CHAPTER 387: CHAPTER 387: AFRAID TO OPEN THE DOOR

After the two hung up the phone, Felix Orwell looked at Sienna Quinn with a somewhat peculiar expression and lightly raised his eyebrows as he said, "I didn’t expect my Sienna to still be so popular; you’ve barely been back in the country a few days and someone already wants to take you out to dinner."

Sienna rolled her eyes at Felix and said fiercely, "You’re always so improper, do you think everyone is like you?"

"How am I improper?" Felix lightly raised his eyebrows, a bit unconvinced as he spoke.

Sienna gave Felix a scrutinizing look up and down, saying, "Look at yourself, where do you see even a hint of propriety?"

"Oh? Then how would I qualify as proper?"

"In any case, the words ’proper’ just can’t be seen on you." Sienna said seriously.

Being spoken to like that, Felix lightly furrowed his eyebrows, a playful smile suddenly appearing at the corners of his mouth, "How about I try being proper with you?"

"You?"

Sienna’s tone was obviously doubtful.

Felix suddenly leaned forward, closing the distance between them. The strong masculine aura emanating from him faintly enveloped Sienna...

Sienna, a little embarrassed, pulled back to put some distance between them, her face reddening as she looked at the man so close to her.

Felix gathered his usual playful smile and looked seriously and properly at Sienna, "I like you."

Thud!

Sienna’s heart skipped a beat, startled and not daring to look Felix in the eyes.

"Stop joking around." Sienna said, her expression somewhat awkward. She couldn’t quite accept Felix’s confession; she had always thought of him as a friend and never considered developing a romantic relationship with him...

"Haha, the way I act when I’m serious, isn’t it handsome?" Felix gently laughed, using this joke to dispel the awkwardness between them.

Hearing Felix say this, Sienna finally breathed a sigh of relief. It was fortunate that Felix hadn’t outright confessed to her; she wouldn’t have been able to accept it at this moment.

"You always have that playful smile, when are you going to grow up?" Sienna rolled her eyes at Felix.

Felix shrugged indifferently and said, "Maybe I’ll be more serious after I get married."

Actually, it’s only in front of the woman he likes that a man shows a childlike side. However, Sienna has never seen his true intentions.

Since she can’t see them, it’s better to pretend he doesn’t have them. Perhaps the two of them are only suited to be friends for life.

Moreover, especially for Felix, seeing what Landon Lawson has done for Sienna, he felt at ease leaving Sienna with Landon...

Perhaps those two are the real couple, and his five years with Sienna were just a minor Chapter in their lives.

Felix drove the car, and after this brief conversation, the two of them fell silent.

Vera Yates sat in her room, her brow furrowed, not having seen Landon Lawson for a long time...

Vera put on her jacket and headed straight outside, her assistant following closely, cautiously saying to Vera, "Miss Vance...weren’t you told not to wander around during this time?"

"Do I need to report to you about everything I do?" Vera smiled warmly, but her sinister eyes made the assistant shiver, and she instantly fell silent.

In the assistant’s heart, there was always fear for Vera, knowing that this woman had no scruples when she was ruthless, devoid of morality...

As Vera just opened her bedroom door, she suddenly saw a package at the entrance. She slightly furrowed her brow and said to the assistant behind her, "When did this package arrive?"

"I don’t know, maybe it was just delivered today. I haven’t gotten around to picking it up," the assistant said, somewhat puzzled as they looked at the package in Vera’s hands.

Vera looked at the writing on the package.

[A gift for Actress Vance.]

Vera smiled with perfect satisfaction at the sender’s gift, pleased to know she still had fans.

Proudly, she said to the assistant behind her, "Even though I’m not acting anymore and haven’t been in the public eye for a while, people still like me."

The assistant nodded quietly, thinking, "It’s only because those people haven’t seen your true nature. If they knew what kind of a corrupt person you are, would they still like you?"

Yet Vera was unaware of her assistant’s thoughts and was still lost in the joy of unwrapping the package.

"I wonder what kind of gift the fan sent me."

Vera cheerfully opened the package, clearly in a good mood.

The assistant couldn’t help but be somewhat curious and watched Vera unwrap the gift.

"Ah—" A scream came from Vera’s lips, and the assistant, trembling, looked at the gift in disbelief, frozen.

In shock, Vera threw the gift to the ground, where a box filled with letters written in blood stared back...

Both Vera and the assistant trembled endlessly in fear.

"What...what is this?" Vera stammered, clearly not expecting this outcome.

"It looks like a blood letter..." the assistant said, also looking on in horror.

Vera had been in the industry for years and had never received a threatening gift like this before. Although her thoughts had previously been malicious, she had always presented a genial and graceful exterior, maintaining an excellent public reputation, so such a threatening gift had never occurred before.

The assistant and Vera were at a loss, shaken with fear.

After all, they were just girls, and receiving such scary gifts naturally terrified them...

Vera curled up her body, took out her phone, and called Stephen, "Stephen, please come over." Vera’s voice carried a hint of choking. For once, her fear wasn’t feigned—it was genuine.

"What happened? What’s going on over there?" Landon’s deep voice came through slowly.

Vera replied tearfully, "I think I’m being threatened."

As soon as Landon heard this, his eyes immediately narrowed. Could it be that mysterious person?

Landon immediately thought of the man lurking in the shadows, wondering if he’s now threatening Vera as well.

Without hesitation, Landon hung up and drove to Vera’s place.

Knock, knock, knock!

A series of urgent knocks at the door made Vera and the assistant tremble violently.

Both of them froze in place, too scared to move. Vera glared at the assistant, annoyed, "What are you doing standing here? Go open the door."

"I...I’m too scared," the assistant stammered, trembling uncontrollably with fear.
