Chapter 2

Sienna's POV

When I came to, I found that I'd been taken to the hospital.

The moment I saw Elliott, I grabbed whatever was within reach and hurled it at him. "Elliott! Go to hell!"

A warm bottle of milk struck him in the head, leaving a small cut.

He looked at me helplessly, as if I were the one in the wrong. "Sienna, I already disciplined Jack, and he promised not to throw anything at you again. But at the end of the day, you brought this on yourself. If you hadn't gone after Lauren, Jack wouldn't have panicked like that. None of us had any idea you were…"

He trailed off with a heavy sigh.

I stared at his handsome, refined features. Once, I could never get enough of looking at him, but now it only made me sick.

Seeing my blank expression, Elliott assumed I was still angry and tried to soothe me gently. "Don't be mad. Lauren has already forgiven you, and I won't force you to apologize anymore. Once you recover, we can all live happily together. Isn't that what you've always wished for?"

Lauren had lost her parents at a young age. After we met, I brought her home to live with me.

After Mom passed away, the two of us huddled together for warmth like helpless little animals.

Once I got married, helping Lauren find someone and settle down happily became my top priority. But every time I brought it up, she'd shake her head and say she already liked someone.

She wouldn't tell me who it was, and I never pressed her. I just wished with all my heart that we could stay together.

I never imagined that the man she loved was my husband. In a sick, twisted way, my wish had already come true long ago.

My dad, my son, my husband—Lauren had taken everything I had.

And now, they took it for granted that I should just accept it. After all, it was my own wish.

I forced a faint smile, looked at him, and said calmly, "Elliott, I want a divorce."

Elliott froze, a flicker of panic flashing through his eyes. But he quickly composed himself, even offering me a smile. "Sienna, stop it. I know you can't accept all of this right away, but you don't need to pull a stunt like this just to get a reaction out of me. Without me, you have nowhere else to go."

His confidence unnerved me. Before I could question him, Lauren pushed open the door and stepped inside.

Tears welled in her eyes as she looked at me. "I'm sorry, Sienna. I never thought Elliott would actually leak the footage. Now photos of you changing are all over the internet. It's all my fault. I was only joking back then. I never expected he'd agree to install a camera in your master bedroom…"

She set her phone down in front of me. My eyes immediately locked onto the familiar photos and the filthy comments beneath them.

"Who knew Mrs. Quinn had such a great body? No wonder she's kept Mr. Quinn hooked for five years."

"Just look how fair her skin is. I heard Mrs. Quinn leaked the footage herself. Hahaha, rich people really know how to have fun."

A deafening roar exploded in my head.
