Daniel smiled excitedly and nodded with seriousness.
"Firstly, our rtionship needs to stay a secret. We can''t make it public, and we can''t let my family know about it."
Daniel''s expression slowly became gloomy.
"Secondly, if I want a breakup, you must agree unconditionally."
Upon hearing this, Daniel became listless. He was unhappy as he looked at her.
Slowly, he tightened his grip on the steering wheel. He felt miserable because he experienced the pain of heartbreak even before it had officially begun.
Seeing his difort, Sienna panicked. "If you find it difficult, we can just remain as friends, don''t we?" she asked.
"I agree with your conditions," Daniel said firmly.
At that moment, Sienna felt her heart skip a beat. She was so nervous that she trembled.
With those words, they were officially dating. The subtle sensation made her feel confused and lost.
"Okay," Sienna responded. She didn''t know what to say or do next. She was so nervous that her body stiffened. Leaning against her seat, she gazed out the window. Daniel started the engine again and continued driving.
Ten minutester, he slowly drove the car into a residential area with a small garden.
Sienna looked around from the window.
There was a two-story house in front of her. The house was exquisitely renovated into a modern minimalist style and surrounded by a finely crafted wall.
The yard was beautifully looked after, with flowers blooming and even a small goldfish pond in the corner.
After Daniel got out of the car, Sienna followed him.
She nced around and found the decor quite different from her hometown. She asked curiously, "Where is this?"
"My house," Daniel replied before walking up to her.
"You rented it?" Sienna asked, stunned. She wondered why he wasn''t living in the dorms.
"I bought it a few months ago," Daniel replied casually. "The house was renovated with eco-friendly materials, and I live here now."
"Why did you buy a house here? Are you nning to retire here?" Sienna asked curiously.
Daniel looked at her and hesitated to speak.
The price of the house was quite cheap for him. Even if he abandoned it, he wouldn''t stand to lose.
He knew he viewed things differently
from Sienna, so he needed to think before he spoke. After a brief pause, he answered carefully, "Buying a house here is convenient for work.
"I don''t n to live here permanently. In the future, I can either sell it or give it to my future inws."
Sienna was initially surprised, but then she found it unbelievable.
Later, she thought she might be overthinking it. This small house must''ve been a steal for Daniel, and he probably hadn''t thought that far ahead about retirement.
"It''s quite beautiful," Sienna said with an awkward smile. Feeling slightly uneasy, she asked, "Why did you bring me to your ce?"N?velDrama.Org owns this text.
"Eastville isn''t a big ce. Since you don''t want to make our rtionship public, we can only have dates at home," Daniel said as he took her hand.
Sienna was startled. But his domineering attitude left her with no room to refuse. He held her hand firmly and didn''t let go.
Daniel led her into the house.
Sienna felt like her heart was about to explode. Feeling nervous, she tensed up. Hisrge hands made her feel warm.
Even though it was just a simple hand-holding, she felt waves of electricity coursing through her palm and spreading through her entire body.
Her heart pounded like crazy, and her breathing became irregr.
Daniel stopped in front of the fingerprint lock and entered a new fingerprint. He gently took Sienna''s index finger and pressed it three times, then switched to two other fingers.
Gazing quietly at his handsome profile, Sienna was lost in thought.
They had just started dating, and now he was setting up fingerprint ess for her. Wasn''t he going too fast? Would he kiss her once they were inside the house?
At that thought, Sienna''s face
flushed and her heart raced. She quickly withdrew her hand and said nervously, "... I just remembered that I have something to do. I should get going now. Next time... I''ll visit your ce next time."
