Chapter 800
Daniel gently touched Sienna’s hand and said softly, “Chat with Ryan for a bit.”
Sienna nodded obediently.
After that, Jurgen followed Daniel into the study.
Sienna felt a bit nervous and awkward, so she tried to find something to say, “Would you like some fruit? I can serve you some.”
Ryan quickly responded, “It’s fine, Sienna. I can just drink tea.”
He took a sip of the tea in front of him.
Feeling awkward, she sat down and forced a smile because she didn’t know what else to talk about.
Ryan glanced at the door to the study, then he asked quietly, “Sienna, pardon my boldness, but do you know about Daniel’s decision to resign?”
Sienna was stunned. She shook her head.
Feeling worried, she nervously asked, “He didn’t tell me. He loves his job so much. Why would he resign?”
“He does love his job, but he loves you more. In order to marry you, he needs to quit his job,” Ryan said with a sigh.
He continued, “In reality, career and family matters can coexist, like in my case, I have a happy family and a successful career without any problems.”
Sienna was dumbfounded. Her heart ached as she looked at Ryan in disbelief.
Ryan continued in a low voice, “Mr. Klopp doesn’t want to lose such an outstanding officer and our team needs someone like Daniel. We came here not only to congratulate you on your marriage, but also to try to convince him to stay.”
Clutching her pants tightly, Sienna struggled to calm herself down. She said, “He doesn’t need to resign to marry me. I never asked him to.”
Ryan states, “From what I heard, it was your mother’s idea. She didn’t want you to marry a police officer. He chose his career over you a year ago but he couldn’t move on So, he decided to resign and be with you.”
Sienna felt a bit sad and her heart ached for some reason.
Ryan sighed deeply. He pleaded, “Sienna, if you’re not opposed to his job, could you talk to your mother and convince him not to resign? The police force and the country need him.”
Sienna felt glum. She responded, “My mom passed away a year ago.”
Ryan was shocked. He quickly apologized, “I’m sorry, I didn’t know. I thought…”
When Ryan realized, he was confused. He asked, “If your mother passed away a year ago, no one is against you being together now, so why is he still resigning?”
Sienna pursed her lips as she smiled bitterly. Tears welled up in her eyes and her heart was aching. She looked down without answering his question.
It turned out that Shelly forced their breakup a year ago. Daniel had never explained it to her. He just silently bore the label of a jerk.
He must have wanted to retain her
mother’s dignity and not tarnish her image in Sienna’s heart, so he never spoke ill of the deceased. Although he was so foolish, he was a kind man.

Memories of the past flashed through her mind, and she finally understood him.
Tears welled up in her eyes, but she discreetly wiped them away. Taking a deep breath, she looked at Ryan and said, “I’ll convince him not to resign, so don’t worry.”
Ryan was very happy. He slapped his thigh in excitement and said, “That’s wonderful! With your support, I feel relieved.”
“I want to know, has he caught the drug lord he pursued for many years, the one who severely injured him?”
Ryan was taken aback. “You know about that?”
Sienna nodded. “Yes. I’m the one who took care of him when he was recovering from his injuries, so I’m familiar with it.” “That case is a sore spot for him because he hasn’t caught the mastermind yet.”
