obstacles when taking over the Dalton affairs.

After all, many people within The Dalton Group had once followed the old patriarch to build the Dalton Family’s current status.

And Samuel Dalton was too young, having quite shallow experience in their eyes.

This naturally led to some discontent among the senior members of The Dalton Group toward Samuel Dalton’s leadership.

However, it’s been two days since Samuel Dalton took the position of Family Head, and Selena Kensington has never heard any negative rumors from within the Dalton Family.

In fact, after the old patriarch announced his retirement, he leisurely joined the retirement club of old masters Norwood and Shen.

"..."

When Selena Kensington heard this from old master Norwood, she remained silent for a long time.

So this old Dalton patriarch has long been eager to retire?

It’s just that Samuel Dalton was previously helping Mrs. Anna stabilize forces outside The Southern Domain, so the old patriarch kept waiting for so long.

Online discussions about Sidney Dalton’s issues have become increasingly intense, with more and more people participating and starting to denounce Sidney Dalton.

The reason is none other than this: In these three days, Julian Jennings’ fans have largely gathered the former old fans.

You should know that Julian Jennings’ fans had already formed a massive number over ten years ago, and today, that is still an unbeatable top-tier flow.

Even after more than a decade, one-third of those old fans have been rallied back.

Furthermore, since the things Sidney Dalton had done were exposed online, former victims or their family members, or employees of the company targeted by Sidney Dalton, many people stood up due to unemployment.

They shared their stories online, every word filled with tears.

This resonated with many people.

With the support of these individuals, the online denouncement of Sidney Dalton reached its peak.

[Such a person does not deserve to be Radiance’s CEO!!]

[It is hard to imagine that someone so driven by greed and unscrupulous methods could be in control of such a large entertainment company like Radiance!]

[I want to know if the rules within Radiance are extremely harsh! Exerting maximum pressure to extract artists’ value for economic gain!]

[I can’t wait to watch tomorrow’s public trial!!]

[For someone violating The Empire’s rules, the public will have no tolerance for him!]

Amidst public denunciations came the third day.

On the day when the Safety Bureau conducted the public trial of Sidney Dalton.

Selena Kensington did not attend in person but watched the live broadcast online like most netizens.

On this day, Sterling Norwood accompanied her, watching together.

The Safety Bureau’s live broadcast started from when they took Sidney Dalton out of the bureau.

Because Sidney Dalton’s case stirred so much attention, many citizens of Aethelgard gathered in front of the Safety Bureau upon learning that today was the public trial day.

Included among them was Roxanne Sutton.

She hid in the crowd, disguising her face, so people around did not recognize her.

Compared to the indignant people around her, her expression was remarkably calm.

But like those around her, her gaze was fixed on the entrance of the Safety Bureau.

Watching the live broadcast, Selena Kensington instantly spotted Roxanne Sutton hidden among the crowd through the camera’s sweep.

Despite Roxanne Sutton’s disguise, Selena Kensington easily recognized her.

Roxanne Sutton’s eyes betrayed her.

Selena Kensington was a bit surprised to see Roxanne Sutton at the scene.

She inevitably felt a bit emotional.

She tugged on Sterling Norwood’s sleeve, whispering, "Roxanne is there too."

Sterling Norwood responded by slightly lowering his eyes, "Hmm."

He simply acknowledged.

He showed no interest in why Roxanne Sutton would be there.

Selena Kensington didn’t expect Sterling Norwood to have any other reaction; she just habitually wanted to talk to him about this.

After that, Selena Kensington continued watching the movements of the live broadcast online.

Meanwhile, the citizens waiting outside the Safety Bureau waited for a while, and then the bureau personnel came out.

Due to the high interest in Sidney Dalton’s matter, the Safety Bureau sent out quite a few people to escort him to the trial site.

After the bureau personnel came out, Sidney Dalton was also escorted by two Safety Bureau officers.

At the Safety Bureau’s entrance, vehicles were parked, tasked with transporting him to the trial site.

Simultaneously, there were two columns of motorcyclists beside them.

Public discussions reached a peak when Sidney Dalton came out.

"Is he the one who ruined others’ families?!"

"...I didn’t expect someone who looks dashing to be rotten inside!"

"This scumbag deserves a harsh sentence!!"

"Finally, the trial day has arrived! I can’t wait!"

Although public emotions soared due to Sidney Dalton’s appearance.

Many expressed their indignation openly.

Sidney Dalton, however, remained unresponsive.

He kept his head down and followed the Safety Bureau personnel out.

Since he refused to lift his head, the citizens couldn’t see his facial expression.

Despite their anger, Aethelgard citizens, having lived in this environment for so long, possessed high moral qualities. Hence, even amidst their fury, they didn’t resort to throwing rotten vegetables or eggs at Sidney Dalton.

They only looked at Sidney Dalton with angry eyes.

"So he’s out..."

Selena Kensington watched the camera turn towards Sidney Dalton and murmured indifferently.

As Sidney Dalton came out, the black minivan parked nearby started to move.

They drove to the roadside, parking right behind Roxanne Sutton.

Roxanne Sutton heard the noise and instinctively turned around to glance.

She then saw the car door open and the person in the driver’s seat.

He wore a baseball cap and mask, revealing only his eyes.

Seeing those eyes, Roxanne Sutton froze.

A sudden chill surged up her back.

The person also saw her but simply sneered disdainfully.

He seemed not to care about Roxanne Sutton at all.

Roxanne Sutton wanted to question further but realized that after pulling out the vehicle, the man immediately exited, hurried onto another road, and quickly left.

His movements were swift and skilled, giving Roxanne Sutton no chance to speak.
