She knew Stanley’s situation wouldn’t be good, but she never expected it to be this bad.
If this continued, before she could save Stanley, she might hear the worst news.
Sienna clenched her fists, and she was tensed with emotion.
“Ms. Mckinney, forgive my bluntness,” Donald said with a heavy tone, sensing Sienna’s distress over the phone. “All of this might be Mr. Olson’s doing.”
Donald’s information couldn’t be wrong, and Sienna had the right to know the truth.
Adrian’s intentions….
Sienna stared blankly out the window, unable to speak.
It was as if someone had choked her, unable to cry or laugh, with only silent tears streaming down her face.
It was Adrian again. What did he want? To torment Sienna to death?
Sienna initially harbored a faint hope, wanting to beg Adrian to spare Stanley.
If Stanley could be safe, Sienna would do anything, even if Adrian’s humiliations intensified, she would have no complaints.
However, the facts proved that these were just Sienna’s wishful thoughts.
Adrian’s heart had grown so hardened that no matter what attempts were made to reach him, they proved to be ineffective.
“Ms. Mckinney,” Donald said seriously, “I’m willing to be your father’s defense lawyer and help you through this difficult time, as long as you trust me.”
Trust?
What a luxurious word.
Did Sienna have any choice now? If someone was willing to help her, even if it was a trap, she would jump in without
hesitation.
“Okay.” Sienna nodded vigorously, not considering the consequences. “I trust you!”
Sienna’s unconditional trust brought comfort to Donald.
After instructing Sienna on a few matters, Donald told her that the most important thing was to escape from Adrian’s side.
This was the first thing Sienna wanted to do upon learning of Stanley’s false accusations. She had no intention of forgiving
Adrian.
Adrian refused to help and even schemed to make Stanley’s charges even heavier. Sienna had no reason to stay.
After talking to Donald, Sienna hid her phone card and sat on the edge of the bed, contemplating her fingers.
In the past, when Sienna married Adrian, he had been reluctant.
This marriage was her persistence. Adrian had never treated her seriously, and she even bought the ring herself.
He reluctantly stayed with Sienna, living a loveless marriage for three years.

Sienna had been very obedient and submissive lately, never defying Adrian, which made him feel uneasy.
Her compliance didn’t mean she truly submitted. Adrian looked at Sienna, who was eating quietly, feeling he could not
understand her.
She was like a delicate butterfly, ready to flutter away and disappear from sight at any moment.
“Sienna.”
Adrian couldn’t help but call her name.
