Begging for a Second Chance (Sienna Sloan and Jarred Sterling) novel Chapter 504

Helena immediately turned and grabbed Jarred's sleeve.

"Jarred, do you realize the disaster Sienna is causing? She's impersonating a master!

"Celeste is right. If she's exposed, our whole family will be dragged down. Have someone pull her out of there..."

Jarred violently shook off her hand. "This is a critical moment in saving a life. Do not interrupt her."

He stared at the slender figure on the large screen. The silver needles twirled effortlessly between her fingers, piercing the patient's acupoints with lethal precision.

On the monitor, the patient's brainwaves began to show faint, rhythmic fluctuations.

Helena stole a glance at Jarred's conflicted expression, realizing her son was going to be soft-hearted and block her.

Deciding she couldn't rely on him, she quietly slipped away to a corner, quickly dialing her security detail and issuing a low, frantic command.

"Storm the operating room right now and drag Sienna Sloan out! Hurry! Do not let her continue this farce!"

The bodyguards stationed outside received the order and sprinted toward the OR.

Bang! Bang! Bang—

A violent pounding shattered the quiet sterility of the operating room.

The assisting medical staff jumped in terror, freezing in their tracks.

Yet Sienna, deeply focused on her needlework, didn't so much as blink. Her fingertips remained as steady as solid rock, without a millimeter of tremor.

She didn't even look up as she reassured the room, "Don't panic. Keep working."

On the screen, her wrist hovered gracefully over the patient's arm, the cloud patterns on the needles practically glowing under the surgical lights.

The audience in front of the screen noticed the commotion. Whispers erupted, and the atmosphere instantly grew tense and bizarre.

Out in the hallway, Helena led a group of bodyguards, marching forward aggressively.

They were seconds away from breaking down the door.

Celeste sat quietly in her wheelchair, her head bowed to hide the vicious gleam in her eyes, playing the part of a frail woman too weak to intervene.

In reality, she was eagerly waiting for Sienna's procedure to fail and blow up in her face.
