Chapter 254: Chapter 254: Julian Forrester Woke Up!!

Manager Jennings continued, "Miles Everett heard you do cultural relic restoration. He brought something with him and said he wanted to ask for your guidance."

Manager Jennings was, of course, aware of the situation between Sienna Everett and the Everett Family. The decision of whether or not to see Miles Everett had to be Sienna’s alone.

After hearing what Manager Jennings said over the phone, Sienna Everett asked suspiciously, "What did he bring?"

"It’s in a box, so I couldn’t see it clearly. I’m guessing it’s some kind of cultural relic, and he wants to ask for your advice on how to restore it? Miss Everett, do you want to see him?"

"No," Sienna Everett refused without a second thought.

Manager Jennings couldn’t have been more understanding of her answer. "Alright, I’ll turn him away for you, Miss Everett."

Thanks to Miss Everett, The Argent Auction House’s online presence had grown considerably today. Because of Winchester, even people who didn’t follow auctions had now heard of their name.

Many netizens were also hoping The Argent Auction House would post a photo of Winchester.

But they would never reveal Sienna Everett’s information without Miss Everett’s permission.

After hanging up with Manager Jennings, Sienna Everett glanced at the time. It was already past seven in the evening.

She walked to the hospital bed, took one look at Julian Forrester’s condition, and furrowed her brows with worry.

This was already the sixth day of his coma.

Tomorrow, it would be a full week.

The Old Master had specifically asked the chef to prepare a nutrient-rich dinner.

But the three of them barely ate any of it.

Keith Sterling stared at his hands—the same hands that had touched the fake bronze ware—and his stomach churned as he recalled the latrine urinal. His appetite vanished completely.

’Argh, what if I’m psychologically scarred by this!’

However, to lighten the Old Master’s mood, Keith Sterling recounted the events at The Argent Auction House. "Grandpa, everyone online is curious about who Winchester is now. Sierra is just too amazing!"

The Old Master’s eyes filled with admiration. "Our Sienna is just that incredible."

Sienna Everett blushed at the praise.

Keith Sterling let out a soft sigh. ’If my cousin saw how amazing Sierra is, he would definitely praise her too.’

Thinking back on it now, no matter what it was, his cousin had always supported Sienna Everett and given her confidence.

After being trampled and hurt by the Everetts, she had to rely on her own efforts to crawl out of that suffocating swamp. But his cousin had also done everything he could to support and help her. He wanted to see her wipe away the dust and shine with a brilliant, dazzling light.

The Old Master, recalling something, remarked with feeling, "Our Sienna also knows how to do calligraphy. You practiced a lot when you were little, didn’t you?"

Sienna Everett nodded.

She suddenly remembered that when she and Julian Forrester had just gotten their marriage certificate, he had given her that one-hundred-million-yuan necklace as a wedding gift.

At the time, she had wanted to write a piece of calligraphy as a gift in return. Julian Forrester had picked the phrase "a blissful union for a hundred years, and may you be blessed with a child soon." She had been too embarrassed to write it and had kept putting it off, so much so that she still hadn’t written it for him to this day.

After a while, seeing that it was getting late, Sienna Everett urged the Old Master and Keith Sterling to go home and rest.

Only she and Julian Forrester were left in the spacious hospital room.

Sienna Everett soaked a towel in warm water and carefully wiped his body down.

After she finished and dressed him, a sharp, needle-like pain suddenly flared in Sienna Everett’s stomach. Her brow furrowed instantly; it was probably because she hadn’t been eating properly these past few days.

She clutched her stomach and rubbed it gently for a moment until the discomfort finally subsided.

Sienna Everett let out a long breath. Instead of sleeping on the caretaker’s bed nearby, she remained slumped over Julian Forrester’s bedside.

She held the man’s well-defined hand, her glistening eyes fixed unblinkingly on his pale, unconscious face, and unknowingly drifted off to sleep.

...

Sienna Everett seemed to be having a dream, a dream that someone was holding her.

The embrace was very warm, like a gentle spring or the warm sun, but the person’s face was a blur. She couldn’t see who was holding her.

Sienna Everett let out a soft murmur, instinctively moving closer to the embrace.

But the feeling of being held grew more and more real.

Sienna Everett’s eyelashes trembled. Her eyes moved beneath her lids, and she groggily opened them.

The next moment, her gaze met the man’s dark, deep eyes.

A jolt went through Sienna Everett. All sleepiness vanished in an instant as she became fully awake, her clear, dark eyes widening abruptly.

’J-Julian Forrester!’
