Sienna and Jane rode together on the electric scooter, feeling the gentle breeze brushing against them.Sitting behind Jane, Sienna wore a heavy expression. Her eyes still showed traces of tears as she gazed at the passing scenery.With a sigh of resignation, Jane asked, "Sienna, are you going to break up with Captain Morrison?"Sienna leaned wearily against Jane's back. She closed her eyes and replied despondently, "I don't want to break up with him.""Your mom is being so stubborn. Are you going to prioritize your relationship over your family?" Jane asked further."No, I can't sacrifice my family for love. I'll figure out a way to make my mom accept him.""Maybe you should talk to Captain Morrison about this. Dealing with it together could be better than facing it alone," Jane suggested."He's swamped with work. Besides, what good would burdening him with this do? It'll only add to his stress and affect his job." Sienna sighed.She didn't want Daniel to feel as down as she d

Sienna was furious when she heard the staggering amount. She turned to Felix, her voice dripping with anger as she demanded, "What in the world happened?"For regular folks like them, two million dollars was already an unimaginable sum. They couldn't even hope to earn it in their lifetime.Tears streamed down Felix's face, his entire body shaking with guilt. In a remorseful tone, he admitted, "Sienna, I had no clue I'd end up owing this much money. I just tagged along with friends for some fun."I thought I'd start with a couple of grand, and I planned to stop once I hit a losing streak. But instead, I just kept winning and winning, raking in piles of cash…"Sienna snorted and taunted, "So, in the end, you didn't expect to blow through all your winnings and then borrow another two million just to lose that too, huh?"Felix nodded, his body shaking with sobs.Sienna clenched her fists, her body quivering with rage. She yearned to knock some sense into Felix. "You fool. It was obvi

Sienna showed up at Daniel's place unannounced. Despite dating for over two months, this was her first time entering his home. Inside, she found an elegantly simple interior. The living room was big, bright, spotless, and neatly arranged, making it truly welcoming.Sienna opened the shoe cabinet and discovered a brand-new pair of women's slippers waiting for her. It warmed her heart. With a smile, she slipped them on and made her way to the living room.She placed the phone and jewelry box on the coffee table, then settled onto the couch, quietly awaiting Daniel's return from work. As she waited, she mulled over how she would broach the subject with him.After waiting for a while, Sienna decided to start preparing dinner, planning to share a meal with Daniel upon his return. As night descended, she nodded off while scrolling through her phone.…As Daniel's car pulled into the driveway, he was surprised to see the lights on inside the house. After exiting the car, he quietly app

Sienna's nose twinged. She realized that Daniel had sensed for a while that she might end their relationship. She couldn't bring herself to use Daniel's money to settle Felix's debt.The sadness in Daniel's eyes pained her deeply."Daniel, Clement framed Felix by putting him in debt and using it to manipulate me. He even offered me money to help him. My family doesn't have the funds to clear the debt, so I feel powerless."Feeling sorrow, Daniel ran his fingers through his hair. "I've already told you. I have the money.""I can't accept your money. Right now, I see only two options. One is to hire a lawyer and sue him for setting up the gambling scam, and the other is to betray him and act as your informant."With that, Sienna pulled out her phone from her pocket. "I recorded my conversation with him, but I'm not sure if it can serve as evidence."Daniel sank back into the couch helplessly. "You're already considering ending things with me, which is why you refuse my money, right

The living room was unsettlingly silent. The clock on the wall showed it was 12:30 am.Sienna looked at Felix, who sat quietly with his head down, then turned to Shelly, who seemed to have calmed down.Sienna's heart felt heavy, making it difficult to catch her breath. The tension in the house was overwhelming, almost pushing her to the edge of madness."Mom, Felix was tricked into this. We need to involve the police," Sienna urged. She took a deep breath before continuing, "My boyfriend works in anti-drug enforcement, but his job doesn't put us in danger. Please try to understand—"Shelly interrupted, her voice filled with anger, "Those criminals targeted Felix because of your boyfriend. They wouldn't have done this otherwise. Can't you see how serious this is?"Sienna hung her head, unable to reply. Her heart throbbed with pain.Felix hesitantly asked, "Sienna, is what Mom said is true? When did you start seeing a cop? Did Clement trick me into that two-million-dollar debt be
