Chapter 108: Chapter 108: I’m Waiting for You to Tie Me Up

Before the man could speak, Sienna Everett stopped him. "Don’t say it. If you say it out loud, it won’t come true."

Julian Forrester raised an eyebrow slightly.

Sienna Everett turned on the dining room light. Seeing Julian Forrester about to cut the cake, her eyelid twitched. "Um, maybe we shouldn’t eat this cake. Just stick the candles in and make a wish. Let’s skip eating it."

She had tasted it. It wasn’t very good.

When she’d said earlier that she wouldn’t let him eat it if he laughed again, she was only joking.

But Julian Forrester cut a slice anyway. His slender, fair fingers picked up a small fork, and he took a bite.

Sienna Everett admired his courage. "So? Is it terrible?"

He paused, then swallowed nonchalantly. He looked at her, his expression placid. "The flavor is... unique."

’Unique?’

"...Thanks a lot."

Sienna Everett prepared to take the failed little cake away.

But Julian Forrester held her hand down. "I haven’t finished yet."

Sienna Everett was bewildered. "It’s terrible, and you’re still eating it? Wait, you want to finish it?"

He adopted a tone that suggested it was a rare and welcome opportunity. "This is the first time Sierra has made a cake for me. Of course I have to finish it."

Sienna Everett’s fingers trembled. She blinked, her eyelashes fluttering. "Well, if you end up in the hospital, don’t blame me."

Julian Forrester: "?"

Sienna Everett put the small cake back on the dining table. As she turned, she glimpsed the birthday gift from Keith Sterling that he had set aside.

On the surface, Sienna Everett pretended not to care, but inside, she was dying of curiosity.

When he wasn’t looking, she stealthily crept over and hugged Keith Sterling’s gift. "Oh, my! How did this end up in my arms?"

Julian Forrester couldn’t help but chuckle. "You want to see it that badly?"

Sienna Everett’s hands were already itching to open it.

The man sat languidly in his chair, propping his forehead up with one hand. His tone was indulgent. "Go ahead."

Sienna Everett immediately opened the box.

The next second, she saw what was inside and was dumbfounded.

It was a pile of kinky, miscellaneous items!

Pink handcuffs, cute and sexy cat ears... It was too much to look at!

The most outrageous part was a note that read: Bro, Happy Birthday! Wishing you and sis-in-law eternal SEX-tisfaction!

The ’SEX’ part was even deliberately capitalized and bolded.

Sienna Everett’s mouth twitched, her expression a mixture of cringe and disbelief. No wonder Keith Sterling had said it was a secret when she asked what he’d gotten for Julian Forrester.

"Seen enough? Satisfied?"

Julian Forrester asked leisurely, clearly teasing her on purpose.

Sienna Everett was momentarily speechless. She shot him a look as if he were a big villain, then pulled out a length of bondage rope from the box.

She looked at the rope, then back at Julian Forrester.

The man raised an eyebrow, deliberately drawing out his words in a lazy drawl. "So this is what Sienna is into."

Sienna Everett nearly face-planted at his words. She shot him a fierce glare, then smiled sweetly, trying to scare him. "This is for tying you up."

He imagined it for a moment, then actually nodded. "I wouldn’t be against it."

"..." Sienna Everett’s eyelid twitched. She tossed the rope back on the table like a hot potato. "It’s getting really late. I’m going to wash up and go to bed. Good night."

With that, she left without a backward glance.

Watching her retreating back, the man remained seated, letting out a low chuckle. "Leaving so soon? I was waiting for you to tie me up."

Sienna Everett had already started to leave, but she stopped in her tracks when she heard that. Indignant, she spun around, stomped back to him, grabbed the rope, and tied his hands together in a few deft moves.

’Let’s see if this scares you now!’

At this, Julian Forrester raised an eyebrow almost imperceptibly. After a moment of surprise, a casual smile played on his lips. He didn’t even resist, letting her tie him up.

Sienna Everett looked at the man sitting in the chair with his hands bound and clapped her hands in satisfaction. Just as she was thinking about how to scare him next, Julian Forrester’s phone suddenly rang.

"Could you get that for me, hmm?"

His hands were tied, so it was inconvenient for him.

The man’s phone was in his pants pocket. Sienna Everett glanced down, then quickly looked away. With a serious expression on her little face, she reached over to get his phone.

The moment her hand slipped into his pocket, his body suddenly stiffened. He trembled slightly, then lowered his gaze and abruptly let out a soft laugh.

Sienna Everett was confused. "What are you laughing at?"

The man’s eyes were lazy and smiling as he shook his head slightly.

Sienna Everett found his phone and pulled it out.

The caller ID read: Claire Sterling.

A woman’s name.

Julian Forrester’s hands were tied, so he had Sienna Everett answer the call and put it on speakerphone.

After the call connected, Sienna Everett politely remained silent.

A gentle, beautiful female voice came from the other end:

"Julian, happy birthday. I had originally timed this perfectly with the time difference, but something came up and I was delayed. So my call is a bit late. It’s already past midnight there now, right?"

Julian Forrester’s voice was faint, but his tone was familiar, as if speaking to someone he knew well. "It’s fine."

Hearing his familiar tone, Sienna Everett couldn’t help but glance at him.

The woman on the other end laughed. "Well then, a belated happy birthday to you. Oh, right, I mailed you a birthday gift. It should arrive in the next day or two."

"Okay." After replying, Julian Forrester looked over at Sienna Everett.

Sienna Everett didn’t look at him. She was staring at the small cake she had made, which was still on the table.

The woman on the other end chatted for another moment, then said with a laugh, "Well, I won’t disturb you any longer. I’m hanging up."

Julian Forrester: "Mm."

The call ended quickly.

But after the interruption, Sienna Everett no longer felt like scaring him, nor was she in the mood to play around anymore. She started to untie the rope binding his hands.

Julian Forrester watched her expression. Seeing that she didn’t seem to mind, he let out a nearly inaudible sigh, but still explained, "That’s Keith’s older sister, and also my cousin. She’s abroad right now."

Sienna Everett had a moment of realization. No wonder she also had the surname Sterling.

Sienna Everett was halfway through untying the rope when she tied it back up again.

Julian Forrester: "?"

Sienna Everett blinked and asked with a grin, "Can you untie it yourself?"

He lifted his gaze to glance at her. With a slight twist of his wrists, his well-defined fingers maneuvered a few times, and he easily undid the rope.

Sienna Everett: "..."

’So I basically did that for nothing.’

Having spent the last few days staying up late to prepare Julian Forrester’s birthday gift, she was finally able to get a good, long sleep. Sienna Everett didn’t wake up until late the next morning.

After washing up and going downstairs, she discovered that he had actually finished the entire terrible-tasting cake she had made.

She glanced at the man sitting on the sofa and saw he was wearing the white shirt she had personally designed.

Sienna Everett had only glanced over casually, but when her eyes fell on his figure, her gaze froze. A look of undisguised amazement filled her eyes.

He already had an excellent figure, and while designing the shirt, she had imagined what it would look like on him.

Now, seeing it, the effect was even more stunning than she had imagined.

From his Adam’s apple to his collarbone, the lines were distinct and sexy. The shirt cuffs were rolled up, revealing the faint blue veins on his fair arms. His waistline was lean and strong. Every inch of him exuded a captivating charm.

Sienna Everett couldn’t help but think that if Julian Forrester were her model, she would have started designing menswear long ago.

Since she had nothing to do that afternoon and Julian Forrester’s birthday wasn’t technically over yet, Sienna Everett went out with him for a while.

That evening, they returned to Veridian Gardens. She had only been resting on the sofa for a few minutes when a barrage of messages from Keith Sterling came in:

[Sienna, it’s an emergency! An emergency!]

[Reply as soon as you see this!]

Sienna Everett: "?"
