Chapter 569

Sienna felt a rush of familiarity as she stepped into Daniel's house. The living room was neat and organized, and she sat on the couch as a guest for the first time.

Daniel sat directly across from her, making her feel a bit awkward.

In the meantime, Mila headed to the kitchen to brew some coffee.

The atmosphere was quiet, with neither Sienna nor Daniel saying a word. Sienna stole a glance at Daniel, finding comfort in the sight of his robust and healthy appearance.

As Mila brought the coffee, she noticed the tension and asked, "You two haven't seen each other in a while, why aren't you talking?"

Sienna awkwardly smiled as she took the coffee from Mila. "Thank you."

Mila then handed a cup of warm coffee to Daniel. He said, "Thank you."

Sitting beside Sienna, Mila smiled and suggested, "You both seem tense. Why not talk about something cheerful?"

Sienna lowered her head slowly, taking a sip of coffee. She wondered if there was anything joyful in her life worth sharing.

However, her life seemed laden with sadness and hardship, leaving little room for anything happy to share.

Daniel took a calm sip of his coffee, maintaining his silence.

As Mila sipped her coffee, she subtly glanced at Sienna before shifting her gaze to Daniel. She wondered if the tension between them was a result of nervousness.

Mila empathized with that sentiment. During the early days of her relationship with Nathan, she frequently found herself too nervous to speak.Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org

Intentionally, Mila suggested, "Sienna, why not share some of your interesting blind date stories with us? I'm curious to hear."

Sienna was caught off guard by the suggestion, causing her to choke on her coffee. She hurriedly covered her mouth.

Reacting swiftly, Daniel grabbed the tissue box and passed two tissues to Sienna before Mila could respond.

Sienna stared into his eyes in

disbelief. His eyes, clear and beautiful, lacked focus. Though he

couldn't see anything, she couldn't shake the feeling that he had witnessed her choking. S

"Thank you." Sienna accepted the tissues Daniel extended.

Mila offered a comforting pat on her back. "What's the matter? You were sharing those stories so enthusiastically earlier, weren't you?"

"It's not the right place to discuss that, Mila," Sienna mumbled awkwardly.

Mila smiled at Daniel and asked, "Daniel, would you like to hear?"

Without hesitation, Daniel replied, "Yes."

Feeling embarrassed, Sienna coughed a few more times. She didn't want to delve into her experiences with blind dates before Daniel because she wanted to leave a good impression. Yet, she couldn't shake the thought that her behavior in the past might have already cast her in a negative light. Perhaps she was rude and unreasonable to Daniel.

Sienna pondered before casually saying, "Well, I went on a few more blind dates afterward, and they weren't too bad. There was this one nice guy, but unfortunately, my mom disapproved."

Mila appeared puzzled. "Why not?"

"He was open to buying a house with our names on it, but there wouldn't be any wedding gifts," Sienna explained.

"Isn't a house a more sincere gesture than a wedding gift?" Mila questioned.

Sienna nodded with a bitter smile.

"He's a government worker with a steady income, good-looking, comes from a rich family, and his parents

are college professors. Everything seemed great. But my mom wouldn't accept it without a wedding present."

Mila sighed. "Perhaps the guy understood your mom's focus on the gift and offered you stability in another way."

Sienna agreed that the man was a good choice for marriage.
