Ran Away Pregnant Came Back Alpha Heiress (Amelia and Damien) novel Chapter 356

Chapter 356

Jake’s POV

I sat very frozen in my chair. I was still sitting, still with my phone to my ear. I was breathing normally, and my heartbeat was regular. But I couldn’t otherwise move.

Of course. It was so obvious now, as it always should have been in the past.

Sienna hadn’t worked alone back then, relying on Claire, her brother, and Damien’s sister. Why should I have thought that she would be working alone this time?

“We know she hired someone to attack her in the woods,” I said.

“I’m not talking about that person,” the prosecutor said, “I mean someone else. There are phone records tying an accomplice to this crime as someone who helped Sienna plan this. That person, presumably, arranged for the attempted hitman.”

“Do you know who it is? Is there any way to track?”

“Both Sienna and this accomplice used methods to conceal their true identities and numbers,” the prosecutor said. “But we’ve been able to track this mysterious accomplice through their device to their general pack location.”

“So it could be anyone,” I said,

“The pack location is Damien’s.”

I froze again, feeling like I was transported to a time six years ago after Amelia’s first attack, when Damien presented evidence that Claire, Ethan, and his sister had been involved.

Ethan and Victoria had been exiled from the pack. Supposedly, they weren’t on Damien’s pack lands anymore.

But Claire was.

Faced with this new evidence, the only thing I could think to do was go to visit Sienna. The prosecutor tried to advise me against it, saying that there was nothing she would actually tell me, that she had been tight-lipped all through the trial and wasn’t likely to start talking now.

I knew I was deluding myself in thinking that Sienna might actually do the right thing for once. But… maybe it was because of the fondness we had shared as children, or how raw I felt after Amelia had forgotten me, but I hoped things would be different this time.

Even if Sienna was condemned, she was still my sister. I wanted to believe that there was some good left in her.

However small.

Especially now that I’d lost my other sister.

Sienna was in her same cell, sitting on a bench against the far wall, when I walked in. She barely looked at me before she glanced away, seemingly determined to ignore me.

“Sienna, we need to talk,” I said. “I need answers.”

She rolled her eyes, which irked me down to my bones. She was on trial for attempted murder, and even here,

now, sitting in her cell, certainly about to be condemned, she could not deign to take any of this seriously.

“Tell me about your accomplice, Sienna,” I said. “Was it Claire?”

She snorted out a laugh.

“Sienna,” I snapped, scolding, but she just laughed harder.

“You don’t have any power here, Jake,” she laughed. “I’m guilty and everyone knows it. They’re going to hang me for this, but you come here wanting answers? Hoping I’ll point fingers and drag someone else into this with me? Why in the world would I do that?”

“Because it’s the right thing to do,” I said. “The person who worked with you on this should suffer consequences too.”

“They’re untouchable,” Sienna scoffed. “It would only make more trouble for me to try to point fingers, and frankly, it’s the right thing, is not a good enough reason for me to put my neck out there even more than it already is.”

“Maybe I can help arrange something,” I said. “If we could get you in a nicer cell… or have better food…”
