Chapter 158
Chapter 158
Well, Sienna had it coming. If it hadn’t been for Keith’s help, she would’ve been the one behind bars right now.
So no, Autumn didn’t feel sorry for her. The only thing Julian hadn’t expected was that it was his own sister who had set everything in motion.
He had planned to stand up for Sienna, but in the end, he was the one who handed her over on a silver platter.
Looked like Julian had his hands full now.
With that thought, Autumn set down her phone and quickly returned to work.
That afternoon, while delivering some documents, she unexpectedly ran into Hector in the elevator.
When the doors opened, both of them were briefly stunned. Autumn quickly stepped to the side.
Hector strode in and now the small elevator held only the two of them.
He moved to stand in front of her, facing her in the corner, and said, “On Mom’s memorial day, Luna hit her head. I didn’t have my phone, and neither did our brother.
“By the time I got a phone, it was already evening. I figured everything was over by then, so I didn’t come p>
He’d always felt a little guilty about that day, and seeing Autumn now, he felt the need to explain.
He didn’t think they were at fault-things had been urgent. There was no way they could have ignored Luna lying there like that.
He assumed Autumn would understand. After all, no one could have seen it coming.
But Autumn didn’t even glance at him, as if he were a stranger speaking to someone else entirely.
Seeing her like that, Hector grew impatient. “Autumn, I’m explaining what happened that day. What’s with this attitude?
“Or what, are you just cold-blooded now? Secretly glad Luna got hurt? Gloating inside p>
He had already lowered himself to give her an explanation, yet she still acted so heartless.
Unbelievable.
Watching her like this, Hector felt his anger boil. Was this really their once sweet, obedient little sister?
At those words, Autumn finally lifted her gaze, her eyes sharp as knives as they swept over him.
“Yeah, that’s right. I hope she dies sooner. Does that answer satisfy you, Mr. Lewis p>
In their eyes, Luna was perfect in every way, and she was the odd one out.
Since they were nothing but strangers now, there was no need to show them any courtesy.
Hector’s face turned red with rage as he shouted, “You actually cursed Luna to die? How could you be so vicious?
“And I’m your brother-your second brother! Is this how you speak to your elders? What happened to your manners p>
Every time he saw Autumn, she had a way of making his blood boil, just like now.
He’d tried to explain things calmly, and yet she either ignored him or said something so cutting it could kill.
She was completely ungrateful.
“Brother? You think you deserve that title p>

Autumn curled her lips into a cold, mocking smile. “I told you before-if you skipped Mom’s memorial again, we were done.
“And now you’re trying to act all close? Don’t you think that’s a little pathetic? Why don’t you go down and ask Mom yourself if she’d forgive you p>
At the mention of their mother’s memorial, Autumn’s eyes reddened slightly. If not for her, she wouldn’t have wasted another
word on them.
She had said everything that needed to be said, and Hector had treated it like nothing.
Even their grandmother had shown up.
But her two blood-related brothers? It was like they were dead.
Put all those “coincidences” together, and it stopped being coincidence.
They were just too blind and too heartless to see the truth.
Hector’s chest heaved with fury as he glared at her. “Autumn, I’ve already explained everything to you. What more do you want from me p>
