A Surprising Twist of Fates (Sierra and Theo) novel Chapter 251

Sierra took a deep breath. She felt frustrated when she saw her stuff scattered on the floor.

"I'm fine," came her reply.

The bodyguard scanned her from head to toe. He didn't relax until he was sure that she wasn't injured.

Benson looked at the man, who appeared out of nowhere, and raised his voice. "Who are you?"

The bodyguard ignored him as he crouched and picked up everything in one hand. Then, he said to Sierra, "Let me give you a ride home, Ms. Shaw."

Sierra didn't intend to keep this horseplay up with Benson and invite the passersby to make fun of them. "Alright. Thanks for your help."

The bodyguard walked next to Sierra, deliberately putting himself between her and Benson.

Meanwhile, Benson was so frustrated that his face reddened when he noticed them ignoring him. He paid no mind to the passersby's odd glances and stood in their way.

"You're Theo's man. I want you to tell him that Sierra is my girlfriend. I don't need him to butt his head in."

The strangers around him started pointing at Sierra when they heard what he said. They were speculating if she was seducing men out here when she was actually Benson's girlfriend. Some of them even accused her of being promiscuous.

Sierra could just imagine how the people in the neighborhood would talk about her for the foreseeable future whenever she went outside.

"That's enough. Will you stop it with your nonsense? We broke up a long time ago. So, stop misleading people.

"Leave now, Benson. I want you to stop stirring up problems in my life."

They grew up together, and he even saved her life once. With those in mind, she didn't want to sound too harsh.

However, Benson didn't seem to understand what Sierra said. He insisted on rambling on like a fool. That was why she chose to be more straightforward this time, intending to utterly sever her ties with him.

Be that as it may, she had underestimated his pigheadedness.

"I said what I said for your own good, Cee. They get close to you with ill intentions. Theo didn't instruct him to protect you. Instead, he was sent here to monitor you." Benson painted Theo in the worst light possible and did everything he could to slander Theo in front of Sierra.

The bodyguard pushed Benson away and raised his fist. "Mind your tongue. I will repeat everything you said to Mr. Gray."

…

Later, she arrived at a coffee shop outside the neighborhood. She opened the door and swept her glance across the place as a light and melodious music played around her.

Sophie was sitting in the corner, and she immediately spotted Sierra. "Over here."

Sierra took steps toward her and asked, "What do you want?"

Sophie glanced at the bodyguard behind Sierra and fell silent. Sierra was aware of Sophie's concerns, so she said, "Take a seat over there and order yourself a beverage. It's on me."

The bodyguard nodded in response. He took a seat at the nearest empty seat and trained his gaze on them.

Sophie was seething with hatred.

Sierra was lucky enough to have established a connection to a prestigious family like the Grays. Benson might've stopped looking after her, but she still had another Gray watching her back.

The same couldn't be said for Sophie, though. The only person she could latch onto was Benson.
