Chapter 790
Daniel hummed in response.
"I need to go to the office. Harvey has something urgent for me," Sienna said.
"Today..." Daniel started to speak but then paused.
It was such an important day. He had dressed up and planned everything perfectly to celebrate with her.
He had booked a table at a high-end restaurant for lunch, followed by a private yacht trip where they could enjoy the beautiful seascape.
In the evening, they would have dinner on the yacht while enjoying the night scenery. After that, he had arranged a stay at a five-star hotel's penthouse suite.
"Is it really urgent?" Daniel asked as he was in a real dilemma.
Sienna was unaware of his plans, so she nodded. She said, "Yes, it's quite urgent. I've received a lot of messages about it. It's probably related to the plagiarism lawsuit." "Doesn't he know you're getting married today?"
"I didn't tell him."
Daniel was disappointed again. He exhaled softly, then took out his car keys. He said, "I'll drive you."
Sienna nodded in agreement.
Half an hour later, they arrived at her office building.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
"You can go back. You don't need to wait for me," Sienna said, worried that he might get bored waiting.
Daniel walked Sienna to the building while holding her hand. He said, "Let's go in together."
They walked into the company lobby side by side.
Everyone's eyes were on Sienna, but their gazes were mostly on the person beside her.
Sienna couldn't help but glance at Daniel. He indeed drew a lot of attention.
He had a rugged, masculine handsomeness with deep and striking features. His entire presence exuded powerful energy, a blend of wildness and stern righteousness.
If he were dressed in military uniform and armed, he would have the kind of presence that could make countless young ladies and married women alike scream with excitement. They arrived at Harvey's office.
Seeing Sienna accompanied by the same man from last time, Harvey quickly stood up to greet them.
"Sienna, come in and have a seat," Harvey said with a welcoming smile. "Your friend came along too?"
Daniel unbuttoned his suit jacket with one hand before sitting on the sofa. He corrected Harvey in a serious tone, "Not a friend, but her husband." Harvey was momentarily stunned.
Sienna felt a bit embarrassed, and her cheeks slightly flushed. She said, "Yes, we just got our marriage certificate today."
Harvey was stunned for a few
seconds, then quickly extended his hand to Daniel. He congratulated him, "Congratulations on your marriage! I hope you two wil stay happy together."
Daniel's expression softened slightly as he shook Harvey's hand. He said politely, "Thank you."
Sienna asked, "Harvey, what was so urgent that you needed to see me?"
Harvey's expression suddenly turned serious. He sighed heavily as he stared at Sienna. He asked, "Do we really have a chance of winning this lawsuit?" "Whether we win or lose, we have to fight," Sienna responded firmly.
Harvey was resigned, shaking his head. He asked, "Haven't you been online these past two days?"
"No, why?" she asked.
"The book that was plagiarized has
already been signed for a film
adaptation. Recently, they've been
promoting the lead actors and
generating buzz. They used your plagiarism case for publicity.
"Although the lawsuit hasn't even started yet, you're already being attacked all over the internet."
Sienna quickly pulled out her phone and logged online.
It was true that her account was flooded with hateful comments, skyrocketing from dozens to tens of thousands.
The private messages were even more vile and filled with abusive language.
The topic of her alleged plagiarism had shot up to second place on the trending list. The lead actress cast for the film adaptation turned out to be Vivian. Everything seemed to be calculated.
Sienna's face turned pale. She
slowly clenched her fists as
indescribable anger welled up inside her. Suddenly, Daniel held her hand to softly loosen her clenched fist. She looked up at him.
His gaze was intense yet tender. He reassured her, "Don't worry. I'm here with you."
