Chapter 1124: Disruption
Sienna lifted her gaze slightly to meet his eyes, saying, "If that's howyou feel, I can't help it. After all, whether I lost the King family or theKing family lost me, you already have a conclusion in your heart. Whygo through the trouble of asking me again? Don't you think it's tiring?"Sienna stared at Mario expressionlessly. Without waiting for him tospeak, she continued, "If you're here to lecture me, is it finished now?Can I goin?"
"Sienna!!!" Mario shouted in anger. The tone was naturally not light. If itweren't for the good sound insulation of the house, I think people insidewould probably have come running out by now.
Sienna looked at Mario indifferently. She said, “I'm here. There's noneed to shout so loudly."
“Do you now feel invincible with the Ward family backing you up?""Probably!
Mario snorted, "Do you think the Ward family can protect you for howlong? Do you think the Ward family will stand by you all the time? Ifyour crisis threatens the Ward family's interests, will they still protectyou?"
Mario's words were full of threats. His face was cold, and he stared atSienna, his emotions showing calculation and menace.
Sienna stood still for a long time, her face remained cool.
The two of them silently faced each other, neither saying a word. Aftersome time, Sienna’s voice slowly sounded, "What do you want?""What I want, you don't know? My goal has always been one. If youwant everyone to be safe, come back with me to Flento City. Theneveryone will be fine." Mario said indifferently, his gaze always fixed onher face without wavering.
Sienna didn't speak. Her face remained expressionless.
After a long time, Mario's voice slowly sounded, "I'll give you time tothink. Consider how you want to choose."
After speaking, Mario didn't linger any longer. He turned and walkedtowards his car.
Watching his retreating figure, Sienna's expression finally softened abit. She bit her lip slightly and spoke slowly, "Mario, is it that you willonly give up your current decisions and actions if I disappear from thisworld? Will everyone truly be okay then?"
Mario suddenly turned around, his face stiff, his eyes enveloped incoldness. He furrowed his brows, staring at Sienna without saying aword. He said, "You better not have any thoughts like that. Don't thinkyou can force me to compromise with such ideas, Sienna. Youunderstand my temper. For certain things that cross my bottom line, Iwill not hesitate to destroy everything."
He said indifferently, his expression returning to coldness. Then he gotinto the car.
The car didn't stop for long and soon started the engine, driving awayfrom the Ward's mansion. Sienna, however, stood there without movinguntil Rex walked out from inside the house.
Rex gently reached out to stop her shoulder, and she didn't bother tomeet his gaze, simply leaning into his embrace.
Neither of them spoke, just quietly holding each other, lingering in thatmoment until Rex softly spoke, “Let's go home!"
Hearing his voice, tears welled up in Sienna's eyes. She noddedslightly, "Okay."
He held Sienna’s hand as they got into the car together. It was onlyafter leaving the Ward's mansion that Sienna, belatedly, remembered.She looked at Rex and asked, "We didn't even say anything to Momand Dad. Will they think I'm rude?"
Rex smirked, teasing her, "Should we go back and tell them now?"Sienna sighed, "It feels too late to go back now, right?"
"Then let's not say anything. They're easy-going; they won't mind. So,don't stress about it, okay?"
Sienna nodded lightly, then slumped into the seat, utterly drained. Shesighed silently, her voice weak, "Mom and Dad must be really worriedtonight.”
"They won't be. Don't overthink it. No matter what happens, I'm here,so don't worry about anything, okay?"
Sienna naturally understood this, so she nodded gently. Her face,however, showed no reduction in emotion.
The two returned to Franklin Bay. Neither Sienna nor Rex brought upwhat Mario had said earlier. They respected each other's personalspace, ensuring no added pressure.
While Rex was in the shower, Sienna couldn't resist calling Camille.She told Camille about tonight's events. Camille seemed unsurprised,saying, "He would've found the Ward family sooner or later. After all,your relationship was spread throughout the business district last night,wasn't it? If the Ward family pretends not to know, Mario will replacesomething to say. Now the Ward family has given you face and givenMario face. What else can he say?"
"So, you're not surprised? Or did you know in advance? Did Rex tellAyan?"
“Yeah, about an hour ago. He even asked Ayan if he wanted to beat upMario. After all, it's a simple matter to beat someone up on your ownturf in Hance City."
Sienna couldn't help but laugh. She said, "He wants to use violence tosolve this?"
"Probably thinks that a bit of violence will drive Mario out of Hance City.If that's what it takes, he might actually do it!" Camille respondedcasually, actually replaceing the situation quite a headache. Mario wasundeniably troublesome. Now that he's in Hance City, it undoubtedlybrings a lot of pressure to both Sienna and Rex.
Although Sienna could assure herself that she wouldn't be swayed byMario, sometimes things were beyond her control. If she and Rex hadany conflicts or grievances, Mario would be the ultimate winner.Camille sighed silently, lightly pursing her lips, and asked, "Sienna,have you... thought about what to do?"
Sienna, subconsciously, was momentarily stunned. She quietlyrepeated the words Camille had asked. What should she do?
Sienna said, "I don't know what to do. For now, I can only take it onestep at a time, right?"
Camille expressed her concern, "He's in Hance City now. I'm worriedthat if you're not careful, he might easily manipulate you. If you getpregnant at this time, will he give up?"
Camille could only think of this one solution because she believed thatif Sienna were pregnant with a child, Mario might not go too far inpressuring her.
However, Sienna replied, "I've thought about it, but if I'm reallypregnant, and he still persists, I might not even be able to protect thechild.”
Sienna continued, "I've made up my mind. I plan to contact the Kingfamily and hope they can call her back!"
"Now it seems that's the only option. But you can't solely rely on theKing family because Mario is in charge there. If the King family canreally have someone restraining him, he wouldn't have come to HanceCity today,” Camille whispered, hoping Sienna would be more cautious.This way, there would be a plan in case of any unexpected situation.The two discussed this topic for a long time, but neither had manysolutions. Sienna even asked Camille, "Can you ask Mr. Simpson forhelp, think of a way for me? Guess what Mario will do next?"
“Yeah, I'll ask, but don't expect too much. Mario hasn't had muchcontact with him, so he doesn't know enough. Actually, you know himthe best. You have a better chance of dealing with him." Camille calmlyreassured Sienna not to think too much for now. Even if there's nosolution, it doesn't mean he'll resort to kidnapping, right?
Sienna smiled awkwardly, saying, "He has done things like this before.Only when he replaces a weakness, he has a way to force me to comply.Unless I can replace his weakness first, I don't know how much chance Ihave to win."
