"Are you feeling guilty? Scared?" Sienna asked.


    Jane swallowed nervously and said, "Who wouldn''t be scared? Even if I have evidence, I''m still afraid of your boyfriend!"


    Sienna corrected her, "I''m married. Daniel is now my husband."


    Jane''s face turned pale. Feeling nervous, she took a deep breath.


    Sienna confidently said, "Jane, I''m very sure that you will lose. My husband is a police officer, his brother is a Defense General, and my best friend is a top researcher skilled in cyber forensics. "Any of them could easily uncover the evidence of you stealing my manuscript."


    Jane was sweating as she became increasingly anxious. She lowered her head and clenched her fists, lost in thought.


    Seeing that she was intimidated, Sienna asked, "Why did you sell the film rights of my book to Vivian''spany? When did you start colluding with her?"


    Jane smiled bitterly. She looked at Sienna and asked, "Are you trying to scare me?"


    "You can think of it that way. We''ll see each other in court."


    Jane was very nervous. After pondering for a moment, she calmly said, "You have powerful backing, but so do I."


    Sienna looked at her in confusion.


    Jane continued, "I have the celebrity Vivian, the billionaire Alex, and the entire Rowley Group on my side. So I''m not afraid of you."


    "Did you meet me just to say all this nonsense?"


    Jane was guilty from the start till now.


    Holding her bag, Sienna stood up and said, "See you in court."


    This was Jane''sst chance to redeem herself, but she remained obstinate and determined to fight to the end.


    On the day of the trial, Sienna was calm.


    Thewyer submitted a mountain of evidence, including expert analysis of the content''s structure, logic, differences in writing style, and story coherence. Based on that alone, Sienna had already won half the battle.


    They also presented theputer data extracted by the experts. Sienna had been working on the book for over six months longer than Jane.


    The trial was an easy win for Sienna.


    Facing a heftypensation, Jane panicked.


    As they left the courthouse, Jane looked dejected. Her editor had


    à up but was unable to act


    the situation, so she stormed off. so she stormed off.


    "Sienna," Jane called out to her. This time, she didn''t have her previous arrogance and confidence.


    As Sienna turned to look at her, Jane said remorsefully, "I''m sorry, Sienna."


    Sienna scoffed. If Jane had won thewsuit, she would never have heard the apology.


    "I don''t ept your apology," Sienna replied before leaving.


    Suddenly, Jane shouted, "Don''t you want to know when I started working with Vivian?"


    Sienna stopped in her tracks to listen.


    Jane continued, "I was already


    working with her when you were still dating Daniel in our hometown She


    paid me to tell her everything about you two."


    Sienna clenched her fists to suppress her anger.


    So, Jane had already betrayed her a long time ago.


    Sienna said coldly, "Jane, I never want to see you again."


    With that, she followed herwyer out of the courthouse.


    Sienna didn''t go home. She went straight to the police station


    because she missed Daniel sol
