Kenneth Brown was in no mood to joke with her. He thought he had been discreet about what he did that night, but he didn’t expect Sabrina Johnson to find out. Kenneth’s heart was in turmoil. Although he did not show it on his face, his mind was already in chaos. "Manager Brown, wait for me. You’re walking too fast; I can’t keep up." Kenneth slowed down, allowing Sabrina to catch up. Sabrina looked at his cold face and giggled. "What are you afraid of?" "You’re not scared my sister will find out you slept with..." Kenneth interrupted, "Sabrina Johnson! Stop talking!" He looked around guiltily, fearing that someone would hear her. "...She chuckled. ’I feel like having seafood. If you don’t treat me, I’ll go talk to my sister... I’m sure she’d be very interested in hearing about what you did at the bar...’" "I want to eat seafood." There were people coming and going, and Kenneth was genuinely afraid that Sienna might see them together and misunderstand. The red Porsche Cayenne was the latest model. The Cayenne was already expensive, and this newest version wouldn’t be any cheaper. Kenneth felt indignant for Sienna. How could this imposter live a life so much better than Sienna’s? What right did she have? The more Kenneth liked Sienna, the more he loathed Sabrina. At the seafood restaurant, there weren’t many people since it wasn’t mealtime yet. The two went directly to a private room upstairs. Sabrina ordered a table full of dishes without asking Kenneth what he wanted to eat. Avocado shrimp with sauce, rosemary salt-baked shrimp, steamed crab, grilled sea bass... A table full of dishes. Kenneth asked, "Can you even eat all this?" "If I don’t finish it, I’ll leave it. As if I can’t afford a seafood meal?" Sabrina looked at Kenneth’s stingy appearance and said disdainfully, "Don’t worry, I know you don’t have much money, so I won’t make you pay for this." People thought he had a tough time marrying into the Johnson Family, but in his relationship with Sienna, he never really suffered. On the other hand, it was Sabrina who always looked down on people. "Being wasteful is disgraceful, and frugality is a virtue! Sienna earns so much money, yet when we go out, we only order enough for the two of us." Sabrina scoffed, "Don’t compare me to her. I was born to enjoy a good life, while Sienna was born to suffer." "Have you ever read ’Dream of the Red Chamber’?" "Xiangling, originally from Suzhou, was the only daughter of a local scholar. At the age of five, she was abducted by con artists when she was out watching a lantern festival because her family servant, Billie, wasn’t watching her properly. She was then sold by traffickers to Brady Stevens. Later, a notorious bully killed Brady Stevens and forcibly took Xiangling as his concubine, renaming her Xiangling. She was slender and graceful, and gentle and quiet in her actions. Later, this same bully married Summer Goldwright, who was extremely jealous of Xiangling. Not only was Xiangling’s name changed to Autumn Ling, but Summer Goldwright also subjected Xiangling to cruel treatment that led to her death. Xiangling had a maid, who later married Jonathan Collins as a concubine but then rose to become his lawful wife. Xiangling was a ’lady by birth but fated to be a maid,’ while that servant girl was a ’maid by birth but fated to be a lady.’ Nᴇw ɴovel chaptᴇrs are published on NoveI-Fire.ɴet Kenneth Brown, doesn’t it remind you of Sienna and me?" Kenneth disagreed completely. "All I know is, a crow is still a crow, even if it tries to wear the colorful feathers of a phoenix." "Are you calling me a sparrow?" "It’s hard to say. After all, your parentage is unknown. Who knows what your parents did for a living?" Kenneth said, targeting Sabrina’s background. Of course, Sabrina knew her true parentage; it just wasn’t something that could be brought into the open. "Alright, I’m not going to argue with you about this. I just want to let you know that I know about the three escorts you hired that night and how you left the place early in the morning." Kenneth denied it. "That night, I had a few drinks with friends, and we called some escorts for company. It’s common in such settings; nothing strange about it." "Kenneth Brown, do you really think I’d come and talk to you about this today if I didn’t have solid evidence?" Kenneth clenched his wine glass, staring at Sabrina. "What exactly do you know?" "I know you slept with three escorts..." Sabrina sneered maliciously. "As for Sienna, I know her better than anyone. She’s extremely principled and intolerant; she can’t stand the slightest imperfection. If she finds out that you hired prostitutes, your relationship with her is over." "What do you want me to do?" Kenneth wasn’t a fool; he knew Sabrina wasn’t there to help him out of the kindness of her heart. "I heard that Eastminster Pharmaceutical Factory recently developed an effective drug for Fibromyalgia, and I want the formula for that drug!" Without a second thought, Kenneth immediately refused. "That’s impossible!" The Fibromyalgia drug was the culmination of three years of research and countless sleepless nights for the researchers, his sister among them. How could he selfishly hand over everyone’s hard work? "Don’t be so quick to refuse me... Think about it. If your beloved Sienna finds out you slept with three filthy escorts, you can forget about being Sienna’s Fiance. You’ll probably be kicked out of the family! Eastminster Pharmaceutical Factory has reached its current success thanks to your hard work. Are you really willing to just hand it all over?" Sabrina looked at her beautiful nails, decorated with pink diamonds that shone brightly under the light. Her hands had never done a day’s work, and she certainly didn’t want to lead the exhausting life that Sienna led. The Stewart Family wanted to marry Sienna. Wasn’t it just so they could use her as a money-making tool at home? Sabrina felt pity for Sienna. "This braised prawn dish is really delicious. You should try it." How could Kenneth have any appetite for food? Sabrina focused on eating the seafood. She was extremely picky and, to maintain her figure, had a small appetite. After just a few bites, she stopped eating. "I’m full. You think about it. Once you’ve decided, give me a call." Sabrina took a silver-pink, perfumed business card from her bag and placed it in front of Kenneth. Kenneth didn’t take it, his brow furrowed, still struggling with his dilemma. "Kenneth Brown, don’t keep me waiting too long. I don’t have much patience." Sabrina looked at Kenneth, knowing he would tell Serena the formula, just as she wanted. A key reason the Johnson Family and Stewart Family recently won a major contract was Eastminster Pharmaceutical Factory’s development of an effective drug for Fibromyalgia. If she sold the formula to other pharmaceutical companies, allowing them to patent it, Eastminster Pharmaceutical Factory would not only face accusations of patent infringement, but she would also ensure they were sued for corporate espionage. She let out a dark chuckle. She couldn’t wait to see how Sienna would cry when that time came!
