My Ex-husband Begs Me Back novel Chapter 1516

Chapter 1516: Hit the Bull's Eye

The atmosphere became particularly heavy after Mario's words, and this process continued for a few seconds until Sienna struggled and forcefully shook off his hand. Her voice turned cold as frost as she said, "What does it have to do with you if you regret being with me? You can't have your cake and eat it too. Even a three-year-old understands this principle. Don't you know, big brother?"

The term "big brother" made him realize their current relationship.

This made Mario even angrier. "Do you think that just because you call me that, I won't dare to do anything?"

"How could that be?" Sienna smiled, her eyes carrying a hint of mockery. "You never consider others. You always do whatever you want, so how could I possibly think that way?"

Mario heard the sarcasm in her tone loud and clear.

They locked eyes, and Sienna held her breath, lowering her voice so that the people inside wouldn't hear. She said, "The moment you chose King Group and the King family, you and I were destined to have no chance. I am an individual, not your accessory, and definitely not someone who doesn't mind standing still and waiting for you, no matter what you do or how you hurt me."

If she were like that, Mario probably wouldn't have liked her even the slightest bit.

Sienna was actually very afraid of Mario's affection because the other half of his affection was built on money and interests. She didn't need that kind of affection at all.

She had always been an insecure person since she was adopted by the King family when she was old enough to remember. She was afraid of being abandoned by the King family and afraid that Mrs. King wouldn't like her. So she always did everything exceptionally well, but her excellence caused displeasure among the other members of the King family. They felt that she did it intentionally to please Mrs. King and Mario, thinking it was her cunning plan, so they disliked her immensely.

As she grew older, Sienna realized that those people couldn't stand seeing Mrs. King and Mario being close, so they treated her the same way. She no longer paid attention to those people; she only cared about Mrs. King and Mario. However, she couldn't control her own emotions, and because of Mario's kindness, she developed feelings she shouldn't have. She confessed everything without any remorse, but his words, treating her as a sister, caused her to fall into an abyss completely.

After finally climbing out because of Rex, she didn't want to fall again.

She didn't want to be alone with Mario, so without giving him a chance to speak, she directly opened the door to the private room and went in.

Although he stood aside and knew he didn't fear others knowing his feelings for her, there was still Mrs. King in the private room, the mother who had suffered a lot for Mario. He couldn't just disregard her, right?

As it turned out, Sienna made the right bet.

She closed the door, concealing the fact that Mario was outside. Inside the private room, the atmosphere was harmonious and warm. Mrs. King and Rex were chatting, and laughter filled the air.

Seeing Sienna come in alone, Mrs. King couldn't help but ask, "Didn't Huan Huan go out with you?"

"She received a call and stayed outside. She'll come in after she finishes."

Then, glancing at Mario's seat, Sienna made Mrs. King ask without any worry, "Where's big brother?"

Perhaps her disguise was perfect, so Mrs. King didn't notice anything wrong and simply replied, "He went out to smoke."

When Mario left his seat, she was talking to Rex, and he silently got up and left. Rex naturally knew, but he didn't say anything and continued talking to Mrs. King.
