Chapter 894: Chapter 886: High School Reunion Invitation
Sileria City, scorching summer.
Maybe it’s because of Sienna Johnson’s pregnancy, the weather here is unbearably hot. Sienna stays in the air-conditioned room all the time, not daring to go outside. Who would have thought she’d catch a cold from the air conditioning?
She can’t take medicine, so she can only drink more water and eat bland food, using diet therapy. As you can imagine, she’s really uncomfortable.
"Curly, Mom has watermelon here, come and eat." Seeing Curly run in from outside, Sienna Johnson warmly greeted her.
Curly glanced at her sideways, huffed coldly through her nose, and left.
Sienna Johnson: ...
"Still angry?"
Because Sienna sent the little leopard to the zoo, Curly went into a cold war with Sienna.
Sally said, "Curly really loves that little leopard. Madam let her play with it for a few days. Maybe she’d be fine after that."
"You don’t understand Curly. If you let her play with it for a few days, she wouldn’t be willing to let it go."
No one knows a daughter better than her mother. Sienna Johnson knew very well that once something goes into Curly’s pocket, you can forget about getting it out.
The sound of cicadas outside the window was irritating, making people feel restless. This summer, due to pregnancy, Sienna Johnson found it unbearable.
"Miss, you have some mail."
Kathryn came in from outside, holding several letters, and pulled one out to hand to Sienna Johnson.
Sienna took it and saw the familiar name: Bradley Smith!
Bradley Smith, someone Sienna Johnson knew.
Her high school class president, now working at Sileria City Customs as a deputy director. His rapid promotion is enviable.
Sienna opened it to find an invitation to a class reunion.
Sienna’s high school was also a private elite school. Actually, Orienta has no real aristocracy. So-called elite schools are just expensive, filled with wealthy kids.
Back then, with Sienna Johnson’s grades, she could have attended a top city high school, and she was happy to go, but Pauline Briggs and Sabrina Johnson stopped her. Of course, primarily it was Sabrina who stopped her. Her mom, who spoiled Sabrina immensely, was fooled in a few words by Sabrina.
Sally noticed Sienna Johnson was clearly tempted and reminded her, "Madam, you’re still under confinement right now!"
"That’s why the invitation came at just the right time." She held up the invitation and waved it.
"Didn’t Madam not like those people? Why attend?"
Sienna Johnson’s sharp eyes swept across Sally’s face, "Seems like you know my affairs well."
"Yes, I know most of Madam’s affairs and preferences. Sixth Master sent me to serve and protect Madam, so I naturally have to do my duty." Sally didn’t shy away.
"Life is too boring. I suddenly want to see how those once arrogant people are doing now.
Also, I wonder if they know Sabrina Johnson is in prison."
Back then, Sienna Johnson fell hard at the hands of Sabrina Johnson.
Sabrina, along with her sisterhood, known as the "Seven Fairies," joined forces to make Sienna Johnson’s high school life incredibly miserable.
Moreover, Sienna Johnson was beautiful, and envious girls didn’t like her;
Sienna Johnson was aloof, and boys who couldn’t win her over didn’t like her;
Imagine how passive her situation was back then.
At that time, Sienna Johnson was still naive, just wanted to study well, get into a good college, and after graduation work at Eastminster Group with her father.
Initially, Sienna Johnson’s high school life indeed developed as she expected, plain and fulfilling.
So, when did it start changing?
Was it when Sabrina Johnson "accidentally" revealed she was Eastminster Group’s daughter who was abandoned outside, or when Sabrina "accidentally" saw her with a middle-aged man?
Sabrina Johnson went from being the Johnson Family’s princess to Cinderella. It didn’t cost her popularity, but instead gained her more sympathy.
At that time, the Korean drama "Autumn in My Heart" was very popular, and Sabrina Johnson was the pitiful Eun-suh. She was the wicked Choi Shin-ae.
Sabrina Johnson’s eye drops worked silently, solving those friendly classmates in minutes.
This wasn’t the most outrageous part. Sabrina Johnson also claimed that those people were bad-mouthing her behind her back, telling Sienna Johnson not to associate with those who were friendly to her.
Fortunately, Sienna Johnson had a brain, otherwise she would have been played like a fiddle by Sabrina Johnson.
Sienna Johnson chuckled darkly, "Wonder if the ’Seven Fairies’ sisterhood will go?... Oh, right, now it’s just ’Six Fairies,’ one fairy can never go."
"Madam, planning to go?"
"I’m definitely going!"
"..."
"Life is too dull, I’m going to find myself some entertainment!"
...
The old lady heard that Sienna Johnson wanted to attend a class reunion and came to inquire personally. Sienna was about to give birth, and the old lady really wasn’t at ease.
"You’re about to give birth, can’t you settle down?" The old lady said sternly.
"Grandma, I’m pregnant, not a criminal. I want to attend a class reunion! And you always say to make more connections. My high school classmates are either rich or noble, which will be beneficial for our family later."
"Don’t think I don’t know. You didn’t get along well with those high school classmates."
"That’s why I’m going! To show them how well I’m doing now."
"You’re strong-willed and stubborn. I know I can’t stop you, but you should take more people with you." The old lady, seeing that Sienna Johnson was determined, only advised further as a compromise.
"Understood, Grandma."
"Are you and Adrian Desmond arguing again?"
"No, we’re good."
"You’re about to give birth, why hasn’t he come yet?"
"He’s busy!"
The old lady looked at Sienna, anxious and worried, "Sienna, being too strong isn’t good. Though Adrian married into the family, he’s still a man, and I see he’s quite prominent in Abyanabad. You can’t disrespect him."
Sienna Johnson chuckled helplessly, "Grandma, how am I disrespecting him?"
"Tell Adrian to come back soon.
A woman giving birth needs the child’s father outside to push the process smoothly."
In Sileria City, the custom is for the child’s father to accompany during labor, supposedly to ensure a smooth birth.
Sienna Johnson thought it made sense.
From a psychological perspective, a woman giving birth must be very anxious. Having her husband outside is like giving her a tranquilizer pill, making her less tense during labor, physically and mentally relaxed, making childbirth easier.
"Okay, I’ll call him tonight."
In the evening, Sienna Johnson called Adrian, but couldn’t get through, thinking he was busy and didn’t mind.
