CHAPTER 270: CHAPTER 270: BUT I JUST LOVE HER

No wonder Sienna Quinn always seemed to have such a hard time back home. Her ex-husband only cared about being with another woman, and her family never treated her as one of their own. How did she manage all these years?

The more Felix Orwell thought about it, the angrier he became inside, and the more sinister his smile grew as he looked at the woman in front of him. The smile on his lips became increasingly devilish.

Watching this made Clara Quinn’s heart race. After hearing what she had said, Felix should understand what kind of person Sienna really is, right? Once Felix gives up on Sienna, Clara will have her chance.

But why hasn’t Felix said a word yet...is he hurt? Now is the perfect moment. Clara leaned closer to Felix, her voice softening as she snuggled more of her body into Felix’s arms, intentionally brushing his arm with the softness of her chest.

The man deliberately raised his well-formed eyebrows, his gaze becoming more teasing.

"Why are you being so nice to me?" Felix, who had remained silent, finally spoke slowly.

Clara chuckled softly, "Isn’t it because I have feelings for you? I really can’t stand to see a good person like you being deceived by her." Clara’s lips curved slowly, her lips parting and closing, a subtle charm.

Felix turned his head to the side, his long eyes forming a graceful arc.

"You like me?"

"Hmm..."

Clara nodded shyly, a faint smile on her face, her cheeks slightly flushed showing her embarrassment. She felt a surge of joy inside. She hadn’t expected Felix to be so easy to win over. She used to think that it might be difficult to win over this man, but it turned out to be effortless. Felix Orwell was not all that; it’s laughable that Clara had even gone out of her way to investigate Felix’s background before coming here. She found out that when Felix was in France, he was a playboy from a wealthy family, always surrounded by a harem of women.

He was known for his lavish spending, with countless women around him.

A man like him, who was used to playing around, couldn’t possibly have Sienna in his heart for real. He just wanted a novelty, didn’t he? How could he truly like Sienna?

Now that Clara had spilled all of Sienna’s doings outside, she couldn’t believe Felix would still be interested in Sienna. No man would like a manipulative, scheming woman.

Especially when Sienna was a divorced woman who even had a child with Landon Lawson.

What other man would want a woman like her?

Clara scoffed, deliberately pressing herself closer to Felix. Only someone like her is worthy of a man as outstanding as Felix.

Felix lightly touched his lips, a thoughtful smile at the corner.

"So that’s how it is..."

"Yes, I really like you, so I spoke out the truth because I don’t want to see you deceived by my cousin. It’s unfair to you because you’re truly a great guy." Clara’s lips curled upwards, feeling fully confident about Felix. She just needed to give that final push.

"But what do you suggest I do?"

"Hmm?"

Clara was bewildered. What was Felix saying?

"I just like Sienna. Even if I know she’s using me, I’m willing, and I’m even happy to have value for her to use. I guess that’s being masochistic, but why do I like her so much? Even I don’t know. Is it because of her excellence? Her independence? Even if Chloe is Landon Lawson’s son, so what? I would still love him. As long as Sienna wants to be with me, I don’t mind any of her past." Felix spoke more passionately, partly to anger Clara and partly out of genuine emotion.

Even Felix wasn’t certain why he liked Sienna so much. Sienna obviously had no interest in him, and he never lacked women. But emotions are strange things. The more he thought about it, the more he found Sienna to be exceptional. Even his picky and demanding father at home had nothing but praise for Sienna.

Clara’s pupils gradually dilated...what was going on? Just a moment ago, Felix didn’t have such feelings for Sienna, so why did it suddenly change? And she was still leaning on Felix!

Felix’s gaze fell gradually on the arms wrapped around him, a heavy mockery at the corners of his mouth: "As far as I’m concerned, Sienna is wonderful in every way. We’ve known each other for years. Do I need you to tell me what kind of person she is? The Quinn family really has no shame. They treated her harshly five years ago, and now it’s the same. As her cousin, how could you spread such slanderous talk about Sienna? Don’t you find yourself petty?"

Felix pulled back his arm, looking up and down at Clara with palpable disgust in his eyes, "Actually, I forgot to tell you one thing, if you want to seduce me, remember to check my profile thoroughly. Do you really think that with just your face, you could enter my circles? Do you overestimate yourself, or underestimate me? The women who surround me are all better than you."

Felix suddenly stood up. There were more important things to do now, and he had already spent too much time here with Clara. His indifferent gaze made Clara shiver, his cold eyes filling her with dread. Why was Felix’s reaction so extreme when she had done nothing? Was it all because of Sienna?

"Felix..." The woman reached out trying to grab Felix’s arm, but her hand caught only air. The man turned back sharply, his eerie eyes glinting with strange light, a gaze that made her too scared to move.

"Is that a name for you to call? Don’t you know your own status?"

Clara bit her lip tightly. Right after confessing her feelings, Felix spoke to her so hurtfully, and her face was extremely upset. Felix’s mouth carried a mocking smile as he slowly began to speak.

Felix did it on purpose. He deliberately lured her into confessing so he could publicly humiliate her. There were already many people around here; it wasn’t a deserted spot. Where Felix appeared, there was never a shortage of people.

Clara was after all a Quinn family miss. When the two had just appeared here, the place instantly erupted with whispers, but out of respect for Felix’s status, no one dared to interfere with the pair’s meeting. But just hearing Felix’s revelation that Clara spoke ill of Sienna?

On top of that, Felix’s confession and ridicule were truly satisfying. Those watching silently cheered.

The gossip continued to rise around her.
