Chapter 154
Ollie was stunned by his motherโs slap. โMom, what did I do to you?โ Ever since he was young, his parents had never laid a finger on him. He did not expect she would slap him now. Ollie had a guess. โIs it because of what happened online?โ
They also received phone calls and messages on the way back. Lydiaโs face darkened. โWhat else could it be?โ She looked at her eldest son and asked, โHave you and Sienna ever been that intimate?โ
This question stunned Ollie. He shook his head. โNo.โ
Previously, when Sienna fell asleep, he carried her back to her room. Occasionally, he would hug her shoulders and coax her. Because of his age and personality, he was indeed not as close to Sienna as his younger brothers. He had never kissed her face or carried her on his lap after he grew up.
Lydia looked at him steadily. โItโs best if you do have it. Youโre not allowed to have it in the future. Donโt forget, you have a fiancรฉe. No wonder Marlene is cold to Sienna whenever she comes to our house.โ
โShe must have realized that your relationship with Sienna is not just as simple as that of a foster sister.โ
Lydia had previously been unhappy because of Siennaโs poor relationship with Marlene, but now she realized that she was truly mistaken. Sienna never behaved like her adopted daughter and had completely misled her sons.
Ollie was stunned when he heard these words. Marlene has indeed quarreled with him a few times because of Sienna. She thinks their love for Sienna has crossed the line! However, he did not take it to heart at that time. After all, they and Sienna had been through this for more than ten years. So he thought it was fine for them to dote on her a little.
But now, he couldnโt help but think it over. Initially, because he was used to it, Ollie didnโt think much of seeing his younger brothers cuddling with Sienna at home. But today, after seeing the photos on the internet with all kinds of captions, he realized that something was amiss; the intimacy between his younger brothers and Sienna in public had reached an unexpected level.
Photos of Jamar kissing her, Leon being intimate with her in a bar, and Joshua holding her on his lap were spliced together and posted on social media and the internet, which looked very awkward.
When Lydia saw Ollie like this, she was so angry that her entire body trembled again. โDo you also have disgusting thoughts about Sienna?โ
Ollie immediately denied it. โI didnโt. I really only treat her like a younger sister.โ It was just that, over the years, many of his actions and words toward Sienna had become a habit. He really did not have any romantic feelings for Sienna. He only had sibling feelings toward her.
Chapter 151
Lydia shifted her gaze to Leon. โWhat about you! Whatโs your relationship with Sienna?โ
Leon saw that his mother was so angry, and the anger he had felt from being beaten up earlier dissipated a lot. He did not expect that the photo of the bar that day would be posted online. Without even looking it up, he could guess that it was most likely done by Phoebe and Brenda.
With a straight face, he asked, โOther than being siblings, what other relationship can there be?โ
Lydia was so angry that she fell backward. โJust siblings? Then why were you two at the bar together, hugging and groping in front of so many people! Have you no shame!โ
โBut you just turned a deaf ear to my words. Now look, the whole internet knows about your antics. People in our circle and relatives have been calling and messaging non-stop to ask me and your dad. Youโve not only embarrassed yourself but also brought shame to our entire family.โ
โFrom today onwards, the Jenkins family will be the biggest joke in our circle.โ
Leon sneered. โAfter severing ties with Phoebe, our family has already become a joke in the circle.โ
โYou took Sienna into our family. And when we wanted our real sister, you were the one who kept telling us to treat Sienna as if she were our realโฆโ
โHow can you blame us for everything now that it has come to this?โ
โWhat a joke! I wasnโt the only one who was intimate with Sienna. Why did she only hit me and stare at me?โ he thought.
Lydia did not expect Leon to say such a thing. She pointed at him and said, โYou, you ungrateful brat! Are you blaming me?โ
Leon shrugged. โI didnโt say that itโs all your fault, but isnโt everyone responsible for what happened? Sienna took the initiative to be so close to us since we were young. She even guided us to coax her with hugs and kisses.โ
Leon had also thought about it carefully after Frankโs reminder. Only then did he realize that Sienna was not as innocent and obedient as he thought. Ever since she came to the house, she had deliberately been intimate with the brothers and replaced their biological sister.
After Phoebe returned to the Jenkins family, it was also Sienna who often felt wronged in private, hinting that Phoebe bullied her and wanted to chase her away, and that Phoebe did not even want to let her be the adopted daughter and wanted to snatch everything from her. That was why the brothers were getting more and more dissatisfied with Phoebe. Otherwise, when Phoebe had just returned, they would have treated her well.
Only then did Phoebe become closer to them. She made medicinal cuisine for them, pills, and massages. Perhaps because of this, Sienna felt a sense of crisis and often spoke ill of Phoebe in front of them, leading to misunderstandings and anger.
When Leon looked back from a rational point of view, he realized what was terrifying. With Phoebeโs straightforward personality, if she really wanted to deal with Sienna, she would not do anything behind her back. When Phoebe treated them well, they were biased toward Sienna and criticized Phoebe; Phoebe retorted coldly. When Phoebe had been asked to give in to Sienna, she rejected it. Then, they and Phoebe ended up in an unhappy mess. And then, Sienna gave them all sorts of hints. Their impression of Phoebe was that she was willful and liked to fool around. Hence, as Frank had said, they had been toyed by Sienna all these years.
Leon looked at Lydia and said. โYou saw it before, but you didnโt say anything, right? Now that everyone knows about it, you feel embarrassed. Why are you criticizing me?โ
Lydia choked. โAt that time, you were young and your actions were more intimate. I only thought that you two had a good relationship.โ
At that time, she was more gratified that her sons took good care of Sienna and she also transferred her feelings and longing for her biological daughter to Sienna. Not long ago, she realized that their actions were too intimate, but it was already too late.
Leon tugged at his tie in frustration. โThe truth is already like this. So be it. Itโs not like we havenโt been embarrassed before. Iโm going back to my room to rest.โ
