To Adrian, this little trick was nothing more than child’s play.
Sienna wanted to play games with him, but she didn’t know who she was dealing with.
Two days later, Adrian’s assistant returned Sienna’s phone to her.
The first thing Sienna did was turn on the phone, and as expected, the SIM card had been removed by Adrian’s assistant.
It was just an empty shell. Although it could connect to the internet, it couldn’t make calls.
Sienna didn’t panic but instead pulled a card from a gap in her pillow and quickly installed it. Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
Sienna knew early on that Adrian had no intention of truly fulfilling her wishes.
He only wanted to torment her, seeing her in unbearable pain and endless tears. How could he really give her a phone?
But she was prepared, and during her limited outings, she managed to get a SIM card.
As long as she could contact the outside world, there was a possibility of escape and hope for saving her father.
After inserting the SIM card, Sienna hesitated for a moment before entering Donald’s number.
His presence at her mother’s funeral left a profound impression on her that day.
She had an inexplicable feeling that he could help her.
Moreover, Donald was a lawyer. If he knew about her father’s case, he might be able to represent him and clear his name.
Sienna had an exceptional memory. Even though Adrian had thrown away Donald’s business card, she remembered his phone
number.
The phone connected after a few dozen seconds, and Donald’s deep voice came through. “Hello, this is Donald Read from Read
Law.”!
Sienna held the phone tightly, as if holding on to her last hope. She took a deep breath before whispering, “Hello, I’m Sienna.”
Donald was evidently taken aback. After pausing for half a minute, he replied, “I remember you. You are Adrian’s wife.”
Adrian’s wife…
Sienna bitterly smiled, feeling that no title could be more ironic.
What kind of Mrs. Olson was she? The whole world knew how Adrian humiliated her.
He auctioned her off, locked her in a water tank, and played with her at his whim.
Her life meant nothing to Adrian. Even when she was in pain, spitting blood, he only cared about the sudden appearance of
Janice.
“I hope you can help me with something.” Sienna closed her eyes, trying to stay calm and not be overwhelmed by painful memories. “I’m at my wit’s end.”
Aside from Donald, Sienna didn’t know who else to turn to. She was isolated and everyone thought she was bad luck. No one dared to lend her a hand.
Adrian’s presence was like a dark cloud, enveloping her and preventing anyone from approaching her.
“You want to talk about your father, right?”
Donald seemed to know what Sienna wanted to say, slowly asking, “I heard some news. His situation in prison is terrible. If he’s not released and treated soon, he might not make it.”
Hearing about Stanley’s dire situation, Sienna’s heart clenched. She urgently asked, “How could this be? My father has always been in good health, even if…”
Sienna suddenly stopped speaking, her eyes blankly staring at the floor-to-ceiling window across the room.
No matter how strong Stanley was, he could not avoid being targeted.
Stanley was in prison, no different from being in a cage, and the harsh treatment he received was likely similar to her own.
“Recently, Mr. Mckinney was caught evading taxes, and the authorities decided to increase his sentence,” Donald continued, “His situation will only get worse.”
“How could this happen…”
Tears streamed down her face as Sienna murmured, seemingly losing herself.
