Chapter 308: Sienna's Nails Pressed Sharply into Her Palms

Sienna’s nails pressed sharply into her palms. She was known for her pristine reputation and virtuous character. She had always envisioned her future husband to be equally pure. But now… Although it seemed like a trap set by both Lucas and Sienna, their connection appeared far from superficial. The way Lucas held her, even kissed her…they must have been intimate. Sienna had an intense aversion to impurity. How could she accept a man who had been with another woman?

She rubbed her temples and murmured, “I need time. Wait for my instructions over the next few days. And deal with Sienna.” Did that fool Sienna actually think she could marry into the Harrington family? Ha! Once the Harringtons found out, Valerie wouldn’t even need to lift a finger to destroy her.

“Understood,” Miranda nodded, already typing on her phone.

The midsummer sky darkened abruptly as a strong wind swept through. Rain threatened to pour. A figure lurked near the Harrington Estate, waiting for the right moment to capture photos.

Meanwhile…

Sienna received a call from Miles. “Boss Bennett, someone is attempting to photograph you and Mr. Harrington together.” Sienna frowned. Already? It seemed Valerie was planning to use Senior Harrington against her. But did Valerie really think it would be that easy to get a photo? Ha!

“Monitor them,” Sienna ordered. “Keep me informed.”

She ended the call, her expression hardening. She had no plans to leave the estate for the next two days anyway. Let them wait all they wanted. The scorching weather made the task nearly impossible. The spy hired by Miranda endured blistering heat by day and swarms of mosquitoes by night. Still, not a single photo of Sienna was captured. Before long, the Starlight Gala was just one day away. The organizing team had invested heavily to promote traditional culture.

Sienna, wanting to spend time with Noah, passed all opportunities to her signed artists and stayed out of the spotlight. However, on the evening before the event, Logan called urgently. “It’s bad! We can’t locate Aurora!”

“Aurora is missing?” Sienna’s eyes narrowed. “Have you searched everywhere?”

“Yes! We lost contact this afternoon. Her manager and assistants have turned everywhere upside down. Her phone is off. It’s strange,” Logan explained.

Sienna frowned. Of all days, why today? Aurora had been in high spirits lately. Sienna had provided her with an excellent proposal that would let her shine at the event. After all she had been through, it made no sense for her to disappear now. A thought struck Sienna. “Find Grant Mercer. Check all his usual spots. Notify Owen and Miles immediately.”

“Got it!” Logan sensed the urgency and sprang into action.

Sienna glanced at the sky. Though it was only evening, dark clouds loomed overhead. A heavy rain was coming. If they didn’t find Aurora soon, the downpour would make everything much harder. It wasn’t just about the massive penalty fee owed to Celestial. Given Grant’s temperament, who knew what he might do to Aurora? If anything happened…
