Josef shot Calvin a look. “Dad, seriously? Sienna can’t come over unless there’s a reason?” Then he turned to Sienna with a grin. “Don’t mind my dad, Sienna. He’s getting old, a bit out of it these days. Come on, have a seat—I’ll get you something to drink.”
Calvin was speechless thinking to himself Should I thank this kid or knock some sense into him
Sienna don t take it the wrong way I m just worried you might be too busy Calvin said breaking into a fit of coughing
Sienna frowned quickly checking his condition After taking his pulse she said firmly Uncle Calvin you haven t used the Z S serum I gave you have you

Josef came out with the juice just in time to hear that, and with a loud smack, he slammed the glass down on the table. He moved too fast, and hot tea sloshed over, spilling onto Calvin’s arm. Calvin jerked from the burn and barked, “Josef, you little brat! Are you out to get me or what?”
Josef gave an awkward smile Sorry Dad Sienna you re right My dad hasn t used the Z S serum at all
The doctor said his body isn t fit for it and even claimed there might be something wrong with your serum He kept it for a full analysis saying he ll only let my dad use it after confirming it s safe
But come on it s the Z S serum worth over ten million dollars How could there possibly be a problem with it That doctor s just being paranoid
Josef thought Dad just trusts Dr Lambert way too much So what if they ve been friends forever That doesn t mean he s always right
Out of everyone Josef trusted Sienna the most She was the CEO of Hart Corporation no way she d ever hurt Calvin Besides who would use something that expensive to mess with someone

“It’s my fault,” Calvin said, coughing again. “Sienna, Leo Lambert is my friend. He just wants to analyze what’s in the serum. I’ll have him bring it over later.”
Sienna s brows furrowed a sharp glint in her eyes Uncle Calvin do you trust me
Calvin was taken a back then blurted out Of course Sienna I would never doubt you or any of you
Sienna’s eyes dimmed. “Why? Why do you trust me so much, Uncle Calvin? We’ve only met twice, haven’t we?”
Calvin gave a bitter smile, his eyes filled with a trace of sorrow and guilt. “Sienna, this may be your second time meeting me, but it’s not my second time seeing you. Ever since you were born, I’ve been secretly watching over you every year.”
The Bayer family had let Selina down, and that was something they could never make right. They tried to cover one lie with another, but in the end, they couldn’t change her resolve.
Uncle Calvin listen Sienna said If you trust me I ll be straight with you I can get you back on your feet
With a heavy thud, Josef fell to his knees in front of Sienna, eyes red with emotion. “Sienna, are you for real? If you can help my dad stand again, I’ll owe you for life–I’ll do whatever you ask, no matter what.”
Sienna hurried to pull him up No need for that Uncle Calvin your legs aren t completely beyond saving I can help you but you have to take the Z S serum Right now your body s in bad shape your heart isn t strong enough to support you
The 25 serum was a special drug that targets the heart, lungs, and even people’s cells. It was made from ultra–rare lifeforms that couldn’t even reproduce -basically, once they were gone, they were gone for good. That was why that drug cost a fortune.
Alright Sienna I promise I ll do as you say Calvin replied his tone resolute
Sienna glanced at Reno who pulled out some documents and set them on the table Uncle Calvin this is a partnership agreement with my company If you re interested you can sign it anytime

The relatives in the room instantly lit up with excitement Now that the Bayer family s crisis was finally resolved they knew they shouldn t stick around any longer One after another they quietly slipped away
Sienna there s barely any profit in this for you It just doesn t feel right for me to take advantage Calvin said shaking his head
Just let me do this for you Uncle Calvin Think of it as a little something from me Sienna replied
Winifred strode into the classroom in a black jacket hands shoved coolly in her pockets exuding an air of effortless swagger She tossed her backpack on to a desk and for a moment everyone just stared in shock
Then someone finally snapped out of it and called out Winifred
That was all it took the classroom instantly exploded with chatter Winifred No way it really is her
Someone said in shock No way how is she even here Wasn t she expelled I heard she turned into a total thug always up to no good she d do anything for cash
Another one nodded Word is she s even killed someone Like actually killed a person
People like her shouldn t even be allowed in school She ought to be arrested or something A girl shook her head
Another girl gossiped Last time I saw her she was hanging out with a whole group of guys Seriously how shameless can she get
The other students got alerted We need to get the teacher or the security guards someone needs to kick her out of here
They all showed looks of disapproval. “She’s way too dangerous! How can they even let her into the school?”
With a loud crash Winifred kicked over a desk and chair Shut the hell up all of you
The room fell dead silent not a single person daring to make a sound Then a girl in a white dress stood up
Sylvie barked Winifred you ve already been expelled You should know your place you re an outsider now
Trespassing on school grounds is a crime don t think I won t call the police right now
Look we were classmates once so let s not make this any uglier than it has to be Just leave on your own You don t belong here
She thought, ‘This is Avalore’s number one art academy–how could a delinquent like Winifred even be mentioned in the same breath as art? She doesn’t deserve to set foot here! The only real art prodigy is me!‘
