Lara McKinney sobbed with joy, hugging Sienna tightly, afraid that she would disappear if she let go.
Her mother, frail and emaciated, left Sienna feeling as if her heart had been torn apart. Sienna
struggled to speak for a long
time.
“Sienna, are you… okay? I’ve been looking for you for three whole years, but I haven’t seen you once.”
Lara held back tears, her once youthful face now worn with age, but traces of her past beauty
remained. “I heard you had surgery and lost the baby… Sienna, you’ve suffered.”
Sienna stood stiffly, and her mind went blank. She had never heard of her family searching for her over
the past three years. Was this all Adrian’s doing?
“It’s my fault. I left home three years ago. I’m sorry, Mom, for making you worry… I’m okay.” Sienna
forced herself to stand up, showing a faint smile. Seeing her once dignified and elegant mother aged so
much, her heart ached.
“Mom, what happened to your leg? Where is Dad now? Is he okay?”
Mother and daughter embraced tightly, and the brief warmth slightly calmed Sienna.
Why would Adrian let Sienna see her family?
What had happened to the McKinney family that Janice mentioned?
Sienna was terrified, fearing that she had inadvertently caused harm to her family.
Lara’s body tensed as well. Her eyes were heavy with sadness as she came back from the joy of their
reunion. The next words Lara spoke plunged Sienna into despair.
“Sienna, your father went to prison three years ago. The McKinney family is gone!”
Prison? Three years ago?

Lara spoke these words calmly, and her eyes were filled with endless sorrow.
Fear struck her mind, and Sienna curled up. Her thoughts were occupied with what could have
happened to the McKinney
family.
In an instant, Sienna felt as if she knew everything.
The McKinney family was gone just like that.
“How could Dad be imprisoned? Why? What happened to the McKinney family?” Sienna was
devastated.
“Is it Adrian? Was everything orchestrated by Adrian? After I left three years ago, the McKinney family
ran into trouble!”
“It must be Adrian’s revenge! It’s him!”
Sienna suddenly curled up, tightly holding her head, screaming and repeatedly murmuring. These facts
were branded in her heart as if it was her fault that the McKinney family was destroyed.
Sienna’s reckless pursuit of love ruined the entire McKinney family!
It was imaginable that Stanley McKinney’s situation in prison was extremely dangerous under Adrian’s
manipulation. Sienna

was all too aware of Adrian’s ruthlessness.
“Sienna! Don’t be like this… please don’t…” Witnessing Sienna’s madness, Lara broke down. Her
fragile nerves were on the verge of collapse. Lara hugged Sienna tightly, desperately saying, “Sienna…
It’s my fault. I couldn’t protect you. You have to leave this place… get away from here…”
“Mom… I’ll beg him. I’ll beg him to let the McKinney family go and release Dad.” Sienna, unable to
distinguish between tears and blood, crawled forward, tugging at her wounds.
But no matter how hard she knocked on the door, there was no response.
Lara became more desperate, wiping away her tears, and fixing Sienna’s hair. “The young lady of the
McKinney family should never lose her dignity. Sienna, remember that we are always on your side.
Don’t be afraid, and live on.”
Lara’s words made Sienna shake her head continuously. “I’m sorry… I’m sorry… It’s all my fault…”
Fifteen minutes later, the tightly closed door suddenly opened. The bodyguards took Lara away, while
Sienna’s heart raced and
she screamed.
“Adrian, I beg you! Please let my family go!”
Sienna clearly saw the determination in Lara’s eyes.
Mournful voices echoed in the vast Olson manor, making it all the more eerie.
