A Relentless Pursuit for Love

Chapter 34

Seeing Sage about to leave with Freya, Sienna panicked. She pointed at Sage and yelled, “I know now! It must be you! You are the one who set me up!”

“Sienna Zelda,” said Jace seriously. “Don’t accuse someone based on groundless speculations.”

Hearing Jace address her in a formal manner and seeing him implicitly take Sage’s side terrified Sienna. She felt like she was about to lose him for good.

Sienna did not think that she had accused Sage without any evidence,

It was obvious to her that she had been the target of some vicious plot, and it was the reason why her wedding had tumed out the way it did. It had not been long since her return to Nadeem City, and she was unable to recall if she had made any enemies.

The only feud she had was with Sage Luz. Plus, the garish manner in which Sage had arrived only furthered her suspicions that Sage was here to steal Jace.

“Sage Luz, one should be responsible for their own doings. Do you not have the guts to admit them?” Pointing her finger at Sage, Sienna seethed and swore to herself that she would get back at Sage even if Sage was not responsible for the situation that she was in.

If not, she would not be able to marry into the Yuriel family.

Standing behind Freya’s wheelchair, Sage replied indifferently, “You’re right, it’s me. You have a problem with that?”

Stunned, Jace looked to where Sage was standing.

Was it really her doing?

However, it was only yesterday, when she had pretended not to know him. In addition to that, she looked determined not to have anything to do with him anymore. Why the sudden change of attitude?

Sienna was stunned too. She did not expect Sage to easily admit her act.

Sage, on the other hand, did not think that it mattered whether she admitted to the crime or not. Even though it was Luther’s doing, she knew that Luther was only trying to help her. Hence, strictly speaking, she was partly responsible too.

Sienna seized the opportunity and criticized Sage, “How can you be this shameless!”

Sage scoffed, “What about you then? Aren’t you even ashamed that you’re the homewrecker? You’re the one who decided to settle down with a decent person after years of being a playgirl.”

Jace furrowed his brows.

Was Sage referring to Sienna as a playgirl and him as a decent man?

Sienna took a quick glance at Jace. Seeing his dark expression, Sienna started weeping. “Jace, don’t listen to her. How could I be someone like that? Sage is accusing me… … I will sue you!”

“Be my guest. You have the right to sue me. But, from what I’ve gathered, the Zelda family had tons of lawsuits and have millions and millions of debts to clear. I’m not sure if you can afford to hire a lawyer. Do you need me to lend you a few lawyers?”

Sage was clearly unfazed by Sienna’s threats. “Let me know when you want to bring this to court. My legal team would be on standby to welcome the mighty Miss Zelda.”

Sage could no longer be bothered to pay Sienna further attention. She was a pretentious person who was trying to sell that she was innocent. Sage left the rooftop with Freya.

Sienna was fuming with rage. She could not comprehend how a country bumpkin like Sage had the audacity to insult and offend her. She was even shocked by how Sage had the nerve to offer her legal aid.

Did she think that she was from a wealthy family?

Sienna, blinded by rage, did not put much thought into trying to figure out how a “country bumpkin” like Sage would know how to fly a helicopter.

“Jace, did you see how she was? She’s impossible!”

Walking toward Jace, Sienna wanted him to take her side. “I don’t care. I will have my lawyer file a lawsuit against her! I will sue her for invading my privacy, tarnishing my reputation, and messing up my wedding ceremony! I will make sure that she spends the rest of her life in jail!”

With a cold expression on his face, Jace looked at the tear stains on Sienna’s face. He suddenly realized that Sienna was not the weak and frail woman that he knew.

He could forgive her for her pretentiousness and vanity, but he would not be able to forgive Sienna for using his sincerity to lie to him. “Sienna Zelda,” Jace said in a solemn voice, “let’s break up.”
