At that exact moment, Sierra–who had finally managed to get a little sleep–was jolted awake by a call from Mateo.
“Sierra, something’s happened.”
Her eyes flew open.
Chase was still unaware of what had happened to Susie. He’d been busy these past few days dealing with internal affairs in the Wynn family. Since Susie had been spending time at the old estate, he assumed she was still there.
When he got Sierra’s call, panic immediately set in. Thankfully, Sierra kept her voice calm and steady as she reassured him:
“I’m already here. Don’t worry, everything’s under control.”
By then, Sierra had already arrived outside Victor’s residence with her people.
After what had just happened with Susie, the security around the place had become even tighter.
Sierra stated her identity. Victor refused to see her.
Sierra’s tone turned icy. “Hand over Ms. Autumn.”
She hadn’t come alone–several people stood behind her, making the tension spike instantly.
Just then, Maddox arrived, having rushed over after getting word of the situation. When he saw Sierra, he paused before walking over to her.
“Ma’am, I was informed you brought people to threaten Mr. Victor” he said carefully. “Please don’t make this difficult for us.”
As part of Victor’s security detail, Maddox was responsible for ensuring Victor’s safety–he couldn’t let anything happen to him. But facing Sierra, his confidence wavered.
Sierra looked him dead in the eye. “I’m not here to threaten Mr. Victor. But my mother is inside. I’m simply asking him to return her.”
Maddox’s eyes flickered at the word “mother.” Now he understood–Susie.
He’d already heard Susie had come to see Victor and that Victor had been injured. And now Sierra was here to take her away. But there was no way Victor would agree.
After a moment’s thought, Maddox said, “Mrs. Wynn assaulted Mr. Victor. I’m afraid we can’t let you take her.”

“You can’t let me take her?” Sierra replied coldly. “Then at least bring her out.”

“If she assaulted someone, then let the legal process take its course. Or what–are you planning on handling it with private punishment?”
“Are we now allowing a foreigner to take justice into his own hands against a citizen on our soil?”
Her words were sharp, her tongue even sharper. Maddox found himself tongue–tied.
He hadn’t expected Sierra to be so articulate–and forceful.
Finally, he said. “I’ll go in and see what I can do.”
Then, lowering his voice, he added, “I’ll try my best–but no guarantees.”
Victor was furious. It wouldn’t be easy to get Susie out.
Sierra nodded once. “You’ve got ten minutes.”
Every minute wasted meant more danger for Susie. Sierra had already made other arrangements. If it came down to it, she would take her mother by force–and head straight to the old estate. She wanted to see who dared storm the Wynn family’s home to take her back.
Maddox braced himself and stepped inside. The first thing he saw was blood–everywhere. His eye twitched. He whispered a few urgent questions to the guards and was relieved to hear that Susie was still alive.
Inside, a doctor had just finished bandaging Victor’s wound. The man looked paler and weaker than usual.
He was getting old. Losing this much blood had clearly taken a toll.
When Victor saw Maddox, his expression darkened. “Out.”
“Mr. Victor,” Maddox began carefully, “you can’t be the one to deal with Susie.”
“You know who she is.”
“If this escalates, no one will be able to clean up the mess.”
Victor raised his eyes slowly. “Are you threatening me?”
“Of course not. I’m just explaining the situation,” Maddox said.
“Jonathan might be in a tough spot right now, but the Wynn family still stands. And the higher–ups haven’t decided to break ties with them yet
“She nearly killed me.”
Victor’s voice was icy. The rage bubbled just beneath the surface. What enraged him most wasn’t just that she’d stabbed him–but that it had been someone he never even considered a threat.
Maddox was speechless. He didn’t know the exact details, but he knew Susie’s personality. She must have been pushed too far. And this likely had everything to do with Jonathan.
