Begging for a Second Chance (Sienna Sloan and Jarred Sterling) novel Chapter 487

"He didn't use typical corporate suppression tactics. He leveraged his law enforcement connections and official authority the entire time."

Sienna tightened her grip on the phone.

Others feared Jarred for his wealthy family background and financial power.

But both Thea and Sienna knew that Jarred's true threat never came from money.

It came from his position as Captain of the Special Ops, his unparalleled authority within the system, and his ironclad network of connections.

It wasn't just him; the entire Sterling family relied on his power.

The fact that the three Sterling grandsons each excelled in different fields was no coincidence.

It was all meticulously orchestrated by their grandfather.

That was exactly why he had agreed to divorce her—to clear his name and salvage his reputation.

Sienna saw right through him, and she saw right through the Sterlings.

Thea's voice continued, "He halted all partnership filings and froze the official certification channels for the involved agencies.

The public officials we were working with have all pulled their funding and suspended collaboration.

Right now, every single media outlet that was helping us is paralyzed, and no one dares to touch our loose ends."

If any ordinary person were hit with this level of suppression, they would have completely collapsed with no way out.

But Sienna simply leaned back in her seat, her eyelids slightly lowered, her expression flawlessly calm, even carrying a hint of detached understanding.

She had predicted all of this.

From the moment she decided to scheme her way into a divorce, she had prepared to weather every ounce of his retaliation.

"Don't panic," Sienna's voice was cool and steady.

"Initiate Plan A. Compile a list of all the agencies that have been suspended.

I've already secured alternative partners in advance.

If he freezes their local certifications, we'll outsource everything out of state.
