Tess’s voice was warm and calm, but to Sienna, it felt like a storm crashing down on her.
Her head pounded. Tess continued, gently but mercilessly, “Oh, by the way, I already contacted the Aetheris Police Department. Jolie’s case is serious. It caused serious harm to my body and my mental health.”
Sienna’s eyes widened. She never imagined Tess would push her this far.
Jolie reacted stronger. No one knew where she found the strength, but she suddenly broke free from Sienna and threw herself at Cyrus.
She could tell from Sienna’s silence that her mother was wavering. And Jolie refused to go to jail.
“Daddy! Daddy! I don’t want to go there! I don’t want to!”
She screamed, clutching Cyrus’s arm for dear life.
Cyrus flinched from her shrill voice. His head throbbed as he looked at Sienna, who had gone pale as paper.
“Daddy! Tell Mom! Please! I’m still so young–how can I go to jail?! I don’t want to! I don’t want to! Didn’t you both tell me to go through with that arranged marriage? Fine! I’ll go! I’ll do it! I don’t want Steven anymore!”
She identally nced toward the window and froze. Police cars. Several of them. Parked right outside. Jolie nearly copsed on the spot, her face twisting in fear as she sobbed uncontrobly.
Sienna’s presence was icy and intimidating now. Jolie didn’t dare run to her. All she could do was cling to Cyrus, begging him to beg for her.
Tess watched the chaotic scene withplete ease.
She even leaned back in her soft chair, rxed and unbothered.
“Ms. Reagen, you can take your time,” Tess added, casually adding fuel to the fire.
Jolie whipped her head toward her. Tess’s fingers tapped the desk, slow, steady taps that hit Jolie’s nerves like hammer blows.

Jolie widened her eyes while her cries grew even more desperate.
Compared to her, Sienna looked disturbingly calm. <ul><li>30 Free Coing </li></ul>
The cries echoed through the office. Even some reporters watching couldn’t help feeling bad.
“Isn’t this just some business event? How can it be more important than your daughter<i>?</i>”
“Yeah, a criminal record at her age? That’ll ruin her whole future.”
The media loved gossip. And since Jolie’s cries were loud enough to cover their whispers, <i>a </i>few reporters had already started murmuring among themselves.
But one phrase–go to jail and leave a record–made Tess’s fingers stiff for a split second.
“If Ms. Reagen really can’t decide,” Tess said suddenly, rising to her feet, her face cold and sharp, “then I’ll decide for you.”
Clearly, she’d run out of patience.
“Since Ms. Reagen cares so much about the Financial Summit and since the police cars are already downstairs, let’s have someone take Ms. Jolie down first.”
She raised a brow.
Before the words settled, Abel stepped forward and ced a firm hand on Jolie’s shoulder.
As a mother, Sienna instinctively reached out to stop him. But the moment she lifted her eyes, she froze. That face. Sharp. Arrogant. Dangerous.
Abel.
She widened her eyes in shock.
<i>The </i><i>Shaws</i>–<i>no</i>, <i>Kingnd’s</i><i>–</i><i>golden </i><i>boy</i><i>! </i><i>Why </i><i>is </i><i>he </i><i>here </i><i>in </i><i>Aetheris</i><i>? </i>
Her hand trembled, and she pulled it back.
Jolie saw Abel’s hand getting closer andpletely broke down. She yelled, “No! I don’t want to! Mom! Daddy!”
She staggered toward her parents, reaching for them. Cyrus stared closely at Sienna. She gave no reaction, and he didn’t lift a hand to stop anything.

Jolie’s heart dropped straight into a freezing abyss. In that moment, she felt like she was drowning in ice.
Abel was never the patient type. He mped a firm hand down on Jolie’s shoulder.
Jolie yelped, but before she could get another sound out, Abel snatched a napkin from the table and shoved it right into her mouth.
“Enough noise,” he muttered, digging a finger into his ear like she was nothing but a buzzing fly.
Then, he dragged her straight toward the door.
Jolie’s eyes went wide. Panic swallowed her whole. She stared at Sienna, desperate and confused.
<i>Why</i><i>? </i>
Why wasn’t her mom saving her? Was some business summit more important than her life?
Jolie felt her heart drop, inch by inch, until it hit rock bottom and shattered.
The frantic light in her eyes dimmed, fading into nothing.
Nadine watched the scene unfold, stunned.
She understood Sienna’s n, but in just a few minutes, everything turned upside down.
Tess hadpletely taken control of the situation.
The whole office went still.
Jolie didn’t fight anymore. Her body went limp, hanging in Abel’s grip as he dragged her toward the door, about to disappear from everyone’s sight.
“Enough.”
Sienna finally forced out a word, her voice tight in her throat.
Tess lifted her hand slightly. Abel understood instantly and stopped walking.
Jolie felt the pull on her body vanish. She blinked, dazed and lost, unsure what had just changed.
