Chapter 1343 There's No Turning Back

What should they do?

Nicole and Yanice were afraid.

"You guys go first."

Zayn nudged Nicole.

Nicole was confused.

"Where am I going?"

She was unfamiliar with this place and wanted Zayn to indicate a direction.

But the people were already in front of Zayn.

"Zayn, where are you going? Holy shit. The people behind you just came out of the garbage? They
stink."

It was the sixth oldest princess of Country F, Sienna Freeman. Her mother was a daughter of an
unknown family. Back then, the family was beset with a crisis, and her mother was sent to Leo to be his
ninth wife. After giving birth to Sienna, her mother lost Leo's favor. These years, Sienna and her mother
kept a low profile in their palaces and did not associate with anyone else. Sienna rarely came out, like
an invisible person.

Zayn had few memories of Sienna. He didn't know if she was his enemy or friend, so he was a little
nervous.

"Sienna, where are you going?"



"Come out for a walk. The snowstorm has lasted for three days. Mother said that they might need help
outside, so I decided to go out and take a look."

Sienna's voice was as sweet as an oriole's, and there were two sweet, delightful dimples on her face
when she was smiling.

However, Zayn knew that she might not be an innocent girl, because she grew up in this palace.

"Then I'll get out of your hair."

Zayn didn't want to continue the conversation, so he held Nicole's hand and was about to leave. But
Sienna stopped him.

"Zayn, are you going to Ms. Sally's palace?"

They were indeed going in the direction of Sally's palace, so it wasn't surprising that Sienna guessed.

"Sienna, what do you want to say?"

Zayn knew that it didn't help to say anything now. If there was no other way, he could only....

A trace of coldness and ruthlessness flashed through Zayn's eyes.

Sienna saw it. She shrank in fear and whispered, "Zayn, Father is in Ms. Sally's palace. I saw him
when I was passing by. If you want to go, I suggest that you take the people behind you to wash up in
case Father gets mad. He doesn't seem to be in a good mood today."

These words reminded Zayn.

Zayn's heart skipped a beat. If what Sienna said was true, then bringing Nicole over now would be
dangerous. But where could he send Nicole now?



Zayn didn't know what to do.

Sienna looked at Zayn and said timidly, "My palace isn't far from here. Zayn, if you don't mind, you can
bring them there to wash up?"

Nicole glanced at Sienna.

She had a good first impression of this girl, who was good-looking and had a voice pleasant to the ear.
However, she could tell that Zayn did not have any special feelings for Sienna. Zayn would be nicer to
a stranger than to Sienna. Now it was hard to tell if it was a good thing that Sienna offered to help.

However, they could only go to Sienna's palace and see what to do next.

Thinking of this, Nicole tugged at Zayn's sleeve and whispered, "We can't just stand here. Why don't
we go over first? If we run into Major's people, we'll be doomed."

It was true.

Zayn thought of Major's people and didn't know if Daniella could deal with them. Therefore, he
pondered while turning his eyes again at Sienna, a girl who seemed innocent.

Sienna was not in a hurry, waiting for Zayn to make a decision.

Nicole looked around and whispered, "Let's just go. No matter what she's thinking, we'll find out when
we get there."

"Alright."

Zayn didn't have a good idea, so he looked at Sienna and said, "Let's go to your palace."

"Follow me, Zayn. I'm sorry, miss. You smell bad. We'll talk later."



Sienna was gentle and kind to Nicole, but Nicole didn't trust Sienna since she just met Sienna.

Zayn took Nicole and Yanice to Sienna's palace.

The budget and furnishings of Sienna's palace didn't compare with those of Inez's palace or Zayn's
palace. The differences between being favored and not being favored were obvious.

Nicole kept observing. There were few guards and maids here. The entire palace was empty and
bleak.

Sienna brought them in and sent someone to take Nicole and Yanice to wash up. Then, she poured a
cup of hot tea for Zayn and said with a smile, "Zayn, here you are."

"Thank you."

Zayn didn't think that Sienna was a good person. However, when he sniffed the tea, he found that there
was nothing strange.

Sienna whispered, "Father doesn't like us, so the tea leaves are ordinary. Zayn, I hope you won't hate
it."

"No, I won't. But I want to know why you are helping me."

Nicole wasn't here, so Zayn was candid. As Nicole's cousin, he could not bring danger and uneasiness
to Nicole. Even though Sienna looked innocent, there was always a hidden agenda. If it was beyond
his ability, then he needed to figure out another way.

Sienna did not panic. She kept a sweet smile and said, "Zayn, you are so impatient, but that's fine. We
are decent people, and I'll get right to the point. I can tell that something strange is going on here.
Everyone is trying to take the throne. Zayn, there is something that I don't know if I should say."



"It seems that you want to say it. Then just tell me. You said that you would get right to the point. Then
there's no need to hide it."

Zayn was honest.

Sienna paused for a moment before saying, "Father is still in his prime, and you both plan to take the
throne. Isn't that inappropriate? You have to know that although we are not in ancient times, as a
monarch, Father won't want to hand over the throne. I know that you want to compete with Santino. But
Father is well now. I'm afraid he will continue being in power for many years. If you guys go too far,
Father will be pissed, and you will be finished."

Sienna was sincere.

Zayn sneered and said, "I'm not interested in the throne. I even left this place to get rid of everything
here."

"Then why did you come back this time?"

"For revenge!"

A trace of coldness flashed through Zayn's eyes.

"Zayn, was Pedro really the love of your life? You only had each other. Perhaps it's not the love you
think it is. Perhaps it's because you haven't had any relationship with a woman. So...."

Sienna had heard about Zayn and Pedro, so she was a little conflicted.

Zayn said frankly, "What Pedro and I had was more than just love. He was my lover, partner and family
member. We only had each other, and we went through so many things together. But then Major killed
him. If I don't avenge Pedro on Major, I will feel sorry to Pedro."



"But what if it wasn't Major who killed Pedro, but someone else?"

Hearing it, Zayn frowned.

"Do you know something?"

"I don't know anything. I'm just guessing. Zayn, I still think that Father won't hand over the throne. You
should give up as soon as possible."

Sienna was sincere, but Zayn sneered and said, "It's impossible for me to stop now. Since Father can't
tolerate our coveting of the throne, he must have taken precautions against us. If I don't take the
throne, I can't take revenge. Sienna, there's no turning back."

Zayn knew what he would have to confront along the way. Not only did he have to confront Santino and
Santino's people, but he had to confront his biggest enemy and biological father, Leo.

Just as Sienna had said, Leo was in his prime and would not hand over the throne. However, Zayn
could not wait for Leo to die of old age before taking revenge. Leo so favored Major. Zayn was afraid
that he would die before he managed to take revenge.

Hearing Zayn's words, Sienna sighed and said, "Zayn, you seem to have made up your mind."

"Did Father send you here?"

According to what Sienna had said, Zayn guessed.

Sienna shook her head and said, "Zayn, if you are really determined to take the throne, my mother and
I can help you."

Zayn paused.



Sienna's mother's surname was Sawyer. The Sawyer family wasn't a famous family in Country F, and it
couldn't even get into the top four. However, it wanted to help Zayn, which surprised Zayn.

"The Sawyer family doesn't seem to be very powerful."

"Zayn, are you looking down on us?"

Sienna smiled sweetly, which made Zayn nervous.

"No. I have no help, so I'm in no position to look down on others. I just want to know is this what you
want or what your mother wants. Or is it what the Sawyer family wants?"

Sienna looked at Zayn and pondered before saying, "It's what my cousin Davon Sawyer wants."

Zayn had heard of Davon. He was said to be the leader of the new generation of the Sawyer family,
who had great talent in business. Thanks to him, the Sawyer family's business stopped being loss-
making and turned a profit in just a few years. He was the hope of the Sawyer family.

Davon was very low-key and never appeared in public. Most of the time, his assistant would attend
banquets on behalf of him. So far, few persons knew what he looked like.

Some said that he was ugly, and some said that he was disabled. There were rumors, but Davon never
said anything.

Zayn didn't understand why Davon would support him in taking the throne.

"What does he want?"

"Davon wants the Sawyer family to become the number one family in Country F."

Sienna was still smiling, but what she said shocked Zayn.



How ambitious Davon was!

"What if I fail?"

"With Davon's help, you will not fail."

The certainty surprised Zayn.

"Why don't you choose Santino? He's more powerful than me, and he has good relations with the
important officials. If you choose him, your chances of winning will be higher. Why did you choose me?"

Zayn wasn't stupid. It was by himself that he had walked all the way here. Although Sally's remaining
forces had helped him, he couldn't rely on them to take the throne. Now, the Sawyer family offered to
help him. Zayn felt that he must think twice.

Sienna smiled and said, "Davon will tell you the reason. In fact, you and Davon have a deep
connection."

Zayn felt confused as if he was surrounded by fog, and he could not stop guessing.
