Chapter 87: She’s My Wife, Do You Have a Problem?

Chapter 87: Chapter 87: She’s My Wife, Do You Have a Problem?

Sienna Everett felt her heart tighten under the man’s gaze, a faint blush creeping onto her earlobes.

She bit her crimson lip, walked back to him, and poked his cheek, trying to make him look forward and listen to Samuel Sutton’s call instead of staring at her.

As she pulled her hand back, he suddenly grabbed her fingers.

He held her slender, soft, pale fingertips and, unable to resist, brought them to his lips for a gentle bite.

Sienna Everett’s back stiffened, and a tingling, ticklish sensation spread through her entire body.

After the bite, Julian Forrester lifted his gaze to look at her.

He had long eyelashes, and looking up at her from below made his already handsome face utterly captivating, like some lazy, seductive demon.

Sienna’s eyelashes fluttered. She frantically snatched her hand back like a bristling kitten, shaking her fist at him in warning.

’How could you... I’m going to continue not speaking to you!’

A low chuckle escaped Julian Forrester’s lips, his chest vibrating slightly as a twinkle of amusement lit up his eyes.

On the other end of the line, Samuel Sutton was baffled.

’I’m reporting on serious business, so why did Mr. Forrester suddenly laugh?’

’Was there a problem with my report? Did I actually amuse Mr. Forrester?’

Sienna Everett glanced at the fingertips he had just bitten. Her heart clenched, and she shyly walked away to continue admiring the flowers nearby.

The flowers in the hall were beautiful, their faint fragrance wafting through the air.

Sienna strolled and looked, eventually wandering to a nearby window where she spotted a pot of beautiful hyacinths.

As she was admiring them, a man stopped beside her.

Sienna Everett looked up and saw a portly, unattractive man.

"Hello, beautiful. My name is Zane Cole."

Zane Cole’s lecherous eyes roamed up and down Sienna Everett’s body. ’Beautiful, she’s absolutely beautiful.’

The woman before him had crimson lips and fair skin. Her figure was slender, and her skin was so white it seemed to glow. Though her clothes weren’t revealing in the slightest, she was utterly captivating.

Zane Cole had been asked by Shannon Everett to come in and see who the man with Sienna Everett was.

But after coming in, he only saw Sienna admiring flowers, with no man by her side.

Zane Cole gave a sleazy grin, his eyes narrowing into slits. "Hey beautiful, are you here all alone? How lonely that must be!"

Sienna’s expression was cold and impassive. "Whether I’m alone or not has nothing to do with you."

Zane Cole took a step forward, about to say more.

Two nearby attendants quickly approached and warned him sternly, "Mr. Cole, this is Miss Everett. She is our distinguished guest."

The implication was clear: She was not someone he could afford to offend.

Hearing this, Zane Cole’s face fell, but then he grinned. "Distinguished? How distinguished can she be? More distinguished than me?!"

It wasn’t like he didn’t know who Sienna Everett was—just the unfavored true daughter of the Everett Family.

Zane Cole was already a womanizer, and now, emboldened by lust, he reached out a lecherous hand to touch Sienna Everett’s.

A sharp glint flashed in Sienna’s eyes.

There was a loud THUD!

Sienna Everett lifted her right leg and kicked Zane Cole squarely!

With just one kick, he was sent sprawling to the ground, the fat on his stomach quivering.

Zane Cole howled in pain. His face changed as he scrambled up, enraged, pointing at Sienna Everett with a brutish expression as he cursed,

"Sienna Everett, you dare kick me! Do you know who I am?! With a lift of my finger, I can make sure you never make it in this city again! How dare you kick me! Who do you think you are?!"

Before Sienna could speak, a voice as sharp and bone-chilling as if steeped in ancient ice came from behind her—

"She’s my wife. You have a problem with that?"

When Zane Cole heard the voice, he immediately looked up.

In the next second, he froze, dumbfounded, as if struck by lightning.

Julian Forrester strode over on his long legs. His cool, handsome face was devoid of expression, yet he exuded a dark, ruthless, and oppressive aura.

The glance he shot at Zane Cole was especially terrifying. The ice in his eyes was overwhelming, as if carrying the crushing pressure of the arctic.

Zane Cole’s legs went weak, and he nearly collapsed to his knees in fear.

’J-Julian Forrester!’

’What is *he* doing here?’

’Wait!’

’Did he just say Sienna Everett is his wife?’

Zane Cole was instantly dumbstruck. Sienna Everett was Julian Forrester’s woman!

’No, not just his woman... his wife...’

’Could it be that Julian Forrester and Sienna Everett... are already married?!!’

In that brief second, countless thoughts flashed through Zane Cole’s mind, all leading to one terrifying conclusion: he had just... hit on Julian Forrester’s wife...

’It’s over...’

’If Julian Forrester decides to stand up for Sienna Everett, the entire Cole Family won’t be able to protect me!’

No wonder those two attendants said Sienna Everett was someone he couldn’t afford to provoke.

Zane Cole swallowed in terror, trembling uncontrollably. His only hope now was that Julian Forrester wasn’t actually that fond of Sienna Everett.

However, in the next second, Zane Cole watched in despair.

The same Julian Forrester who had been so frigid and intimidating just a moment ago now looked at Sienna, and the ice in his expression instantly melted away, replaced by a deep and lingering affection.

He even reached out to straighten Sienna’s clothes, his movements so practiced and natural it was as if he had done it a thousand times before.

But Sienna’s attitude toward Julian Forrester was haughty and dismissive.

Yet, the man himself didn’t get angry. He simply indulged her little tantrum with a helpless, doting look.

’This is clearly... a man who spoils Sienna Everett to the core.’

Zane Cole closed his eyes in despair, feeling as if he had been plunged into an icy cellar.

Of all the people to harass, he had to pick Julian Forrester’s woman. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ

This was it. If Julian Forrester decided to avenge Sienna Everett, he probably wouldn’t be able to stay in Aethelburg any longer.

Even the entire Cole Family could be wiped out.

As if to confirm his fears, Julian Forrester glanced at the two attendants and uttered a cold command, "Throw him out."

The two attendants immediately stepped forward, grabbed the limp Zane Cole, and began dragging him out.

Sienna shot a look at Julian Forrester. Even though he had stood up for her, she remembered him biting her finger, so she let out a huff and walked away in a bad mood.

Then, Zane Cole watched as the man who was normally immeasurably powerful and deeply respected—Master Forrester—shook his head helplessly and chased after the young woman with a doting expression, calling out, "Sienna..."

Zane Cole’s eyes had been well and truly opened.

Shannon Everett was waiting outside, burning with impatience.

She was determined to see which man was keeping Sienna Everett as his sugar baby.

Then she would go back and tell Wyatt Everett and see if he would still be so protective of Sienna Everett.

After waiting and waiting, what she finally saw was Zane Cole being held by two attendants, one on each side, and unceremoniously thrown out.

Shannon Everett was stunned and hurried over. "Mr. Cole, what happened to you...?"

Before she could finish, Zane Cole scrambled up from the ground and—SLAP!—he struck Shannon Everett across the face. "Bitch! This is all your fault!"

Shannon Everett clutched her stinging face and shouted angrily, "Zane Cole!"

’That fat-headed pig, how dare he hit me.’

Shannon Everett had always held herself in high regard, and her chest heaved with rage. But thinking of Sienna Everett inside, she had to suppress her anger and ask, "Mr. Cole, did you see who Sienna Everett was with?"
