Begging for a Second Chance (Sienna Sloan and Jarred Sterling) novel Chapter 573

I'll strangle you to death today, you vicious snake!"

She raised her hands high, aiming her long, manicured nails straight for Sienna's face.

The onlookers gasped, far too slow to intervene.

In that split second, Sienna reacted with lightning reflexes.

She shot her hand up, seizing Helena's wrist, and used her momentum to shove her hard.

Helena lost her balance instantly, stumbling backward wildly.

The small of her back slammed violently into the hard edge of a heavy table. Blinding pain shot through her body, causing her to crumple and curl in on herself.

Sprawled on the floor, Helena's eyes immediately brimmed with furious tears.

The two police officers quickly moved forward to help her up.

But Helena refused to let it go. Thrashing wildly, she turned and screeched at the squad of bodyguards standing nearby.

"She dared to lay her hands on me! Beat her to death! I'm going to teach this insolent bitch a lesson today!"

The Sterling matriarch's face contorted with anger. She slammed her cane hard against the marble floor, barking out a harsh command.

"I always knew this woman was trouble! She won't rest until she tears the Sterlings apart! Throw her out!"

The bodyguards immediately surged forward, moving to surround Sienna.

Just then, a frigid, low male voice sliced through the chaos. "Don't you dare move!"

Those few words were as sharp as ice, carrying an indisputable, crushing authority.

It was an absolute command, instantly freezing every movement in the room.

The bodyguards locked up mid-step, none daring to advance an inch. The temperature in the room seemingly plummeted to freezing.

Jarred's tall, commanding figure strode forward. He planted himself firmly in front of Sienna, shielding her safely behind his broad back.

His rugged features were encased in a terrifying layer of frost.

His dark, predatory gaze landed heavily on his mother's hysterical form. When he spoke, his voice was dangerously low.
