Chapter 191

Thom’s rage shot up in an instant, and he couldn’t hold back the murderous intent boiling over from deep within. He yanked Wayne by the collar, and the two of them started brawling again.

Even from a distance, Hudson could almost feel his own ribs cracking just by watching.

‘Ouch!’ Hudson winced inwardly.

That looks insanely painful, he thought.

Thank God it’s not me, he breathed a silent sigh of relief.

It didn’t take long for Thom to start losing ground. By the time Jason arrived, he saw Wayne pinning Thom down and beating him mercilessly, both of them covered in blood.

“Oh my God, stop! Stop!” Jason shouted, his heart racing.

“The reporters are filming this. Are they out of their minds?” he thought frantically.

Sienna watched with icy eyes as Thom got beaten up. He’d provoked her again and again, and she couldn’t stand him. Now that someone was finally putting him in his place, she was more than happy to sit back and enjoy the show.

“Enna, Enna, you have to stop Wayne. If this keeps up, he might actually kill him! I heard Thom isn’t right in the head. It’s not worth killing him,” Jason pleaded desperately.

Sienna suddenly remembered something about Thom.

“That’s enough, Wayne, please stop,” Sienna called out.

But Wayne was blinded by rage and didn’t even hear her. It wasn’t until a hand grabbed his fist that he snapped out of it, looking up to meet her gaze.

For a split second, he was completely thrown off.

“Stop,” Sienna said firmly.

Thom coughed up blood, the corner of his mouth curling into a wildly arrogant, triumphant grin.

“See? She’s on my side,” he sneered.

Wayne’s eyes turned red, a hint of vulnerability and grievance showing through. “Sienna, what is your relationship with him?”

Thom cut in loudly. “She’s my wife! What do you think our relationship is, Wayne! We’ve been together for ten years, and every single day, we’ve…”

Before he could finish, Sienna cut him off sharply, “Shut up!”

Thom met Sienna’s cold, razor-sharp gaze, and all the bravado drained from his eyes. He instantly clammed up. He just lay there, playing dead.

“Sienna, there’s nothing going on between you two, right?” Wayne asked, his voice trembling with uncertainty.

Sienna hesitated, not knowing how to answer. The truth was, back in Meridia, she was Thom’s sister. That secret made everything so much more complicated.

“Wayne, I…” Sienna started, but before she could finish, Thom suddenly grabbed her wrist and cried out in pain. “It hurts so much. Am I dying?”

With that, he squeezed his eyes shut and passed out cold. But his hand was still locked tightly around Sienna’s wrist.

Sienna checked his pulse and realized he was in bad shape. His old injuries hadn’t even healed yet, and now he had fresh ones on top of that.

“Reno, get him to the hospital,” she ordered.

She couldn’t let him die yet. If he did, she’d never be able to pay back what she owed the Noir family.

“Don’t go, Sienna,” Wayne said, almost begging, his voice trembling. He was battered and bruised, eyes rimmed red with desperation.

Jason and Hudson both got chills, goosebumps prickling all over their bodies due to the awkwardly intense scene.

Sienna took out a handkerchief and handed it to him. “Wayne, get up first. I’m not leaving. I just asked Reno to take Thom to the hospital.”

But Thom refused to let go, clinging to her wrist like his life depended on it.

Wayne was so pissed. “Sienna, don’t move! Jason, break his legs!”

Hearing that, Thom’s grip finally let go, his hand slowly sliding off.

Without thinking, Wayne wrapped his arm around Sienna’s waist, pulling her into his embrace, then viciously stomped down on Thom’s hand.

Thom’s body visibly twitched from the pain.

Wayne felt a rush of satisfaction. “Sienna, let’s go.”

Then he realized his arm was still wrapped around her waist. Her scent was intoxicating, and being this close to her was something he’d never even dared to dream about.

Her waist was so slender, the soft fabric of her clothes hugging her curves. In an instant, Wayne’s face flushed with heat.

Sienna felt the warmth of his hand on her waist and gently pushed him away, stepping back.

“Wayne, I think it’s better if I just come clean with you,” Sienna said quietly.

At those words, all the excitement and hope that had just surged in his heart got wiped out in an instant, like someone dumped a bucket of cold water on him. Whatever little ripples he had in his mind were gone.

“Sienna, my chest hurts so bad. Can you take me back with you?” Wayne clutched his chest, leaning in close to her, looking pitiful.

Sienna reached out to steady him. “Wayne, what’s wrong?”

Jason and Hudson exchanged a look. ‘Brother, your acting is so fake. You were just charging around like a bull, and now you’re pretending to be…’

‘Have some shame, will you?’ they thought.

“It’s nothing, Sienna. Maybe I just went a little too hard earlier. Would it be too much trouble for you to take me home?” Wayne looked at her with pleading eyes.

Just as Sienna was about to say it was no trouble, Ethan suddenly showed up.

“Let me take you home,” Ethan offered.

Wayne’s face darkened. “Can you just drop dead?” he fumed.

Jason and Hudson were both floored. ‘Where did this guy even pop out from? How did we not see him at all?’

Ethan looked absolutely haggard. Ever since the divorce, he’d been like a walking corpse.

“Don’t trouble Miss Enna. I’m heading that way anyway, so I can take you.” Before Ethan could finish, he was sent flying by a vicious kick.

“Who asked you to take me! And who the hell is your brother? Ethan, you jerk!” Wayne roared, practically spitting with rage.

Just a second ago, he was clutching his chest in pain. Now he was throwing punches and kicks at Ethan.

Sienna was a bit at a loss for words.

Meanwhile, Henry simply couldn’t accept the fact that the Winslow family was ruined just like that.

Sheryl watched, jaw clenched and eyes blazing, as their family’s possessions were hauled away one by one to pay off the debts.

“Why? Why?” Sheryl let out a furious roar.

“Why is it that, no matter how carefully I plan, I still end up losing to the Hart–family?” she fumed inwardly.

Damn you, Sienna! What kind of power do you really have? Sheryl fumed inwardly.

After seeing that short video blowing up online, Sheryl’s unwillingness finally pushed her to the beach. Why does Sienna get to have both Wayne and Thom fighting over her! What makes her so irresistible? she seethed.

Sheryl’s face contorted with jealousy and frustration as she slowly approached. But the moment she caught sight of Sienna’s face, she was stunned.

There wasn’t a single clear photo of Sienna online, just some blurry shots of her from behind.

Sheryl’s hands clenched tight, jealousy and resentment growing wild inside her like weeds. The hatred was so overwhelming, she wanted to tear everything apart. Her reason was completely devoured by envy and indignation.
