Anthony and Sienna entered into marriage to fulfill Anthony’s grandfather’s wish, despite Anthony being in love with Rylee. Sienna felt like an outsider in Anthony’s life. While the old man was alive, Anthony maintained a facade of politeness towards Sienna, but after his passing, Sienna’s troubles began.
Realizing that her marriage to Anthony paled in comparison to Rylee’s significance in his life, Sienna decided to seek a divorce, only to discover she was pregnant.
Anthony’s treatment towards her grew even more callous, eventually forcing Sienna out of their home to care for Rylee. Enduring this mistreatment silently, Sienna bore her suffering alone.
With time, Sienna uncovered that Rylee was not as innocent as she had believed, leading her to suspect that the misfortunes she endured were part of a deliberate scheme.
Frowning, he poked his head out. “You’re pregnant. How could you eat this? Is Anthony mistreating you?” I ignored his remark. After clearing up the trash, I started the engine and prepared to head home. He parked his car right in front of mine, blocking my way out. “Sienna, come on. Let’s have dinner together!”…
I was speechless. “No.” Afraid he wouldn’t believe me, I added, “I need your help.” “What is it?” he responded without looking at me. He was evidently engrossed in the ongoing conversation inside Anthony’s office. “I don’t feel well these days. Can you find out if my child is affected?” I asked. As he was…
My eyes snapped open in confusion. He pulled me in for a warm hug before saying, “Let’s go down together!” It was a command that left no room for discussion. Picking me up, he left the bedroom. Downstairs, Rylee had already showered, her hair half-dried. She was sitting in the living room with Joe next…
Suddenly, Anthony appeared and stood between the vehicle and Rylee. His expression was dark. I immediately slammed on the brakes in a daze. For a moment there, I really wanted Rylee dead. Anthony strode to my vehicle and pulled me down menacingly. “Sienna, what are you doing?” I crumbled weakly to the ground. He grabbed…
It was a call from Stacey, and she seemed quite anxious. “Ms. Stanhope, Harrison Credit has liaised with the Finance Department. What about Quinn Corporation?” I was aware that I might not make the right decisions in my current state. Thus, I instructed her, “Contact AC Credit now and hand over Quinn Corporation’s audit to…
“Anything?” “Anthony didn’t go home, right?” He seemed to be gloating as he continued, “You thought that you would be treated differently after you got pregnant, didn’t you? Honestly, I really pity you. Your husband is sleeping with another woman now while you are left alone at home. Are you upset?” I pinched my glabella…
By the time Anthony and Joe hurried in, they saw Rylee lying on the ground in a disheveled state with blood on her forehead. Meanwhile, I remained intact and stood condescendingly in front of Rylee. D*mn it! What a waste of talent that she didn’t become an actress! “Rylee, are you all right?” Joe immediately…
Cameron shook her head and quickly added, “That’s the problem, Mr. Clinton. I was just sharing this with Mrs. Featherstone the other day. Bless her, such a nice girl. She actually got a friend of hers to go looking for it. And guess what happened? Her friend’s now being locked up at the police station!”…
It was times like this that made me realize the cold hard truth of the invisible caste system that governed this society. The whole network was complicated yet interconnected. It would be nearly impossible for me to gather enough evidence to free Macy all by myself. I thought Anthony would be at one of these…
“You think you’re better than me!” He was not prepared for my counterattack and now looked like he had swallowed a bitter pill, fumbling for more insults. At that moment, the elevator door opened, and I shot him one last dirty look. “I sincerely hope to see you upgrade from a second-rated bootlicker to a…
