The Billionaire's True Heiress From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 1031

The near-paralysis she had suffered remained a deep, lingering trauma for Sienna Darwin.

If Lillian Cole and Leon Byron didn't end up behind bars, she would never be able to move on.

"Congratulations, Sienna, but do you think Leon's girlfriend will actually testify?" Claire asked.

If she stepped up to take some of the heat, Leon's sentence might be significantly reduced.

Sienna only found it amusing when Claire brought up the D-list celebrity.

"His girlfriend is way too busy social climbing."

Whenever Leon's girlfriend was mentioned, Sienna felt nothing but pure disgust.

However, the girl wasn't exactly living the dream right now, having just been dumped by her sugar daddy.

It gave Sienna a profound sense of vindication.

"How did she get dumped?" Claire suddenly remembered that Leon's girlfriend had been tangled up in a messy affair with Larkin, Regina's husband.

It was only because Regina had such a tolerant temper; anyone else would have destroyed that little starlet by now.

But Regina was pragmatic and easygoing, which was probably a good thing.

The couple had an open marriage, doing their own things while staying united on one front—their children, pouring all their efforts into securing the family's future.

It was the best dynamic they could find, and it wasn't anyone else's place to judge.

Claire had heard Victoria mention that they had tried to advise Regina to keep her husband on a tighter leash in the past.

But Regina's philosophy was that obsessing over a man's fidelity would only turn them into a bitter, resentful couple.

It was far better to control his finances.

As long as she held the purse strings, why should she care whose bed he crawled into?

Did anyone genuinely find that overweight, greasy-faced man attractive anyway?

He was no spring chicken anymore, and it wasn't just his physique failing him—his stamina in the bedroom was practically nonexistent.

What was there to be jealous of?

Regina's carefree attitude was something most women could never replicate.

Especially her iron grip on the family's wealth.

That kind of lifestyle certainly wasn't for everyone.

"Because her sugar daddy found a shiny new toy," Sienna said, finding the answer glaringly obvious.

She didn't bother hiding her schadenfreude.
