The Wrong Woman

"Do you know how ruthless and evil drug lords can be?" Shelly choked up, "They will ruthlessly kill every anti-drug officer. If they're still not satisfied, they'll go after the officers' families, wiping them out!" Sienna tried to comfort her, "Mom, those are extreme cases. Most anti-drug officers are safe..."

Shelly's eyes turned red as she angrily shouted, "No one is safe! When those drug traffickers go all out, they massacre entire families."

It was the first time Sienna had seen Shelly so emotionally charged with her reddened and teary eyes.

Even though they were just having a discussion, Sienna wondered why Shelly was so worked up.

"Mom... What's wrong?" Sienna's heart raced as she asked softly.

Shelly turned away to wipe her tears in secret.

Sienna realized the seriousness of the situation, so she hurried over to Shelly. She asked, "Mom, did you experience something bad before?" Shelly pretended to be strong and squatted down to continue unpacking the items. She said, "When I was young, I had a good fiancé.

"If he hadn't been killed by those evil drug lords, I wouldn't have married your father!

"He was poor and useless. He didn't have other good qualities except for being honest and kind-hearted."

"Was he a police officer?" Sienna asked nervously.

Shelly secretly wiped her tears again. She choked up, "No, he wasn't. His father was an anti-drug officer. His father made a major drug bust and received great acclaim. But a week later, his entire family was killed.

"From his mother who was in her nineties to his six-month-old grandson, eight family members, no one survived. My fiancé, as the third son of the family, was also killed."

Sienna was distressed about her situation but didn't know how to comfort her.

People from Shelly's generation were so pure and sincere in their emotions. Losing her first love must have been a scar that hurt for the rest of her life.

Shelly cleared her throat before standing up. She composed herself and said in a loud voice, "Anyway, I don't agree with you marrying a police officer. Don't waste your time on the impossible."

Sienna already felt inadequate compared to someone as outstanding as Daniel. Now, Shelly's attitude was firm, making her feel even worse.

She had strong feelings for Daniel, but in every aspect, she and Daniel were incompatible.

Since they hadn't started dating

each other and their relationship.et was stable, she decided to

end it. After all, a stitch in time saves nine.

That night, Siena couldn't sleep.

The next morning, the website editor called her and asked her to proofread the novel for typos and grammatical errors because the publisher was going to publish her old book.

Sienna decided to put her feelings aside and prioritize her work.

There were too many tedious tasks before publication. Sienna spent three days busy at home. Except for eating and sleeping, she was busy proofreading, editing, filling out forms, and coordinating with the editor.

She even forgot about Daniel's confession.

After she finished her work, she couldn't help but chat with her fellow writers online in the group.

Seeing others discussing novels adapted into comics or TV dramas, with their income soaring, she felt envious.

"Sisi, let's go out for coffee. We can write together, my treat."

Sienna thought for a moment before replying, "Okay, see you at the usual place."

At noon, Sienna and her like-minded friend, Jane Snyder, met at the Velvet Brew Café to work on the books.

They chatted occasionally, then quieted down. Both of them were seriously typing on their laptops.

When they reached a block in the story, they stopped to discuss the plot.

Time flew by, Sienna had nothing to worry about. All she thought was the plot.

She felt a bit sore in her neck, so she stood up to stretch. She stretched her head from side to side to loosen her muscles and bones.Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org
