The Wrong Woman
Chapter 783

In the days that followed, Sienna felt completely disoriented. If she didn't love Daniel, there would be nothing to agonize over. She would have moved on decisively. But the problem was, she still loved him. Even after more than a year since their breakup, his pleas to get back together still stirred her heart. She scheduled a meeting with her lawyer to discuss court dates and other important matters.

At the law firm, the lawyer was busy attending to other clients. She could hear an angry woman's voice coming from inside through the slightly ajar door.

"When he had nothing, I stood by him through hard times. We lived in a basement and ate expired bread. Our love endured many hardships.

"I defied my parents to be with him, supporting him every step of the way. He said I was the only one he would ever love, his everything. But he turned out to be a worthless scumbag.

"Now that he's successful, he's forgotten what we went through together. He transferred all his assets to his mistress under the guise of investments. He wants to leave me with nothing. You have to help me." Sienna felt deeply troubled by what she overheard. She felt sorry for the woman inside.

Suddenly, Sienna had an epiphany. Wasn't Shelly just like that woman, enduring hardship all her life?

The difference was that Shelly's husband was incompetent, unable to provide her with romantic love or a comfortable life, and he passed away early.

She suffered her whole life, ultimately succumbing to depression and ending it all.

Sienna thought love was the most unreliable thing in the world. One moment, someone might claim to love you to death, and the next, they might despise you enough to wish you dead.

She believed almost all men were like this.

Now that Daniel wanted to marry her, why not be pragmatic and choose the man with the best conditions, even if he was a scumbag? At least if they divorced, she might have some financial security. Sienna sent a message to her lawyer. "Let's reschedule. Something came up."

She left the law firm and took a cab to the police station where Daniel worked. Standing in the shade by the entrance, she quietly waited for Daniel to appear.

A colleague entered and told Daniel, "A stunning woman's waiting for you outside. She asked for you specifically."

Confused, Daniel asked, "Who?"

"I have no idea. But she's attractive and has a great body."

The phrase "great body" didn't imply a skinny body type. Any man would naturally understand this.

Daniel hurried outside. At the

entrance, he spotted Sienna, whom he hadn't seen in days. His heart raced as he approached her,

the

surface. "Sienna, are you looking for me?"

BUMS

Sienna's fingers tightened on the hem of her skirt involuntarily. She gazed at Daniel's ruggedly handsome face, finally mustering her courage after a long while. "Daniel, I agree."

Daniel was taken aback, his gaze meeting Sienna's with astonishment and joy His heart began to race, his breath quickening, and he clenched his fists involuntarily. "Sienna, are you saying you'll marry me?"

"I have two conditions."

"Two conditions? I'd even agree to 200." Daniel smiled. He couldn't contain his joy.

Sienna's expression was serious. "I don't want a wedding ceremony."

Daniel's heart constricted, and a pang of disappointment washed over him.

Noticing his subdued response, Sienna continued, "I won't live with your family."

Daniel shared her sentiment and nodded. "That's fine. You can live wherever you'd like."

With the same composed demeanor

she showed during blind dates, Sienna added, "Let me be clear t have no parents, just a brother currently in prison. I'm financially strained, with minimal savings.

"My income from writing books is quite unstable. So, I won't have any wedding gifts to offer, and you needn't provide any either. We'll simply register our marriage without a ceremony."
