A Surprising Twist of Fates (Sierra and Theo)

Janet was slightly taken aback by Benson's serious expression. Then, she replied dismissively, "Got it. I don't know what kind of spell Sierra has cast on you suddenly!"

He frowned, and just then, his phone buzzed in his pocket. He pulled it out, glanced at the message, and his frown deepened.

"Dad, Mom, you two head back first. I have some things to take care of." With that, he turned and walked to his car, then drove away.

Janet watched the car disappear into the distance, fuming. She turned to Liam, glaring at him. "Liam, I gave you a signal with my eyes that you shouldn't go along with Benson's marriage. Why didn't you do what I told you?"

Liam chuckled. "Do you really think he would have listened if I objected? Besides, Dad has always approved of Benson and Sierra. Plus, given his relationship with Mr. Bobby, he treats Sierra like his own granddaughter. Why say anything against it and make Dad angry?"

Janet snorted in frustration. "You're always so worried about upsetting your father. When he gave the majority of the company shares to Theo, you didn't dare say a word. Later, he made Theo the head of Gray Corporation, the CEO, and you stayed silent again. Look at this huge Gray family-has he ever treated you as his own son, as an equal?

"All he cares about is that younger son born to his later wife. Look at other families the first son is always the priority. But in our family, it's the complete opposite! If you had fought for it back then, maybe Gray Corporation would be yours now. Instead, you're stuck taking orders from Theo. How ridiculous!"

With that, Janet yanked open the car door and angrily got in, not noticing Liam's clenched fists.noveldrama

He turned his gaze to the plaque on Gray Manor, his eyes filled with a simmering resentment.

Fought for it?

In front of Edward, he could never compete with Theo. He didn't even have the right to try.

If he had, perhaps he wouldn't have had what he has now.

But even if Edward was willing to give everything to Theo, it remained to be seen whether Theo could hold onto it all.

A sharp glint flashed in Liam's eyes.

Benson drove to Sophie's apartment and took the elevator to her floor. He had barely rung the doorbell once, when the door swung open. Sophie, dressed in a delicate silk nightgown, immediately threw herself into his arms. .

"Benson, I thought you weren't coming. I was so scared just now." She sobbed

softly, her voice weak and pitiful, stirring compassion.

He looked at her in his arms and gently pushed her away. "You said there was a burglar in your house. Are you okay?"

She shook her head and spoke

softly. "I was mistaken. I must have left the door open during the day, and my neighbor's cat got into my home and stayed. I was already asleep when I heard noises in the living room. I thought it was a burglar and got so scared that I messaged you. Content Belongs to

"Later, I heard the cat meowing, gathered my courage, and went out to check. When I turned on the light, I saw it was just the cat. I was so relieved. My neighbor has already taken it back."

"Since everything's fine, you should get some rest. I'll head back now," Benson replied flatly after hearing her explanation. He turned to leave, but Sophie quickly wrapped her arms tightly around him from behind. Her soft body pressed against his.

"Benson, don't go. Stay with me, please? I was really scared just now. What if it had been a burglar who had broken in? What if they had killed me? Then, I would never get to see you again..."
