Chapter 457: Chapter 458: Cynthia Leland Wants to Have a Child With Sixth Master

She didn’t like children.

In her mind, children were just the byproducts of a man and woman making love, something that shouldn’t exist.

Her gaze fell on Adrian Desmond, whose dazzling face made women’s hearts flutter. She thought that if she could have such a cute daughter with Adrian, it wouldn’t be too bad.

Her eyes unreservedly expressed her admiration for Adrian, her hand, with its black nail polish, itching to touch his well-defined face... She really liked Adrian, but this man didn’t seem interested in her...

Cynthia Leland glanced at the cold-faced woman across from her and thought to herself: What good is a beautiful woman if she can’t satisfy a man in bed? She won’t be able to keep him anyway.

Once Adrian slept with her, he would know her worth, and he wouldn’t be able to leave her.

Adrian didn’t notice the woman fantasizing about him.

His gaze followed his daughter, who was hopping about in her kindergarten uniform: a navy-blue blazer, a red plaid pleated skirt, white knee-high socks, black shoes, and a yellow hat adorned with the kindergarten emblem.

"Curly, don’t jump around like that. You just ate, and it’s not good for your health," Adrian advised.

Curly, holding Kiki’s hand, suddenly turned her head and made a face at her father. Adrian chuckled, and Curly laughed too. It was a scene filled with love.

"Adrian, you and your daughter have such a great relationship. I’m so envious. When I was little, my dad was always busy with work, and I hardly saw him more than a few times a year."

With her mother having passed away early and her father engrossed in his career, Cynthia Leland had spent her childhood with servants and a Nanny. Her father remained a blurry figure in her childhood memories.

Only after his daughter was out of sight did Adrian shift his attention back. "Miss Leland, please call me Sixth Master. We’re not that close yet."

"Sixth Master sounds so old. How about I call you brother? Or oppa... Is that okay...?"

Overhearing them, Sienna Johnson got goosebumps. Cynthia Leland, a thirty-year-old woman, imitating a young girl from a Korean drama—it’s so jarring!

Adrian, likewise, felt goosebumps rise and became very uneasy. "Miss Leland, if you’re here to ask about the skeleton, just contact Aiden Howard directly. He’s responsible for that matter."

Trying to get rid of Cynthia, Adrian didn’t want to exchange another word with this woman whose gaze was so brazen.

"Oppa, Aiden Howard is so fierce, and I don’t like him..."

Sienna felt a wave of revulsion, and her stomach churned; it seemed not only she was uncomfortable, but her son was too. Just then, her phone rang, and she said, "I’ll take this call."

Cynthia couldn’t wait for this eyesore to leave, giving her some private time with Adrian.

"Mhm." Adrian’s gaze lingered on Sienna as she left, the love in his eyes for her impossible to hide. Cynthia watched, seething with anger.

"Is Sienna pregnant?"

With Sienna gone, Cynthia became even bolder, practically ready to strip and offer herself to him.

"Clear your mind of those images, or I’ll make you regret it for the rest of your life!"

With Sienna gone, Adrian no longer had to feign gentleness or manners. He revealed his bloodthirsty side.

"When a wife is pregnant, a man is most likely to cheat... I just want to tell you, if you have any... needs, I can..." Cynthia said, laying it all out.

"You can what?" Adrian laughed coldly.

Cynthia shivered and didn’t dare continue. Adrian stared at the wanton woman, feeling nothing but intense disgust.

"Go tell your father that I’ll send the skeleton over in the next few days, and make sure he keeps his promise!"

"..."

"Also, tell him that he’s already old! This world no longer belongs to him!"

The world Adrian inhabited was one of the strong; only the strongest could stand at the top of the Pyramid. Master Leland was old now, a relic to be relegated to the bottom, merely a stepping stone.

"Go back, the Johnson Family doesn’t welcome you! Don’t come back again!" Adrian said coldly.

"Adrian, I really like you. Can you give me a chance? Don’t worry, I won’t disrupt your family. I’m willing to be your mistress..." Seeing Adrian about to leave, Cynthia knew if she didn’t speak now, she’d lose her chance.

For some time, Cynthia had been trying to engineer "chance" encounters with Adrian, but he seemed to anticipate her every move, giving her no opportunity. She hadn’t managed to see him even once.

If she hadn’t come to the Johnson Family residence early this morning, she probably wouldn’t have seen Adrian at all.

She had never been so drawn to a man; it was as if she were bewitched.

"Get out!"

Adrian stood up and left without giving Cynthia a second glance.

"Adrian..."

When Sienna returned from her call, she saw Adrian leaving and Cynthia watching him with a look of longing. Looks like I missed quite a show, she thought.

...

During the morning rush hour, traffic was, as usual, at a standstill.

In the car, however, Sienna didn’t seem worried at all. She sat there, repeatedly turning her head to look at Adrian and smile, until he couldn’t stand it anymore.

"Have flowers sprouted on my face? Why are you staring at me?" Adrian asked. He knew Sienna too well; she was undoubtedly amused by his predicament earlier.

"Sixth Master seems to be in a bad mood."

She’s asking when she already knows the answer! Adrian thought. "Being fantasized about by an older woman—it’d be a miracle if I were in a good mood."

"Oh, come on, she’s not that old! And she called you ’oppa’..." Sienna mimicked Cynthia’s voice, "Oppa, I love you so, so much."

Adrian shivered.

In public, Sienna maintained the dignified, unsmiling demeanor of a company Boss. So, when she put on such a girlish act in private, it was utterly jarring.

"’Oppa, why are you ignoring me...? My heart is broken, feel it... Oppa, won’t you feel it...?’ she cooed, scooting closer. She saw Adrian’s face darken.

"..."

"’Oppa, you don’t love me anymore,’ she pouted.

"Shut up!"

"HAHA..."

"You’re laughing!"

"’Oppa, you’re so mean! You won’t even let me laugh.’ Sienna, thoroughly enjoying her imitation of Cynthia, looked at Adrian’s exasperated face and couldn’t help but grin broadly.

"You woman..."

"’Oppa, that Cynthia has a thin waist and a big chest. Were you tempted?... I’m pregnant now, so you’ve clearly been holding back for a while... Cynthia said that when a wife is pregnant, the husband’s infidelity rate is highest... Do you think you’ll be able to resist the temptation of beauty?’ She drew circles on his chest.
