Five Years Gone, She Returned a Billionaire
Chapter 394: Lucas Needed to Go to the Office
"Alright."
Lucas needed to go to the office. He had spent over two weeks at Willowcrest Estate with Sienna, only handling meetings remotely. Dominic drove Sienna and Noah back to the manor first. Then he took Lucas to Prestige Builders. Sienna entered the villa with Noah. She saw Caleb and Vanessa sitting on the sofa. Vanessa was speaking to Caleb in a soft, soothing tone. Caleb was nodding diligently at her words. Sienna frowned. She looked down at Noah. "Noah, go upstairs first."
"I want to stay with you, Mommy! I'm a big man. I can protect you," Noah insisted.
He stepped in front of Sienna, glaring at Vanessa. Vanessa's face stiffened. Had she become a villain in this young master's eyes? Sienna must have poisoned his mind against her! She must have been bad-mouthing her behind her back! Vanessa suppressed her anger. She forced a faint smile. "Oh, Noah is here too. Auntie didn't know you were visiting. I didn't bring a gift. Don't worry, I'm your Mommy's sister. I won't harm you."
"Hah! Can you even believe your own words? Your voice is so fake and annoying! Shut up! Leave now!" Noah snapped impatiently.
Vanessa's face froze completely. Her words got stuck in her throat. Did he just speak to her like that? He called her... Sienna didn't want Noah involved in adult matters. She gently ruffled his hair. "Noah, be good. Go prepare the rock-climbing gear. Give me five minutes to make her leave, okay?"
"Okay, then," Noah muttered, pouting.
He still shot a scornful look at Vanessa. "Listen, you bad woman! I'm warning you! Don't hurt my Mommy, or my Daddy will make you pay!" Then he ran upstairs. Vanessa's expression shifted between shock and humiliation. She was once the top supermodel. Everyone used to respect and admire her. Now even a child despised her! How could a child say such cruel things? It had to be Sienna. Sienna must have slandered her behind her back. She must have ruined her reputation. Vanessa wanted to tear that pretty face to shreds.
But Caleb was here. She could only glare at Sienna with reddened eyes.
"Sienna, I've already apologized. Can't you forgive me? Why are you turning a child against me?"
"Hah! Slander? Are you even worth my time?" Sienna rolled her eyes.
She turned her cold gaze to Caleb. "This is my home. Why did you let a stray animal in without my permission?"
"She's not a stray animal! She's our sister!" Caleb insisted. "Don't forget how she always protected you when we were kids! Why are you two fighting over a man?!"
"Over a man? Caleb, let's get something straight," Sienna scoffed.
She pulled out her phone and played a video clip. The footage of Vanessa and Derek in bed appeared instantly. Vanessa's moans filled the room. "Derek darling, am I prettier? Or is Sienna prettier? Do you like me or her?"
"Derek darling, I'm just scared you'll fall for her. I'm scared her money and looks will tempt you. I'm terrified you'll stop loving me..."
"Will you still take her assets for me? Will you divorce her and marry me?"
Every word was fake yet seductive. Her expression in the video was completely different from the pure, innocent face she wore now. Caleb jolted. It was easy to forget how vicious Vanessa could be. Especially when the Vanessa standing before them seemed so gentle and kind. Who would believe she had this side? Until Sienna showed the video again.
