Chapter 99. Deep Regret (+18)

Making love with Daniel was the most terrible thing Sienna could agree with. She regretted what she did last night with him. How could she fall into his cruel temptation all over again?
She should have stopped herself from being touched wildly by his manly fingers. She tried to fight back, but her body disagreed. Her body was really craving to be touched last night.
She didn’t know what was wrong with herself. Was the sensation inside of her got triggered after Nolan kissed her the other day?
She wondered if that was the case. Nolan’s face kept on popping inside her head. And she didn’t know why she kept remembering Daniel’s cousin.
This was all just another terrible nightmare for her. She was trapped in the feeling of lust. And between two men. How could she be like this?
The only way to stop it was one thing. She had to ask Daniel to divorce her for sure. But how could she ask him to divorce her if she kept on falling into his seduction?
She had been contemplating the whole thing since she woke up this morning. And she had been questioning whether Daniel was really in love with her or he was just merely obsessing to have her like his damn property.
In the afternoon, Daniel had to go to the office. He hired a maid to come over his penthouse even it was Tuesday. He usually only hired the maid to work during the weekend. But this time, he wanted the maid to keep an eye on Sienna while he was away. And he also wanted the maid to clean up every room at the same time.
Daniel had an urgent meeting that day. He had to leave. And he wanted Sienna to be a good loyal wife and stayed home for him.
After Daniel had gone to the office, Sienna was left alone with the maid in the penthouse.
That maid looked young and pale. Her body looked very skinny as if she didn’t eat well these days. She was an obedient maid. She really worked hard when cleaning every room.
Sometimes, Sienna was watching her quietly from across the room. And when Sienna was making a cup of coffee in the kitchen, she still watched her well warily again.
That maid worked really quietly. She only smiled and nodded friendly at Sienna whenever they came across each other.
Sienna could feel how tired that maid must be while cleaning this penthouse. Daniel only hired one maid to manage the chore in this big place. How could Daniel be so selfish like this? And his main purpose in hiring this maid was just to spying on Sienna.
After a while, Sienna pitied the maid that looked really tired cleaning all the rooms.
And finally, when they came across in the living room, Sienna called her out.
“Hey, you can go home now. Leave. And have a good rest,” Sienna ordered her firmly.
The maid stared back at her. She looked a little bit frightened that she quickly stared down again at her own feet.
“Hey, it’s okay, just go home,” Sienna assured her.
The maid shook her head to refuse her.
Sienna crossed her arms defensively, and then she said, “You look tired. I don’t want you to faint here. You will give me goosebumps. And you will give me a burden if I have to get you to a hospital later.”
The maid immediately stared back at her and murmured, “But… but… Ms. Wilson, I can’t just leave.”
Sienna narrowed her eyebrows bafflingly at her. “Why?”
The maid looked trembled when she was about to say something.
But then Sienna quickly shouted out, “This penthouse already looks damn clean. Just go home and have a rest.”
“But… Ms. Wilson, if I go home now, Mister Wilson will be angry at me,” she said, terrified.
Sienna sighed. “No, he will not. Don’t worry.”
“But… Mister Wilson has ordered me to be at your company until he will return home,” the maid tried to be obedient.
Sienna looked at her, annoyed.
“So, you are afraid of Daniel Wilson?” Sienna wondered.
The maid stared down and nodded assuredly. “Ye… yes, Ms. Wilson.”
“Don’t be. I can talk it out with him later. Just go home and leave me alone now,” Sienna ordered her again. “Everything will be just well, okay?”
The maid looked at her for a second, begging for a mercy.
However, Sienna forced her to go away. Therefore, the maid couldn’t argue back when Sienna was getting angry at her.
Afterward, Sienna escorted her to walk to the foyer. As she opened the double door and said goodbye to the maid, Sienna saw the familiar figure just came at the terrace.
The maid froze at the doorsill when she also saw the handsome face that greeted the two of them. That was Nolan Wilson. He came over again.
Sienna held her breath for a second. She felt like a lot of butterflies in her stomach when he smiled widely at her.
“Hello, Sienna…” and then he nodded at the maid and smiled friendly.
The maid nodded politely in return.
And then Sienna quickly said, “Go home now. I will tell Daniel later.”
The maid stared at her with a frightened expression, but she didn’t dare to argue back. And finally, the maid agreed to go home and leave her that late afternoon.
After the maid left the terrace, Sienna greeted Nolan at the doorsill. She didn’t let him to enter the penthouse yet. She stood with one hand leaned on the door and other hand on her waist.
“Hey, Daniel is not home yet, sorry…” Sienna informed him. “You can come back in the evening when he will be home.”
Nolan grinned for a second. His eyes peeped at the gap of the door behind her body.
“So, are you alone in this big penthouse?” Nolan wondered.
Sienna shrugged her shoulders. She was being defensive against this man that kept on showing such a cute face like an innocent boy. She didn’t want to be seduced by him.
And then Nolan stared back at her. He looked bewildered when Sienna kept giving him a defensive vibe.
“Sienna, I’m not going to robe your money. I’m not a thief,” he was joking.
Sienna chuckled. “Yeah, I know. You’re too good to be a thief.”
“Yeah, but I can robe your heart, can’t I?” He giggled out.
Sienna gasped the air, surprised when he made such a cheesy punchline.
“Ugh, Gosh, you’re trying to make me laugh, aren’t you?” Sienna muttered.
Nolan shrugged his shoulders and pursed his lips outward for a second. And then he said, “Well, I’m not. I’m just trying to be a nice friend to you.”
She shouted back, “Okay, goodbye, Nolan…”
Nolan quickly held the door and said, “Oh, come on, let me in. I’m very thirsty.”
Sienna narrowed her eyebrows suspiciously at him.
But then he tried to convince her, “I promise I’m just going to ask you for a glass of water and then go home. That’s it.”
Sienna stared at him for a second. She tried to read his friendly expression at the time. But he looked just so innocent. How could she get suspicious with a man that looked as nice as Nolan Wilson? And he was Daniel’s cousin anyway. There shouldn’t be any problem.
Afterward, she let him to get inside.
She escorted him to the kitchen. She grabbed a cold water from the refrigerator and hurriedly poured it into the glass. And then he handed over the glass to him.
After he drunk the cold water in one big gulp, he smiled at her. He looked satisfied.
Sienna smiled in return. But then suddenly, she recalled the last conversation they both had when they stood in front of each other here in the kitchen.
*“Does your dad think that all of the Wilson are mafias?”*
*“Tell your dad to dig deeper before he made an assumption.”*
She wondered why he said that the last time they met here. And he looked kind of angry when talking about it.
For a moment, she took a deep breath and asked away, “Nolan… about yesterday…”
Nolan immediately chuckled. “About the kiss?”
Sienna flinched. And then she snapped out, “No! I was about to ask you about the Wilson family. You said that not all of them are mafias.”
Nolan clenched his teeth suddenly. He looked tensed when she brought it up again.
“Well, what do you want to know about our beloved family, Sienna?” He slightly grimaced. And then he talked again, “And yes, not all of us are mafias. I am not. And my parents are not. But if we are talking about Daniel and his inner circle, then the answer is yes.”
Sienna blinked. She was confused. “But you two are cousins to each other.”
“It all started with Daniel’s Dad. Mister Bancroft Wilson is the gang leader of the unnamed gangster that he built for more than twenty years. And some of our relatives join his black-market business. Together, they form a strong group,” Nolan informed her.
Sienna was quiet while listening to him. She was really curious to learn more about this mysterious Romanian family.
“But just so you know, it’s black business. Everything they do, always has the price. And it’s not good, trust me,” Nolan said cautiously.
Sienna walked closer to face him. And then she asked, “Why are you not joining Daniel to be a mafia?”
He clenched his teeth again. “I just want to be different from him.”
Sienna got baffled. “Why?”
Nolan was quiet for a second. And then his eyes started gazing at her lips.
When Sienna noticed where his eyes had been staring at, she flinched.
Before she could walk backward, he suddenly grabbed her jaw and kissed her lips.
