The Villain’s Redemption - Chapter 334
So uh… what’s happening now?
Why does it feel like Grant’s anger was over the top?
Sienna thought as she watched the nurse put a bandage in Grant’s hand. Yep. He actually punched Liam. Grant wasn’t able to control his anger when Liam told him not to get involved as Sienna was his fiance. And Sienna didn’t expect this to happen.
“Are you going to marry him?” Grant was staring daggers at her. She didn’t understand why he looked angry at her. Was it because she had never mentioned Liam to him before? But why would she? Liam wasn’t her fiance! Moreover, Grant and Sienna weren’t really that close, to begin with. Sure, they are brother and sisters! But before Lily arrive in this body, the two only acted brothers and sisters in name!
“No. And he is not my fiance.”
“You met him abroad?”
“No. We met here. I met him again, abroad.”
“And you didn’t mention this to me?” he hissed.
“…” Why would she tell him about the people that she met? Number one, he wasn’t her boyfriend or her father. Or her boss! And second, this man was like a stranger to her! They weren’t even considered friends! Alright, to be fair, Sienna never had any good friends. Still, their relationship isn’t even close to being friends.
She blinked at him.
Then she blinked again.
She is trying her best to analyze his reaction. He must have seen her stiff reaction as he got up and let out a sigh. “Sorry.”
Well, the apology was really quick, Sienna thought.
“I just didn’t… I didn’t know about it.” He stared at her as if he wanted to say something more. But in the end, he shook his head and took a step back. “I will take care of the lawsuit…”
“Liam fought against you. Even if he try to downplay it as self-defense, I can make it look like he assaulted me first. And you only defended me. So don’t worry about it.”
“I punched him first.”
“You only did it because of what he said. The way I see it, he said something nasty and you just helped out a helpless little lady like me.” Sienna assured him, hoping it was enough to calm him down. Who knows what kind of things would this man do If he gets angry?
Grant nodded but didn’t say anything.
“Grant?”
“Hm?”
“Thank you,” Sienna said. To be honest, she didn’t expect that Grant would react that way. It was a pleasant surprise. And she quite liked it. The original Sienna would have liked it too. “Let’s go, I will take you home.”
“No need. I still needed to settle some things.”
“You— ”
“I am not going to fight with him again.”
Sienna let out a sigh of relief. “I don’t want you to get into trouble.”
Grant stared at her for a few seconds before he nodded. “I understand.” Then he did something that made her froze.
Grant pulled her into a hug.
He wrapped his arms around her then left without saying anything else.
Sienna could only stare at the man’s back as he walked away from her.
That man was acting weird.
“Jane?”
“Miss?”
“Send Liam the images that we have against him. Tell him not to bother me again or those images would magically reach the hands of his haters. Also, tell him not to touch Grant. Or I will sue him for sexual assault.”
“I understand.”
“Ah, one more thing.”
“Miss?”
“Include the image where he was kissing a man.”
“I understand.”
Yes, the reason why Liam wanted to marry her was because of his preferences. He was scared that his family would know he was gay and so he devised a plan to marry someone that his family would like. He wanted to use this fact to hide his secret. On the outside, Liam looked like he was pursuing her.
He told her that he wanted to marry her because he wanted to make his grandparents happy. Sienna needed to ask her people to investigate to know the truth. While Sienna actually understood and somewhat sympathize with the man, she didn’t want to marry someone that she didn’t love.
Well… Sienna never had plans to marry someone in the first place.
“Miss? Are you still leaving?”
“No. Bring me the things that need my immediate attention.” Sienna sighed. She originally wanted to go and see her father and confront him about her parents. But the accident earlier made her realize that she had been too impatient.
Alright, she had been impatient only because she wasn’t that interested in this world.
All she wanted was to leave and talk to Mo Li!
She wanted to ask him how he knew about her name. Until now, she was still confused about the whole thing. Obviously, she was starting to overthink things and is now having anxiety.
After much thought, she decided to just bury herself with her work.
For now….
….
Scarlette
“This was all Sienna’s fault!” Scarlette finished the last drop of vodka and let out a few strings of curses for Sienna. That woman was the reason why Grant actually cut her off!
Now what?
What was she supposed to do now?
All she wanted was a good life! She had planned everything from the start, she planned to get close to Grant, slowly earn his trust until he fell for her. Those were the things that the article said about Grant and Amanda’s love story! The two fell in love after a lot of trials, a lot of difficulties.
Grant was supposed to suffer with Scarlette!
They were supposed to struggle until they fall for each other!
Everything was going well until that Sienna arrived and suddenly changed the plot! She changed everything!
Scarlette hugged the bottle of vodka as she eyed her empty apartment. According to that article, there were times that Grant fell asleep while working with Amanda. And he used to stay in Amanda’s small apartment. He knew how hardworking Amanda was. He knew how she was struggling and yet, she never once complained about life.
The article said that Grant fell for her because of her positive outlook in life. He called her his sunshine.
“Damn him!” Scarlette uttered. “What sunshine?” She already did a lot of things to show Grant that she was someone with a positive outlook, someone that would never complain about life.
But Grant never fell for her!
Why was it so unfair?
