Chapter 129: Chapter 129: Mason Everett Is Driven Mad

Sienna Everett’s beautiful eyes were smiling as she reached out to support Roger Shields, who had difficulty walking. "Mr. Shields, I heard your wife is very fond of that G.Y. gown called ’Chinese rose’?"

A bit stunned, Roger Shields nodded. "Yes, my wife loves it, but the gown is for display only, not for sale. It’s been an unobtainable wish of hers."

Mason Everett watched Sienna Everett’s actions with displeasure and sneered coldly, "Sienna Everett, what do you think you’re doing?"

’Even now, Sienna still wants to oppose me?’

’Trying to stop The Everett Group from signing Roger Shields?’

’As if she could stop me!’

The corners of Sienna Everett’s cherry-red lips curled up slightly, making her already stunningly exquisite features appear even more radiant and captivating.

She gave Mason Everett a dismissive glance before turning to Roger Shields with a serious expression, her words clear and deliberate:

"Mr. Shields, General Manager Keith Sterling of Sovereign Entertainment said he would like to gift that ’Chinese rose’ gown to you, free of charge! He hopes it can fulfill your wife’s wish!"

For a moment, Roger Shields couldn’t believe what he was hearing. His old but sharp eyes widened slightly. "Are... are you telling the truth?"

Sienna Everett gave a reassuring little laugh. "Of course."

With that, she gestured for Evan Shelby and Keith Sterling to come over.

Evan Shelby’s blue eyes held a faint smile. "Mr. Shields, our G.Y. ’Chinese rose’ gown will be gifted to you by Mr. Keith Sterling, free of charge."

It took Roger Shields a good while to recognize that the handsome, mixed-race man with sharp features standing before him was Evan Shelby, the founder of G.Y.

If the owner of G.Y. himself was saying this, then it must be true!

Roger Shields was so excited his hands began to tremble.

His wife could finally wear the original gown she had longed for!

Roger Shields looked apologetically at Mason Everett, the lines on his face etched with age. "Mr. Everett, I’m very sorry, but my wife still prefers the original gown..."

Mason Everett’s face turned green in an instant, his expression utterly foul. "Mr. Shields, are you planning to break our agreement?"

Roger Shields sighed, looking troubled. "Sovereign Entertainment approached me first, and I had already agreed to sign with them. You were the one who used my wife’s situation to make me change my mind. Now that General Manager Keith Sterling of Sovereign Entertainment can procure the original gown for my wife, I can only sign with Sovereign to repay his kindness. I am truly sorry."

As he spoke, Roger Shields turned to Keith Sterling with a sincere expression. "General Manager Sterling, there’s no need to gift the gown for free. I don’t want to take advantage of anyone. I can purchase it at its original price!"

Keith Sterling was still reeling from Sienna Everett’s power move of gifting the gown, feeling so moved he could have cried!

’It feels so good to be protected by my sister-in-law!’

Just as he snapped out of it, he heard Roger Shields offer to buy it, leaving Keith Sterling momentarily at a loss for words.

Sienna Everett gave Evan Shelby a slight nod.

Evan Shelby immediately spoke up to explain, "Mr. Shields, there is no need to purchase it. The ’Chinese rose’ is a gift for your wife. Kian himself feels the same way."

"For a G.Y. creation to be cherished so deeply for so long already transcends its monetary price. It has gained a far greater value."

"The ’Chinese rose’ is currently in the collection at G.Y. Headquarters. I will arrange to have it airlifted here as soon as possible!"

The gown’s name, Chinese rose, symbolized beauty at the end of the road. It unintentionally suited Mrs. Shields’s current situation...

Roger Shields raised a hand to wipe the corner of his eye. Tears glistened as his voice choked up. "Thank you... thank you all so much..."

Mason Everett didn’t even have time to react. He could only watch as the prize he’d had in his grasp slipped away, and an uncontrollable fire of rage ignited in his heart.

’Sienna Everett said she’d gift the gown for free, and Evan Shelby actually agreed?’

’Without even asking for Kian’s opinion?’

’What kind of spell has this Sienna Everett put Evan Shelby under?’

A vein throbbed on Mason Everett’s forehead, his eyes filled with fury. The first step in Everett Entertainment’s comeback had been ruined by Sienna Everett just like that. How could he not be furious?!

Meanwhile, Keith Sterling decided to strike while the iron was hot. He immediately led Roger Shields to Sovereign Entertainment to get the contract signed, just in case Mason Everett tried to pull some dirty tricks to sabotage them again.

Before leaving, Sienna Everett glanced at Mason Everett, a light taunt dancing in her exquisite eyes. "Are you still so sure you can sign Roger Shields?"

Hearing this, Mason Everett burned with rage.

’That bastard! How dare she mock me, her older brother, so openly!’

’Does she have any respect for me at all?!’

This time, Mason Everett finally understood completely. Sienna Everett... was deliberately targeting him...

But... didn’t Sienna Everett used to respect him, her older brother, the most?

「The Everett Family Home, Living Room.」

Sheila Whitaker was sitting on the sofa drinking tea. When she saw Mason Everett and Shannon Everett return home looking dejected, she couldn’t help but ask with concern, "What’s wrong? Is there another problem at the company?"

Mason Everett’s face was grim, and he said nothing.

Shannon Everett, with tears welling in her eyes, threw herself into Sheila Whitaker’s arms and whined, "Mom, today my brother and I... today..."

Sheila Whitaker instantly grew tense. "Shannon, hurry and tell me. Does this have something to do with that damn girl, Sienna Everett, again?"

Shannon Everett then recounted what had just happened.

After listening, Sheila Whitaker’s delicate eyebrows furrowed tightly.

Shannon was being cursed out by netizens for splashing water on Sienna Everett’s design draft, and now Mason’s attempt to sign Roger Shields had been ruined.

Both of her children had been plunged into adversity because of Sienna Everett.

Sheila Whitaker shot to her feet, her voice choked with emotion. "That damn girl, how long is she going to keep harming our family! Look at the state she’s put us in!"

Shannon Everett stood up as well. "Mom..."

Sheila Whitaker took a deep breath, suddenly making a decision. "I’m going to find that girl and have a good talk with her. No matter what, we’re still her family. Even if we’ve done things wrong in the past, can’t she be magnanimous and forgive her own family?"

Mason Everett’s expression was grave. "Mom..."

But Sheila Whitaker had made up her mind. "Mason, don’t try to talk me out of it. There are some things I must discuss with her properly. Mason, tell me, where is that damn girl now?"

Mason Everett didn’t know where Sienna Everett was living after leaving the Everett family home.

However, just now, Keith Sterling had taken Roger Shields to Sovereign Entertainment to sign the contract, and Sienna Everett had gone with them.

Mason Everett thought for a moment, then speculated, "She should be at Sovereign Entertainment right now."

Sheila Whitaker smoothed her hair and picked up her handbag. "I’m going to find her now."

There were some things she needed to have a good talk about with Sienna Everett.

...

「Sovereign Entertainment Building.」

Sheila Whitaker entered the first-floor lobby but was told by the receptionist that outside visitors could not enter without an appointment.

Sheila Whitaker frowned impatiently. She reached for her phone to call Sienna Everett, but remembered in the next second that Sienna had blocked her number.

She had no choice but to ask the receptionist to call Sienna Everett’s agent, Stella Shaw.

「Stella Shaw’s Office.」

Stella Shaw took the call from the front desk. After hearing the situation, she looked over at Sienna Everett, who was sitting on the sofa.

"Sienna, the front desk just called. They said a woman named Sheila Whitaker wants to see you and is waiting in the lobby. Isn’t Sheila Whitaker... Sienna, do you want to see her?"
