Chapter 127 Childhood Sweethearts
“Sienna, you are here. Mr. Olson has been waiting for you for a long time. Go over and say hello to
him.”
Sienna slightly leaned forward and handed the gift to Warner.
“Long time no see, Warner. This is just a small token of my appreciation.”‘
“Hm, why are you being so formal when returning to your own home? If people didn’t know any better, they’d think something happened between you and Adrian…”
Sienna tightly clenched her fingers as she sensed that Warner had some ulterior motive with his
words.
But Sienna didn’t care. Anyway, she was leaving soon.
Even if Warner didn’t ask, other people would doubt them due to the news all over the Internet.
“Warner, you are really good at joking.”
Sienna just sneered, nodded and left. Then she walked towards Dudley who came downstairs.
„But she didn’t notice Warner’s meaningful and evil smile behind her.
When Sienna came to Dudley’s side, he immediately smiled.
Although Dudley treated everyone with a serious expression,
he looked at Sienna with affection as if she was his own granddaughter. This made many of the Olson family’s female members filled with envy.
Although Dudley was old, he was still healthy. He sat upright, with his back straight.
When he saw her approaching, he looked at her with a smile, exuding a gentle and friendly gaze.
“Sienna, you are too much! You haven’t visited us for such a long time, and every day, you only let Adrian bring back those useless supplements.”
“Supplements? What supplements?”
This sentence made Sienna unknowingly suspicious. When did she ask Adrian to buy supplements for her grandpa?
Besides, she was trapped in the villa by Adrian for a while. And she had been poisoned and ill, so she wasn’t able to do anything at that time.
But grandpa would not lie to her, so it must have been Adrian making things up.
But in order not to disappoint her grandpa, Sienna tried to make up an excuse for this lie.
“Oh, the supplements. I was a bit occupied with something recently, so I asked him to bring them
over for you.”
“In the future, when you come, it will be much better than those things.”
Sienna let out a deep breath, glad that she was finally able to get away with this lie.
Dudley suddenly called her closer, “It would be even better if you could bring me a grandson.”
This sentence immediately made Sienna’s face turn red, and she subconsciously looked at her belly, avoiding eye contact.
She didn’t know how to explain it to him. And Adrian wouldn’t admit to this unexpected child.
Instead of letting him stay with the Olson family as a pawn, it was better for her to take her child. away and leave.
Sienna forced a smile on her face, feeling helpless.
At this moment, Adrian came over and glared at Sienna. There was an indescribable seriousness in his cold eyes.
His gaze flickered with a poisonous snake-like sinister look, and she knew what it meant.
At this moment, a young lady rushed over and tightly wrapped his arm, leaning half of her body against his side, making herself quite intimate.
Sienna looked towards her and found this woman very familiar. She suddenly realized it was Edwina after taking out her phone.
Wasn’t she Edwina, the daughter of the Carter family who just returned from studying abroad and had long been a close friend of the Olson family?
She carried a suitcase behind her, so she should have just returned from the airport.
Her hair was tied into a ponytail, and she looked cute and attractive. Her eyes were very bright.
A delicate blush emerged on her cheeks, making her as pretty as a picture. She caught the attention of everyone in the room as soon as she entered.
Sienna wrinkled her eyebrows slightly.
She had known about this person since college, seeing how they went to school together and came home together.
The Carter family and the Olson family had an excellent relationship, and their business dealings were inseparable.
Sienna even dared to speculate that if she hadn’t gone abroad to study, he might have already

married Edwina now.
Thinking of this, a trace of inferiority suddenly appeared in her heart.
Who didn’t like a girl who was delicate, cute and simple like Edwina?
“Grandpa, it’s not too late, right?”
“It’s timely, and it’s good that you’re back!”
Dudley really liked Edwina, and at this moment, Sienna felt like an outsider.
It seemed that they were a well matched couple, standing together.
And most importantly, it was rare for a girl to hold onto his arm, but he didn’t instinctively move away. Instead, a hint of surprise showed in his eyes.
She had never seen such a feeling in Janice before.
Sienna comforted herself that it didn’t matter as she and Adrian were impossible, and she would leave soon anyway.
“Why did you come back?”
Adrian spoke in a gentle tone that Sienna had always longed for.
Edwina rubbed against Adrian and yawned, emanating a faint fragrance of roses.
“What? Are you upset because I came back early, Adrian?”
“Not at all. But if you had told me, I could have sent Alexander to pick you up.”
Sure enough, Sienna was standing there in embarrassment, like a transparent person.
Just as she was about to turn around and leave, a “Sienna” stopped her.
“Sienna, you came here today too. I’m sorry. I was so happy to see Adrian that I didn’t notice you.”
This sentence made Sienna unsure how to react.
She could only awkwardly nod and look around uneasily with her eyes.
“It’s okay, I’m about to go to the venue. You can continue.”
After finishing speaking, Sienna hurriedly strode away, holding a wine glass and sitting there as if nothing had happened.
This scene was seen by Maverick.
“Are
you sad?”

Sienna turned her head when she heard the voice, but she didn’t know when Maverick was behind
her.
She didn’t know much about this Maverick, except that he had a difficult life.
“Hello, Maverick. What did you just say? I didn’t quite catch it.”
“This doesn’t matter. What matters is holding onto a man’s heart. It’s not about background or Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
beauty.”
“Maverick, I don’t understand what you are talking about.”
In fact, Sienna was very shocked inside. How could he know about her and Adrian?
“When it comes to family background and personal qualities, you really can’t compete with her.”
Sure enough, everyone could see that, but so what? She had long lost her love for him.
Perhaps hate would fade away with time once she left. She believed that the name “Adrian” would slowly fade out of her life.
“But if Adrian doesn’t love her, she’ll always lose.”
Upon hearing this, Sienna couldn’t help but curl her lips into a cold smile.
Love?
That word was like a thorn in the heart in terms of Adrian, who was as cold as ice.
Only she herself could truly understand what that felt like.
Before giving the final speech, there was a ball. Sienna felt exhausted. She had planned to see Dudley before leaving.
But she never expected to encounter a familiar figure at the ancestral gathering of the Olson family.
She even thought her eyes were playing tricks on her, rubbing them several times to confirm that there was indeed a person nearby chatting with a group of people.
When he turned around, Sienna almost fell to the ground.
Ben
Malcolm?
Why was he here? Wasn’t this the meeting of the Olson family?
When Maverick first saw Sienna’s expression, he was also deeply surprised.
“What? Does Mrs. Olson know him?”
“Malcolm? He’s not from the Olson family, how could he be here?”
“Mr. Mckinney is the third largest investment shareholder of the Olson Group. Dudley has something to announce, so the shareholders of his own company must be present.”
Sienna had to believe it. But when did he become a shareholder of the Olson Group? Could it be for the Mckinney family?
Sienna felt that Malcolm was too risky. After all, Adrian had great malice towards him.
She walked over immediately, but Malcolm was not surprised to see her.
“Sienna, you’re here.”
Sienna pulled him back. “Malcolm, how do you become a shareholder of the Olson Group? Why don’t I know?”
Sienna stood on the edge of the dance floor, keeping as far away from the Olson family as possible.
She was worried. Malcolm and Donald were the closest people besides her father to her, she would never let them be in trouble for her.
But Malcolm had a relaxed expression. He stretched out his hand like a gentleman, with a calm demeanor, and an elegant smile on his face.
“Ms. Mckinney, can I ask you to dance?”
Sienna turned to look at Adrian who was dancing with Edwina on the dance floor, and sighed.
She became more and more confused. What exactly was Malcolm going to do?
Malcolm didn’t wait for her to react and held her delicate hand.
He strode slowly towards the dance floor, his eyes sweeping over the people one by one, with a kind of silent majesty, but not lacking in tenderness.
Sienna gently put her hands on his shoulders, while Malcolm gently put his arms around Sienna’s
waist.
Seeing this, Adrian felt a bit of unhappiness in his heart for some reason. Although he was dancing
