Chapter 356 - This Is Serious!

Sierra\'s hands went cold on hearing that a call was once again coming, not from Jack but from the unknown number. "No baby… give muma the phone.."

"Oh, here it is, muma.." Ailey passed the phone back to her mother who was currently driving the car.

To pick the call up, Sierra parked the car in the street parking while sitting inside itself.

Taking a deep breath, her eyes went straight to the caller as she took a peek. \'The same man…\'

Oh god, why was she not surprised yet? Lifting up the call, she didn\'t utter a single thing by her hand, until the man spoke, "Seems like Mrs. Shen was very much scared? Hmm?"

"Not your business. And mind me, if you are trying to threaten me by my children\'s name, I will ruin your life! You will rot in the mansion and the cells which are way more deadly than anything…" Sierra\'s eyes shined with the aloof mist when she spoke in a much lower tone than her usual.

She was furious, scared, and somewhat mixed feelings that never settled inside her chest. Her heart asked her to yell at this man like a crazy woman.

Yet, thinking from her brain, she didn\'t want to scare her children like her.

"Hahahaha...Mrs. Shen, that\'s not fair. I was only intending to actually bond with your children but you never let me meet them.." A scoff left her lips at his words.

\'Bond? Which kind of bond is he talking about? Teaching my children how to use guns in this bonding?\' She really had to stop herself from rolling her eyes.

But at the same time, she knew that it is important to take the man\'s words too seriously. "Listen, I don\'t know who you are, but keep my children out of this. You?have your enmity with Jack, go and vent this on him."

"But your children are the heir of the same family business. If I kill him, won\'t the lineage be still continued even after that?" hearing this, Sierra\'s lips were pursed as she realized the matter of fact was them being no one else\'s but her dear husband\'s child.

\'So….it means that the man wants to remove them to make sure that no one survives from the family….?\' her mind struck on this possibility which made her hands turn chiller.

How was she supposed to accept this? No…she can\'t let her children fall into the victim of the mafia family...the same underworld which she hates from the bottom of her heart.

Her eyes lifted to see through the rear mirror, seeing Noah and Ailey talking happily. Yet, her heart clutched to see Ailey\'s expressions of happiness as her being the eldest.

The glimpses of the past appeared in her mind making goosebumps come on her hand, \'No..I can\'t let anything happen to these two…\'

No matter what, she can\'t imagine her life without these two bundles of joys whom she has raised from scratch. "Mister, trust me, this mom can go to any length for her children.

Her scary and aloof voice didn\'t bring any fear out of the man\'s heart. But she could sense that he had turned serious. The name laughed mockingly voice already disappeared with the deep silence falling by.

As she was anticipating him to not respond to her but then, she could hear him greet his teeth, "Let\'s see what you can do to save your children from me, Mrs. Shen.."

And immediately, the man hung up making Sierra\'s grip tighten on her phone. Slowly and steadily, she brought it down from her ears, where her clutch was powerful enough to break the phone into pieces. "He is dangerous…" She realized it too late.

A strong crumbled expression plastered on her face where it was difficult to neglect everything happening around her.

For her children, she can\'t let them go into the world which she wants to escape. No..no matter what she has to go through for the same.

Keeping all her respect and fury aside, she took a deep breath. Closing her eyes she felt her heart already beating to a higher rate to which Sierra finally made a decision of her life.

In the end, she took her phone to dial a specific number before it was answered by a man, "Hello?"

"Charles….let us meet. I\'m waiting in the restaurant down, near your company," she told him with confidence as her gaze shined with determination and the power of protection.

For the next few seconds, she waited for him to respond while there was nothing but deep silence that layered continuously.

He didn\'t answer back, making her heart feel the twists already. \'Will he deny?\' her mind told her that he won\'t.

When she was on the edge of losing the possible hopes in her mind, did she hear, "Alright? I will be down in the next twenty minutes. Be on time.."

…..

After twenty minutes.

Sierra was sitting at the table with Charles opposite her. With her hands entangled into one, her eyelids were down where she was at the loss of words.

On the other side, Charles only stared at the lady that sat across the table with her head down.

His narrowed eyes surveyed through her confined figure which gave him doubt."Why did you want to meet me..the man who actually gave you a clear-cut threat to ruin your life?"

"I..I.." Sierra\'s lips parted but no words came out. Something was continuously crawling under her skin making her feel uneasy.

But to suppress the same, she took a deep breath before her eyes went to the waiter passing by. "Um…can you give us two cups of coffee?"

"Sure, ma\'am." The lady bowed and left making Sierra turn her head again in Charles\' direction.

"I want your help…" As if her statement brought a fake chuckle out of his lips when he shook his head, "Help? From me? Are you kidding me, Mrs. Shen?"

"I wish I was but Charles…this is serious."
