Fake Heiress Real Trouble (Sienna) novel Chapter 151

Sienna buried herself in her meal, totally ignoring the showy peacock putting on a display across the table.

Mason also knew just when to dial it back.

Sometimes, playing up the charm only worked if one knew when to hold off–too much and the whole act lost its punch.

For a while, the only sound in the room was the gentle clink of dishes and utensils.

Sienna had a bigger appetite than most girls–she almost demolished everything on the table all by herself.

Mason quietly clocked which dishes Sienna had wiped clean.

When Sienna set down her knife and fork and started to stand up and clear the dishes, Mason reached out to stop her.

“You’ve had a busy day, Your Majesty. Let your loyal servant handle these trivial chores,” Mason said with a gentle grin.

Before Sienna could react, Mason’s broad hand landed squarely on top of hers, taking her by surprise.

And from this angle…

The collar of Mason’s bathrobe hung open just enough to offer a teasing glimpse of his chest.

His enticing fair skin was softly wrapped in a hazy glow by the warm lights.

A flash of red.

It hit Sienna’s vision out of nowhere, stopping her cold.

Sienna paused for a short while.

Her raven lashes trembled, and her clear eyes opened wide in stunned disbelief.

She quickly pulled her hand away from his, turned on her heel, and hurried off. “Thanks, I’ll head back to my room now!” she called out as she made her escape.

Mason watched her leave without a second thought, then lowered his gaze to his own hand.

Her gentle warmth still lingered in his palm.

He absently rubbed his fingers together, a doting smile slowly curving his lips.

He pulled his bathrobe closed and tied the belt back with deliberate care, a smug little smile lingering on his lips.

Honestly, he’d spent ages loitering around the kitchen, staging a whole runway just to show off his physique…

‘Not bad at all, really, he thought.

At least, from Sienna’s reaction, she clearly liked what she saw, he figured.

‘Guess I just leveled up on the road to winning her heart, Mason thought to himself.

Chapter 151

Meanwhile, back in her room, Sienna felt a lot more refreshed.

She buried herself at her desk once again, fine–tuning the details of her custom design draft.

This time, the creative process lit a spark in her–one she hadn’t felt in ages.

After finishing her draft, Sienna found herself still brimming with inspiration.

Ideas were pouring out of her–she barely paused before jumping into the next project.

Without missing a beat, she snatched up her pen and let it dance across the paper, knocking out a new design for Yara Bloom in a single burst of creative energy.

Yara Bloom was in a bind–their inventory was running dangerously low, and even one day of shutting their doors could spark chaos across the entire fashion scene.

Letting Yara Bloom actually close just wasn’t an option.

It wasn’t until dawn started peeking over the horizon that Sienna finally finished organizing all her design drafts and fired them off to Mavis, who was practically glued to her screen, desperate for results.

After pulling an all–nighter, Sienna had finally gotten everything done.

She didn’t even bother to wash up before crashing face–first onto her bed, completely wiped out.

When she finally woke up again, it was already noon.

Blinding sunlight streamed through the wide–open floor–to–ceiling windows, illuminating the whole room.

Sienna rubbed her throbbing temples and glanced at her phone.

Sure enough, there was an encrypted message from Titan, sent two hours ago.

Titan: [Boss, the big fish has taken the bait! Kagutsuchi’s Black Python has set off. From the looks of it, he’s already plotting his infiltration route. He’ll definitely cross into Aurathen by tomorrow night at the latest. We’re on standby.]

Sienna narrowed her eyes, a cold smile curling at her lips.

‘Black Python is even more impatient than I figured,‘ Sienna mused.

She chuckled softly.

‘Well, that works for me,‘ Sienna thought.

The sooner she settled this mess, the faster she’d finally get her peace–and make her way back to the Cooper family.

Staying under the same roof as that shameless fox was just asking for trouble.

But just thinking about Mason, Sienna’s mind couldn’t help but wander.

Suddenly, last night’s scene replayed in her head.

Mason’s warm hand on hers, his bathrobe thrown wide open, showing off all that tantalizing skin.

The scene she’d worked so hard to forget came crashing back–Mason’s bathrobe, his hand, all of it, right front and center in her mind again. ‘Ugh, why now?‘ Sienna thought, exasperated.

She rubbed her face with both hands, determined to get herself under control, then stood up and hurried to the bathroom.

‘Only one thing for it–I need a full–body wash, Sienna grumbled to herself.

‘Maybe scrubbing myself head to toe will finally stop my brain from running wild!‘ she thought, a little desperate.

After a quick shower, Sienna just gave her hair a quick towel dry and walked out of her room, still sporting damp, messy

hair.

She was taken aback the moment she stepped into the living room–there was a whole commotion going on.

Ben was busy wheeling in line after line of portable display racks from outside.

Anne was right there beside Ben, lending a hand.

Sienna glanced outside.

‘Whoa, Sienna thought to herself.

There was a massive delivery truck parked out front.

Ben was hauling display racks from the truck and rolling them into the living room one after another.

The racks were loaded with clothes, pants, and bags–so many dazzling options it made Sienna’s head spin.

Those sharp cuts and unique designs…

‘Wait a second, why do these all look so familiar?‘ Sienna wondered to herself, frowning in confusion.

And with every new rack they wheeled in, the display just got crazier and more over–the–top. ‘Seriously, how much stuff is there?‘ Sienna wondered.

The living room was getting so packed, one could barely even find a place to stand.

When Anne saw Sienna step out, she greeted her with a big smile. “Miss Cooper, you’ve got to come see this! Mr. Brown had Ben haul over all this stuff just for you, bright and early. He heard how much you love Yara Bloom, so he went all out- turned the whole living room into your personal pop–up closet! Take a look, do you like it?”

As this place had to stay super private, just Anne and Ben worked here–no one else was allowed in.

They’d been busting their tails since sunrise, making run after run to set everything up.

‘Yara Bloom?‘ Sienna was confused.

She couldn’t help frowning, totally caught off guard.

She stared at all those racks practically taking over half the living room, overflowing with Yara Bloom’s latest drops–and even some ultra–rare collector pieces she’d only ever seen in fashion magazines.

For a moment, she was completely speechless.

‘So… Sienna thought, trying to piece everything together.

“That ultimate whale–the one who quietly bought out Yara Bloom’s entire stock…

‘Was that Mason?‘ Sienna wondered.
