Chapter 803: Chapter 830: I Avenged You
Sienna Johnson once hated Pauline Briggs, disdainful of the teachings of the noblewoman that Pauline had taught her, but after so many years of deliberate instruction, Sienna, despite remaining rebellious at heart, couldn’t help but follow the standards of a noblewoman in her words and actions.
Damn, such a vulgar word, Sienna Johnson would never have said it before.
Sienna Johnson boldly unbuckled his belt, her small hand reaching inside... Previously, she only needed to slightly crook her finger, and Adrian Desmond would quickly react, especially since he hadn’t seen her for a long time.
However, "it" remained limp, like a defeated general.
Sienna Johnson felt a sharp pain in her heart.
Does he despise her for being impure now?
Her eyes stung fiercely, habitually raising her defenses when hurt, ensuring that when she was wounded, the other was also hurt by her sharp thorns.
She coldly whispered in his ear, "Adrian, I slept with Xavier Young. Do you despise me for being dirty?"
"You’re lying!" Adrian still refused to believe.
"Didn’t you see the bruises on my body? I might as well tell you, they were caused by Xavier Young..."
It felt like a hole had suddenly been gouged out of his heart, the speed too quick for him to react, and he dared not touch the grotesque throbbing.
"But I must tell you, I slept with Xavier Young, and it’s all your fault, and your uncle’s! Because if it weren’t for you two, I wouldn’t have been..." she clearly whispered in his ear, "raped!"
"..."
"Don’t forget, what was the reason I ended up in Xavier Young’s hands? Because of your dear uncle! Do you know why your uncle is still alive?
Because of me!
You took a bullet for him, and I used my body to redeem him, so he could live well!
Adrian, how will you repay me?"
Her hand gently stroked his face, which had lost weight, her fingers feeling the coarse stubble on his chin.
"Why aren’t you speaking?"
Adrian’s gaze became fixed, his dark pupils clouded with gloom, emotions too complex inside — shock, disbelief, anger, and pain...
"...Heh, I’ve messed with you for so long, and you still didn’t respond... Seems you really despise me now.
Besides, if you slept with another woman, I’d think you were dirty too!"
She withdrew her hand, wiped it on her pants, stood up, and bent over to walk out of the tent with Adrian not stopping her.
Sienna Johnson’s face remained calm, yet her heart surged turbulently; she had indeed fallen for this man, deeply, deeply.
So he held the weapon to hurt her, and if he wished, he could wound her entirely.
...
Lunch was very sumptuous, with roast chicken along with wild vegetable soup.
Though simple and coarse compared to her usual meals, in this harsh jungle, it was indeed a culinary delight.
Lucas Robertson brought back a few eggs while catching wild chickens, and Sienna Johnson cracked them into the wild vegetable soup, enhancing the flavor with vacuum-packed spicy beef. Perhaps she had eaten too many compressed biscuits, for Sienna found it quite delicious.
She ate half a chicken and drank a bowl of wild vegetable soup before stopping.
"Tomorrow, can I have roast chicken again?"
Sienna Johnson asked Lucas Robertson, who was silently eating beside her, raising his head as he felt all eyes on him.
What did this woman say to Adrian Desmond, why hadn’t Adrian come out of the tent, and why did everyone look at him as if he was Sienna Johnson’s "secret lover"?
"Bear with it, we need to hurry on our journey." Lucas Robertson refused.
Lucas reached out for the other half of the chicken, but Sienna Johnson grabbed it from him, tossing him a few compressed biscuits,
"I’ll save this chicken for dinner, you eat the biscuits."
Sabrina Conner watched the big man obediently gnaw on the biscuits, while the woman really packed up the chicken.
"Madam, are you taking that half of the chicken to Sixth Master? Sixth Master has been in the tent, hasn’t come out, he must be hungry too." Sabrina hinted.
"Why should I?" She squinted slightly, with cold eyes staring at Sabrina.
"You are Sixth Master’s wife, how can a woman eat the good stuff without leaving any for the man? As someone’s wife, don’t you have any awareness?"
