Chapter 45

• Sienna's hands trembled as she balanced the tray, her heart heavy with memories she didn’t want to revisit. She kept her expression neutral, focused on the task at hand as she approached the table. One by one, she placed the dishes in front of Kaemon and the elegant woman sitting across from him. She could feel his gaze burning into her, but she refused to meet his eyes. Her heart clenched, the urge to cry rising in her throat, but she swallowed it down, holding herself together.
• It felt like a twisted game, like Kaemon had come here deliberately to flaunt this new woman in front of her. The woman was stunning—polished and graceful, everything that screamed old money and privilege. But if Kaemon thought Sienna was going to roll over and take it just because her life was in a mess, he was sorely mistaken.
• Sienna straightened her spine, forcing a sugary smile onto her lips as she placed Kaemon's dish in front of him. “Enjoy,” she said sweetly, a hint of sharpness in her tone. She could play this game too. She had nothing left to lose.
