My Ex-husband Begs Me Back novel Chapter 1122

Chapter 1122: Indulgence

"We should have invited you to our house for a meal earlier. It's our fault in the Ward family. Mr. King, we hope you'll forgive us!"

"Mr. Ward, no need to be so polite. Sienna has been spoiled at home, a bit willful, causing some trouble for the Ward family, hasn't she?"

Their conversation made Rex and Sienna subconsciously exchange glances, their brows furrowing slightly.

Sienna had already concluded who the guest at home was. After all, Mr. Ward just mentioned Mr. King, and who else could be addressed like that but him?

With narrowed eyes and a displeased expression on her face, Sienna quickened her pace towards the inside. Rex gently pulled her, lowering his voice, "Don't be nervous. Everything is fine. This is our home."

However, even though he said so, the fact that he came here indicated that the things he mentioned on the phone this morning were true. If she didn't cooperate, he would take action against the Ward family.

Sienna tightly pursed her lips, her expression exceptionally cold. She opened her mouth but remained silent for quite some time.

"Back already? Why are you standing here? Hurry up and come in!" Madison's voice echoed from the side of the stairs. Seeing Rex and Sienna standing there whispering, she couldn't help but laugh, "Why aren't you saying anything even when you're back home?!"

The two in the hall heard Madison's words clearly. Sienna quickly greeted Madison and then walked hand in hand with Rex behind her into the hall.

Sienna's gaze had been fixed on Mario, who was sitting on the sofa drinking tea with Mr. Ward, since they entered. Similarly, Mario's eyes were also on her.

Their eyes met, and Madison's voice rang out, "Sienna, your brother came to Hance City, and you didn't tell the family in advance? Your dad found out and quickly invited your brother to dinner. You wouldn't mind, would you?"

Madison asked in a low voice, and Sienna smiled and shook her head, "Why would I mind? I should thank Mom and Dad for taking care of my brother!"

Madison smiled slightly when she heard this. They encountered Mario by chance. In the afternoon, Madison and Mr. Ward attended a gathering, and they happened to meet Mario there. Due to the party last night, Mario had developed connections with many people in the Hance City business circle. After the introductions, when Mr. Ward and Madison learned about Sienna's relationship with Mario, Mr. Ward proactively suggested inviting Mario for dinner.

Facing Mr. Ward's enthusiasm, Mario casually responded, "We're all family; there's no need to be so polite. Eating outside is always a bit distant. Besides, I'll be in Hance City for quite some time."

Hearing that eating outside was distant, Mr. Ward instinctively suggested, "Come to our house. Since they have been quite busy recently, let's have a good gathering today."

Mario didn't refuse and agreed directly. Then he and Mr. Ward had tea and chatted for an entire afternoon. Later, they came together to the Ward's mansion, played chess, and waited for Rex and Sienna to return. That brings us to now.

Sienna saw that Mario had been silent all this time. Their eyes met, and Mario, as if nothing had happened, looked at Sienna and said, "Why don't you say anything when you see me?"

His words carried a hint of a smile, like a protective older brother.

Mr. Ward quickly added, "Probably too happy to see you. You two siblings can catch up later. Now, let's go eat!"

Mr. Ward's expression also turned slightly subdued as he spoke, "Mr. King, are you dissatisfied with Rex?"

Madison chimed in, "Mr. King, although the Ward family isn't as affluent as the King family, and we might be considered less prestigious, Rex and Sienna are in love. We, the Ward family, will naturally treat Sienna well. So, we hope Mr. King can give the Ward family a chance!"

Madison and Mr. Ward had humbled themselves to the utmost. Despite stating that the Ward family was not on par with the King family, in reality, it was merely a show to express their value for Sienna in front of Mario.

Considering the situation, Mario immediately smiled and said, "You two are too serious. I was just thinking if Sienna, who has been spoiled by the King family since childhood, would cause trouble for the Ward family."

"Mr. King, no need to worry. Sienna is very well-behaved and treats us very well," Madison reassured with a smile.

Mr. Ward quickly added, "That's right."

Everyone chuckled one after another. Rex was still holding his glass, and Mario naturally raised his glass to clink with him.

The two locked eyes, and Mario casually said, "No need to call me 'brother.' Just address me however you like."

"Sure, brother," Rex responded with a light smile, raising his eyebrows subconsciously, his gaze arrogant and provocative.
