The Wrong Woman
Chapter 836

Daniel never took Vivian to upscale venues for their date. He never showered her with lavish gifts, and even his car was a modest, locally-made model.

Vivian often pondered the fact that Daniel's parents held the Morrison family's wealth, and their business was set to be inherited by his brothers, who were actively engaged in business operations.

As a police officer, Daniel earned a humble salary and faced an unpredictable career path. Realizing this, Vivian decided to let go of their relationship to chase her dreams of stardom. Now, her choices from the past had taught her hard lessons.

Meanwhile, the cruise ship neared the dock. Amidst the bustle, Daniel coordinated with his colleagues to transfer a group of handcuffed criminals off the ship for an official handover. Sienna stepped carefully off the ship on her own. Suddenly, she heard a voice from behind.

"Let me help you, Sienna," said a plainclothes police officer.

She turned and offered the officer a polite smile. "It's fine. Thank you."

"Alright, just be careful then."

Curious, Sienna asked, "Did you catch Alex?"

"Alex? Who's that?"

Sienna's hand flew to her mouth, her eyes wide with sudden alarm. They probably didn't know Alex was the mastermind. Had she inadvertently exposed something that could jeopardize Daniel? "It's nothing," Sienna said, her feet carrying her toward Daniel.

Upon reaching him, she tugged at his hand. "Honey."

Daniel turned, his attention shifting from the criminal he was handing over to a colleague. He took Sienna's hand and asked, "What's the matter?" Anxiously, Sienna pointed to the man behind her. "I accidentally mentioned Alex's name. That guy is your colleague, right? He asked me who's Alex." Offering a reassuring smile, Daniel said, "It's okay. Don't worry about it."

"But what if he's a spy? If he realizes Alex's identity is exposed, he might warn him."

Realizing the gravity of her concern, Daniel said, "I'll handle it. Let's get you home first."

"It's okay. I'll just take a taxi." Sienna rejected.

Daniel's voice took on a grave tone. "Your safety comes first no matter how pressing my work is. I'm taking you home."

With a faint smile, Sienna nodded and returned home together with Daniel.

At the doorstep, Sienna insisted Daniel return to his duties, yet he wasn't convinced she was safe.

He watched over her as she entered the house and asked Camille to ensure her well-being. He hesitated at the doorway, torn about leaving.

"Aren't you busy?" Sienna asked.

With a rueful smile, Daniel pulled Sienna into his arms and kissed her deeply, pouring all his unspoken words into the gesture. After the kiss, he left the house. Exhausted from the day, Sienna freshened up and lay down in her room, losing track of time as she rested.

Suddenly, she was jolted awake by a knock at the door. Groggily, she threw on a light jacket and went to answer it. As soon as she opened the door, she was greeted by Florence, who wore a kind and excited expression. Accompanying her was the family doctor.

"Sienna! That's wonderful news. Dan told me you're pregnant. He's swamped with work and can't be here, so he sent me to check on you. I've brought our family doctor to give you a check-up. "How are you feeling? Is anything bothering you?" Florence spoke rapidly with a wide smile, her emotions running high.

"Thank you, Florence," Sienna said with gratitude. She welcomed Florence and the family doctor into the room.

Florence took Sienna's hand and led her back to the bed as she softly advised, "Since this is your first pregnancy, don't hesitate to ask me or your sisters-in-law any questions you might have. Just let us know if anything makes you uncomfortable. And if you're craving something, tell me "

Warmth spread through Sienna's heart as she listened to Florence's caring words. Florence's kind and gentle smile brought Shelly to mind, filling Sienna with a sense of comfort and joy.
