Chapter 204 Trap for Sienna
Reid finally let go of his mother after Rosalie told him to.
Finished
Sienna shot Reid a sharp look and ridiculed, “You obeyed every word she said. Who is your real mother? Did you fall for her?”
“Sienna Hawthorne!”
Reid cut her off harshly.
Sienna did not expect him to call her by her full name. She was mad, but what mattered now was getting out of here.
She turned to leave, only to find the doorway blocked by two tall figures.
Leon and Cameron stood there, sealing the exit. Behind them came a crisp click, something striking and scraping. Rosalie’s calm, eerie voice followed. “You dropped something. Aren’t you going to take it with you?”
Rosalie struck a spark with a flint and lit a piece of animal hide. She tossed it into the corner where a pile of wooden parts was stacked.
Sienna’s heart jumped. In the flickering firelight, Rosalie stood with her arms crossed, watching her with a fake smile.
Sienna’s heart slammed hard in her chest. For the first time, a terrifying thought crossed her mind. She wasn’t getting out of this place today.
She panicked and rushed toward the door. Declan and Leon did not stop her.
Her steps were fast and unsteady. She only wanted to escape.
She had misjudged everything. Rosalie wasn’t a weakling, and she couldn’t be pushed around.
Whoosh!
A cold flash sliced through the air. A bone knife skimmed past Sienna’s cheek and slammed deep into the wooden door.
Sienna froze, her whole body shaking. The next second, Rosalie grabbed her wrist, gripping it tightly.
Rosalie smiled. Her voice was light, but her eyes were terrifying. “You want to leave?” she said. “Try again in your next life.”
Sienna was terrified by the look in Rosalie’s eyes. Her hand shoved forward without thinking. Rosalie went with the force and fell to the ground.
“Matriarch!”
“Rosalie!”
Several voices cried out at once.

Chapter 204 Trap for Sienna
Sienna stared at her hands in shock. Her mind went completely blank.
Finished
“Sienna! What do you think you’re doing?!” Talia’s furious shout came from behind, mixed with the sound of hurried footsteps.
“I didn’t do that!”
Sienna muttered weakly.
No one had expected the matriarch to put herself in danger.
The plan had been simple: lure Sienna in and hand her to Talia.
When the others saw Rosalie get pushed to the ground, clutching her stomach in pain, their hearts jumped into their throats and refused to calm down.
Reid, however, stared at Sienna with pure hatred.
Once upon a time, he had been humiliated, beaten, and nearly beaten to death. Even then, he had never blamed Sienna-not even once. Because she was his mother.
But now, he could not tolerate Rosalie being hurt by her in the slightest.
Reid met Sienna’s hopeful gaze and nodded without hesitation when Talia asked him if Sienna had set the fire.
Sienna’s straight back collapsed in an instant. Talia’s people seized her arms and held her tightly.
She screamed as if she could not accept what was happening. “Reid! I’m your mother! I’m the one who gave birth to you and raised you!
“Reid, you ungrateful traitor! You harmed your own mother! Karma will punish you for this!”
Reid stood in front of Rosalie, staring at her painful expression. A tear, as large as a bead, fell onto the back of her hand.
Talia checked Rosalie’s condition and promised that she would give her a proper explanation. Only then did
she leave.
Inside the room, Reid stayed by Rosalie’s bedside, watching her with worry. Tears streamed down his face.
It was his fault. If he had watched Sienna more carefully, if he had not let her get close to Rosalie, she would
not have been hurt.
