Chapter 319: Chapter 319

Uncertain how much time has passed, James Aldridge has already put on his pants, and Sierra Sinclair is lying on the seat, panting.

"I’ll let you go for today," James Aldridge says a sentence and then turns to leave.

Sierra Sinclair still thinks it’s her service to James Aldridge that led him to let her off.

But who was it that took James Aldridge away? Such that he was so cautious and fearful, Nina Sinclair definitely doesn’t have such capabilities. Then who else is assisting Nina Sinclair?

Eventually, Sierra Sinclair drives herself home.

She currently resides with Vincent Lancaster in the wealthy area of Veridia, in a villa. Besides the servants, there’s only her mother-in-law, Yvette Thompson, living with them.

Before entering, Sierra Sinclair purposely sprays perfume inside the car to suppress the lingering scent of her passion with James Aldridge.

After confirming there are no anomalies on herself, Sierra Sinclair finally opens the door and enters.

In the living room, Yvette Thompson is watching television. Seeing Sierra Sinclair come back, she lifts her head and glances at her, saying, "Sierra, working late again? Have you eaten? I’ll ask Auntie Lian to heat up some food for you."

Sierra Sinclair puts on a smile, "Mother-in-law, no worries, I’ve already eaten."

As she’s about to go upstairs, Yvette Thompson suddenly speaks up, "Sierra, come over for a moment, I have something to say to you."

Sierra Sinclair’s body stiffens, and she walks over to Yvette Thompson.

She sits down in front of Yvette Thompson, "Mother-in-law, what would you like to say to me?"

Yvette Thompson looks at Sierra Sinclair and says gently, "Sierra, the Elysian brand launch is in a few days. Your father will attend, and by then he should be able to see Vincent’s capabilities. See if you can talk to your father about starting a new brand for Vincent, so that you as husband and wife can create some success together."

Upon hearing Yvette Thompson’s words, Sierra Sinclair’s eyes darken.

Yvette Thompson’s outward statement is suggesting she and Vincent Lancaster achieve success together, but in reality, she’s feeling like she’s managing most of the matters at Elysian, putting pressure on Vincent.

If she were truly a Sinclair Family’s daughter, that would be fine, but she isn’t.

Seeing Sierra Sinclair not speaking, Yvette Thompson knows she’s unwilling, so she kindly advises, "Sierra, soon you and Vincent will have your wedding. By then, you’ll all be family. If Vincent’s career does well, it’s good for you too. Don’t you agree?"

Upon hearing Yvette Thompson’s words, Sierra Sinclair feels restless.

She was already in a terrible situation after being kidnapped by James Aldridge. Now Yvette Thompson is pushing her to do these things. If she doesn’t agree, she will surely be upset.

Sierra Sinclair suppresses all her displeasure and gently says, "Mother-in-law, I understand. I’ll talk to my father when he comes."

Hearing Sierra Sinclair agree, Yvette Thompson smiles widely again.

She continues to express concern with a few more sentences, and seeing Sierra Sinclair’s tired expression, she thoughtfully lets her go to her room to rest.

In the room, Vincent Lancaster sees Sierra Sinclair coming in and asks, "Why are you coming back so late?" Thɪs chapter is updatᴇd by No(ᴠ)ᴇlFire.nᴇt

Having been through so much and then pressured by Yvette Thompson to ask Byron Sinclair for favors, Sierra Sinclair remains disregarded by Vincent Lancaster, who speaks to her in such a questioning tone.

Thinking about her misconduct with James Aldridge, Sierra Sinclair inexplicably feels guilty.

She preemptively asserts, "I worked late at the company, exhausted, and now just returned from work. What are you suspicious about? Do you think I did something to betray you?"
