Begging for a Second Chance (Sienna Sloan and Jarred Sterling) novel Chapter 218

The man casually pulled a dazzling, Limited Edition Diamond Bracelet out of a jewelry box.

The cutting technique was world-class, and the design was so unique it was unforgettable.

That single glance made Sienna's heart skip a beat.

She had seen that bracelet before.

At her own wedding reception, Helena had worn that exact piece.

All the relatives present had been completely mesmerized, asking where it came from.

Helena had flaunted it proudly, declaring it to be the only one of its kind in the entire world. Money couldn't buy it, and no price could tempt her to part with it. It was her most treasured possession.

Sienna's suspicions deepened.

Helena was deeply vain and fiercely protective of her reputation. As the matriarch of the Sterling family, she held immense wealth and power, surrounded by luxury.

There was absolutely no way she would stoop so low as to secretly keep a boy toy on the side.

But if there was no connection, how did this exclusive, treasured bracelet end up in this man's hands?

Where did he get it?

What exactly was the relationship between him and Helena?

As her mind raced, Luna's voice broke through her thoughts. "Sienna, what are you looking at? The car's here!"

Sienna snapped back to reality. She cast one last look at the man, brushed off her suspicions, and climbed into the car.

The next day.

Sterling Manor.

The three women sat around the breakfast table in a warm, harmonious atmosphere.

Suddenly, Millie rushed in, out of breath. "Mrs. Sterling, there's something you need to know. Yesterday, Arthur gave Sienna five percent of the company's shares."

But I did overhear something privately. You've exhausted yourself managing this family for half your life, yet you only hold one percent. Grandma has overseen the manor for decades and only holds two percent.

For Arthur to hand Sienna five percent out of nowhere... it makes people wonder. It's truly difficult to understand his reasoning.

Could it be that he has something even more important... meant for Sienna?"

Her words were like pouring gasoline on a fire.

Helena's fury erupted completely. "What other reasoning could there be? He's completely biased! He's just handing over generations of our family's hard-earned legacy to an outsider!"

She looked at the old woman, her eyes full of accusation. "Mom, look at what Arthur has done!

Sienna has been in this family for years, and all she's done is cause us grief. She's brought us nothing!

Now they're divorced, and she gets to walk away with five percent? Where is the justice in that?

You have to do something! We must take that five percent back from her, no matter what it takes!"
