I Stopped Loving Him When He Let Me Bleed Out novel Chapter 462

Sienna stared at Leonard, momentarily stunned.

Then, she let out a soft laugh.

"That is absolutely false."

Her tone was calm, but every syllable radiated absolute certainty.

"It's just vicious corporate sabotage. Rumors stop when they reach the wise."

Leonard nodded in understanding.

"My apologies. I spoke out of turn."

"It's fine," Sienna said, looking him in the eye. "The fact that you said it to my face proves you're an honest guy."

Leonard didn't push the issue. He gave a polite nod and walked away.

Sienna turned and walked toward Finn.

Finn leaned against the car door, watching her approach. His gaze flicked over her shoulder, glaring daggers at the retreating man.

"Long chat?" he asked, a hint of jealousy in his tone. "You're quite popular. Making new friends on your very first day."

Sienna caught the underlying sourness and willingly linked her arm through his.

"Stop being jealous," she teased. "The only reason I stayed to talk to him was because of you."

Finn straightened up immediately.

"Because of me?"

Once inside the car, Sienna buckled her seatbelt and repeated exactly what Leonard had just told her.

Finn's expression darkened as he listened, his jaw locking tight.

"So the smear campaign is worse than I thought. It's already infected the government sectors," he muttered. He paused, his eyes narrowing. "I've already ordered a press conference for three days from now. We are ending this permanently. If we don't, it will completely suffocate the Westside Project."

Sienna looked at him.

"Is Maeve going to be there?"

That was the million-dollar question.

Finn hesitated.

"I had Terrence brief her on the situation and send a formal invitation this morning. But she hasn't responded. Knowing her... if she wants to come, she'll show up uninvited. If she doesn't, no amount of begging will change her mind."
