He Buried Me But I Painted My Own Resurrection novel Chapter 133

So this was all a calculated setup by Sienna!

The moment Lyla realized she had walked right into a trap, a spike of panic hit her chest, but she quickly forced herself to calm down.

She frantically shook her head, slipping back into her pitiful, innocent persona as tears began to spill down her cheeks.

"Grant, I didn't. I didn't do anything..."

"She threw herself down on her own. I couldn't even stop her."

Seeing her look so pathetic, Grant's heart softened slightly, but he still issued a cold warning.

"I let it slide when you plagiarized and framed Sienna last time, but don't let it happen again! Or else..."

Lyla stumbled back half a step, completely shell-shocked by his sudden icy demeanor.

Grant had never spoken to her in that tone before, let alone threatened her.

Lyla bit her lower lip hard. A toxic cocktail of humiliation and pure venomous hatred for Sienna gnawed at her insides like a starved beast.

She never expected to be cornered so effortlessly by that bitch without being able to say a word in her own defense.

But under Grant's warning glare, she forced herself to swallow her raging fury.

Through tear-filled eyes, she managed a pitifully compliant, "I understand."

"Don't worry, Grant. I'll remember."

Hearing Lyla's meek and submissive reply, the tight clench of Grant's jaw slowly relaxed.

The layer of frost on his handsome features finally thawed, melting away his earlier harshness.

His gaze lingered affectionately on the fragile woman in his arms, still thoroughly reveling in Sienna's desperate, tearful confession.

Then, he shifted his attention back to Lyla, who was silently crying opposite them.

Staring at these two women—both deeply in love with him, both fighting for his affection—an unprecedented surge of gratification completely inflated his bloated ego.

He let out a self-important sigh and offered what he thought was incredibly generous, gentle advice.

"One of you is my rightful wife, and the other is my cherished lover. It's more important than anything that the two of you get along."

Sienna's stomach churned violently.
