Chapter 709
“He’s the investor from my last film,” Vivian explained.
“Your film crew finished filming, so why is everyone still here?” Sienna asked.
“We’re transitioning into the next production. You won’t understand,” Vivian replied.
“Do you still have contact with the boss behind Clement?”
Vivian smirked. “Did Daniel teach you that? You sound like you’re grilling a suspect.”
Looking displeased, Sienna retorted, “If you’re feeling guilty about Daniel, help him by exposing who tried to kill him.”
“I don’t need your guidance. I’ll take care of it.”
“Then, what do you want from me?”
“I hope you completely cut ties with Daniel.”
“What do you mean by ‘completely”?”
Vivian retrieved a check and a business card from her pocket.
“This is a check for 300 thousand dollars. It can help pay for Felix’s medical expenses. And the business card is from my friend, who owns a company in another city. You can work there. The salary and benefits are quite good.”
It became clear that Vivian wanted Sienna to keep her distance from Daniel.
Sienna shoved the business card and check back to her. “Ms. Ludovic, I want to be clear that my politeness here is just a formality. Don’t mistake it for my willingness to make deals with someone like you. “To me, you’ll always be a cowardly, selfish, and foolish woman. You betrayed Daniel and put his life at risk. Whether now or in the future, you’ll remain the person I despise the most, without exception. “If Daniel loves you and decides to be with you, I’ll wish him the best. There’s nothing left between him and me, so please don’t disgust me by trying to win me over with money.”
Sienna stood up, her tone chilly as she bid farewell. “Let’s not meet again. There’s nothing left to discuss with someone like you. I genuinely hope you’ll refrain from interfering with my family. Thank you Content.
As Sienna walked away, Vivian shouted, “You couldn’t even cover Felix’s medical bills. And if you’re not taking my money, I hope you won’t turn to Daniel for help. It’s time for both of you to move on.”
Sienna stopped abruptly, a sharp pang piercing her chest. She took a deep breath and put on a fake smile as she turned around slowly. “Thanks for the reminder. It’s such a brilliant way to stay connected with him.”
Vivian visibly bristled at the remark.
Ignoring her, Sienna walked away. She hopped on her electric scooter and headed toward the hospital. Her heartache felt like needles piercing her chest.
Shelly and Sienna had spent all their money and borrowed some from relatives, but it wasn’t enough for the expensive ICU fees. Shelly was probably distressed, scrambling to gather funds to save Felix. Sienna considered asking Daniel for help. However, since they had already broken up, she couldn’t bring herself to look for him.
When she arrived at the hospital, she spotted Finley in the corridor. The anti-drug officer was there with another colleague.
“Officer Wood,” Sienna greeted politely.
Finley recognized Sienna as Daniel’s girlfriend but wasn’t aware they had split up, so he greeted her politely, “Ms. Lawson, are you here to see Felix?”
“Yes,” Sienna replied. Intrigued by the presence of the anti-drug officers, she asked, “What brings you here?”
“Felix is starting to wake up. When he came to, he kept talking about ‘plants,’ and then mentioned ‘poppies.’ That’s why the doctors notified us to come over,” Finley explained.
“Plants?”
“Yeah, the poppies. It seems he saw someone planting them.”
Sienna’s skin prickled with goosebumps as she gazed anxiously at Finley. She was momentarily left speechless.
Was it possible that the fenced-off hill wasn’t just a place for filming but a disguise for growing and making drugs?
