Begging for a Second Chance (Sienna Sloan and Jarred Sterling) novel Chapter 295

I will also arrange for someone to guarantee your personal safety. But, I need you to do me a favor."

Mrs. Bridges looked up at her through tear-blurred eyes. "You want me to testify against Ms. Carlyle?"

"Yes," Sienna nodded firmly.

"I can do that, but..." Mrs. Bridges swallowed hard, her expression fraught with hesitation. "She is truly terrifying. I'm afraid she..."

Sienna cut her off. "As long as the truth comes to light, the Sterling family will absolutely not let Celeste get away with this. Once that happens, her threat against you disappears completely."

Convinced by Sienna's logic, Mrs. Bridges finally agreed. "Okay."

After ensuring Mrs. Bridges and her husband were safe and relocated, it was nearly eleven o'clock by the time Sienna got home.

She immediately called Luna and relayed everything Mrs. Bridges had confessed.

Luna let out a thrilled scream on the other end. "With Mrs. Bridges testifying, all we need to do is locate the primary crime scene, and sending Celeste straight to prison is a guaranteed slam dunk!"

"Exactly," Sienna nodded. "So we can't wait any longer. I'm going to Sterling Manor tonight to collect soil samples and document the marks on the tree roots for hard evidence."

"Do you know what time it is?" Luna asked, her voice laced with deep unease. "I'm coming with you. It's too dangerous for you to go alone."

"No need," Sienna rejected the idea immediately. "There's been a constant stream of visitors checking on his grandfather lately, so the security guards won't stop me.

But if I bring you along, it'll draw too much attention. We might alert the Manor's staff or get noticed by Celeste's people."

"But I just have a really bad feeling about this. My eye has been twitching all night..." Luna worried endlessly.

"Stop overthinking it," Sienna said, her tone perfectly steady. "I have your evidence collection kit. I'll sneak in quietly, grab the samples, take the photos to secure the evidence, and leave immediately. I won't linger."

Unable to talk Sienna out of it, Luna reluctantly gave in, repeatedly urging her to be extremely careful.

After hanging up, Sienna gathered her supplies and drove to Sterling Manor alone.

Seeing her calm demeanor, the security guards assumed she was just there for another late-night visit regarding the old man and let her right in.
