The assistant understood, taking the card and knowing what to do.
This wasn’t Janice’s first time doing such a thing. Her assistant was quite skilled at it.
Soon, Stanley in prison received notice that his company was being investigated for tax evasion, and
he had to be prosecuted.
The emaciated Stanley Mckinney tormented in prison couldn’t believe his ears. He screamed in
defense, “Tax evasion? I’ve never done such a thing!”
“There must be some misunderstanding! Please investigate more thoroughly!”
But no matter how he pleaded his innocence, no one would listen.
Everyone knew he had provoked Adrian and ended up in prison.
They didn’t dare defy Adrian, so they obediently followed his wishes.
Stanley’s troubles multiplied, and he was bullied and ostracized by his fellow inmates. He lived like an
ant, seeking death several times only to be saved by the warden.
He was stuck between life and death, miserable all day, and had lost a significant amount of weight.
Meanwhile, Sienna, who was staying at the Olson Manor, was completely unaware of this and was still
trying to figure out how to rescue Stanley.
She had repeatedly tried to use divorce as a bargaining chip but was unable to gain Adrian’s consent.
Adrian kept trapping her in the room like a zombie.
Continuing like this was not an option, so Sienna had no choice but to submit to Adrian for now and
think of a plan later. Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.
The once stubborn and strong-willed woman finally gave in, which surprised Adrian.
Adrian looked at Sienna in front of him, not like he was seeing a person, but rather as if he was
examining merchandise. His gaze was cold and emotionless.
“Sienna, what do you want to do?”
Sienna’s eyes slightly downcast. She didn’t use her usual sharp gaze to look at him, calmly responding,
“I don’t want to do anything. I just want to live well. Would you believe that?”
In the past, her innocence led her to value her principles over her own well-being, causing her great
pain. As a result, her once-radiant beauty now appeared weary and worn.
As things went on that way, the only person who ended up happy was Janice.
Why would Sienna do something that would delight Janice? Wasn’t this slapping her own face?
Sienna suddenly came to her senses. She wasn’t worth doing this for Adrian and Janice.
Instead of self-harm, it was more important to live well.
Sienna needed to eat, rest, and regain her strength to stand up again, defeating those who had harmed
her and making them taste the bitterness she had experienced.
Adrian watched her, furrowing his brow, unable to understand what she was thinking.
But Sienna cooperating with the doctor’s treatment was a good thing. The doctor had told Adrian more
than once that if she continued to be so depressed, she would eventually die of depression.
This illness could not be cured with medication. The patient needed to break free from the dark world
imprisoning her.
Otherwise, her wounds would not heal but would only worsen.
“How do you want to live well?”
Hearing Adrian’s tone soften, Sienna’s eyes flashed slightly, and she calmly replied, “You keep me
locked in this room all day. I’ll suffocate. At least give me my phone back, so I can read the news.”
Phone?
Upon hearing this, Adrian immediately became guarded.
He would not let Sienna leave, so he wouldn’t allow her to communicate with the outside world either.
She couldn’t leave the Olson manor, so she naturally wanted to use communication devices to collude
with others.
“Fine,” Adrian couldn’t help but sneer, quickly agreeing, “I’ll give you your phone.”
