Daniel's expression became somber. He corrected her with a serious tone, "She's not just any caregiver-she's the person I'm pursuing." At this remark, all three women were stunned.
Sienna's face instantly flushed.
Daniel was really straightforward. He didn't bother to hide anything, nor was he being subtle at all.
What was she supposed to do with such bluntness?
"I, uh, I'll get going first," Sienna said before walking past Daniel.
Daniel pulled her arm. This time, he didn't let go. Instead, he politely said to Jane, "Are you Sienna's friend?"
Jane smiled and said, "I'm Jane Snyder, Captain Morrison. You can call me Jane."
"Jane, can I borrow Sienna for a moment?" Daniel asked politely.
Sienna was confused. What did he mean by that?
Jane immediately left Sienna with Daniel. Her happiness was evident.
"Sure, take your time," she replied. "She's not busy now. Except for working two or three hours a day, she's quite free."
"Thanks." Daniel nodded politely at her. Then, he walked away, holding Sienna's hand.
Vivian's expression became gloomy as she watched Daniel leave with another woman without considering her feelings. She felt upset and angry, but more than that, she felt jealous. Glaring at Sienna's retreating figure, she clenched her trembling fists. She couldn't believe Daniel would like a woman like that. He must be trying to upset her.
Jane glanced at Vivian. She quietly packed up her things and left.
Sienna got into Daniel's car at the parking lot.
Just as Daniel was about to reach over to help her, Sienna immediately pulled the seatbelt. "I can do it myself."
She seemed calm, but she was actually very nervous.
Daniel paused. He closed the door and went to the driver's seat. He fastened his seatbelt before driving the car away.
The vehicle was moving slowly along the wide road.
The atmosphere in the car was stifling. After a moment of silence, Daniel said, "She was filming in the neighboring town and happened to run into me." Sienna forced a smile and replied, "Okay."
She felt she had no right to be concerned about him having coffee with any woman, and it wasn't appropriate to continue talking about it.
She quickly changed the subject. "What are they filming in the neighboring town?"
"Hmm..."
"I'd love to have a look."Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org
"Sienna."
"Yeah?"
Daniel parked the car on the side of the road. He rolled down the window and turned off the engine. Then, he unfastened his seatbelt before turning to look at her.
He looked at her intensely and said, "About the thing I've mentioned back then... It's already been three days. Could you give me an answer?"
Sienna dared not look at him, so she stared straight ahead without saying a word.
Leaning back, Daniel heaved a soft sigh. He was panicking inside. He knew how to handle work and life matters, but he really didn't know how to deal with relationships.
He could see that Sienna wasn't interested in him and didn't want to have a relationship with him. He also knew that she wasn't interested in his family background or him as a person.
But he just couldn't control his feelings. The only thing he wanted was to be together with her.
"You went on dates with strangers too. You don't have feelings for them, but you can accept them. Why can't you give me a chance?" Daniel continued to persuade her. Sienna's mind was in turmoil. She slowly lowered her head to fiddle with her fingers.
Daniel continued, "Sienna, can you tell me what's on your mind?"
Sienna thought of Wanda.
She had always envied Wanda, who had a privileged family background. She was also well-educated from a young age. Not only that, she had a remarkable job and a husband who loved her dearly.
Some things were destined from birth and couldn't be changed.
But love was different people had to fight for love. Once they missed it, it was gone forever.
Who didn't have a romantic youth?
Having a relationship with the man she liked would make her youth less regrettable and would also help with her writing.
Sienna had thought about it a lot. Finally, she came up with her decision.
She turned to look at him and said seriously, "We can give it a try, but I have two conditions."
