Chapter 584
Not hearing a response from Sienna for a long time, the subordinate cautiously glanced up.
Seeing her exuding an aura of calm, calculated control, he couldn’t help but probe carefully.
“Ms. Sloan, then… should we just comply with Mrs. Sterling’s wishes and return the trust management rights to her p>
Sienna raised her eyes, a layer of deep amusement instantly washing over them. “No p>
The subordinate stiffened, completely bewildered and unable to comprehend her reasoning.
The conflict had already spiraled into a massive public scandal.
Helena was clearly willing to burn it all down, and the threat of a PR nightmare hung heavily over their heads.
Both the hospital and Sienna personally were under intense pressure.
Everyone was watching this feud, waiting for her to simply hand over the power and end the chaos.
Refusing at this exact moment meant deliberately taking on the brunt of the disaster.
Helena would definitely come back to cause trouble, and it would be explosive. The fallout just wasn’t worth it.
The subordinate simply couldn’t understand why Sienna, at the very moment she should be stepping away and letting things take their course, was choosing to dig her heels in.
He had no idea what she was plotting.
Before he could try to advise her otherwise, Sienna waved him off.
“Contact Silas Draken. Have him run a background check on this firm and report back to me. You’re dismissed p>
The subordinate nodded immediately. “Understood, Ms. Sloan p>
Less than ten minutes after he walked out, Helena’s phone call came through.
Sienna glanced at the caller ID and answered with perfect composure.
“Sienna Sloan! Do you have a death wish? You clearly agreed to follow the protocol! I waited all afternoon just for you to tell me no p>
Helena was grinding her teeth, her voice dripping with sharp, piercing venom.
Sienna’s tone remained soft and unbothered. “Mrs. Sterling, the trust was, after all, established under the patriarch’s rules.
It involves the equity of the entire family. I simply do not dare make a unilateral decision to transfer it.
If you are absolutely determined to take back the management rights, why don’t you go home and discuss it with the matriarch and Jarred?
As long as you all reach a consensus, I will unconditionally sign the handover documents p>
Sienna knew Helena’s weak spots far too well.
She was dead certain that Helena wouldn’t dare breathe a word of this to the family.
The matriarch was already utterly furious over the sapphire necklace being scammed.
Jarred had spent the last few days frantically cleaning up the messes Helena had made.
If they found out she was trying to mess with the family trust. established by the patriarch-all because she was chasing fast cash: based on an outsider’s advice-they would be livid.
They would stop her immediately.
From start to finish, Helena only wanted to act first and apologize later.
Seeing right through her, Sienna intentionally added a helpful suggestion.
“If you find it difficult, that’s perfectly fine. I can make the calls for you and personally explain the situation to the matriarch and Jarred
The other end of the line erupted instantly, Helena’s voice twisting with sheer malice.
“Don’t you dare! Sienna, keep your nose out of my business! I make my own decisions, and it’s not your place to interfere.
You are not to disturb anyone in the Sterling family, and you are absolutely forbidden from telling Jarred p>
The deafening roar coming through the receiver didn’t even make Sienna blink.
She let out a soft laugh, her voice laced with feigned helplessness. “If that’s the case, then my hands are tied p>
With that, she hung up the phone.
Helena immediately called back, blasting her with an endless barrage of frantic calls.
Her patience depleted, Sienna directly blocked the number.
Helena’s rage was thoroughly ignited.
She was backed into a corner. If she couldn’t get the trust management rights back, she wouldn’t have the principal to invest and flip her fortune.
If she couldn’t fill the multi-billion-dollar hole, she couldn’t buy back the necklace.
What awaited her wasn’t just the matriarch’s punishment, but the total annihilation of her reputation as the Capital’s premier socialite!
“That vicious bitch! She’s practically begging for death p>
Helena let out a low roar, screaming at the men outside her door, “Get the car ready! We are going to Capital Hospital p>
