CHAPTER 138: CHAPTER 138: HANDLE IT YOURSELF

"Didn’t I tell you not to act rashly? Why did you leak information to the reporters?" Vincent Lancaster asked angrily, his face grim.

Sierra Sinclair felt a surge of panic.

Vincent Lancaster knew everything?

Quickly, she steadied herself, putting on an innocent expression, and said softly, "Vincent, I was just trying to help you. I didn’t expect things to turn out this way."

If they had managed to pin everything on Nina Sinclair, they could have remained blameless. Who could have anticipated such an unexpected turn?

"Help me?" Vincent sneered, gritting his teeth, "Do you know how much money I spent to suppress this matter? If it weren’t for your leak, there wouldn’t have been such consequences!"

Vincent blamed everything on Sierra Sinclair.

Hearing Vincent’s accusations, Sierra also grew angry.

Wasn’t she doing this for her reputation? Handling this matter well would benefit Vincent too. Who knew it would turn out like this?

Why was he acting like she had committed some unforgivable crime and blaming her?

Sierra said resentfully, "You’re blaming me now? Instead of going after Nina Sinclair, you come to question me. I wonder if you still have unfinished business with Nina..."

"Shut up! What nonsense are you spouting?"

Vincent was already troubled enough, and Sierra’s words only exacerbated his frustration, causing him to snap angrily.

Sierra looked at Vincent’s impatient face, her eyes showing a mix of grievance and defiance.

Ever since the Sinclair Family showed up at their engagement party, Vincent had treated her well. But now he had changed completely, not only failing to support her but also scolding her!

Just then, Sierra’s phone suddenly rang.

She picked it up and answered, "Hello."

The call was from a reporter. Someone had found Sierra’s phone number and called to inquire about the incident of Vincent hitting someone at the engagement party.

"Miss Sierra Sinclair, was it because you did something to wrong Mr. Vincent Lancaster that he turned against you?"

"No!" Sierra shrieked, angrily hanging up.

However, after hanging up, more calls came in, accompanied by countless text messages bombarding her, all asking about her and Vincent.

Sierra’s face turned grim and ugly. Finally, she turned off her phone, which stopped all the harassment.

Just then, there was a knock at the door, and a hospital nurse came to inform her, "Miss Sinclair, there are many reporters outside..."

Someone had found out which hospital Sierra was staying in and had come looking for her!

Vincent Lancaster had spent substantial money and effort dealing with the reporters, only for the Sinclair Family to reap no benefits, leaving behind a mess.

He sneered and said, "This mess is your doing. You deal with it yourself. After all, with the Sinclair Family’s influence, handling such a small matter should be easy."

Saying that, Vincent turned and left.

Sierra watched his departing silhouette with an expression of disbelief, shocked that Vincent just walked away like that.

Vincent wanted her to deal with this matter herself, but she had no means to do so.

Furthermore, the Sinclair Family wasn’t truly her family; there was no way they would clean up after her.

Looking at the shattered phone on the floor, Sierra’s expression was one of pain, her heart troubled, not knowing what to do next.

Just then, there was a knock at the hospital room door.

Knock, knock.

Sierra turned to look and saw an unexpected person standing at the door.

The man, dressed in a suit, stood quietly at the entrance of the room, a faint smile on his lips, speaking softly, "Miss Sinclair."

It was... someone from the Sinclair Family!
