The Villain's Redemption

Chapter 352 - A Tense Situation

"You look like hell," Sienna said calmly. Scarlette's eyes were wide and clearly unfocused. Sienna immediately asked the system to scan the woman.

After a while, she was informed that her initial suspicion was right.

Scarlette was on drugs.

"How dare you speak!? Do you really want to die?" Scarlette snarled. She then lowered her gun and started pacing in front of Sienna. "Tell me… the truth… are you like me?"

"What?" Didn't she come here to kill Sienna? What's with all these questions? Sienna thought inwardly.

"Don't you dare lie! I want to know how you find out about those things…" Scarlette used every means to hide the tracks of her crimes. True, she killed a couple of people in the past. Aside from that, she also caused a few incidents that made a few people paralyzed or worse suicidal.

But they should not blame her for that!

Their deaths are needed for her to succeed!

They were like stepping stones for her happy and successful future.

After a while, people forget about them.

It was just survival of the fittest!

That is the reality of the world.

How dare this woman ruin everything?

"I don't know what you are talking about." Again, Sienna's answers were so calm, it made Scarlette more agitated. She felt the drug hum in her system, giving her the courage that she needed for tonight.

"You don't know?" Scarlette pointed the gun at her. She honestly thought that Sienna would at least flinched at her threats. But the woman just calmly stared at her. It looked like she was actually waiting for Scarlette to pull the trigger!

How hateful!

"You b*tch— " Scarlette was about to use the gun to slap Sienna but Sienna grabbed Scarlette's arm, stopping her.

"Not the face."

"What?"

"It would ruin my face."

"You— " Scarlette tried to move her arm, pull it away from Sienna but she failed. "How are you—" Sienna was too strong!

How is that even possible?

Sienna was thinner than her!

"Let me go," Scarlette demanded.

"So you can slap me in the face?"

"I said… let me go! B*tch!"

"Alright." Sienna smiled then she pushed Scarlette towards the floor, snatching the gun away from her. "Little kids shouldn't play with dangerous guns. Let's avoid accidents shall we?"

"You— "

"Now…" Once again, Sienna sat on the bed and looked down at Scarlette who was still sitting on the floor. "That's better. Let's do this again, shall we?"

"You demon!"

"Ask your questions. And I will answer them. This time... No guns."

Sienna was mocking her. Scarlette was sure that Sienna was laughing at her current situation.

"How dare you ruin my life?" Scarlette tried to get up but to her surprise, her legs couldn't move. "You— what did you do?"

"I let you go." Sienna didn't even hide the sarcasm in her words. "You asked for it."

"How come I can't…"

"Must be the drugs that you took?"

"…" Scarlette glared at the woman.

"So? Are you going to ask your question before I call the police?"

Scarlette tried to calm her heart. To no avail.

There is no calming down in this situation. Tonight, she came here thinking that she would walk out of this door alive. She came here to kill Sienna and end this woman's evilness.

Who would have thought that Sienna would easily overpower her?

"Are you someone like me?" Scarlette asked.

"No," Sienna answered. "I am smarter and more beautiful. I was also born rich and— "

"That's not what I was talking about!"

"Oh… then… if you are talking about love life then…. I guess we are both single?"

"You— "

"You know, I am slowly getting bored," Sienna said. "You came here intending to kill me but you took drugs and your judgment was definitely off. To be honest, I was expecting something more from you."

Sienna continued, "I expected you to use your body and try to make the old chairman fight me instead. It would be challenging that way. " She got up from the bed and found her phone.

Then she dialed the police, telling them that Scarlette was inside her room, trying to kill her.

Scarlette on the other hand was left speechless. Is this really the end of everything? The end of her?

Then she heard it.

A loud bang.

It was as if…

BANG!

Both of them looked at the door that was now broken into small pieces.

"That door was open," Sienna noted as she looked at Grant. "You didn't have to break it."

Grant stood just a few meters away from them, his expression unreadable. It looked like he was about to cry but was angry at the same time.

Even Sienna who was standing near Scarlette didn't look like she was surprised to see Grant barge into her room. She was calmly waiting for her brother to say something.

"I came here as soon as I could," Grant said.

"I don't want to know how you knew she's here."

"I— "

"It's fine. At this point… I am already used to it."

Scarlette looked at Sienna then towards Grant. The atmosphere between the two was tense. She could feel a static line in between them.

Aren't they on good terms?

What kind of atmosphere is this?

"Oh… and you can bring her with you when you leave," Sienna said. "I don't want to deal with her."

Grant stared at his sister. "Are you hurt?"

"No. Thank you."

Scarlette couldn't say a word.

What is happening here?

"Are you sure?" Grant made his way into his sister. He examined her, making sure that she didn't have any signs of injury.

"A hundred percent."

"Oh…"

"Yes."

From Scarlette's perspective, it looked like Grant was a small puppy in front of Sienna. He was awkward and he clearly lacked confidence in front of his sister.

Seeing this, Scarlette became more and more confused.

What happened to the confident Grant? What happened to the cold and arrogant man that Scarlette liked?

Just… Just what the hell is going on here?
