Sienna lifted her gaze slightly to meet his eyes, saying, "If that's how you feel, I can't help it. After all, whether I lost the King family or the King family lost me, you already have a conclusion in your heart. Why go through the trouble of asking me again? Don't you think it's tiring?"
Sienna stared at Mario expressionlessly. Without waiting for him to speak, she continued, "If you're here to lecture me, is it finished now? Can I go in?"
"Sienna!!!" Mario shouted in anger. The tone was naturally not light. If it weren't for the good sound insulation of the house, I think people inside would probably have come running out by now.
Sienna looked at Mario indifferently. She said, "I'm here. There's no need to shout so loudly."
"Do you now feel invincible with the Ward family backing you up?"
"Probably!"
Mario snorted, "Do you think the Ward family can protect you for how long? Do you think the Ward family will stand by you all the time? If your crisis threatens the Ward family's interests, will they still protect you?"
Mario's words were full of threats. His face was cold, and he stared at Sienna, his emotions showing calculation and menace.
Sienna stood still for a long time, her face remained cool.
The two of them silently faced each other, neither saying a word. After some time, Sienna's voice slowly sounded, "What do you want?"
"What I want, you don't know? My goal has always been one. If you want everyone to be safe, come back with me to Flento City. Then everyone will be fine." Mario said indifferently, his gaze always fixed on her face without wavering.
Sienna didn't speak. Her face remained expressionless.
After a long time, Mario's voice slowly sounded, "I'll give you time to think. Consider how you want to choose."
After speaking, Mario didn't linger any longer. He turned and walked towards his car.
Watching his retreating figure, Sienna's expression finally softened a bit. She bit her lip slightly and spoke slowly, "Mario, is it that you will only give up your current decisions and actions if I disappear from this world? Will everyone truly be okay then?"
Mario suddenly turned around, his face stiff, his eyes enveloped in coldness. He furrowed his brows, staring at Sienna without saying a word. He said, "You better not have any thoughts like that. Don't think you can force me to compromise with such ideas, Sienna. You understand my temper. For certain things that cross my bottom line, I will not hesitate to destroy everything."
He said indifferently, his expression returning to coldness. Then he got into the car.
The car didn't stop for long and soon started the engine, driving away from the Ward's mansion. Sienna, however, stood there without moving until Rex walked out from inside the house.
Rex gently reached out to stop her shoulder, and she didn't bother to meet his gaze, simply leaning into his embrace.
Neither of them spoke, just quietly holding each other, lingering in that moment until Rex softly spoke, "Let's go home!"
Hearing his voice, tears welled up in Sienna's eyes. She nodded slightly, "Okay."
He held Sienna's hand as they got into the car together. It was only after leaving the Ward's mansion that Sienna, belatedly, remembered. She looked at Rex and asked, "We didn't even say anything to Mom and Dad. Will they think I'm rude?"
Rex smirked, teasing her, "Should we go back and tell them now?"
