Daniel no longer asked about Sienna''s well-being, showed any concern, or affectionately called her Sisi. He had be noticeably indifferent toward her over the past 20 days.


    "What?" Sienna reached for the documents and flipped through them. She found a property transfer agreement. Continuing to flip through the papers, she stumbled upon a check for 20 million dors. Confused, she asked, "Daniel, what are these for?"


    Daniel stayedposed, his demeanor as calm as water. "They''re for you."


    "Why are you giving me money and a house?" Sienna''s mind refused to entertain the possibilities. She trembled as she set the documents down on the table with care.


    Daniel reclined on the couch with his eyes fixed on Sienna, a depth of emotion within them. He couldn''t bear to continue speaking.


    Though unsure if Sienna would feel heartbroken, he couldn''t ignore the heavy burden of his heartache, which made finding the right words incredibly challenging.


    After a moment of silence, Daniel doubled over in pain, his hands shielding his face as he let out a deep sigh. Afterposing himself, he uttered, "Sienna, I''m returning to Phoenicia."


    Sienna''s heart throbbed, but she hid her feelings. Her fingers tightened on her clothes as she softly replied, "My job is pretty flexible. Wherever I am, I can manage as long as I have aputer. I''lle with you to Phoenicia-"


    Before she could finish, Daniel cut in, "Sienna, let''s break up."


    Sienna''s chest tightened, a sharp ache piercing through her. Her entire body went numb, tears pooling in her eyes. Yet, she fought to maintain a rigid smile and feignedposure.


    "Why are you bringing that up out of nowhere? You said you loved me, didn''t you? You talked about marrying me."


    "I''m sorry, Sienna." Daniel''s eyes reddened, his voice heavy with regret and resignation.


    His apology felt like a blow to Sienna''s heart. She trembled with agony as tears continued to well up beyond her control.


    She tightened her fists, trying to appear strong as she forced a smile. Tears streamed down her pale cheeks.


    Sienna struggled to keep her voice steady as she spoke, "I already knew I wasn''t good enough for you. I won''t cling on to you, but can you tell me why you want to end things?" Daniel closed his eyes, anguish enveloping him. He controlled his emotions and spoke calmly, "The initial excitement faded, and I no longer feel the same.


    "I''ve lost the urge tomit to you. I would return to Phoenicia and marry someone from a more suitable background."


    Sienna lowered her head and discreetly brushed her tears away. "I understand."


    Eventually, she realized she had aimed too high and was too naive with her outlook.


    Sienna worried her emotions would overwhelm her if she lingered any longer. She swiftly grabbed her backpack and rose to her feet.


    "I won''t take your house or your


    money. Throughout our time together, you''ve supported my family tremendously. I''ve been grateful and content. Thank you. I''ll gather those valuable gifts you''ve given me and return them to you."


    Daniel looked at Sienna sorrowfully, his heart weighed down with emotion. "Sienna, please ept them. I''m offering you the money and the house topensate for the end of our rtionship."


    "If anyone owespensation, it''s me to you. I''ll repay you over time for the money you lent Felix for his hospital bills."


    Daniel rose from his seat and moved quickly toward her. "Sienna..."


    Sienna took a few steps back. Her heart was in turmoil, and her voice trembled as she said, "Daniel, if this is what you truly want, I''ll respectFrom N?velDrama.Org.
