Chapter 559: Chapter 538: Husband, let’s ignore this shameless madman

Pfft!

You sure do talk a better game than you can sing!

Jaysen was about to speak when Sienna Harrison covered his mouth, "Honey, don’t waste time on him. I’ll handle it."

Deep in Sienna’s heart, she knew that Jaysen had done so much for her, giving her his heart and soul, caring and tolerating her. But this situation was something he shouldn’t and couldn’t handle.

She didn’t want the man she loved to fight over her with a man from her past after giving her everything. Sienna always believed that the key to this kind of competition between men was the woman. Her choice would determine the winner.

At her words, Jaysen froze, looked down at Sienna in his arms, and stared for a good three seconds. He didn’t open his mouth to speak. It was better to settle things while everyone was there, so there would be no future troubles.

Soon, a trace of sarcasm crossed Sienna’s radiant smile.

"I loved you, so when you didn’t want to marry me, you pushed me away. Your excuse was simple – you couldn’t afford to marry me, so you set me free. But now you find out that your own wife is worse off, and you want to marry me again because you can ’make me happy’? Theo Scott, who the hell do you think I am?"

"Did I look down on you for having less money? Or did I despise you for not being born into rich nobility? On the contrary, I was always worried that my status would bring you pressure. Tell me, what did I do to make you think you couldn’t afford to marry me? And now, what makes you think you can make me happy? The fact is, you’re just a secondhand good. You thought I might not be the best, and your status felt overwhelming. But now, since marrying a crude wife who disgraces you everywhere, you feel that having me would be better, right?"

Upon hearing this, Theo’s face turned paler and paler, his whole demeanor becoming more anxious. The feeling of completely losing Sienna haunted him. Her usually carefree voice had become cold and indifferent.

"If women compare themselves to other women, why don’t men do the same?"

Sienna shifted a little in Jaysen’s embrace, and he quickly noticed her discomfort. Changing his position, he made her more comfortable before hearing her sarcasm intensify. "Before, when I was with you, I didn’t think much of myself. But now that I’m with someone else, I realize she’s not as great as I am. It’s only natural for people to compare themselves to others. It wasn’t until I met Jaysen that I knew what a real man is like, what it means to be responsible, and what it means to be low-key."

Sienna took a deep breath after saying all this in one go, paused briefly, and continued, "It wasn’t until I met him that I realized not all wealthy nobles are no-good. In this world, there’s a man named Jaysen Smith who understands life, has character, and knows how to love a woman wholeheartedly. Even if I met him while I was still with you, I would have fallen in love with him. So, Theo Scott, don’t you dare tell me that you’re the only one who can bring me happiness. All you’ve brought me so far is pain!"

Jaysen stared as Sienna spoke her mind, her words spilling from her lips. There wasn’t much that he cared about, but the one thing he always wanted to hear from her was finally said, even if the listener wasn’t him. Hearing her say it was enough.

So she said that if she had met him while she and Theo were still together, she would have fallen in love with Jaysen. Did this mean she loved Jaysen and chose him now?

With this in mind, Jaysen felt his heart begin to race erratically, as if it would leap out of his chest at any moment.

"Madeline, I..." Theo tried to speak, but was at a loss for words. Every sentence Sienna had spoken was now etched into his heart, her rebuke searing. But it was too late for regret.

"You don’t need to say anything. I don’t want to hear it. Just take care of the woman you’ve married! By the way, let me make it clear – I can fall in love with Jaysen Smith now, which only means I didn’t love you as much as you thought. I was only unwilling to be dumped. If I truly loved you that much, how could I have fallen in love with another man so quickly?"

Boom!

The fortress Theo had built in his mind over the past few days came crashing down. He stood there, dumbfounded and unable to move, as if he had lost all sensation.

There was a finality to this farewell, a sense of utter failure.

She didn’t love him anymore?

He wasn’t Jaysen’s match to begin with. He only dared to compete with Jaysen because Sienna had once loved him for six years. But now she herself had told him that she didn’t love him anymore, and she even found a reason for it!

Theo Scott’s world was falling apart!

This feeling was not like the one he had experienced when he initiated the breakup.

"Honey, let’s not bother with this shameless lunatic. Let’s go!" Taking advantage of Theo’s temporary stupor, Sienna nudged Jaysen with her elbow to signal it was time to leave.

Jaysen nodded, carrying Sienna past the stupefied Theo blocking their path. No sooner had they stepped away when they heard Sienna speak again, making them pause. "Also, Theo, I don’t know how you found out about that day at the mall when your wife called the reporters to ambush me, causing my mother-in-law to witness that scene. But I want to tell you, I wasn’t groveling. I just wanted to make a good impression on my mother-in-law so that she’ll praise Jaysen for marrying a good wife and make him proud. I love him, so I’m willing to respect his family. So, Theo Scott, stop using my humility in front of my mother-in-law as evidence, she treats me really well!"
