The Wrong Woman
Chapter 759

"I'm okay, really," Shelly snapped. The idea of spending so much money on medical care stressed her out.

She insisted, "I'll be okay. I'll slowly start feeling better, and I won't cry anymore. Just ask the doctor to prescribe some sleeping pills for me."

Sienna held Shelly's hand and said, "Mom, you're already suffering from severe depression. Why are you only telling us now?"

Shelly lowered her head and remained silent.

Ever since her husband died, she had been feeling down. She often struggled to sleep and had vivid dreams. Worry consumed her; she was afraid of losing her children and saw no hope for the future. "Does my mother need to be hospitalized, doctor?" Sienna asked.

Shelly tensed up, feeling the weight of the expenses. "I don't want to be hospitalized. Just give me some medication. I can take pills, but I won't stay in the hospital."

The doctor, feeling helpless, could only prescribe medication for Shelly's severe depression.

On the way back, Felix received a phone call. He exclaimed excitedly, "Mom, Sienna, a girl invited me to watch a movie. You two go back first. You don't have to cook for me tonight."

"Go ahead. Go on," Shelly responded, sharing his excitement.

Felix waved and left.

How could Felix still be in the mood to go on a date when Shelly was in such a state?

Sienna was furious. She shouted, "Felix, stop right there!"

Shelly quickly grabbed Sienna's hand. "Stop it. How will Felix find a wife if he doesn't go on dates?"

"Mom!" Sienna's anger was so intense that she began to shake. She clenched her fists, watching Felix, who showed no sense of responsibility, vanish before her eyes. "You just keep spoiling him. He'll be ruined by your indulgence sooner or later."

"He'll be fine."

"You're unwell, and he doesn't even stay home to keep you company. Instead, he goes to the movies with his girlfriend. Is that reasonable?"

"I really am fine," Shelly replied impatiently.

Sienna felt completely exhausted. She drove Shelly home from the hospital.

Two months after their separation, Sienna began to adapt to life without Daniel. She moved from nightly tears to slowly forgetting.

However, sometimes, when Daniel crossed her mind, she still felt deep sadness and was lost in melancholy.

Her daily routine stayed the same-writing, publishing books, caring for Shelly at home, ensuring she took her medication and frequently visiting the corner store for errands. Shelly no longer pushed her into blind dates like before.

As late spring transitioned into summer, the temperature soared. The sun blazed down, baking the earth like an oven.

Sienna traveled between home and the corner store with her electric scooter daily. Sometimes, she ventured to the market to pick up groceries and prepare meals.

In her usual peaceful routine, an unforeseen event began to take shape.

When she got a call from the police and hurried to the station, she found Felix in handcuffs, looking scared and nervous.

Sienna's heart raced with worry. From the police, she discovered that Felix had stabbed a man with a knife.

Tears streamed down her face as she demanded answers from Felix. Why would he commit such a violent act? What had triggered this sudden eruption of violence?

Overcame with remorse, Felix

sobbed uncontrollably. "She

betrayed me. I caught her with

Sienna, please help me. I can't bear the thought of going to jail"

Sienna wasn't omnipotent. She couldn't save Felix. After learning what had happened, she left the police station with a heavy heart.

Felix, who had achieved nothing in life, had stabbed someone over a bitch. Sienna was furious at his foolishness, yet she pitied him for being in jail.

She went to the hospital with gifts to

apologize to the injured man's

family, promising compensation and hoping for their forgiveness. The

family was very emotional and

directed their anger at Sienna.

Despite multiple visits where she endured insults and mistreatment, she was unable to obtain their forgiveness.

The case went to trial two months

later. Felix was sentenced to four years and seven months for

intentional injury and was fined over 250 thousand dollars for medical expenses and emotional distress damages.
