He said, "I've already said it, I will definitely bring her back to Flento City. So, for now, focus on building a relationship with her. She's grateful to you, and I believe that with sincere efforts, you will soon go back to how things were before."
After Mario finished speaking, he continued to gaze at Mrs. King, as if telling her that it was time to make a phone call.
Mrs. King was actually reluctant, but she had no choice. Mario was her only son, and now that he had achieved success, all that was left was for him to start a family.
However, Mario's personal matters had always troubled her. Although he had a previous fiancée, it didn't work out in the end. This made Mrs. King increasingly worried. If Mario insisted on Sienna, what if something unexpected happened in the future? Sienna wouldn't be able to help him in any way!
Mrs. King's worries deepened as these thoughts crossed her mind.
But under Mario's prolonged gaze, she ultimately had to nod.
In front of Mario, Mrs. King dialed Sienna's number. The call connected quickly, and it was unexpected for Sienna, as she hadn't received a call from Mrs. King for several days.
Sienna softly said, "Mom."
She still addressed Mrs. King as "Mom."
Mrs. King gently replied, "Hmm, it's me. Are you busy?"
Sienna said, "Hmm, not busy."
Sienna had just left the company and was preparing to go home.
Mrs. King said, "Shall we have dinner together tonight?"
"Tonight?" Sienna asked uncertainly.
"Yes, tonight," Mrs. King confirmed.
Sienna hesitated for a moment and then asked, "Just the two of us?"
Mrs. King's eyes instinctively glanced at Mario beside her. Since the call was on speakerphone, Mario could naturally hear what Sienna was saying.
Mario's expression instantly became solemn because he knew exactly what Sienna meant with that question. However, he didn't make any move, and Mrs. King simply replied, "Hmm, just the two of us. It's been several days since we had a meal together as a mother and daughter."
"Okay, what do you want to eat? I'll come pick you up later!" Sienna's joy instantly surfaced upon hearing that it would only be the two of them. Her voice carried an unmistakable delight as she said, "I'll come over now. Later, we can go shopping. I found a nice fruit shop; I'll accompany you to take a look."
Mrs. King also sensed the excitement in Sienna's words. Sienna was considerate, and Mrs. King loved her daughter dearly. However, compared to Mario, there was no comparison.
Mrs. King also happily agreed and then ended the call. She put down her phone and instinctively looked at Mario beside her. She said, "You heard it too. Perhaps she really doesn't have any thoughts about you in any aspect. She..."
"Even if she doesn't, I still want to bring her back. She doesn't belong here. She is a part of the King family, and she will be for the rest of her life." Mario's tone was firm, without any room for negotiation.
After he finished speaking, he didn't wait for Mrs. King to respond and continued, "Get ready. Since she came to pick you up in person, there must still be some feelings left for you."
Mario's tone was particularly cold, and then he had someone escort Mrs. King back to her room.
Mrs. King sighed silently, feeling quite helpless.
Back in her room, Mrs. King asked her secretary, "Has he always been alone? Is there no one of the opposite sex around him?"
The secretary subconsciously showed a troubled expression. It was about Mario's affairs, so he didn't dare to say too much.
Mrs. King also noticed the secretary's reluctance to respond, and her expression became less pleasant. She indifferently said, "Alright, you may leave."
