Chapter 353

Author: Ink the Seventh
That night, Sierra sat across from John at dinner.

Her phone suddenly rang, sounding sharp and urgent. When she saw Jubilee calling, she answered without hesitation. "Jubilee?"

John had no idea what Jubilee was saying on the other end. He only saw Sierra slowly stop eating as the call went on, strong emotion gathering in her eyes.

"Are... Are you entirely certain?" For the first time, Sierra felt a surge of emotion in her chest so strong that it almost hurt.

"Why would I even lie to you abou

    Sierra's heart sank when she heard Anna's explanation. She had not expected Daniel to be thinking that far ahead."That's it, more or less." Anna said as she looked at Sierra with mixed emotions.Anna had her issues with John, but she also had to admit that in some ways, he was thoroughly devoted to Sierra. She had not paid much attention earlier, but she had clearly noticed the extra layer of protection around the house during this time.No one could really stop someone from truly wanting to protect another."I understand," Sierra said. She remained calm even when she understood everything now."Don't take it too seriously." Anna did not want her daughter to carry the weight of her own past. Sierra had every right to choose everything she wanted for herself. "No matter what you decide, I'll support you."Sierra nodded in agreement.After they talked a little longer, Anna told her to go back to her room and wait for the results.Sierra did not ask any more questions as she went

    After Sierra got home that day, she played with Tommy for more than an hour before going to see Anna. The two of them took a slow walk through the garden.Seeing how calm and quiet she was, Anna asked, "Something on your mind?"Sierra nodded. After taking a moment to collect herself, she asked, "Is it wrong to doubt someone who has been treating you well?""A friend?" Anna asked."No," Sierra said.Anna thought about the people Sierra had been around lately. After a while, she asked carefully, "Tony and Marcus?""Was it that obvious?" Sierra felt torn. Part of her thought their backgrounds were a little complicated. Another part worried that doubting them might hurt them.Anna answered honestly. "No, it wasn't."Sierra let out a small breath. "That's good.""What are you suspicious about?" Anna asked. She did not know what had happened between them. After coming back, she handed everything over to her daughter.Sierra told her about her doubts and everything she had noticed.

    Sierra picked up her phone and went back to the work messages she had not finished answering. After wrapping things up with the product manager and technical director, she looked at Marcus and Tony again.Over the past two days, she had received the files on both of them. Everything looked clean and it showed that they were just two ordinary people looking for work. But after spending this much time with them, the way they saw things and the calm way they handled everything still made her suspicious about who they really were.Marcus was so calm he almost seemed like an android, while Tony knew so much that he felt like a walking encyclopedia."Tony." Sierra decided to test him again."You rang, miss?" Tony had a way with words that made everything sound like a drama."You said earlier that ninety-five percent of the way Daniel looked at me was about benefits," Sierra said. "How could you tell? Say whatever that's in your mind."Tony glanced at the man in the passenger seat. "M

    "We still don't know," Tony said to Sierra back in the car. "But from now on, don't take anything Daniel said too seriously.""Agreed," Marcus said.If even Marcus agreed, Sierra answered without hesitation. "Alright.""You trust us that much?" Tony was a little surprised she had not even stopped to think about their assessment. "Aren't you worried we're simply making things up to stop you from getting rich?""You might," Sierra said. Now that he had been around for a while, she could joke with him too. "But Marcus wouldn't."Marcus looked pleased and he sat up a little straighter. He absolutely would not let his boss down."Not necessarily." Tony drove with easy confidence in his tone. "Haven't you noticed that in a lot of movies, the real mastermind is always the one who seems harmless at first? The one nobody suspects?""That's in movies," Sierra said."Real life can be more dramatic than movies," Tony said."Then you must be the villain," Sierra continued.Tony blinked.

    Daniel said to Nathan who appeared after Sierra left, "I wanted to see how much progress you've made these past few days trying to win your wife and daughter back." Nathan said nothing. Daniel didn't hesitate to give Nathan a piece of his mind. "From the looks of it, you've made no progress at all." "If you hadn't been the greatest obstacle between us back then, would things have turned out like this at all?" Nathan knew he had been at fault too, but Daniel was hardly innocent out of all this. "You couldn't clean up your own mess back then and now you're blaming me?" Daniel said bluntly. "Don't say I didn't warn you. The annual shareholders meeting is coming up soon. When it does, your youngest uncle won't let this slide." Nathan replied calmly, "You can't keep your own brother in line and that is somehow my problem?" Daniel opened his mouth, but he only gave a cold snort in the end. While he was his younger brother, their parents had him a lot late in life. That left a wid

    Sierra arrived at the Lynch family's estate around six-thirty that evening. Looking at the sharp-eyed old man seated at the head of the table, she asked plainly, "Why did you ask me here, Mr. Lynch?" If she had been alone, she would not have come at all. The Lynch family might look alright from the outside, but she knew there was a lot of problems inside. But with Marcus and Tony with her, she did not need to be on her guard that much. "It's nothing serious," Daniel said. He looked even sterner than Cyrus, but this was already as gentle as he could manage. "I just wanted you to come and have dinner with me as we chatted a little." Sierra did not say much. If this had happened when she first arrived in Harbor City, she might have gotten up and left on the spot. But after everything she had been through, she understood something new. In this circle, even people who disliked each other would still sit down for a meal and a conversation. Every meal and every word said during every

    Kenneth decided the only explanation was that both John and Eagon were all a little unwell in the head. That was why he could not make sense of what they were doing. That was right… That had to be it!Kenneth left Henderson Group with a strange feeling in his heart, thoughts churning.Before tha

    "Alright." Sierra went along with Jenny, her eyes gleaming. "Thank you, Sis."Jenny stayed as calm as ever. "Focus on your work."Sierra nodded. "Okay."That morning, Sierra made a few subtle tweaks to the piece Jenny had mentioned, then went back to finishing the rest of the illustration. Once s

    John met his parents' eyes."I'm doing what the CEO of Henderson Group should do."That was a statement, and not a question.However, Danny blurted out without thinking, "Whatever it is, it's not what you're doing right now!"John didn't look at Danny again and simply walked away.He had made t

    Cindy wasn't surprised. John was the CEO of Henderson Group, after all. He only attended the main company's annual party every year and never showed up at events for the listed subsidiaries, much less something like Origin Games, which didn't even rank among his top companies. There was no reason
