Sure enough, the crowd's attitude toward Sienna shifted instantly into open hostility.
A fake heiress who stole someone else's parents and fiancé—and left the real daughter to suffer out in the world?
Just existing was annoying.
Bowen fought back anyway. "Don't listen to her lies! Sienna's the innocent one!"
"Everything that was hers got stolen. Do you have any idea how much that hurts?"
Someone let out a cold laugh. "Anybody remember that famous line from that show? ‘She only lost a leg, but I lost love.'"
The crowd burst out laughing.
The same person added, "So what you're saying is: the real daughter only lost her parents, her childhood, and a fortune... but your precious little flower lost something that never belonged to her in the first place?"
This time the laughter was even louder.
Bowen flushed red, completely boxed in. Sienna hadn't expected the audience to hate her this much.
She threw out, "You're all unbelievable," then ran off crying.
Bowen scrambled after her. "Sienna—wait!"
Watching them retreat, Maeve's lips curved into a wicked little smile.
When no one was looking, she tipped two thin needles out of a pen and flicked them toward the pair.
A second later, the two of them went down hard—like they'd tripped over their own feet—face-first on the floor.
And it wasn't a gentle fall. They hit so badly their faces bruised instantly, teeth clacking loose.
The crowd didn't pity them. They howled with laughter.
Naomi shot Maeve a look that clearly asked: your work?
Maeve answered with a look back: you guessed it.
They shared a grin—no words needed.
The floor manager, afraid the situation would explode, hurried to have servers help them up and asked if they needed an ambulance.
