Begging for a Second Chance (Sienna Sloan and Jarred Sterling) novel Chapter 359

The more Helena thought about it, the more furious she became. "We are not letting this slide. I've already called our lawyers. Aggravated assault carries a minimum three-year sentence.

Sienna loves playing games, doesn't she? Well, I'm going to make sure she rots playing them."

She pulled out her phone to make the call.

Everyone in the room nodded in grim agreement, universally condemning Sienna as unforgivable.

Everyone except Jarred, who was exuding a terrifying, bone-chilling aura.

In one massive stride, he crossed the room and snatched the phone clean out of Helena's hand, his movements ruthless and precise.

A man in a sharp gray suit stood in the doorway, wielding a wireless microphone.

Behind him stood a cameraman hoisting a heavy lens, followed by a swarm of media reporters gripping their phones like weapons.

And the person leading the charge...
