‘Justin may decide to keep me because he wants to investigate my identity and background.’ A sigh of relief escaped Sienna, who pretended to be unconscious on the bed. She was carrying out her mission in Juxor City. She had been invited to assist by the Secret Intelligence Agency’s (SIA) highest command. She didn’t have to be concerned that Justin might find out anything because she was here undercover and had made up her identity beforehand. Sienna fell asleep at ease. A short while later, Justin’s subordinates returned and gave him a file, saying, “Chairman Laverick, everything is here.”Justin took the information and quickly scanned through it. According to the information, the unconscious girl’s name was Londyn Shadow. This year, she had just turned eighteen. She had been sold at a young age after being abducted. She later experienced bullying while growing up in an orphanage. The girl was planning to jump off the bridge that night when he came across her.The look in Ju
There were expensive flowers that blossomed throughout the spacious courtyard. The scene was pleasing to the eye. There was a swing in the center of the garden. Sienna sat on the swing and rocked slowly to overcome her boredom.She appeared relaxed and carefree in the eyes of others. However, only Sienna knew that she was counting the time. She had been at Juxor City for five days. Other than her initial accomplishment in entering Laverick Manor, there had been no developments or discoveries over the previous five days.‘I’ll swim out to meet my ship if it doesn’t come in. I have to take the initiative to strike if Justin doesn’t come to me.’Sienna’s gaze swept across the gate, as if unintentionally.That was right—she did this on purpose. She had purposefully come here to wait for Justin to get home. Sadly, she had pretty bad luck.Justin didn’t show up for the two hours Sienna sat on the swing. On the contrary, the maid assigned to look after her arrived next to her in a ha
Sienna shook her head honestly.She was going to cry as she lowered her beautiful eyes. “I’m not sure, but… I vaguely recall having a brother who loves me a lot. He buys me whatever I want, and he treats me very well. I’m not sure whether he is real or it’s just my imagination. If he’s real, he must be worried sick about me now.”She should shed a few tears in a situation like this to gain sympathy, but Sienna was unable to cry. She therefore quietly pinched her thigh.‘Ouch! It hurts. I’ve made far too many sacrifices for this mission.’Sienna raised her head. Her eyes were covered in a layer of tears and had gone red. She appeared to be a helpless cub that had been left behind by others. She made it impossible for people to not pity her.Justin’s heart went soft in the face of her eyes.‘This girl is practically in the same situation as my sister.’Justin spoke slowly. “It’s okay for you to not remember. I’ll tell you your identity. Your name is Londyn Shadow. You were lost an
The clock was ticking, and Sienna needed to act quickly. The sound of a car engine came from downstairs as Sienna was racking her brains for a solution. Sienna assumed Justin had returned earlier than expected, so she smiled brightly and hurried downstairs to greet him.After getting a close look at the man who had just entered the house, Sienna was horrified. ‘Why is it him? He’s the guy I hitchhiked with at the airport!’Immediately, Sienna turned around and prepared to return to her room.When that man caught a glimpse of her, his whimsical voice was heard. “Don’t run away from me. I specifically came here to see you.”The visitor was Arlo. He had come here out of curiosity after hearing that Justin had brought home a sister.‘This little girl actually turned around and fled when I showed up. She doesn’t seem interested in seeing me.’Arlo said with a smile, “Don’t be scared. I’m really close to your brother. His sister is my sister. This time, I’ve come here to give you a
Arlo informed Justin of everything that had occurred the other day right away. He was worried that Justin might not get the full picture. Arlo continued, “I wanted to tease her at the time. She surprised me by kicking open my car door. Before I could react, she had jumped out. The car was moving at a speed of 50 to 60 kilometers per hour. Don’t you think that if a delicate girl leaped out of the car, she would have suffered a major injury?“She was alright, though. She jumped off the car unharmed, and there wasn't even a single smudge on her clothes. Imagine how proficient her fighting skills must be! I’m certain that this girl approached you with evil intentions!”Arlo finished speaking and eagerly awaited Justin’s response. Yet, Justin didn’t show even the tiniest signs of the rage, disappointment, or uncertainty he had anticipated.Justin asked him rhetorically, “So what?”‘So what? It means he doesn't believe a word I said!’Arlo widened his eyes in disbelief and asked in
Arlo’s attitude was resolute.Justin had had enough of this. He swung his fist toward Arlo and chastised him coldly, “Stop acting so crazy!”“You’re the one who’s crazy!”Arlo was in a towering rage. He wiped the blood oozing from the corner of his mouth and pushed Justin’s hand away. Later, he walked away without raising his head.The maids who stood on the side dared not breathe loudly. Sienna still sat on a swing in the courtyard. When she looked up, she noticed Arlo had left the house. She was clueless as to what the two had discussed. Arlo had a wound on his face, while Justin was watching him from behind. Arlo dared not do anything to Sienna. He simply gave her a serious look before driving away.After the previous incident, Sienna expected Justin to guard her day and night, but she was surprised when he didn’t. He no longer avoided her in the study when he was working with some confidential materials. ‘Is this a ruse? Is he doing this on purpose to get me to fall fo
In the dead of night, almost everyone in the manor was asleep, except for the bodyguards guarding and patrolling outside the manor.For Sienna, now was the perfect time for action. It was also the easiest time to expose her identity.Sienna opened the door and entered the room gently. This wasn’t the first time she had walked into this study. She was familiar with the interior decor and room layout. The most important thing she needed to do now was locate the secret compartment.Starting with the bookcase at one end, Sienna searched through each case, one by one, trying to discover something. ‘The study room is huge. If I kept looking around in this manner, I wouldn’t be able to locate the confidential documents till dawn! I have to think of a way. Where would I keep my important documents if I were Justin?’Sienna stood in the center of the room and carefully examined the layout. She had drastically narrowed down the possible territories after excluding the impossible territorie
Sienna pursed her lips and scoffed. "If you understand that there would be more to come, then you would know that if you kill Justin Laverick, others will take his place."Indeed, it would be a waste of strength if they did not root out the problem. "I agree, but who would know what the SIA is thinking?" Blake sighed, shaking his head. "Anyway, it's none of our business, so you just have to finish your job, Sienna. Ignore everything else.""Yeah," Sienna replied and hung up.Meanwhile, the sun had already risen outside. Sienna figured Hunter and the rest would have arrived at Juxor City by now.Sienna called him, and after making her instructions perfectly clear and hanging up, she stepped out of the room.There was rustling in the corridor. It was not particularly audible, but it drew suspicion nonetheless.Sienna opened the door to find that a carpet had been laid out over the ice-cold floor, and it extended to the stairs at the corner.The servants who were laying out the c
The wind blew, and there were wrinkles in the lake.Her heart was also in turmoil.Sienna looked away. Of course, she did not really mean to leave, not to mention, the things that she brought with her had not come in handy yet.Sienna broke away from Harry’s grip, then walked to the group of rocks where she had just sat down and picked up a bag on the ground which contained more than a dozen hand-folded paper cranes.There was a small candle on top of the paper cranes, and a paper-folded disc was placed underneath. The candles could be lit and then placed in the water. Sienna took out a lighter, lit a few, then put them in the water. After that, she looked at Harry, raised her brows, and said, “Here, want to do it together?”Harry sat down beside her. He looked at the delicate paper crane in his hand, then thought for a moment and asked, “Did you fold all these?” “Yes.” Sienna looked at the faint candlelight on the water and said slowly, “When I was young at about the age of e
Eagor was immediately excited. It flew twice around Sienna before returning to its nest.By a lake, a few kilometers away from Lang Garden.Harry’s eyelashes were half drooping under the moonlight. His thick eyelashes cast a layer of shadow on his eyelids, and his handsome face looked extremely secretive. It seemed as if he was covered with a layer of fog which was light and stunning, but it was impossible to see him clearly. Sienna sat down next to him.This was a group of rocks, which was cold and uncomfortable.But that was not the point. The point was that she was here.A trace of surprise flashed across Harry’s eyes, and there was also a certain emotion on his usually calm and unperturbed face as he asked, “Why are you here?” Sienna looked at the lake in front of her, raised her eyes, and said, “I can’t let you enjoy such beautiful scenery alone.”Under the moonlight, there were layers of mountains and rivers in front of them, and the neatly planted pines and cypresses s
Sienna paused for a moment and subconsciously replied, “Aren’t we going to Scott Mansion to see Lady Scott tomorrow?” “We are going to Scott Mansion to see my grandmother tomorrow. Just accompany me tonight, okay?”The corners of Harry’s mouth curled into a shallow arc, and the clear aura around his body dispersed. He was extremely gentle. “Okay?”Sienna keenly felt that Harry’s speech at the moment was different from usual, but she could not tell what the difference was. After a brief moment of hesitation, she declined, “It’s already very late. Let’s rest early.”“Okay.”Harry got up. He was still smiling as he said, “Goodnight, then.”He then left.The dining room instantly became quiet, and Harry’s invisible charming aura gradually dissipated. The crystal lamp above Sienna’s head did not move and was emitting a warm glow.Sienna wiped her mouth, then got up and left the dining room.When she was about to go upstairs to her room to rest, she inadvertently heard someone
‘At this time, an elderly pretty boy lost the light in his eyes.’‘The person who left the comment above should compensate me! You caused me to drop my mask because I laughed!’When the production team saw that the effect was so good, they decided to let Keegan move around in the virtual world longer before letting him down.It so happened that the live broadcast time was too short, and the viewers were reluctant to leave the live broadcast room because of the high popularity and the heated discussions. As such, they simply made Keegan perform a 360-degree spin!…When Sienna returned to Lang Garden, she received the income from this live broadcast. With Harry’s crazy reward and the accumulation of countless gift rewards that she had received from hundreds of millions of viewers, Sienna made quite a considerable income.In addition, this live broadcast was a great success. It had great popularity, and the Universal Atrium would also get a huge share of the profit.Sienna was sat
Quentin was stunned for a moment. He could not bear it, and he immediately stepped forward and carried Clara, then walked out without saying a word.After he left, Christina, who had been watching this scene, sneered and said, “Pfft, she’s really good at putting on an act. Clara is really a master when it comes to manipulating men.”The live recording stopped here.This was probably the shortest episode of the live broadcast of the large-scale reality variety program, Ninja Survival, and it was probably the most thought-provoking episode.Quentin brought Clara to the hospital.Hank went home with lingering fears.The other guests who also ‘died’ also dispersed in groups of twos and threes. Jonas tried to speak to Sienna, but Sienna ignored him several times. In the end, he could only bow his head and leave in frustration. The live broadcast this time was extremely popular, and many media and reporters were gathered at the entrance of the Universal Atrium.They flocked up fra
Jonas suddenly came to his senses. He let go of Clara’s hand and ran wildly in the direction of the mountain and forest!He would only be facing death if he were to go there in the face of such raging flames. It was even more likely that he would not be able to find Sienna anywhere.But he went anyway.Hank, who was on the beach, had sobered up and was witnessing everything that had just happened. When he looked at Jonas’s back, he mocked, “At least, he still has a conscience.”But at this moment, a person fell down from the mountain wall.She was covered in blood and bruises. It was Sienna.Jonas glanced at her inadvertently. The moment he saw Sienna, he stopped in time, ran over, and asked, “Sienna, how did you get hurt so badly?” Sienna pointed at the high mountain wall and said indifferently, “It’s good enough that I survived.” Hank gulped and made a bold assumption, “Sienna, you… you didn’t rock-climb all the way down, did you?”“Yes.” Sienna nodded lightly. When Ha
In Clara’s eyes, as long as she cried and acted coquettishly, everything would be over just like that.It was just like every other time in the past. However, what she did not expect was that Jonas, who was watching her cry, was indifferent as he asked her a question in a tone that was so calm that it seemed almost unfamiliar to her. “Clara, did you really take care of me?”“…” Clara’s face was instantly pale. When Jonas was unconscious, she was busy being intimate with Quentin in order to enhance and strengthen her relationship with him.Clara said that she took care of him, but in fact, she had only been sitting next to him. Moreover, she was not the first to find out that he was down with a high fever. “Jonas…”Clara wanted to explain, but Jonas interrupted her indifferently, “Clara, I was still conscious even when I was unconscious.”Because he was conscious, he knew of Clara’s indifference and contempt for him; because he was conscious, he knew that Clara and Quentin
Christina was already waiting for him. When she saw that Quentin had opened his eyes, she walked forward with a smile and described everything that happened when he was unconscious to him in great detail.Christina was afraid that Quentin would not believe her, so she deliberately borrowed the staff’s cell phone to view the archive of each time period of the live broadcast. “Quentin, come here and take a look.”…In the virtual world, not long after Jonas had carried Hank ashore, he heard a second explosion in the forest!He suddenly raised his head and looked toward the cliff. His heartbeat quickened in an instant, and his mind even went blank.He escaped, but what about Sienna?There was only one parachute cloth. He landed successfully with Hank, but what about Sienna?Jonas raised his head, and his eyes suddenly flushed red in an instant. He originally thought that Sienna was urging him to jump down because she wanted to do an experiment. As such, he never thought that he
‘It is a fact that Clara didn’t hesitate to push Jonas from behind so that she could escape when they encountered the red fire ants before. Is this also considered right? Doesn’t this give you chills or make you feel scared? ‘Let me ask you, what will you feel when you’re facing the person that you’re desperately trying to protect and she suddenly stretches out her hands to push you to your death? Can you still empathize with her then? Can you still praise her for being kind? I’m sorry, but I can’t do that.’When the super fan was done speaking, the live broadcast room was even more deadly silent.However, Clara did not know anything about this.When she was desperately running forward, the only thoughts in her mind were to escape as soon as possible, find rescue as soon as possible, and then go back alive…Although she liked Quentin and also wanted to marry into the Kane family and become the veritable young mistress of the Kane family, the premise was that she would have to sur
