Chapter 314
Sienna could not help but feel a little guilty when Cain looked at her like that. At that moment, she didn’t think much about it before turning around to pull him into the path of the disaster. He loves me so much and said he wanted to protect me. Isn’t that what he should do to block such a disaster for me? Sienna thought.
However, she naturally could not say what she was thinking. Her eyes were red, and she looked guilty. “Cain, I didn’t do it on purpose. At that moment, I acted impulsively and wanted to jump off the horse with you. Who would have thought the horse’s hooves came down so fast that it stepped on you before we even fell?”
Anyway, she decided to say it was unintentional and that she didn’t want to pull him to save herself from disaster. Her words made everyone present speechless. They thought, Was she telling us she was trying to jump off the horse with Cain when she acted like that! Anyone who wasn’t blind could tell she was deliberately pulling him to block the disaster!
The others did not speak. Instead, they all looked at Cain. They wanted to know if he would believe Sienna’s words again. After all, it was useless for them to say too much. It was up to Cain.
Cain did not expect her to say that either. He might feel better if she admitted it. After all, under the dangerous circumstances, it was understandable that she did it out of instinct, although such an instinct also broke his heart. It turned out that, in Sienna’s heart, as her brother, I can be thrown out at any time, Cain thought disappointedly. He was once thrown out to take the blame, and this time, he was thrown out to block the disaster. No matter how stupid he was, he would never believe she didn’t do it on purpose.
He forced a bitter smile. “I had wanted to quit and rest, but because I wanted to protect you, I stayed until the end. I did protect you and helped you block such a disaster. You know what? Even if you didn’t drag me over, I had wanted to carry you and jump off the horse to protect you.”
When he saw the horse kicking over, his first reaction was to jump off the horse with Sienna. Then, when they got off the horse, he would use his body to block her. “She is a girl, after all,” Cain thought, “If she gets kicked by a horse, I don’t know what will happen. I’m a man. It’s only right for me to protect her.”
However, he did not expect that although his instinct was to protect her, her instinct was to pull him to block the disaster first. It made his so-called sincere protection seem ridiculous. Especially when I had trusted her time and time again. No wonder I was like a fool to others. I was indeed quite silly, Cain thought. He added weakly, “From now on, let’s just go our separate ways.”
When Sienna heard the first few sentences, she heaved a sigh of relief and was even more regretful that she had moved too fast. She thought, ‘Since Cain said he wanted to carry me down from the horse and protect me, he would probably do it.’ Just as she was about to say something touching, she heard his last sentence.
She stared at him in disbelief. ‘What does he mean by going our separate ways? Could it be that he wanted to give up on me, too! But he said that he would protect me. Isn’t carrying me and jumping off the horse the same as being pulled over by me to shield from disaster?’
Sienna felt wronged. ‘How could he say such words as if he wanted to sever ties with me and give up on me?’ She was about to say something, but Cain saw the grievance in her eyes and felt even more disappointed. He thought, ‘She doesn’t even care about the extent of my injuries now, or ask me if it hurt. Instead, she only feels wronged because of my words. She’s so ungrateful. I’ve loved and dated her all these years for nothing.’
Not only his heart, but even his entire body felt cold. He did not want to face Sienna again, let alone listen to her speak. “Please take me to the hospital,” he said to the paramedics and closed his eyes. Now, he was afraid of such a sister.
Chapter 314
At this moment, Leon, Joshua, and Jamar’s words sounded in his mind. In the past, he didn’t care and wouldn’t listen, but now, he couldn’t help but realize what they said was true. It turns out they had already seen through Sienna’s selfish, cold, and ruthless personality: Cain thought, “I was the only one who kept finding excuses for her and trusting her like a fool. I even kept targeting my real sister for her sake.”
However, Phoelse, his biological sister, whom he hurt in the end, did not harm him like this. She had even saved him once in the garden last time. While Sienna, his adopted sister, whom he had doted on for more than ten years, could give up on him at any time. When Sienna pulled me to block the disaster, didn’t it occur to her that the hooves would trample me to death? Cain couldn’t help but wonder.
Then, he had an answer in his heart. She probably wouldn’t even think about it. After all, what am I to her? She can sacrifice me anytime she wants. After more than a decade, I’ve only just seen through her true nature now. She’s so good at pretending. Sure enough, she’s not truly related to us by blood, and she doesn’t cherish all the love we’ve given her over the years.
Instead, she takes our love for granted and never thinks about giving anything back. Cain could not help but wonder what would have happened if what happened just now had happened to him and Phoebe. After Cain finished speaking, the medical staff quickly carried him out and placed him in the ambulance. Under such circumstances, in Oriar, ambulances were allowed to enter from another door.
Cain was sent to the ambulance. Jamar, who was in the stands, also rushed over. Then, the ambulance drove away. Jamar looked at Cain worriedly and asked, “How are you feeling now! Are you seriously injured?” What had just happened had scared the hell out of him. He had seen through Sienna’s thoughts and known she was also a little ungrateful, but he didn’t expect her to be so ungrateful as to the extent of being ruthless.
At home, the five brothers doted on her very much. But the person who loved and protected her the most was Cain. When Sienna wanted to study abroad and asked them who could accompany her, none of them wanted to go overseas, but Cain agreed and accompanied her, despite the truth that he didn’t want to go either. She wanted to enter the entertainment industry, so Cain learned to be a director and wanted to protect her.
In the past, no matter what she wanted to do, Cain would take the initiative to accompany her. Even when Phoebe had just returned, Cain was the coldest to Phoebe because of Sienna. Was this how Sienna repaid Cain, the brother who loved her the most? Jamar thought disappointedly.
Jamar felt disappointed and sad when he saw how Sienna caught Cain to block the disaster without hesitation. Because it happened so suddenly, it didn’t give people much time to think. Therefore, the instinctive action was naturally what she was thinking. In other words, Sienna did not care about Cain at all. She could give up on him at any time. Even if it would endanger Cain’s life, he would not care. Her coldness was too hard to accept, but it was a fact.
Jamar could not help but rejoice that because of everything that had happened before, he had started to distance himself from the cold Sienna. Otherwise, he might have ended up like Cain. “Although she had also sold us out previously, most of us only took the blame for her, but Cain ended up so tragically,” Jamar thought.
Upon hearing Jamar’s voice, Calu opened his eyes. He saw Jamar’s worried and anxious eyes. Moreover, Jamar asked about his injuries and feelings with concern. “This is the attitude a family member should have,” Cain thought. He recounted Sienna’s expressions and reactions from the incident until he left. There was guilt, touch, evasion, and grievance, but what was missing was worry and anxiety.

With this comparison, he felt even more disappointed. He couldn’t help but pant in anger. Then, he pulled his upper body and trembled in pain.
