Chapter 299: Chapter 299: Julian Forrester: I’m the One Who’s Unworthy of Sienna Everett

Sienna Everett?

H-how... how is that possible!

How could fate play such a cruel joke on him!

Morgan Everett refused to believe it. His eyes darted around the conference room, searching. ’There must be someone else in here. Is Julian Forrester calling some other woman his wife?’

But after a full scan, he saw Sienna Everett was the only woman in the vast conference room. Julian Forrester had been talking to Sienna Everett!

"Th-this... How can this be... Did we mishear him just now? Yes, we must have misheard him!" Sheila Whitaker stood there, dumbfounded. Her expression was a mixture of dazed shock and complexity as she even began to suspect that she and Morgan Everett had simply misheard what was said from outside the conference room.

The next moment, however, they heard Keith Sterling ask Julian Forrester with a devil-may-care look, "Bro, were those two just standing outside the conference room door, eavesdropping on you and Sis-in-law?"

Sis-in-law...

Everyone knew about Keith Sterling and Julian Forrester’s relationship. For Keith to call someone "Sis-in-law," she had to be a woman with an extremely official relationship with Julian Forrester.

Before they came in, Sienna Everett and Julian Forrester were the only two people in the conference room.

Eavesdropping on Julian Forrester and Sienna Everett...

Eavesdropping on his bro and sis-in-law...

Keith Sterling’s "Sis-in-law" was directed at Sienna Everett!!

Morgan Everett’s vision went black. He almost fainted on the spot, feeling like he was about to lose his mind.

’Sienna Everett and Julian Forrester are married? When did they get married? How could he, her own father, not know about something so huge?’

Amid his chaotic thoughts, Morgan Everett suddenly remembered something. The day Sienna Everett disowned the Everett Family and left, it seemed to have been a car from the Forresterer Family that came to pick her up...

At the time, he had suspected Sienna Everett might have some connection to the Forresterer Family. Now it seemed it wasn’t just *some* connection—it was a connection with the Forresterer Family’s current head, Julian Forrester himself!

No wonder Julian Forrester treated Sienna Everett so exceptionally, his attitude toward her completely different from how he treated others...

No wonder when Isabelle Sutton was kidnapped last night, Julian Forrester had personally come to the Everett Family home to find Sienna Everett. And when he had proposed a marriage alliance between Shannon and Julian Forrester, Julian had coldly thrown back the words, "You’re insulting me"...

In an instant, Morgan Everett’s heart sank to the depths of his stomach, and a cold sweat trickled down his back.

He never would have imagined that this biological daughter he had disdained and disliked would have such an intimate relationship with Julian Forrester, the very man he had been trying so desperately to curry favor with. They were even married...

And last night, he had been so fanciful and ridiculously foolish as to propose a marriage between Julian Forrester and Shannon...

If he had proposed a marriage between Julian Forrester and Sienna Everett back then, he might have even left a good impression on Julian...

He had truly bet on the wrong horse!

It was obvious to anyone with a brain that there was no way Julian Forrester would ever be interested in Shannon!

Morgan Everett was now so full of regret he wanted to raise his hand and slap himself!

Meanwhile, when Sienna Everett saw Morgan Everett and Sheila Whitaker enter, she showed no surprise. She had expected this, figuring the two of them would show up sooner or later.

However, she hadn’t expected them to find out about her relationship with Julian Forrester.

’But it doesn’t matter. What’s seen is seen.’

Julian Forrester fastened the small, beaded flower on Sienna Everett’s shoe, then stood up with calm composure. Even with so many people present, Sienna Everett was still the most important person to him.

Seeing how Julian Forrester cherished and doted on Sienna Everett, placing her on a pedestal, Morgan Everett’s expression instantly changed. He put on a fawning, sycophantic smile and hurried forward.

"Sienna, why didn’t you tell the family sooner about something as huge as you and Mr. Forrester getting married? Mr. Forrester, there’s no need for you to trouble yourself by bending down for a trivial matter like fixing a shoe. Just let this girl do it herself!"

He then turned to Sienna Everett, adding, "You silly girl, making Mr. Forrester fix your shoe for you. Aren’t you being a bit too spoiled and thoughtless!"

Upon hearing this, Julian Forrester’s indifferent brows knitted together instantly. He shot Morgan Everett a look as cold as a frozen tundra. "Is it your place to comment?"

Morgan Everett’s scalp tightened in fear, and he immediately stopped his prattling. He had intended to flatter them but was met with a blunt rebuke, his face turning pale and green with embarrassment.

Keith Sterling was utterly speechless. ’I really want to spit in this Morgan Everett’s face!’ he thought.

’What does he mean, "no need to trouble yourself by bending down"? It’s obvious my bro enjoys taking care of Sierra and spoiling her rotten.’

’More importantly, my bro can’t stand it when The Everett belittle Sienna Everett!’

’Morgan Everett just prodded my bro’s biggest sore spot. Everything he said, both explicitly and implicitly, looked down on Sierra and spoke ill of her. How could my bro not be angry?!’

Morgan Everett wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said with a sycophantic, shameless smile, "Mr. Forrester, you’ve misunderstood. I didn’t mean to criticize Sienna just now. I’m just a bit overwhelmed. Given our Everett Family’s circumstances, for Sienna to be able to marry you, she is marrying up, and so is our Everett Family! That’s why I don’t want you to spoil her too much!"

After hearing this, Julian Forrester’s expression grew even darker than before. An intimidating chill emanated from his brow, and his gaze became glacial. "Sienna Everett already disowned the Everett Family. Her being with me has what to do with your Everett Family?"

Morgan Everett’s face stiffened, but he could only stammer, not daring to retort.

After speaking, Julian Forrester took Sienna Everett’s hand. The icy frost that had covered his features a second ago melted away as if touched by a spring breeze. "Even if someone is marrying up, it is I who is marrying up to Sienna."

Morgan Everett was just: ???!!!!!!

’What did I just hear?!’

’Julian Forrester said he was the one marrying up to Sienna Everett?!!’

Keith Sterling and Evan Shelby, on the other hand, looked completely unfazed, as if this was nothing out of the ordinary.

’Hearing that kind of talk isn’t surprising at all.’

Sienna Everett blinked once, then blinked again.

As for Sheila Whitaker, she was in such a state of shock that her brain seemed to have shut down. She stood there dumbly, mouth agape, with a completely comical expression on her face.

’A man of Julian Forrester’s status and position was actually willing to say something like that...’

’But on second thought, the achievements and honors Sienna Everett had gained since leaving the Everett Family were truly dazzling.’

’Even in terms of family background, Sienna Everett’s grandfather was the renowned Victor Tate, whose status was no less than the Forresterer Family’s.’

’The only thing holding Sienna Everett back was the Everett Family...’

As Sheila Whitaker thought of this, her feelings became incredibly complicated. In the past, she only had eyes for Shannon, treating her like her own biological daughter, and had deluded herself into ignoring all of Sienna Everett’s many excellent qualities...

’It used to be her who looked down on Sienna Everett, but now, in a complete reversal, the Everett Family had become the ones dragging Sienna Everett down...’

After hearing Julian Forrester’s words, Morgan Everett’s shock was beyond description. Julian Forrester truly cherished Sienna Everett to the extreme.

’But this was good, too. If Julian Forrester treasured Sienna Everett so much, then wouldn’t he, as Julian Forrester’s father-in-law, also benefit from the association?’

’And the Everett Family, wouldn’t they rise to prominence along with her?’

’And the matter of him and Sheila going to jail—Julian Forrester could resolve that easily with a single word!’

Once Morgan Everett figured out the stakes, his smile immediately turned fawning as he looked at Sienna Everett. "Sienna, you’re really something else. How could you not even tell your own father about something as huge as marrying Mr. Forrester?"
