Begging for a Second Chance (Sienna Sloan and Jarred Sterling) novel Chapter 392

Jarred was a public official, making him the most qualified person to verify the evidence in this chaotic storm.

More than that, he wanted to shield Sienna and block out the vicious gossip aimed at her.

But just as he raised his hand, a light, serene female voice chimed in first.

"May I see that letter?" Sienna asked calmly.

Daisy froze, instinctively looking toward the imposing Jarred.

Under his heavy stare, her internal panic outweighed her resentment, and she reluctantly handed over the piece of paper.

Sienna's fingertips lightly brushed the paper, her movements utterly poised.

Looking down to quickly scan the text, it took her a mere ten seconds to spot every single flaw in the document.

She had seen Mrs. Bridges' handwriting before, and this letter genuinely looked like it had been penned by her.

If Celeste hadn't hired someone to forge it, then Mrs. Bridges must have written it herself under Celeste's instructions.

No matter the truth, she was determined to get to the bottom of it.

Sienna's heart sank, yet her facial expression remained absolutely neutral.

As a psychiatrist, she had undergone the most rigorous training.

She could maintain her composure under any circumstances.

Yet when her eyes skimmed over a few specific details, her pupils slightly contracted.

She looked up. "The date on this letter is wrong."

Daisy's face instantly went pale, a flash of unexpected confusion darting through her eyes.

Jarred's gaze unconsciously darkened.

He had already had the letter analyzed; it was a ninety-six-point-something percent match to Mrs. Bridges' handwriting.

Sienna's eyes were placid as she slowly revealed the truth. "Mrs. Bridges spent her life farming. She didn't know many words.

For half her life, she kept ledgers, wrote in diaries, and jotted down trivial matters. For decades, without fail, she strictly used the lunar calendar.

I happened to see her accounting books and notes before. There was never a single exception.
