CHAPTER 30: CHAPTER 30: THE FILM QUEEN’S ACTING SKILLS ARE TRULY IMPRESSIVE

The familiar voice reached her ears, and Sienna Quinn swiftly turned her head, looking at the woman standing behind her, her eyebrows subtly furrowing.

The look in her eyes made Sienna feel uneasy all over. Did she hear the contents of the phone call just now?

Thinking of this, the previously unperturbed Sienna finally changed her expression. She absolutely couldn’t let anyone know about Chloe’s existence. This woman was ruthless and cunning, having exploited her kindness back then, leading to a tragic death on the operating table. If it weren’t for that, she wouldn’t have recognized this woman’s true nature either.

She would go to any lengths to achieve her goal, and Sienna couldn’t guarantee that this woman wouldn’t harm Chloe.

"Actress Vance, you really should mind your own business rather than mine."

"Sienna, it’s been years. Don’t you want to catch up? After all, we were really good friends years ago."

"Friends?" How ironic those two words are. Sienna laughed sarcastically. What is a friend? Is it the woman who took her two kidneys, the one who schemed against her, or the one who’s always wanted to steal her husband?

If that’s what a friend is, then it’s better not to have any.

"In my life’s dictionary, Miss Vance seems not to qualify as a friend."

About to turn and leave, she saw a figure walk in from outside.

Sienna frowned slightly. Truly, fate’s trickery—she came out and still ran into Vera Yates, yet her steps didn’t stop. Now wasn’t the time for a direct confrontation with her.

Some karmic retribution doesn’t arrive late.

As Vera Yates walked in, she saw a silhouette, and the resentment on her face vanished instantly, replaced by her signature sweet smile.

After all, she’s the hottest actress right now, recognized everywhere she goes, always needing to maintain her public image.

Yet the expected amazement didn’t erupt.

Vera Yates frowned slightly, then directed her gaze at the woman before her.

Her enchanting, long eyes suddenly contracted, having overheard snippets of the call earlier—about a child named Chloe, and the inquiry about this child’s situation with a kindergarten teacher.

How could a newly returned woman suddenly have a child?

Before Sienna went abroad, Vera was the most familiar with her. The Quinn Family didn’t have any children enrolled in kindergarten.

Sienna glanced slightly at Vera Yates, expressionlessly brushing past her.

This feeling of being ignored stung Vera’s nerves. When was she not the center of attention?

"Sienna, it’s been years. Don’t you have anything you want to talk about?"

Stopping at the restroom entrance, Sienna turned around, looking at Vera Yates behind her.

With an arrogant demeanor, she tilted her chin upwards, eyes slightly squinted with undisguised pride.

"Are we supposed to be close?"

Sienna smiled courteously.

The feeling of being rebuffed made Vera’s brows furrow even more.

Displeasure flickered in her eyes briefly, then she replaced it with a fake smile.

"No matter what, we’ve known each other for so many years. Saying we aren’t close is quite hurtful."

Watching the woman feign sadness, Sienna coldly snorted.

Before reincarnation, such pretense deceived her into giving up two kidneys. After reincarnation, the guise remained, but now Sienna was no longer the foolish girl willing to donate organs.

"Actress Vance, your acting is truly pervasive in your life. Must you perform every moment? Isn’t it exhausting?"

Vera Yates knitted her brows. This Sienna, disappearing five years ago, now returned with a changed personality.

How could Sienna speak to her like this before? Was it because of Stephen Grant?

Vera’s heart lurched; she would never allow this bitch to have anything to do with Stephen.

"Is it because I’m with Stephen? I’m sorry, but we two are truly in love."

"I had nothing to do with him five years ago. Whatever goes on between you now, what’s it got to do with me?"

Truly in love? Ridiculous.

If they were truly in love, what did her feelings count for? Trampled maliciously by them.

"Since that’s the case... I hope you can bless me and Stephen."

Vera lowered her head with rosy cheeks, heart full of cold laughter. This Sienna was still as stupid as before, showing no improvement.

"Bless you? Are you two even worthy?"

Sienna chuckled lightly, encountering a person who could be so shameless. Today was truly an eye-opener, and she turned to leave.

Watching the woman’s departing figure, after repeated taunts and disregard, the resentment in the room erupted at this moment.

"Sienna, I haven’t finished speaking with you!"

Vera chased out, grabbing Sienna’s shoulder. The latter frowned slightly, turning her head with some displeasure.

Her gaze landed on the woman’s hand on her shoulder, eyebrows subtly furrowing.

Smack!

A crisp sound.

Sienna slapped the woman’s hand away from her shoulder.

What happened next left Sienna somewhat stunned.

"Sienna, I was merely concerned about you. Did you really have to treat me this way?"

The woman sat on the ground, teary-eyed, looking pitifully at her.

Sienna suddenly found it amusing, tilting her head, watching Actress Vance perform.

It was just such a pitiful display before that tricked her into willingly giving up the first kidney.

However, in this life, Sienna was no longer a naive little rabbit, nor would she fall for it twice.

"She deserves to be the actress—turning her face so swiftly."

"What are you saying? Sienna, what’s wrong with you?"

Vera Yates gazed at her with blurred, tearful eyes, sadness and disbelief slowly filling them.

Sienna furrowed her brows, was Vera Yates performing for her? For what? Simply because she brushed her hand off her shoulder, only to sit on the ground as if she had been bullied?

"Sienna! What are you doing?"

A deep voice came from behind.

Sienna furrowed her brows, looking at Landon Lawson walking over from behind, then at Vera Yates, still sitting on the ground wiping her tears, a smile suddenly appeared on her lips.

So that was the purpose of her actions, setting a stage.

Landon Lawson strode forward, pushing Sienna aside.

She staggered, tumbling towards the wall.

Sienna steadied herself against the wall, a sharp pain radiating from her arm.
