Chapter 281

Sienna paused for a moment. To be honest, she hadn't really thought about it."Jessica, I'm in love with Nathan—""Sienna, stop waiting for Nathan," Jessica interrupted. "He's already got an engagement set with Lucille Jenner. The marriage between the Lowe and Jenner families is official, and it's unbreakable. You need to find a new target, fast."Jessica continued, "The Greenwood family is one of the most prestigious in Hovendale. Gilbert is well-born, and his character is excellent. He's the husband the Lincoln family picked out for Bebe. If you can steal him, you'll marry into the Greenwood family!"Jessica was right. Nathan was about to get married. Even though Sienna still had feelings for him, she couldn't waste her youth waiting for someone who was out of reach.Sienna had always been a side branch of the Hawk family, and just earlier, Isabel had humiliated her. She needed to find a good match.Now, Gilbert seemed like the best option.Being chosen by the Lincoln family m

Gilbert turned around and was met with Sienna's fresh and beautiful face. His eyes lit up. "Sienna? Why are you here?"Sienna was dressed in a navy-collared white and blue top, paired with a black skirt that perfectly accentuated her curves. She stood before Gilbert, her legs straight and graceful. With a playful smile, she said, "Gilbert, today you let me ride in your car to escape the rain. Now, I'm holding an umbrella for you. I'd say we're even."Gilbert chuckled."You have a date, right?" Sienna asked. "Here, you can keep the umbrella. I'll head off now."She turned to leave. But after taking a step, she suddenly twisted her ankle and winced in pain.Gilbert immediately stepped forward with concern. "Sienna, are you okay?" Tears welled up in Sienna's eyes from the pain. She looked helpless and fragile. "I twisted my ankle... It hurts so much…""I'll carry you to the infirmary," Gilbert said, reaching out to lift her in his arms.Sienna looked up at his handsome face. "B

Sienna pulled out her phone and called Jessica. When Jessica heard that Halsey had waited for hours in the theater and came back drenched, she burst into laughter."This is too much! The Lincoln family's darling, who? Who cares if she's from a rich family? She's just an uggo. Sienna, you're amazing! Gilbert's completely smitten by you now."Sienna smirked. "Don't get ahead of yourself. There's more to come tomorrow."Jessica laughed. "That's what she gets for teaming up with Wendy and trying to go against us. This is her lesson. I'm waiting for more good news from you.""Don't worry, Jessica. I've got it all under control."-Wendy didn't return to the dorm until late. The dorm was dark, and the lights were off.Could Halsey still be out on her date?

Halsey was in shock, unable to comprehend what Gilbert was saying.So, he only got close to her because of family pressure. He had complimented her, said she was beautiful, and even agreed to marry her. But in his eyes, she was just an "uggo"!So this was his true feeling all along.Her face turned pale."Halsey, I don't want to see Sienna hurt again. You should just kill yourself!"Gilbert threw the cruel words at her, then turned and walked away.Halsey stumbled back several steps, her eyes welling up with tears. She quickly covered her mouth and ran out of the dorm.The rain still fell, mirroring the storm in her heart. Halsey ran out of Clavendale University and hailed a taxi at the entrance."You're just so ugly. You're nothing more than an uggo! You should just kill yourself!"Gilbert's cold, heartless words echoed in her ears, and the tears came flooding down. Halsey's sobs grew louder as she cried uncontrollably."Where to, miss?""Take me to the Lincolns' residence

Stanley's long fingers paused for a moment."Drive. We need to find Halsey as soon as possible."Stanley glanced at Wendy through the rearview mirror. She sat in the back seat, her eyes glued to her phone. Her face was pale, and the cold, ethereal beauty of her features seemed even more delicate in her anxious state. Her mind was entirely focused on Halsey, and she hadn't even looked at him. The distance between them, once so close, felt like a vast chasm now, strange and distant.Stanley turned his gaze back to the road and stepped on the accelerator. "Alright."-Halsey had been crying nonstop. She was heartbroken, yet as the tears fell, something didn't feel right. She realized that the road outside the car window wasn't the way home, and the path was growing more desolate and isolated with each passing mile.Halsey looked toward the driver. "This isn't Palm Street. Where are you taking me?"The driver removed his cap, revealing a scarred face. He grinned maliciously. "

The one who appeared before her was a young man, dressed in a black T-shirt and pants. Halsey immediately recognized him—Dwight Garner.Dwight, along with Gilbert, was one of the two most popular guys at Clavendale University. While Gilbert was the cheerful and handsome rich heir, admired by many girls, Dwight was cold and solitary. The girls were too intimidated to approach him, yet the girls' dormitory buzzed with rumors about him every night.Halsey watched as Dwight stepped forward, yanking the Stormborn Devil away with a powerful motion. The Stormborn Devil quickly regained his composure and snarled, his face twisting in rage. "You brat! How dare you ruin my fun!"With that, the Stormborn Devil swung a punch at Dwight.Dwight, agile and quick, effortlessly dodged the blow and retaliated with a punch to the Stormborn Devil's stomach. With a loud bang, the Stormborn Devil crashed into the side of the car, spitting out a mouthful of blood.Dwight had a buzz cut, his features s

He gave the address, his voice cold as he spoke into the phone. "The guy's out cold… Quit wasting time. Just transfer the money to my card."Halsey had no idea who he was calling. In a daze, she quickly slipped on his jacket, covering her exposed skin.She supported herself against the side of the cab, trying to stand up. She wanted to thank Dwight, but before she could, a familiar, clear voice rang out from the distance. "Halsey! Halsey, where are you?"Wendy had arrived.By the time Halsey turned around, Dwight had already disappeared. How had he left so quickly?She hadn't even had the chance to thank him in person.-Stanley and Wendy had arrived, and Stanley had noticed the skid marks on the road. Understanding what had happened, he and Wendy had gotten out of the car to search.Wendy rushed over when she saw Halsey. "Halsey, are you okay? What are you doing out here? You scared me to death!"Stanley looked down at the unconscious driver lying on the ground, already p

Was the officer asking about Dwight? Had Dwight's phone call earlier been to this officer?Halsey nodded slowly, her voice soft. "Yeah, he's gone."The officer didn't say anything else. "We'll lock this guy up. Tomorrow, we'll need you to come in and give a statement."Halsey nodded again. "Okay.""It's rainy season now, and a thunderstorm is coming. It's not safe to head back in this weather. There's a rest stop up ahead. You should go there, take a hot shower, and change into some dry clothes. You wouldn't want to catch a cold," advised the officer kindly.Stanley, Wendy, and Halsey were all soaked through. It was late autumn, and the chill in the air only made the rain feel colder. With no better option, they followed the officer's advice and made their way to the rest stop.-The rest stop wasn't large, but it was clean. The young man at the front desk led them to a room. "Sorry, this is the only room available tonight."Three people in one room?Wendy glanced inside and s

Wendy studied Stanley with her clear, sharp eyes as she flashed a teasing smile. "You're constantly surrounded by powerful men. If you find someone suitable, maybe you could introduce me."Stanley glanced at her briefly before looking away, his expression unreadable. He casually tugged off his tie, his voice low and indifferent. "If I meet someone suitable, I'll introduce you.""Thanks, Mr. Hawk."Just then, the bathroom door opened. Halsey quickly came out, her hair still damp. "Wendy, hurry up and go shower."Wendy didn't hesitate. She walked into the bathroom without a word.The last to shower was Stanley. By the time he entered, both girls had already settled into bed.Halsey, who had cried earlier, was now calm. She had told Wendy everything about Gilbert and Sienna.After hearing the full story, Wendy furrowed her brow. "Sounds like Sienna intentionally stole your fiancé. She's easy to deal with, but the real problem is Gilbert. Do you still have feelings for him?"Hals
