Chapter 272: Sienna's Eyes Darkened

“So without the media leak, Aurora might never have discovered the truth…”

Sienna’s eyes darkened. That bastard had covered his tracks perfectly. Still… She turned, her voice low and resolute. “The one who deserves to die isn’t you. It’s Grant Mercer. You will live. I’ll prove your innocence before the Starlight Gala. If I fail, I’ll die with you.” Her cold words hung in the air as she strode out, her posture unyielding.

Aurora frowned, but a faint spark lit in her eyes. Before the Starlight Gala? Prove her innocence? The event was only five days away. How could Sienna possibly clear her name in such a short time? She was publicly branded a home-wrecker, a mistress who destroyed a family. She couldn’t even forgive herself. How could Sienna save her?

Sienna sped away from Summit Media, her mind racing. So this was why Kelly let Aurora go free. She set this up to make me lose money! The scandal would cost RisingHawk billions. The company’s reputation would be ruined. For Aurora’s sake and for her own company, Sienna had to fix this. But with no evidence… Hah! She screeched to a halt in the underground garage. Noah was pacing anxiously. She quickly dismounted. “Noah, what’s wrong? Why are you down here?”

“Mommy! You’re back! Waa… Noah saw the video! Noah was so scared…! Waa…!” Noah ran into her arms on his short, chubby legs.

Sienna frowned. “What video?”

“This one! Where you jumped off the building to save that lady…! Waa… Noah was terrified! Scared you’d get hurt! Scared you’d leave Noah! It took so long to find a Mommy I like… Waa…!” He sobbed, handing her his phone.

She finally understood. Her rescue of Aurora had been live-streamed. It was trending. Her agile moves had won her fans, but many criticized her for saving a mistress. Sienna had no time for that. She put the phone away and ruffled his hair. “Don’t cry, Noah. I know what I’m doing. I never take risks I can’t handle. No matter what happens, you must trust me. Okay?”

“Okay! But Noah doesn’t want you to risk your life! Noah wants you to be Daddy’s princess! Let Daddy handle these things! Even if it means he has to jump off a building!” Noah declared seriously.

Sienna was stunned. Ask him to jump? Did that mean she ranked higher than Lucas in Noah’s heart? The thought warmed her. She took his chubby hand. “You’re the best, Noah. Let’s go upstairs. I’ll make you a special dinner tonight, okay?” Noah tugged her hand. “We can’t, Mommy. Auntie Valerie is here.” Sienna frowned. “Auntie Valerie?”

“Yes. Valerie Duval. She’s with Daddy,” Noah explained.

A strange pang hit her heart. So Valerie was here. With Lucas. He left Noah waiting in the garage while he spent time alone with Valerie at home?
