Chapter 201
Sienna frowned, a flicker of unease crossing her face. “Send the coordinates to our people over there. Have them reach out and search for her. With Lana’s skills, it’s unlikely anything would happen to her.”
“Yes,” Reno nodded.
Reno knew she couldn’t really say she wasn’t worried. This trip was full of danger, and Lana’s every move put her at risk. If anything went wrong, she could easily become a weakness for Miss Enna. All Reno could do was hope Lana would return safely.
In Bayer Residence.
“Sienna, this is coconut sticky rice cake made by our chef. Try some,” Calvin said with a smile.
Sienna, took a bite. The cake was delicious, light, refreshing, and perfectly balanced in sweetness. She liked it.
“It’s really good,” she said.
“If you like it, have a few more pieces. It was your mother’s favorite dessert,” Josef added.
Sienna’s hand stilled for a moment as she met Calvin’s guilty gaze. Every time Selina was mentioned, a heavy sense of guilt seemed to hang over the Bayer family, making it hard to even breathe.
Realizing he’d said too much, Calvin forced a smile and quickly changed the subject. “I heard your father hasn’t been feeling well lately. Is he at the nursing home?”
Sienna nodded, picking up another piece of cake and letting it melt in her mouth.
“Yeah, he’ll probably be able to come home soon.”
Thinking about Aiden being in the psychiatric hospital always made her think of someone else.
After a moment of hesitation, she said, “Uncle, I want to visit my second uncle.”
Calvin hadn’t expected her to bring up Jacob. He smiled, a hint of relief in his eyes. “You can, but his mental state isn’t very good.”
Calvin wanted to prepare her for what she might see. In his heart, he didn’t believe his brother was truly ill. He had simply closed himself off, refusing to face reality, and especially unwilling to accept that Selina had taken her own life because of him.
Even after eleven years, that pain was still a thom in their hearts, impossible to remove,
It’s okay, Uncle. I’ll keep that in mind. The main reason I came today was to talk about the 25 serum. Here are your medical records, along with diagnoses from the country’s top doctors. The 25 serum is suitable for your current condition, and it won’t affect your surgery at all,” Sienna sap
The documents were laid out in front of Calvin. He picked them up and read through them. With every word he read, anxiety and panic crashed over him like relentless waves, his forehead beading with sweat.
The doctor’s diagnosis stated that his leg hadn’t been necrotic to begin with, and there was a 30% chance of recovery if he took the medication.
Conflict flickered in Calvin’s eyes as he met Sienna’s gaze. “But my personal doctor, Leo, told me my body isn’t suitable for it. He took it to analyze its main ingredients. Sienna, did I cause you trouble. This is my fault.”
Calvin wasn’t stupid. As he read the documents in front of him, he quickly realized the issue was with Leo
had probably kept the 25 serum for himself. His excuse that it wasn’t suitable for use was just a cover for his own selfishness.
They d been friends since they were kids, and Calvin had always trusted him completely.
problem. Uncle, but some people just aren’t worth our sympathy. They re like stray dogs. If the bones you toss them aren’t hough they’ll turn on you and tear you apart. Leo has done way too much under your name over the years. Here’s what I found. Most ly crossed the line into crime. If anything goes wrong, hell walk away clean, and you’ll be left holding the bag. As for the 25 a not giving it back. He’s already sold it for a fortune, and the deal goes down tonight,” Sienna spl
