CHAPTER 4

ATHENA'S POINT OF VIEW

I didn't wait for Demetrius to say anything and fortunately, he didn't follow me out either. 

“ Queen's hospital!" I said, hailing down a taxi that would take me straight to the hospital Siena was in. 

As the taxi drove to the hospital, I stared outside the window with a far away look. Telling Sebastian about the divorce was the best thing that had happened to me. I felt as though a heavy weight had been lifted off me, I felt free for the first time in six years of marriage with Sebastian. 

I was so lost in thoughts that I didn't know when the taxi driver stopped in front of the hospital. 

“ Ma'am, we're here” the taxi driver announced as the car came to a halt. 

I Jolted in shock at the sound of his voice but immediately composed myself. 

" Thanks” I muttered as I got down. I paid him the transport fare. 

Before driving off, he looked up at me with a pitiful look. 

" It's well” he said with a light smile as he drove off, which left me speechless for a while but, I was not here to stand around, I had something to do. 

I walked through the hospital doors, the click-clack of my stiletto heels echoing off the sterile walls. I held my head high, my shoulders back, my chest puffed out - I felt confident and invincible. I knew exactly where I was going, even before I saw the number on the door: Room 28. Of course, Sienna would be in the VIP wing, I thought with a roll of my eyes.

She always had to be the center of attention, even when she was sick. 

The expression on my face darkened as I stared at the door. “ Bitch!" I snarled, my fists curling up into a ball. 

Slowly, I reached out and pushed open the door before walking inside. 

Inside her ward, there was a doctor and some nurses which surrounded her. It seemed like they were examining her. 

Just then, she tilted her head and sighted me. Almost immediately, her expression brightened up and a huge smile formed on her face. 

“ Athena!” She called out, her excitement palpable. “ I'm so happy you are here!" She said again pouting innocently like a child. “ But, I hope you are not angry with me for disturbing you all because of my health?" 

My expression remained unchanging, dark and gloomy as I strode over to her bedside. 

“ At.. Athena?" Sienna stuttered, looking shaken. “ Is..is everything..al.. alright?" She asked but didn't get any response from me. 

“ Sienna" I finally spoke up, my voice dripping with anger. “ You, you sent that text earlier, true or false?" 

“ I.. I did..did.." she tried saying but before the last words could leave her mouth, my palm met with her cheeks, giving her a satisfactory slap across the cheeks. 

I leaned in close, my voice low and devilish. "It's a simple question," I said. "True or false - that's all I need." I was fully aware of the shocked looks and muffled gasps of the doctor and nurses behind me, but in that moment, all I cared about was getting Sienna to tell the truth.

I needed to know if she was the one who had sent that message. 

“ I..I.." she tried saying again. 

“ Wrong answer" I said with a devilish smirk as I stretched my hands to land another slap on her cheeks. 

But suddenly, the door flew open and a loud, baritone voice disrupted me. 

“ Stop it!" The voice roared. Without being told, I already knew who it was. 

“ Hmm..you came just in time to save your little damsel in distress" I said with a low growl as I turned to meet Sebastian's stern gaze, his gaze was do icy and dark that it could literally make even the bravest man cry but I didn't finch one bit as I stared into his icy eyes. 

Sebastian turned me into a cold hearted monster and he was going to get it hurt. 

“ Oh..poor Sebastian" I pursed my lips, sarcasm coloring my tone. “ Were you scared that I would hurt your little siennay, huh?" I paused, waiting for him to say something but he kept quiet so I continued. “ Tsk.. tsk." I clicked my tongue, shaking my head with disappointment. “ you think so lowly of me then” 

Sienna looked shaken with a bullied expression on her face but, I knew she was just putting up an act in front of Sebastian. She had a childish pout on her lips. 

“ Sebastian" she called with a whimper. “ She..she slapped me!" She cried, pointing her finger at me. “ I didn't do anything to her, I swear!" 

" Oh really?” I asked with a raised brow as I slowly turned to meet her gaze. 

She curled herself up fearfully, her eyes shut tight. 

“ She's gonna hurt me please! Someone should save me!!” She yelled out in a pitiful voice, she sounded so frightened and emotionally perturbed. 

I shook my head as I watched her act, she was such a pretentious bitch! But I must say, she was good at what she did. 

“ Ma'am please you need to leave immediately" a nurse said as she tried dragging me out of the ward. 

“ No one dares to touch me!" I yelled, yanking my hand. " Don't try it!” 

" But..but Ma'am!” The nurse tried arguing but Sebastian cut her short. 

" Let her be,” Sebastian ordered with a cold expression. 

" Good” I muttered, a sinister grin spreading across my lips as I turned to face Sienna. 

" Game up, bitch!” I snarled as I reached out for a printed picture in my purse and flung it on Sebastian. 

“ What's this?" He asked as he slowly picked up the picture. 

I watched as his gaze darkened the moment he saw the content. He looked shocked and surprised as he stared at the picture in his hands. 

“ I..I didn't do anything!” Sienna yelled, her voice echoing in the room. One could easily tell the des

peration in her voice. 

“ Oh Sienna," I said in a mocking tone. “ Game's up, Darling"
