Chapter 162: Chapter 162

"Vera Yates?" Sean Carter was taken aback for a moment. In truth, he knew a bit about Vera Yates. After all, in this city, there were only a few people whom Sienna Quinn could truly trust, and Sean Carter just happened to be one of them.

Sienna’s return this time was to exact revenge, and Vera Yates was the first on her list. But unexpectedly, before she could take action against Vera, Sienna ended up getting hurt first? Thɪs chapter is updated by novelFɪre.net

Just as Sean Carter furrowed his brows, Evan Quinn’s phone started ringing again. The incessantly vibrating phone caused Evan Quinn to frown, his good-looking brows creased. He picked up the phone and looked at the caller ID, storming off with the phone in hand, angrily hitting the answer button.

"What the hell do you want?"

Evan really couldn’t understand why a dignified CEO would keep calling him so persistently. Didn’t he have the arrogance of a CEO?

"Where are you right now?" Landon Lawson’s cold voice slowly came through. Hearing the familiar voice of the man, Evan’s throat tightened. He really didn’t understand why he was making this call. Shouldn’t he be going to check on that woman at this time?

Why appear here then?

He had initially thought about letting him be with Mom, but now it seemed there was no need for them to be together. Someone who doesn’t care about Mom — that’s the end of it.

Sean Carter came back to his senses, looking at Evan Quinn’s back facing him. Without asking, he knew who Evan was on the phone with. His brows tightened, and after thinking for a moment, he picked up his phone and went into the room, dialing a familiar overseas number.

No matter how busy Felix Orwell was, he would call Sean Carter every day to inquire about Sienna’s situation. He had also given Sean a critical instruction: if anything happened to Sienna, to inform him immediately, regardless of what happened, without holding back on anything, ensuring that Sienna’s safety was the main priority.

It was still the middle of the night for Felix Orwell when the phone rang. It really wasn’t the best timing, as Felix had just fallen asleep not long ago, only to be rudely awakened by the phone’s ringtone.

However, Felix wasn’t angry at this moment. Instead, he opened his eyes, flipped over, and grabbed his phone. As expected, it was a call from back home.

His brows furrowed, and all the smiles and jokes disappeared in an instant. Felix quietly mumbled, "Sean Carter, you better have something to say, or I definitely won’t let this brat off for interrupting my sweet dreams."

Felix was known for his unruly and carefree nature, with a devil-may-care attitude, and he had a great relationship with Sean Carter. Despite their superior-subordinate dynamics, they acted more like buddies.

Although he wanted to make him present something significant, unless it was something important, Sean Carter wouldn’t easily make this call. But if he did, did that mean something had happened to Sienna?

"I suggest you better have some significant news, or if what you tell me is unimportant, don’t blame me for punishing you." Felix was in the middle of a sweet dream when Sean Carter’s call woke him up.

Is it true that uninvited guests never show up at the Three-Treasure Hall? Felix was not someone with a good temper.

Felix’s voice came through the phone, laden with complaint, causing Sean Carter to shiver.

Does he have to threaten people ? Clearly, he had said to inform him of any matters concerning Sienna, regardless of the importance, and to notify him of everything! How could he turn hostile and deny it now?

Sean Carter twitched the corners of his mouth. It seemed that Sienna’s situation was indeed a hot potato, not easy to handle. Not only did he have to do it well, but he also had to endure Felix Orwell’s threats at all times.

At the thought of his superior, Sean shuddered.

"Sienna got injured."

Felix’s voice immediately rose, filled with anger.

He had only taken a nap. Just yesterday, Sean Carter had spoken to him on the phone, confirming Sienna was perfectly fine. How did she get injured now?

And he wasn’t even informed? This unknown feeling made him feel powerless. Right now, he’s in France, and even though Sienna was also in France, regardless of how difficult things were, Felix would always ensure her safety.

But now, she’s in the country while he’s abroad.

No matter how capable he was, it was of no avail.

Moreover, even if he wanted to return home, the old man at home was still disagreeing.

"Is her injury serious? Did she go to the hospital?" Felix was so agitated that he sat up on the bed, lit a cigarette, and took a fierce puff. No, he couldn’t stay still. He needed to fly back immediately. He couldn’t bear to see the woman he cared about being bullied .

He promised to protect her.

How many days has it been since she returned? She’s already injured? If this continued, wouldn’t it cost her life? Felix couldn’t imagine what he would do if Sienna was harmed by those ruthless people.

"I’m flying back now."

"Wait, don’t be in such a rush! Sienna only got a scratch on her hand, and it’s nothing serious. Moreover, you have an agreement with the old man. If you suddenly decide to return without notice, the old man will drag you back."

"Are you sure? Just her hand?" Felix asked suspiciously, thinking Sean was just trying to comfort him.

"I’m sure; do you think I’d lie to you? Plus, Sienna has already been treated. I just saw her today." Sean quickly reassured Felix. If he delayed any longer, who knew what Felix might do, given his temperament.

Felix finally sighed with relief, but only for a fleeting moment.

"What exactly happened? Explain everything! Leave nothing out!" The furious Felix was so intimidating that even Sean found it frightening.

Since knowing Sean, he had never seen Felix this angry. It sent chills down his spine, but he should have known that anything involving Sienna would make this man exceptionally volatile. Felix, known for his disregard for everything, was practically a formidable demon king.

Not daring to slack off, Sean quickly relayed all he knew and the information he gathered from Evan Quinn to Felix.

Felix, still in France, had veins popping on his arm as he held the phone, his eyes flickering with intense anger.

He couldn’t believe how ruthless Landon Lawson was. Regardless of everything, Sienna was his ex-wife. Yet, instead of siding with his ex-wife and child, he supported another woman. Is this really something a man would do?
