Begging for a Second Chance (Sienna Sloan and Jarred Sterling) novel Chapter 371

With those words, a suffocating wave of pressure gripped the room, making it hard for everyone to breathe.

The old woman and Helena stumbled backward, dispersing in a messy retreat.

Gideon and Lucas looked disgruntled but didn't dare make a reckless move.

Yet his protection earned not a shred of emotion from Sienna.

Sienna stood behind him, staring at his broad back with absolute coldness.

She remembered it clearly.

Just moments ago, when everyone was ganging up on her, he had looked at her with suspicion.

This delayed gallantry was cheap and utterly meaningless to her.

Sienna's gaze was as indifferent as still water, sweeping past Jarred's back without lingering for even a second.

Without a single word, she turned on her heel and headed straight for the door.

Thea Stanton followed closely behind, ushering the remaining reporters to turn off their streams and calmly leave the scene.

Jarred stood rooted to the spot, his gaze fixed on her proud, retreating figure.

His features were covered in an icy layer of indifference, betraying no sign of lost composure.

But his thin lips were pressed into a tight line, the turbulent frustration in his chest buried deep in his eyes.

In the afternoon, Luna Lennox was officially released.

Sienna and Thea went to pick her up.

Seeing Luna walk out of the station, Sienna quickly stepped forward.

Her eyes swept over Luna's slightly haggard face before she reached out and gently hooked arms with her.

"You're finally out. Did anyone give you a hard time?"
