Chapter 716
Thus, this job meant the world to Daniel. It was his mission, his pride, his duty-everything.
Sienna loved Daniel and held his work and life in high regard.
Daniel grabbed her arm and pulled her close. “Am I not good enough compared to your classmate who’s weak and divorced?”
Sienna stumbled, finding herself in his embrace. Uncertainty and anxiety filled her gaze as she looked up at him. The pain in her arm brought tears to her eyes.
Her chin trembled as she struggled to hold her tears back. She felt utterly lost as she stared at him.
Daniel’s eyes filled with tears when he saw Sienna’s eyes welling up. His voice, full of sadness, shook a little as he spoke, “Sienna, I wish I could go back to when I was blind and crippled.
“Even if you were only looking after me for money, I felt genuinely happy and at peace back then.”
Tears trickled down Sienna’s face as she thought back to those days. She didn’t want to go back to the past.
Daniel’s suffering was too hard to bear. She hoped Daniel would always stay healthy like he was now.
“Back in those days, you did as you pleased when I couldn’t see a thing.” Daniel reminisced with tears in his eyes, though a smile spread across his face.
“You bathed and fed me. We even slept in the same bed. The more I pushed back, the more you insisted on ignoring my protests.
“Even though you’re Wanda’s friend, my mom could easily dismiss you with just a word from me,” Daniel said bitterly.
“But I can’t imagine life without you. You’re like a whirlwind in my heart, shaking up all the stillness and leaving me unsettled every day. My heart is in constant chaos. And then, one day, you were gone.”
Tears streamed down Daniel’s cheeks as he continued through sobs, “It was like I was back in those darkest times. My life felt drained of its light, color, and essence.
“Sienna, if you need money, I’ll provide it. If it’s love you’re longing for, you’ll have all of mine. If security is what you’re after, I’ll leave my frontline role and take a desk job.”
Daniel’s eyes blazed with desperation as he begged, his voice faltering. “Please, don’t go, all right?”
Sienna couldn’t stop her tears from flowing. She felt touched and pained. She couldn’t shake the feeling that she wasn’t worthy of Daniel.
“Daniel, I-”
Sienna began, but Daniel dreaded
the possibility that she might say, “I don’t love you.” His heart pounded, a torrent of emotions swirling within him. Unable to restrain himself, he kissed her fervently.
Sienna was surprised by the sudden kiss. Daniel’s kiss was fierce and intense as he pushed her down onto the couch.
She found his scent, kiss, and the fluttering of her heart all too familiar. Every part of her being seemed to thrum with energy.
Yet, amidst the whirlwind of nerves and excitement, a voice of reason whispered for her to pull back. They had already broken up, and continuing like this felt wrong. Sienna couldn’t utter a single word under his kisses. All she could manage was shy, soft moans. The more she tried to pull away, the more intense his kiss became.
She pounded on his strong chest, but his strength made her efforts pointless. Trying to push and shove against Daniel felt like a waste of energy. It was like attempting to
move an immovable object.
Her soft form, alluring scent, and tempting lips seemed to have a hold over Daniel as if she were a siren.
The time they spent apart had left him yearning for her intensely. He found himself unable to resist the urge to push her down onto the couch and kiss her passionately.
Daniel let his instincts take over as he gently trailed his hands along Sienna’s well-defined curves. He pressed his body against hers.
Sienna’s eyes shot open, tears
blurring her vision as she stared in
shock at Daniel’s face hovering above hers. Her body responded instinctively to Daniel’s touch, and a strange desire surged through her.
She could feel his intense physical reaction against her abdomen.
Overwhelmed by fear, Sienna broke into tears. Her only thought was to escape as she struggled against him.
