Begging for a Second Chance (Sienna Sloan and Jarred Sterling) novel Chapter 579

Several patients even pulled out their phones, covertly recording the scene.

It was a massive blow to both the hospital's reputation and Sienna’s personal standing.

Amidst the chaos, Sienna’s expression remained perfectly composed as she stared unblinkingly at Celeste, who sat quietly in her wheelchair.

Finally, Celeste lifted her head.

Her gaze collided with Sienna’s across the room.

In that silent exchange, Sienna read Celeste’s exact intentions.

She wanted a public conflict. She wanted Helena to make the biggest scene possible.

She wanted everyone to witness Sienna supposedly hoarding the Sterling family assets.

Having learned from previous scandals, Sienna knew better.

She absolutely refused to engage in a heated, impulsive argument in front of a crowd, refusing to hand them any ammunition.

Sienna’s expression was incredibly calm. "Mrs. Sterling, the management rights I hold were officially authorized before the patriarch fell into a coma, and they are fully legally binding.

I am not privately hoarding your assets, nor can I simply hand them over with a single word.

Transferring the trustee management rights requires a comprehensive and strict legal procedure. It cannot be finalized on the spot."

She glanced at Helena, whose face was growing increasingly impatient, and kept her tone even.

"If you are adamant about doing this, I will follow the protocol. You can go home and wait for the official notice."

Helena froze.

She clearly hadn't expected Sienna to agree so readily.

She immediately turned her head to look at Celeste.

Celeste gave a microscopic nod—a movement so subtle that only Helena could catch it.

Helena’s aggressive posture softened slightly, though she remained deeply guarded, dropping a vicious warning.

"You’d better mean it! Don't even think about dragging this out or playing me for a fool. If I find out you're pulling any tricks behind my back...

I will burn everything down with me just to make sure you can never show your face in the Capital again!"

A flicker of cold disgust flashed in Sienna’s eyes. Her voice was icy and crisp.
