Chapter 153
Brian and his team thought they would have to wait a few more days for an opportunity. But the opportunity came on the first day of the variety show. They released the videos and screenshots they had just recorded and then promoted their popularity.
Sea and Joshua’s livestream quickly became a trending topic. Many people were familiar with Joshua and Sienna. Sienna was the adopted daughter of the powerful family and was previously Reece’s rumored girlfriend. Hence, many people clicked on it to watch the show. After reading it, they were all stunned. Normal siblings wouldn’t hug each other so intimately. Many people were asking if the two of them were in a private relationship.
Although Sienna and Jamar were previously very close, now Sienna and Joshua were more like a couple. Then everyone started a heated discussion about who exactly Sienna was in a relationship with. Before they could conclude, a verified account specializing in breaking news posted nine photos. In a bar, Sienna was in the arms of a young and handsome man. The two of them were intimate. There was also a photo of Sienna serving red wine to the man. It was even more ambiguous.
As soon as these photos were released, the onlookers were all trying to find out who this young man was. It didn’t take long for them to uncover the man, Leon.
[Oh my god, it’s that agent, Leon.] [He was handsome but blind.] [Wow, Sienna really has them wrapped around her finger—three brothers completely at her beck and call.] [If this isn’t being a player, then what is!] [No wonder those three treat their actual sister, Phorlie, that way. Turns out, they’re all about their beloved adopted sister instead.] [Bingo! I always thought it was insane how they sided with their adopted sister over their real one. But if it’s about that kind of relationship, well… it all makes sense now.] [Don’t you feel disgusted?] [Three guys, one girl, and they’re adopted siblings? Yeah, that’s messed up.] [All I gotta say is… what a mess.] [More like, what a family. Only the Jenkins could lose their own daughter and replace her with an adopted one like nothing happened.] [I used to like Jamar and Joshua, but this! Nope. I’m done. Unfollowing.] [Same here. Of all the people to get involved with, they chose Sienna. All three of them? That’s just sick.] [This is too much. I’m so disgusted I lost my appetite—I can’t even look at my pasta right now. I’m not a fan anymore.]
The moment the photo of Leon hugging Sienna appeared, it quickly became a trending topic. Sienna had always wanted to become popular. Today, after her rumor with Reece, she successfully occupied one-third of the trending topics.
Chapter 153
Just like last time, the comments were filled with criticisms of Sienna. She had officially gone viral—for all the wrong reasons. Clout chasers wasted no time compiling intimate photos of Sienna with her three adoptive brothers, slapping on sensational headlines, and flooding short-video apps with scandalous content. The gossip spread like wildfire, and soon, the entire internet was abuzz. It wasn’t long before the high society circles caught wind of it too.
No one could believe it. The Jenkins family’s adopted daughter and all three of their sons would be like this. Even one son being romantically involved with an adopted sister would be questionable—let alone all three. It was downright outrageous. And now that this was out in the open, people couldn’t help but wonder if the other two Jenkins brothers had similarly ambiguous relationships with Sienna. After all, rumors had already circulated about how the five brothers had pushed their own biological sister, Phoebe, to the point of severing ties and leaving home—all for Sienna. Or to offer a warning. Out of concern or to…
Those on good terms with the Jenkins family were quick to call or message Elliot and Lydia, either… Those who weren’t took the opportunity to send thinly veiled jabs, relishing in the unfolding scandal.
Elliot was currently in a discussion with a shareholder overseas. Unexpectedly, calls and messages kept coming in. After learning about what happened online from others, he immediately clicked on the trending searches. Then, his face turned ashen with anger. “Ridiculous. This is too ridiculous.” He did not expect his adopted daughter and three sons to be so intimate.
The shareholder also went to look at the trending topic. After reading it, he looked at Elliot sympathetically, “Your adopted daughter is really a troublemaker,” he said. He scoffed, thinking, That Jenkins family adoptee sure has some tricks up her sleeve—got all three of Jenkins sons wrapped around her finger. And those brothers? Ridiculous. Shameless.
Elliot was so angry. “You are right.” If it weren’t for Sienna, Phoebe wouldn’t have been so angry that she broke up with her boyfriend and the Jenkins family. He did not expect Sienna to be such a troublemaker. “These stupid sons are also useless,” Elliot sighed. It was also because they were not by his side. Otherwise, he would break their legs. The Jenkins family would be the biggest joke today.
Then his phone rang again. This father. He felt a little embarrassed. There was no need to guess. He must have called at this time because of the matter. Elliot answered the call. Sure enough, he was scolded. He was being blamed because his supposedly well-raised sons had crossed the line with their adopted sister—and worse, the whole mess had gone viral. The entire Jenkins family had lost face.
And he said Sienna was not a good person who seduced her adopted brothers. Elliot’s father also said Sienna should be driven away. Elliot was the best among his siblings in all aspects since he was young. This was the first time he had been scolded by his parents. He could only listen and promise to take care of it.
After hanging up, he immediately asked his secretary to spend money to remove the trending searches. However, it had already been made known to the entire Internet. It was not as if they could pretend that nothing had happened just by removing the trending topics. The videos of all the apps were filled with this matter. Elhot couldn’t help but call Lydia. Lydia was also being told by many people and was furious. She picked up Elbot’s call and was startled by him before she could say anything.
Elliot said that she was the one who took care of the family and disciplined their children. But she didn’t realize that they had such a relationship. How did she bring up our children, Elliot wondered. At the same time, he reflected on himself. He was also responsible, but his wife was even more so. Elliot didn’t believe that she didn’t know that her son and adopted daughter were intimate.
Lydia was scolded by Elliot. She was so angry that her entire body was trembling. She now posted this matter in the group chat of her circle. A few madams who did not have a good relationship with her just now posted… They even tagged her and said that she was thoughtful because more than ten years ago, she had wanted to raise a daughter-in-law for her son. It was downright ridiculous—like their family was trying to reinvent polyandry.
Then, her relatives took turns calling, bombarding her with questions and a round of moral lecturing. She was so angry that she wanted to faint. She did not expect to be so embarrassed one day. Now that Elliot was scolding her, she felt embarrassed and was furious.
At this moment, Leon and Ollie came back together and walked into the living room. Lydia’s eyes turned red when she saw Leon. Before the two could react, Lydia stood up and rushed in front of them. Then, she raised her hand and slapped Leon. “Bastard, are you trying to kill me?”
