Chapter 1196 - 1136: Mercy, Was I Wrong?

Johnson Family,

On a warm afternoon, Sienna Johnson was in the flower room arranging flowers, vibrant roses paired with baby’s breath. Her hand got pricked by a thorn, leaving a small droplet of blood.

Sally stood beside her and informed Sienna Johnson about Madison Jones and Ivy Evans’s situation, also revealing Madison’s intention to deal with Curly.

Sienna Johnson snipped off a rose bud with anger, glaring, "Say that again!"

Sally looked up at Sienna Johnson cautiously, "Madison Jones plans to sell Curly to Westoria’s red-light district... She’s not just saying it; she really intends to do it."

"Be more specific!"

"Madison Jones hired a few people, intending to kidnap Curly."

After hearing this, Sienna Johnson laughed coldly, "Madison Jones, Ivy Evans... Haha... Really something...

I originally planned to let them off, but since they’re asking for trouble, they can’t blame me for being ruthless."

"Madam, what do you want me to do?"

"Ask Sabrina Conner if there’s still that drug? Give some to Madison Jones, too!" Sienna Johnson commanded.

"Alright."

Madison Jones seemed to have too much energy; dealing with Ivy Evans wasn’t enough for her, now she’s targeting Curly. Since that’s the case, she shouldn’t blame Sienna Johnson for being impolite.

Sienna Johnson said sinisterly, "Clean it up thoroughly, don’t leave any evidence!"

"I understand." Sally left.

Only Sienna Johnson was left in the flower room, looking at the roses on the workstation. The roses were beautiful, but the thorns were sharp...

"I was too merciful..."

Sienna Johnson often tried to influence Adrian Desmond considering her own worldview, but ignored the environment Adrian was in.

In that world, mercy is a weakness, useless mercy only harms oneself.

If Adrian Desmond had always been the person she initially met, he wouldn’t have ended up in a coma, right?

...

Ivan arrived in Orienta late at night, just as Sienna Johnson was falling asleep, Sally woke her up.

"Madam, Ivan has arrived."

At 11 p.m., Sienna Johnson looked at the clock, full of waking frustration. Recently, she suffered from insomnia and started losing hair; she had barely fallen asleep, only to be interrupted.

"11 p.m.! Do the men from Abyanabad visit others’ homes without checking the time? Don’t they know people are asleep at this hour?"

Sally kept her head down, not responding.

Ivan was not someone she could stop, even if she wanted.

"Tell him, I’m not seeing anyone!" Sienna Johnson said irritably.

Sally advised, "Madam, you should see him anyway, Ivan is not someone..."

"..."

Sally saw Sienna Johnson lying in bed, eyes closed, trying to sleep, and said, "If you don’t see Ivan, he will definitely ensure you won’t sleep tonight."

Ivan was domineering and selfish; everything was according to his temperament. If something displeased him, Ivan could cause a major commotion.

Though over thirty, he acted like a child. Having interacted with him a few times, Sally felt no affinity for this man.

Sienna Johnson slowly opened her eyes, "Oh? Not letting me sleep?"

"Madam, go see him, just send him away." Sally pleaded.

"This is absurd, treating a bandit who robbed my goods with courtesy? Throw that man out!" Sienna Johnson said nastily.

"Madam, isn’t that inappropriate?"

"This is Orienta, my territory! My territory, I call the shots!"

Sally: ...

...

Sally went outside to meet Ivan.

Living in the tropics, Ivan underestimated Sileria City’s winter chill.

He wore a short-sleeved floral shirt on top, black shorts on the bottom, flip flops on his feet, with a scruffy beard, giving the impression he was vacationing in Hiwahiwa.

When Sally entered, Ivan was smoking a cigar, lazily exhaling smoke.

"Huh? Just you? Where’s Adrian Desmond’s woman?" Ivan looked behind Sally, but didn’t see the beautiful wife of Adrian Desmond.

Rumor on the street claimed Adrian’s wife was exceedingly beautiful, and Ivan had been eager to meet her.

Moreover, the fact that someone could make Adrian Desmond, a man of his stature, marry... Haha... Ivan was even more curious.

Adrian "married," although his partner was a beauty, for a man to marry a woman, haha... Ivan felt Adrian was a disgrace to Abyanabad men.

Sally said, "Madam is asleep, it’s inconvenient to see you now."

"Asleep?" Ivan asked in a loud voice.

Late at night, the Johnson Family habitually slept early and woke early, making the place particularly quiet, amplifying Ivan’s voice.

"Adrian’s woman has quite a temper. Ivan is here, she dares not to see me. Haha..."

Ivan’s voice was rough, unpleasant when he laughed. Sally stood there, head down, speaking little.

"When will she see me?"

"Madam gets up at seven in the morning."

"What? I have to wait until daylight?" Ivan shouted.

Sally really wanted to tell Ivan: I’m not deaf, I hear perfectly well, you don’t need to be so loud.

"Why don’t I arrange for you to stay in the guest room?"

"I’ll go see Adrian Desmond then."

Besides confidants, Sienna Johnson wouldn’t allow anyone to see Adrian Desmond. She feared someone might plot against him while he’s vulnerable in his coma.

Ivan, being a business rival, had recently stolen a batch of goods from Adrian Desmond, so Sally dared not take him to Adrian. What if something happens?

"Well... Sixth Master and Madam sleep together, it’s probably inconvenient." Sally explained.

"Isn’t he in a coma? In a coma, Adrian can still sleep with his wife?"

Sally: ...

Ivan waved his hand dismissively, "Fine, tomorrow it is then... Hey, Jasmine... Get me some pretty girls to serve me."

Sally reacted with disbelief, feeling like she was taken for a pimp, and said helplessly, "I don’t know where to find pretty girls."

"..."

"Also, my name isn’t Jasmine, it’s Sally." Sally corrected.

"Is there a difference between Jasmine and Sally? They’re just aliases." Ivan said.

Sally: ...

"Ask around, who knows where to find pretty girls?... I came here for Orienta’s beauties."

"..."

"Tell those women I have money! As long as they satisfy me, any amount is fine!"

Ivan acted arrogantly, and Sally wanted to punch him.

"Why are you standing there? Get going!"

Adrian Desmond didn’t indulge in women, hence his subordinates didn’t have such habits either; many of them were virgins.

Being a woman, Sally was even less familiar with places to find women.

"Well... Seems no one knows." Sally said, bracing herself.
