Revenge?Arlo restrained a smile of contempt and raised a brow, saying, "That's going to be difficult—she is Lone Shadow, and from the intel I gathered, her whereabouts are never known. No one knows where she is, and you'll never find her!"Justin was naturally aware of that as well, but he was too stubborn to give up on anything he set his mind on.As such, even if finding Lone Shadow was no different from finding a needle in a haystack, he would scrounge through the haystack at least once!"I don't think she can hide from me!" Justin growled, lifting his dark gaze.Arlo shook his head before he turned around and left the room. His car was already waiting outside, and he instructed the driver once he got in, "Drive. Take me to the airport."… Arlo's private jet streaked through the night sky before landing at Isonbert at 10.00PM.The instant he got off, he found a tall, slim figure waiting by the road. Chuckling, he called out, "Felicity."The figure turned around, and it wa
’No way! Did she stand me up?!‘Still, that’s not quite right because I came here on my own volition.’Stopping a girl nearby, he asked, "Excuse me, but would you happen to know where Sienna Lang is? Is she not coming today?"It just so happened that the one he had stopped was Clara, who studied him from head to toe. Though she decided that he was not from Isonbert, she could tell that he was from an important family.But why would a person like him be looking for Sienna?Combing her hair behind her ear, Clara flashed her impeccable smile as she replied, "I don't know. She's always skipping classes, so she's probably doing it today as well.""Oh. Thanks."Arlo was not at all disappointed. However, since he would be staying at Isonbert for a while, he would definitely meet her!However, although he came to the university over the next three days as well, he still did not manage to meet her. It was not until the following week that Sienna finally showed up at school. Having bee
In the perspective of the onlooking students, it was all a show—a delightful feast! Meanwhile, Flora was glaring ahead furiously, her conceit there for all to see as she yelled at the girl, "Tell me, Janice—why did you go through great lengths to help that b*tch, Sienna? Do you regret opposing me now? Say you do and beg for mercy… then I just might consider sparing you!"Nonetheless, Janice said nothing.Her resistance and refusal was too obvious!"Fine. Have it your way!" Flora laughed icily. "You asked for it, b*tch!"This time, she fired a shot with everything she got!Whack!The tennis ball shot forward like a bullet, but just as it was about to hit Janice on the face, a slim figure abruptly appeared before it picked up the tennis racket on the ground and returned the shot with a backhand! Pow!This time, the tennis ball shot out with even more power and precision back toward Flora, hitting her squarely in the forehead, sending her stumbling backward with a loud yelp.F
Flexing her wrist, Sienna said nonchalantly, "Cut the crap and start serving."Flora was already raring to go, and her fiery eagerness was showing all over her face.She was an avid tennis player who had taken part in various tournaments. With her skill and physique, Sienna just might lose even if they were playing singles, and now, she had four of her lackeys on her side!"Serve!" she snapped loudly at one of her lackeys, who sent the tennis ball streaking toward Sienna!Everyone else was watching the match wide-eyed—including Janice. She had stayed amongst the crowd despite her limp and could feel cold sweat on her palms. As everyone looked on, Sienna swung her racket, sending the ball back from whence it came, hitting the server with a smack!In fact, she did the same for every subsequent ball sent at her, which left Flora gritting her teeth in frustration. "No more games! Serve together!" After all, with everyone launching their balls at Sienna endlessly, she doubted tha
Arlo stepped out from the crow, studying Sienna as if she was an item while he flashed his self-indulgent smile. His gaze seemed to sparkle even as he spoke casually. "You certainly deserve the title of Isonbert's most beautiful lady."In fact, he had thought everything about Sienna was an exaggeration before meeting her. But at this very moment, he must admit that the lady before her was as intoxicating as she was unforgettable.Nonetheless, Sienna remained impassive despite Arlo's flattery. In fact, she wanted to roll her eyes.‘Is the world really this small? Why did Arlo show up here, of all places?”Fortunately, she had put on a disguise before taking on the mission of spying on Justin and never showed her true face. As such, she was not worried that Arlo would recognize her even if they were face-to-face.Throwing her tennis racket aside, Sienna cut a path through the crowd and left, while Janice mustered her courage and gingerly followed her."You were waiting for me,
The lady before Arlo had just told him that he did not catch her eye, and he almost could not believe his ears. Nonetheless, he restrained his irritation and asked, "Really? Do you not find me attractive at all?" Sienna merely gave him a look of sympathy. "Sorry, sir, but what gave you such confidence?"It was a ruthless line, and it left Arlo's face pale!For the first time, he actually doubted his looks. Was he not handsome enough? Not attractive enough? Or perhaps he was not important enough?Suddenly, he felt like he had had a bucket of water poured over him as he pondered the meaning of his existence.Meanwhile, Sienna was not bothered to entertain him further, and Janice just happened to be leaving the nurse's room."Let's go," she said."Okay," Janice replied.Still, as she jogged to catch up to Sienna, she spotted a patch of redness on Sienna's sleeve and gasped in surprise, "Sienna, y-you're hurt! There's blood on your wrist!"Sienna did a double take and soon real
"Got it," Sienna replied and headed upstairs.The door to her room was not locked, and Sienna entered to find Harry sitting on the couch beside her bed, casually flipping through a book on her desk, his long, clean fingers looking firm and strong. The bedroom was brightly lit, throwing a warm glow over his chiseled face. As always, his visage projected warmth, and his dark, blazing gaze drew people in like a blackhole. That was when he looked up from the book and saw Sienna.None of them spoke, and the bedroom was so silent one could hear a pin drop.Sienna had an idea why he was here, and hence took out the contract signed before from her drawer and handed it to him. "The contract period may be over, but the conditions we agreed upon still apply—I’ll help you root out the poison in your body, so you don't have to worry about that."Harry stared at her for a long while, but a storm was now brewing behind his calm gaze."I've been gone for days, but this is all you can think ab
Since she was heading to the desert the day after tomorrow, Sienna had two days to make various arrangements. Still, she did not have to apply for leave from school since Dr. Watte was around to help.All that was left was to make arrangements at Universal Atrium. Sienna arrived there in the afternoon in her own car, but when she reached the entrance, she found Clara exiting with a crowd.It seemed that she was here for the second recording. Lately, Clara's popularity had skyrocketed, and the fans mobbing her were all squealing in delight as one would when spotting a celebrity. Sienna had just parked her car and was heading inside Universal Atrium when Clara's eyes sharply caught sight of her, then she rushed toward her with a look of delight. "Did you come to see me too?"Sienna smiled faintly. "No.""Oh, then are you going to meet the director of Ninja Survivor? I can introduce you to him—he's a very nice guy." Clara continued as if she was offering a boon, but it was cle
