"Sienna, what's wrong? You look pale."
Sienna snapped back to reality, shoving her phone into her pocket and shaking her head.
"I'm fine. Is everything sorted on your end?"
Lily was beaming.
"All sorted. Everything that belongs to me is back in my hands. The only condition is that I can't leak the video to the public. But they know they can never target me again, or I reserve the right to 'accidentally' let it slip."
She threw a disgusted glance toward the conference room.
"As for Angeline, she's definitely getting fired."
Sienna briefly looked at Angeline's battered form.
"There's nothing wrong with clawing your way to the top, but you shouldn't do it by stepping on other people using dirty tricks."
Lily looped her arm through Sienna's.
"Thank God I have you, or I would've been the sacrificial lamb today. Let's call Isaac and go out to celebrate. What do you say?"
Sienna didn't want to ruin her friend's mood.
"Sure. Let's do it."
The moment they walked out of the campus gates, Sienna's phone rang.
It was Felicia.
"Sienna, did that little gift I gave you come in handy?"
Sienna's posture relaxed slightly.
"Felicia, thank you so much. It was a massive help." She paused. "Angeline just got beaten to a pulp by Victor's wife. She's going to need some serious cosmetic work. She definitely won't be meeting up with Ford anytime soon."
Felicia's bright laughter rang through the receiver.
"You're incredible, Sienna." Once her laughter subsided, she let out a soft sigh. "Honestly, I would've loved to see that with my own eyes."
"We're having a celebration dinner at The Gilded Clove tonight. Do you want to join us?"
"I'll pass this time. You girls have fun." Over the phone, slightly muffled by distance, a man's voice drifted through.
"Felicia."
