Begging for a Second Chance (Sienna Sloan and Jarred Sterling) novel Chapter 53

"Stop!"

Luna Lennox had run so fast she had lost one of her shoes.

She shoved aside the bodyguard blocking the way, shielding Sienna perfectly behind her. She held up her phone, pointing the camera straight at the people in the room.

"I'm broadcasting this globally! Thousands of people are watching your assault right now!

The viewer count is still climbing. Move one more muscle, and the entire Capital—hell, the whole world—will see the Sterling matriarch ordering a malicious attack!"

The two bodyguards froze instantly, their hands stalling mid-air with the stun batons. Their eyes darted nervously toward the older woman on the couch, caught in a dilemma.

But the older woman didn't even bat an eyelash. A contemptuous smirk curled her lips.

Her tone dripped with disdain and arrogance. "A livestream? You little brat, you must not realize that the Sterlings control the entire nation's network.

Forget your little broadcast. Even if you tore a hole in the sky, fixing it would just take one word from me."

Luna's wrist instinctively pulled back slightly.

Sienna immediately noticed Luna's completely blank screen, her fingers tightening into fists.

The older woman lifted her chin, her voice frigid. "Grab her phone and smash it."

A bodyguard lunged forward as Luna struggled desperately.

But the disparity in strength was too great. The phone was slammed onto the floor, the screen shattering into a thoroughly black, dead display.

Luna's face drained of color as she cast a guilty, panicked look back at Sienna.

Seeing the frantic terror in her friend's eyes, Sienna slightly raised her gaze, giving her a reassuring look.
