A Surprising Twist of Fates (Sierra and Theo) novel Chapter 261

"Enough!" Edward's voice rang out. "Benson was the one who wronged Sierra. Now that she's moved on, what right do you have to complain? If anyone's to blame, it's him for not cherishing her when he had the chance."

Benson stood frozen, color drained from his face, his mind swirling with painful memories of their once-happy moments.

Meanwhile, Janet's anger flared as she glared at Theo, her teeth clenched.

The shares they had been so close to obtaining were now lost, slipping away right in front of her. The realization filled her with boiling resentment.

"No... This isn't real. Cee, you're lying, aren't you? You're just saying this to punish me."

Benson couldn't bring himself to accept it, his eyes silently pleading for a different answer.

However, instead of receiving Sierra's comfort, he was met with the cold reality of two marriage certificates.

"We just got married," Sierra remarked. "From now on, you'll call me 'Aunt Sierra'."

Benson picked up one of the certificates and glanced at the photo. The sight struck him like a bolt of lightning, leaving him frozen in shock.

"It's real... It's really real..."

As she watched Benson fall apart, Janet was torn between anger and sympathy, her emotions a tangled mess.

Holding the other marriage certificate, Edward couldn't help but grin, a satisfied smirk spreading across his face.

"Good! Sierra, if he ever mistreats you, come straight to me. I will take care of it!"

Theo chimed in, "She's not supposed to call you Grandpa anymore."

Edward's smile wavered for a moment, and he shot Theo an exasperated look. For years, everyone had assumed Sierra would marry Benson, and her place in the family had always been tied to him.

But now, with her marriage to Theo, everything had shifted.

As Edward looked at Sierra's sweet face, awkwardness flickered across his expression.

His long-expected granddaughter-in-law had just become his daughter-in-law. That would definitely take some getting used to.

As Sierra and Edward hesitated over how to address each other, Benson suddenly slammed the marriage certificate onto the table, his expression filled with disbelief and frustration.

"Cee, why are you doing this to me?
