A Surprising Twist of Fates (Sierra and Theo) novel Chapter 206

In the living room, Vera sat nervously on the couch, occasionally glancing toward the door. Her fingers were unconsciously clenched.

Sierra had called earlier, saying she was coming over.

She rarely returned to the Shaw residence, so why did she suddenly decide to come back today?

Vera's heart tightened. How bad was Sierra's injury?

As a mother, she felt utterly useless. Her daughter had been hurt, yet she hadn't even been able to visit her.

Vera felt a deep sense of guilt. She quietly turned her head to glance at William, who was sitting on the other sofa with a serious expression. She pressed her lips together, still feeling the lingering pain from her injuries.

Sierra had specifically mentioned wanting to see William on the phone, but she wasn't sure what Sierra was up to.

As Vera was thinking this, she noticed someone enter and quickly stood up. Seeing it was Sierra, she hurried over. "Cee, are you alright?"

Her worried gaze landed on Sierra's shoulder.

Sierra gently grasped her mother's outstretched hand and nodded her head slightly. "I'm fine, Mom. What about you?"

Her eyes filled with concern as she noticed the wound on Vera's wrist. Her expression changed instantly, and her sharp, cold gaze shot like a knife toward William, who was sitting on the couch.

"What are you looking at?" William sneered. "This is the consequence of your disobedience!"

He gave a dismissive hum, and despite her angry gaze, he didn't feel he had done anything wrong.

Vera panicked, quickly trying to de-escalate. "Cee, I'm fine. It's already healing."

Sierra looked at Vera's injury with pain. Seeing the unusual swelling on Vera's face, she couldn't help but feel the urge to beat William up.
