So, all these years, she has been working at Axel Yates’ company?
And the dark horse of the French branch, which Axel Yates has always been proud of, is Sienna Quinn?
"President Yates, it sounds like the French company has nothing to do with you," Sienna Quinn teased with a smile.
"How can that be the same? I only visit the French branch at most four times a year; this is my main base. Welcome back!" Axel Yates said, extending his hand to shake Sienna’s.
But before Sienna could extend her hand, a large hand reached out first and shook Axel’s: "So, Miss Quinn is a talent nurtured by President Yates."
"President Lawson also knows our Sienna?" Axel seemed oblivious to the undercurrent in Landon Lawson’s words, maintaining a calm demeanor, even with a trace of undisguised pride in his eyes.
Nurturing such an effective talent as Sienna Quinn was naturally very gratifying for Axel Yates. He hadn’t expected Landon Lawson, who usually paid no attention to the world, to have an impression of Sienna Quinn.
"Our Sienna" — those words made Landon Lawson feel annoyed once again.
Sienna was clearly his wife!
He tightened his grip, turning to look at Sienna, pronouncing each word clearly, "Not just acquaintances, perhaps Miss Quinn could tell President Yates how we know each other?"
She chased him for ten years and then left just like that. Was her affection for him over those ten years fake?
He didn’t believe it!
Axel sensed something off, glancing at Sienna with bewilderment.
Sienna lifted the corners of her mouth, smiling slightly, "President Lawson has quite a good memory, but I’m sorry, I only recall not seeing President Lawson for five years and really can’t remember how we met back then."
Her words slapped Landon Lawson in the face with a resounding snap.
Not only did she sever ties with Landon, but she also subtly mocked him for remembering something so clearly that she considered insignificant.
It was the first time Landon Lawson discovered this woman could be so eloquent and sharp-tongued.
And before he could speak, Sienna continued, "President Yates, if you have something to discuss with President Lawson, I’ll head to the private room first; probably all the company’s employees have arrived. Assistant Carter, I don’t know which floor or room number. Could you guide me?"
After saying this, Sienna didn’t care about everyone’s reaction, turning around and heading toward the elevator.
"Then President Yates, I’ll escort President Quinn up first." Danielle Carter finally sensed something was off, carefully saying this before picking up her pace to catch up with Sienna, who was already walking inside.
"Today I’m hosting a welcome dinner for important work partners in the company. President Lawson, forgive me for not keeping you company. Perhaps another time we can have a drink together. I’m quite interested in how President Lawson and Sienna Quinn became acquainted." Since it was an internal company gathering, Axel Yates couldn’t ask Landon Lawson to join, so he bade farewell and followed his assistant as they caught up with Sienna’s group.
Axel Yates’ deliberate final comment made Landon Lawson’s face look even more grim.
Alright, Sienna, you’ve done well!
Leaving without cause five years ago, and now, upon returning, embarrassing him.
"Stephen..." Vera Yates, standing aside, naturally noticed the shift in Landon Lawson’s mood, feeling an unsettling unease.
She had always thought Sienna was simply an annoying presence to Landon Lawson, but now, it didn’t seem that way.
They say, for men, there are two ways of loving someone: either you say nothing or you go all out to win them.
In the five years Sienna was gone, Landon Lawson never mentioned her name, and if others did, he would fly into a rage and have them shut up. Eventually, no one dared to mention her in his presence.
She thought Landon Lawson was merely trying to avoid hearing her name because she embarrassed him, but now, it seemed that wasn’t the case.
So, he avoided the topic before, but from now on, will he...
Thinking of this, Vera Yates’ heart tightened sharply.
No, that’s impossible.
Sienna Quinn absolutely cannot be allowed to get Stephen back, absolutely not.
Landon Lawson was hers, the position of Mrs. Lawson could only be hers!
