A Surprising Twist of Fates (Sierra and Theo)

The entire Gray Group was under Theo's control. Under his leadership, it had grown into an empire beyond the reach of most. His methods and business acumen were second to none-even Edward couldn't compare.

A man like that was truly remarkable.

If Sierra were obedient, marrying Theo would indeed be the best option.

But the problem was that she wasn't obedient. She had grown defiant, completely impossible to control.

"If Sierra marries Theo, she'll become even more unmanageable with him backing her up!" William's voice was cold as he shot Vera a vicious glare. "Don't even think about letting her marry Theo."

Sierra's birth certificate was still in their possession. As long as they had it, any marriage she entered into had to go through them.

Vera lowered her head and remained silent.

Seeing her like this, William suddenly reached out, gripped her chin, and forced her to look up. "I'm warning you not to have any ideas. You do as I say. Sierra does as I say. Do you understand?"

Vera saw the blatant warning and malice in his eyes. Her voice trembled as she replied, "Y-Yes, William, I wouldn't do anything to betray you. Xavier is your son, and you are my only support.

"Don't worry, I will persuade Cee. She won't go against you anymore. But please, can you promise me you won't hurt her anymore?"

"Hmph, that depends on whether she listens."

William let out a cold snort, then pulled her phone from inside her clothes. He yanked her collar open, exposing the bruises covering her body.

"William "

Vera struggled, trying to resist, but he held her wrists in an iron grip. He took a few pictures of the injuries on her body before shoving her away roughly.

"Let's see if she is really that heartless." With a sneer, he sent the photos to Sierra.

In the hospital room, Sierra heard her phone buzz. She picked it up and opened the message—what she saw made her instantly pale. Her hands clenched into fists.

She immediately dialed the number.

"William, you bastard! How could you do this to my mother?"

"You didn't listen to me. Did you think I was just making empty threats? Sierra, don't think that just because Mr. Gray Senior is looking out for you, or that Theo helped you once, you can escape my control. The one thing I hate most is disobedience."

Sierra's grip on the phone tightened, and her expression grew darker and darker.

"Do as I say get Benson out of there and marry him. Don't even think about anything else. A man like Theo would never be interested in you. Your birth certificate is with me. Whoever I tell you to marry, that's who you'll marry."

William issued his final command and hung up.noveldrama

Sierra hurled her phone onto the bed furiously.

"This is absolutely shameless! Cee, let's call the police!" Madison, seething with rage, urged her from the side.

Sierra shook her head, saying in a frustrated voice, "It's useless. I've tried before. The police come, ask a few questions, and that's it. William is ruthless and cunning he never leaves evidence.

"And my mother is too afraid to testify against him. Even if we report it, nothing will come of it. It'll only make him angrier, and my mother will suffer even more."

"Then what do we do? Are you just going to let him control your life forever? Who knows what else a greedy man like him will force you to do?"
