The Bigshot Married Himself to the Heiress

Chapter 1187 - 1127: Eliminate the Root (Part 2)



"Sabrina, what can I possibly say about you?"

Sienna Johnson looked at Sabrina Conner, her face filled with helplessness.

She knew he was unreliable; she had specifically warned him before taking action. Yet he hadn’t taken it seriously and caused such a big problem.

Sabrina asked, "What’s the matter?"

"Now Madison Jones knows that it was me who instructed you to deal with her daughter. She’s starting to give me trouble."

Sabrina dismissively said, "Madam, don’t be afraid of her. Worst case, I’ll just get rid of that Madison Jones."

Sienna frowned, displeased with his crude and simple approach, "Do you know how powerful the Jones Family is? Madison Jones is a third-generation official! The civilians do not fight with officials, don’t you know?"

"So what?"

Sabrina didn’t care about third-generation or fourth-generation officials. Whoever provoked him, he would get rid of them.

Sienna took a deep breath and explained to Sabrina, "The Jones Family has started investigating Eastminster Group’s accounts. Because I have always adhered to the law, not evading taxes, they haven’t found anything so far.

But as long as they want to bring me down, they can always find ways to do it.

Thanks to you, I am now being targeted by the Jones Family. Before long, I’ll be facing all kinds of trouble."

Sabrina said, "Who are they? I’ll take them out!"

Sienna responded, "Sabrina, this is Orienta! In Orienta, we have the rule of law. It’s easy to take out a person, but the aftermath requires far more effort than killing someone.

We originally only needed to deal with Ivy Evans, but because of your mishandling, now we have to contend with the entire Jones Family."

"..."

"Sabrina, the reason I’m saying so much to you today is not to blame anyone right or wrong; I simply want to tell you, in the future when dealing with matters, think more and don’t act impulsively."

Sabrina was a bit dissatisfied but did not argue.

"No matter how much I say, if you don’t take it in, it’s useless. You should go back and think carefully; if you can’t figure it out, I won’t dare to let you handle anything for me in the future.

Because for you to handle one thing for me, I end up spending more time and effort cleaning up after you."

Sienna had said all she could; if Sabrina could understand, that would be best, if not, it didn’t matter; this person would not be used in the future.

Sabrina snorted and left defiantly.

Sienna watched Sabrina’s back with a chilly gaze, knowing he hadn’t taken his words seriously. She couldn’t help but sigh.

This matter can’t be entirely blamed on Sabrina; it was her own failure to recognize his ability that led to the current mess.

Sabrina is someone Sienna would no longer use in the future.

...

Sileria City was Sienna Johnson’s territory, which she had managed well over the years. So when the Jones Family wanted to take her down, Sienna was the first to know.

Timing was crucial, and at least Sienna grasped the opportunity, giving her ample time to act in advance.

That day, Sienna took Pauline Briggs, Sally, and Melly to the Briggs Family, seeking alliances.

In the car, Sienna was a bit weary; Pauline had placed some Black Chicken Soup in a thermos, just at the right temperature.

"Sienna, have some chicken soup, you haven’t had much breakfast." Pauline instructed Melly to drive slower and poured a bowl of soup for Sienna.

Thinking about the twins in her belly, Sienna knew that carrying twins required more nutrition, so she forced herself to drink a bowl even though she lacked appetite.

"When we get to your grandfather’s house, don’t say anything; I’ll do the talking. As long as your grandparents and two uncles are alive, no one dares to bully you." Pauline spoke with affection, seeing her daughter’s worried expression.

Whose family raises a daughter without pampering her? At her own home, she is cherished by her parents; married off, she is cherished by her husband. Yet their daughter is made to carry herself like a man, and even while pregnant, has to worry about these things.

"Mm." Sienna glanced at her protective mother, realizing sometimes she could be quite useful.

...

After three hours of traveling, Sienna and her group reached the Briggs Family, just in time for 10 AM.

Since it was Saturday, most of the Briggs family was there; Sienna hadn’t expected her cousin Lucy Briggs and her family to be present as well.

"Why have you come all of a sudden?" Grandpa Briggs looked at his daughter and granddaughter, surprised.

"Dad..." Pauline called her father, tears starting to fall, making Grandpa Briggs anxious, "What’s wrong? Who’s bullying you?"

"Wah wah..."

"Speak, please."

Sienna walked over, supporting her crying mother, her expression calm and composed, "Grandpa, it’s inconvenient to talk here; can we go inside to speak?"

Grandpa glanced at Sienna, seeing her serious expression, knowing it must be something important, he led everyone to his study and called his two sons to join them.

Grandma, hearing the news, also came shortly after.

Grandma looked at her daughter’s red eyes, asking urgently, "What’s wrong? Who bullied you? Don’t cry, tell me, and I’ll have your brother take care of them!"

Sienna saw that everyone had gathered and told them about the Jones Family’s actions against her.

"...Ivy Evans now has a drug addiction, turning into a ghost-like state, and I don’t know how it happened. Ivy’s mother thinks I caused it. They’ve gone back to their family for help, and now the Jones Family has started targeting me.

First, they checked if Eastminster Group evaded taxes, found nothing, then began investigating the quality of the Eastminster Pharmaceutical Factory’s products. On my way here, a friend told me that the Jones Family has also begun targeting my Pharmaceutical Factory in Serenora."

The Pharmaceutical Factory in Serenora has shares from the Briggs Family.

After Sienna finished speaking, Pauline chimed in, "Mom, Dad, Brother, you have to help Sienna. Adrian is still ill, Sienna is pregnant with twins, and I’m not capable; the Jones Family is trying to force our hands..."

"..."

"Our Sienna’s life is really miserable... She’s never had a good day since she was a child... wah wah..."

Pauline finished speaking, and didn’t say anything more, just cried, making the two elders of the Briggs Family want to cry along.

Grandma said, "What does the Jones Family think they are? Our Briggs Family isn’t afraid of them. Don’t be afraid, with me and your dad here, no one dares to bully you two."

Pauline asked, "Mom, Dad, what do you say we do about this?"

Sienna, with a look of grievance, said, "Grandpa, Grandma, Uncles, as the saying goes, it’s better to resolve feuds than to create them. Since Cousin Lucy is related to the Jones Family, perhaps Lucy can arrange for both families to meet, have a meal together, and resolve the misunderstanding."

"..."

"I’m also saddened by Ivy’s situation, but I truly don’t know how Ivy ended up like this."
