The Villain's Redemption

Chapter 333 - Liam The Fiance

"The Rival company?" Of course, she already knew that Scarlette was working with SS CORP. The conversation earlier confirmed her suspicions. But… why? Scarlette wanted to become the male lead's woman, right?

Then why work for the Rival company?

"Yes. I was able to trace the money from the SS CORP. And…"

"And?"

"Scarlette."

Surprisingly, Grant was pretty honest with her. As his friend, he could have hidden the fact that it was Scarlette who first approached the corporate spy. And maybe deal with Scarlette himself. But he didn't.

What a good little brother.

But what would happen if he knew that she wasn't his real sister? Again, her eyes drifted towards the result. Honestly, she was a little excited to know the truth.

"Scarlette…" Sienna uttered.

"Yes. She is… I believe she is getting close to me because of Rouse Tech."

"You believe she is a spy?" Well, that's good. Isn't it? If the male lead would see that woman as his enemy, then her job is almost complete.

"Yes. I believe she is a spy."

"Do you want to deal with it?"

"Yes."

"Good. Then… I will let you deal with it." Of course, Sienna was only a minor character in the male lead's life. She shouldn't intervene in stuff like this. She should let the male lead…

"I'm sorry…"

"Huh?" Why was he sorry?

"I wasn't careful enough. I didn't notice that she was up to something."

"You shouldn't be sorry to me, Grant. I— "

"I should."

"…" The man looked guilty and regretful. And of course, she found this weird. After all, this was supposed to be the male lead. Aren't they all arrogant and stuff? He wasn't supposed to apologize to her! He was supposed to give her a cold gaze and leave! Why was this man not following the script? "It's fine, Grant. You are still young." Yep, it should be because he was only young. That is the main reason why his coldness isn't as freezing as the other male lead.

This man… is the male lead of a contemporary romance. He should follow the standard protocol of all male leads!

Alright, maybe she had been blinded by her system. Honestly, she knew that each people were different. She just thought that the protagonists of each world follow a certain set of attitudes.

….

Grant left quickly after their conversation. Because of that, she had the time to look at the result of the DNA. This time, it was her turn to be surprised.

It was because Grant and her weren't related! She actually thought she was his aunt or something! After all, she looked exactly like their father!

What?

Wasn't this too confusing?

If she and Grant weren't related then, one of them is not the child of their father! Considering that she looked exactly like her father, there was a possibility that she was her father's real daughter.

If that is the case….

Then what about Grant?

'Robot!'

[Bee is here.]

'Did you miss anything in the plot?'

[The host's parentage wasn't included in the plot. It wasn't relevant.]

'But you gave me a mission!'

[It is called a mission so the Host will work hard to unravel its mystery.]

'Hah! It seems that you are becoming good at arguing with me!'

["…"]

This system is slowly growing in every world! She felt that everything was unfair.

'Then answer me. Who was Grant's father?'

[Host should work harder to unravel the mystery.]

'How about…'

[Host should work harder to unravel the mystery.]

"You— "

[Host should work harder to unravel the mystery.]

She pursed her lips. Her face was slowly turning red from the irritation that she felt inside. This system was really not helping her, ah! She wanted to complain but she was almost a hundred percent sure that this robot would tell her to work hard again!

"Alright! Since that is the case, I would ask that old man about my family!" She needed to accomplish everything in a year! She had no time to sit behind her desk and wait for them to approach her!

She immediately got up and grabbed her bag. She was about to leave her office when she heard the door open.

A man wearing an all-white suit walk in.

"Miss… I tried to stop him." Jane followed the man inside. She, too, had an irritated look on her unusually calm face.

"Sienna… my dearest!" The man walked towards her. He raised his arm and suddenly envelop her in a hug. The action surprised her, she didn't have the time to avoid the man's arms. However, she was quick to push him away from her.

"Why are you here?"

"Is this how you speak to your fiance my beautiful sunshine?"

Ew.

'Robot, why didn't you warn me about this body's fiance?'

[It was not relevant to the plot.]

"You run away from our engagement party and completely embarrassed me to my family. And yet here you are… asking me why am I here. To be honest, I feel a little tingle in my heart. It must be breaking apart!"

What the fuck!?

Sienna glared at the man. "I am busy. You are not welcome here! Leave!"

"Sienna…"

"Liam…" the mention of the word made her more and more irritated. The name felt oddly familiar to her. "Get out."

"But…"

"Leave!"

"Sienna… how could you do this? I am your fiance! The media…"

"That is not my concern." Liam was an actor. As in a Hollywood actor. As is someone who had hundreds of billboards all over the world. He had millions of fans who thought they were engaged because of a small coincidence. Now, he kept on bothering her, asking her to reconsider a marriage contract with him. She had refused his offer hundreds of times. But the man didn't seem to know the word 'give up'. It was either he was bored or he wanted this marriage because of some other unknown reasons.

Either way, Sienna had no time to deal with him right now.

"Sienna…" Liam held her wrist. "Can you just think about my proposal? It would benefit both of us. Surely, marriage could help you too. Plus, you are the perfect woman for my family. They would love you and support you. If you marry me, you will surely…"

"Get your filthy hands away from her!"

Before Sienna could react, Grant was already standing in front of her. He grabbed Liam's hand and pushed it away. "Don't you dare touch her again!" Grant threatened.. He made sure to block Liam's gaze as he glared at the man before him.
