The Wrong Woman

This time, Daniel decided not to go after her anymore. Sienna's words helped him think again. Knowing they didn't have a future together, he realized he shouldn't keep bothering her. Even though it hurt, and he desperately wanted to be with her, he had to accept it. They couldn't overcome the obstacle of Shelly between them, so why make things harder for Sienna? As Daniel watched Sienna walk away, tears filled his eyes. He realized that holding back his love was even more painful than losing her.Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org

Daniel stuck to his usual routine of going to work and returning home in the following days.

Sienna made a point to steer clear of him. At home, she tried to keep her distance whenever he was around.

Meanwhile, Mila and Nathan were caught up in their wedding plans. Sometimes, Mila would ask Sienna to join her in checking out things and making decisions.

Despite Mila's insistence, Sienna remained firm in her decision not to be a bridesmaid as she felt it wasn't right for her. Mila respected Sienna's choice and didn't press the matter further.

Mila stayed at her parents' house two days before the wedding to prepare for the big day.

Meanwhile, a lot was going on at Morrison Residence. Everyone was busy decorating the house for the wedding.

Sienna pitched in with Mila's sisters-in-law, helping blow up balloons, stick decorative paper, arrange flowers, and set up decorations. They were all enjoying themselves while bustling around.

As Sienna got to know Mila's sisters-in-law better, they often teased her about Daniel. Little did they know about Sienna and Daniel's past relationship.

"Sienna, Dan is still single. Maybe you should consider him. He's a great catch-good-looking, charming, and kind."

"Yeah, we could be sisters-in-law. Marrying Dan wouldn't be a bad idea. Even though he doesn't have a high salary, he owns a lot of property, shares in companies, and makes investments. He brings in a substantial annual income."

"Sienna, you've known Dan for so long. Don't you have any feelings for him?"

Sienna simply kept her smile and stayed quiet.

Whenever Mila's sisters-in-law brought it up, Sienna would say, "I'm not interested, and I don't have feelings for him."

According to tradition, the bride and groom were expected to enjoy lemon meringue pie on their wedding day.

The pie's lemon filling needed to be thickened using a mixture of cornstarch, flour, and egg yolks.

Florence volunteered to prepare this

special dessert for Nathan and Mila. Intrigued by the process, Sienna decided to join Florence in the

kitchen to lend a hand and learn more.

Florence patiently walked Sienna through every step, from gathering ingredients to preparing the filling. Sienna was eager to learn and paid close attention.

As they bustled around, Florence's phone rang. Juggling a pot of hot sugar mixture, Florence grabbed her phone to see who was calling.

When she turned around, she accidentally collided with Sienna, who cried out in pain as she got burned on the back of her hand. Sienna quickly moved away. After realizing what had happened, Florence quickly put her phone down and set aside the pot of hot sugar mixture she was holding.

"I'm so sorry, Sienna. Are you okay?" Florence was panicking, feeling guilty as she gently held Sienna's burned hand.

Sienna endured the pain, forcing a smile. "I'm fine, Florence. It's just a little—"

Before she could finish, Daniel rushed in and pushed Florence aside. He anxiously grabbed Sienna's hand, his eyes filled with concern.

Sienna hadn't quite caught on to the situation yet. When she caught how solemn and worried Daniel looked, she nervously tried to withdraw her hand.

However, Daniel held onto it firmly, unwilling to release his grip. He immediately led her to the sink and turned on the cold water to rinse her burned hand. He remained silent, his demeanor replaced by an unusual seriousness.

Feeling guilty, Florence quickly explained, "I'm sorry. It's my fault. I was too focused on my phone and didn't see you."

Sienna felt uneasy with Daniel

standing so close and gripping her wrist. She found his actions too intimate. She wanted to move away, but she attempted to do so subtly.

As she tried to pull her hand away, she reassured Florence, "Madam Florence, please don't blame yourself. I'm truly okay."

Noticing her repeated efforts to

withdraw her hand, Daniel became

increasingly displeased. He quietly

ordered, "Stay still. Your hand is

burned, and you're saying you're okay?"
