The Wrong Woman

"You..." Shelly felt her heart soften at his words. She was deeply moved and at a loss for words.

"I haven't shared these thoughts with Sienna. I'd appreciate it if you didn't either, to spare her any trouble," Daniel said.

He nodded politely before saying goodbye. "Mrs. Lawson, I'll be taking my leave now. I won't take up any more of your time." With that, Daniel turned and walked away.

Returning to her senses, Shelly hurriedly followed him while holding the gifts out. "Mr. Morrison, please take these with you." Daniel was already in his car. He politely replied, "Mrs. Lawson, those are all for you. They're not too valuable. Please keep them."

He waved before driving off.

Shelly stood by the door, utterly stunned. She glanced down at the hefty bags of gifts clutched in her hands.

Out of all the men Sienna had dated, Daniel stood out as the most handsome and courteous. It was unfortunate that he worked as an anti-drug officer.

Shelly returned to unwrap the gifts she'd received. She guessed they might be coffee beans, dairy products, or food.

However, when she tore into the packages, she was shocked to find they were all pricey items.

There was a big box filled with pricey supplements, another containing caviar, a package of high-end skincare products, and a stunning set of pearl jewelry that looked like it cost a fortune. Shelly was utterly shocked by the sheer value of these gifts.

Even though Sienna and Daniel had broken up, he still gave Shelly such extravagant presents. It made Shelly wonder if Sienna hadn't ended things with him, what other lavish gifts might he have given her. Shelly anxiously dialed Sienna's number.

Sienna finally answered, dragging herself out of bed to pick up the
