Chapter 127: Chapter 127
But this time, Miles Grant didn’t let go of her, instead making her look directly into his eyes: "Don’t you want Landon Lawson to like you? Don’t you want to be with him?"
"Of course I do, as long as I can be with him, I’m willing to do whatever it takes." Vera Yates hesitated for a moment and then quickly answered.
Miles Grant lowered his head, a bitter smile on his lips, knowing well that Vera Yates had feelings for Landon Lawson, yet he still asked such a naïve question.
"Do you know why Landon Lawson is leaving so late? It’s to go find Sienna Quinn. If you still don’t agree to that matter, he’s really going to be taken away."
Vera Yates froze for a moment, she knew that Landon Lawson was leaving so late just to find Sienna Quinn and that little bastard.
Her pristine teeth bit into her lip, pretending to ponder for a long while before finally nodding.
"Alright... alright then!"
Seeing Vera Yates nod, Miles Grant finally said, "I promised you, whatever you want, I’ll help you get it." The latest_epɪ_sodes are on_the NoveIＦire.net
The man’s pupils were filled with a sinister aura, "Sienna Quinn, don’t blame me, who told you to take the person Vera wants? You can only blame yourself."
Sienna Quinn, who was fast asleep, sneezed loudly, waking herself up.
She opened her eyes, looked at the darkened sky and the peaceful breathing of Evan Quinn in her arms, and smiled contentedly, giving Evan’s little face a gentle kiss.
Carefully placing him on the bed and tucking him in, she then quietly tiptoed out of Evan’s room.
As soon as Sienna Quinn stepped out of the room, she felt something was amiss, she sensed a third breathing sound in the room, her gaze swiftly shifting to the living room, where someone sat in the dark.
Who could it be? Could it be someone sent by Vera Yates? Is she already unable to resist making a move against her?
Sienna Quinn tiptoed over, grabbed the vase placed beside her, clutching it tightly in her hand, Chloe was still asleep in the room, she would absolutely not allow anyone to harm her child, even if it meant risking her life today, she must protect Evan, no one could harm her son.
Step by step she walked over, her heartbeat quickening, her breath becoming more rapid, the hand holding the vase trembled uncontrollably.
Sienna Quinn approached the man, swung the vase up, bit her lip, squeezed her eyes shut, and swung it towards the man.
But instead of the sound of the vase shattering, it was caught by the man’s hand.
She thought to herself it wasn’t good, she had been outmaneuvered by the opponent.
Just as she was about to shout, the man slightly applied force, pulling Sienna into his embrace.
Sienna only felt herself falling into a warm embrace, the vase in her hand instantly controlled.
"Who are you? Who sent you here? Was it Vera Yates or Miles Grant, or was it my Quinn Family?"
Sienna Quinn chuckled sarcastically, her voice holding undisguised ridicule.
The man holding her in his arms furrowed his brows slightly, not speaking, only increasing the strength of his grip.
The pain from her wrist made Sienna’s mouth twitch a little, was this a threat?
It seemed someone really sent him here to deal with her.
Sienna, unflustered in the face of danger, was a very calm person, even in such a moment, Evan was still in the room, Sienna couldn’t afford to be impulsive, she must protect him no matter what.
Seeing the person behind her not speaking for ages, only restraining her without any action, her lively eyes turned, her mind rapidly processing, she slowly spoke: "You’re also in it for the money, right? I’m not concerned with how much they offered you, I’ll give you double."
The amount needed to hire a hitman can’t be cheap, and the allure of a double offer wasn’t small either.
Even if paying it caused her heartache, all these concerns were trivial compared to her life.
She worked so hard to earn money, just to provide Evan with a good living environment.
But the prerequisite for good conditions is to stay alive.
But this person still didn’t speak, making Sienna frown, what did he want by not speaking or moving?
Without giving Sienna time to process, in the midst of a surprised shout, her body was heavily thrown onto the sofa.
This throw made her dizzy, before Sienna could speak, a heavy male presence rushed at her.
"Do you know who I am? I am Landon Lawson’s ex-wife, and if you touch me, you’re looking at spending the rest of your life in prison; either you kill me or wait for me to kill you!"
In her anger, Sienna had forgotten she couldn’t scare him.
Caught in a corner, this man could probably do something drastic, like silencing her forever, she regretted saying that, but the man suppressing her didn’t make any subsequent moves, under the dim moonlight, she could see the man staring straight at her.
Sienna felt creeped out by his gaze.
"Did you just say you’re my ex-wife? Let me correct you, you’re not my ex-wife, you’re my wife!"
A deep voice sounded in her ear.
Sienna was all too familiar with this voice, but why was he here?
Appearing at her house in the middle of the night?
Landon Lawson listened to the woman’s slightly shocked voice, a smile slowly forming on his lips in the dark.
Sienna came to her senses, her voice grew colder: "Landon Lawson, won’t you let go of me yet?"
"Let go of you? I thought you were pretty fierce just now!"
Landon Lawson squinted his eyes, she actually wanted to smash him with a vase... if not for his quick reflexes, he’d be in the hospital by now from her vase attack.
Sienna felt a little guilty from Landon Lawson’s words, looked away, afraid to meet his eyes, "Who told you to enter my house quietly? What if you were a bad person? If anything really happened, I’d be defending myself."
Watching Sienna speak so righteously, the man coldly chuckled.
"Don’t forget, you’re still my wife right now."
Reminded by Landon Lawson, Sienna gritted her teeth in anger, feeling he was being totally unreasonable.
How could this be held against her? And he said it so righteously.
"We’ve been separated for five years, legally, if we’re separated for over two years, I can file for divorce, I can divorce you anytime."
Looking at Sienna’s angry eyes, Landon Lawson coldly laughed: "Is that a threat to me? As long as I don’t want to divorce you, you can’t make it happen."
Sienna glared at him, teeth clenched in anger.
Seeing her angry little face, Landon Lawson’s lips curled into a handsome smile.
For some reason, every time he saw her furious expression, it made him feel happy. At least he could still stir an emotional reaction in her.
Three minutes later, after Sienna closed Evan’s room door, she turned on the living room light, seeing the man sitting upright on the sofa, looking righteous, completely oblivious to his overnight intrusion into a private house.
