Chapter 81 Return to Lloyd Mansion
- Sienna had carefully rehearsed how she would respond once Zishan offered his comfort. But to her surprise, not only did he remain silent after she spoke, but he also abruptly hung up the phone without saying a word.
- Sitting on the hospital bed, she stared blankly at the now-dark screen of her phone. The energy seemed to drain from her body, leaving her slumped and dejected. Her eyes were brimming with tears, a far cry from the poised and untouchable heiress of the Turner Family that she used to be.
- The emotional turmoil of Zishan's cold indifference had left her feeling utterly defeated. Whether it was his blatant disregard that enraged her or the overwhelming sense of injustice that crushed her, she remained in the same despondent posture for hours. Even when a young nurse entered her room the next morning to administer an injection and change her medication, she didn't so much as flinch.
