Chapter 26 Are You Qualified?
Mr. Olson?
This address was like a burning match thrown into a barrel of oil, causing Adrian to explode in ant
instant.
How dare Sienna call him by this name, thinking that sending a divorce agreement would
completely sever their relationship?
As long as Adrian didn’t sign, Sienna would always be Mrs. Olson, a fact she couldn’t change.
“Sienna.” Janice saw Sienna in a black gown, her graceful figure drawing attention, suppressing her envy and jealousy. “Where have you been? Adrian has been looking everywhere for you!”
Janice’s words were not entirely false. Adrian indeed had people searching all over for Sienna, almost turning the entire city upside down.
Unable to find her, Adrian repeatedly lost his temper at his subordinates, his mood worsening day.
by day.
Janice had never seen Adrian like this before, anxiously staying by his side but unable to calm his
anger.
Janice thought Sienna’s departure would rightfully make her Mrs. Olson.
But now, Janice found Sienna to be a fishbone stuck in Adrian’s heart that no one could remove.
“Really?” Sienna heard Janice’s hypocritical words and just gave a faint smile without paying much attention. “It’s an honor to have Mr. Olson so concerned about me.”
“But everything has a cause and effect, Mr. Olson should focus more on his own affairs. Otherwise, one day, he may not even realize when his karma catches up with him.”
Sienna’s words were sharp.
Since things had come to this point, there was no need for her to hide anymore.
Adrian could brazenly bring Janice to the party, so why should she hide herself as if she had done something wrong?
Adrian stared at Sienna with a gloomy face, feeling she had grown bolder after leaving him. “You haven’t forgotten your identity, have you, Mrs. Olson?”
“Coming to a party without informing your husband. Do you think you have any shame?”
Slenna sneered and retorted without any politeness, “Compared to Mr. Olson, who brought another woman to the banquet, it’s just tit-for-tat.”
Why should Sienna feel any shame? Instead, shouldn’t Adrian be shameful for asking such a question?
Adrian’s hurt to Sienna was beyond measure, and he still wanted to humiliate her in public.
How far did he want to take things, leaving her no way out?
“Sienna.” Janice intervened at the right moment. “You must know that without an invitation, you’re not qualified to attend this party, right?”
Sienna was just a joke, and everyone could step on her
Janice watched the scene with great pleasure, sinugly holding Adrian’s arm
Sienna, of course, knew this. She just wanted to take a gamble, but it seemed she had lost.
“Sienna, it’s so cold standing in the wind. Since you can’t get in anyway, it’s better to leave early, don’t you think, Adrian?”
Janice’s voice was soft and sweet, making Sienna feel disgusted.
However, before Adrian could say anything, a suit jacket gently landed on Sienna’s shoulders.
“I told you to wear any dress you like, but you’re wearing such a thin one. What if you catch a cold in
this wind?”
Sienna was visibly startled and turned her head to see Donald’s eyes filled with amusement.
“You…”
She wanted to ask how Donald ended up here, but that question was obviously inappropriate.
Donald came to rescue her, so she couldn’t undermine his efforts.
“What took you so long?” Sienna said with familiarity, adjusting her suit jacket to appear natural. “I
was getting impatient.”
Donald’s sudden appearance surprised everyone, especially Janice, who was left speechless.
“Sienna, you said you didn’t have a male companion,” Janice couldn’t help but ask, feeling suspicious about Donald’s perfect timing. “How come you have one now?”
Tall and handsome, Donald’s silver-framed glasses accentuated his refined demeanor, clearly no ordinary person.
“Sienna was just joking, Ms. Potter. Did you take her seriously?”
As a lawyer, Donald’s response was smooth. NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.
Spotting Adrian’s heavy gaze, Donald smiled calmly. “Mr. Olson, you don’t mind Sienna being my

companion, do you?”
When did they get together?
Adrian had many questions, but it wasn’t appropriate to ask them in front of everyone.
Adrian had seen Donald at Stenna’s mother’s funeral and noticed him talking to Sienna.
Adrian never expected Donald to be the one to help Sienna escape. It was surely a well-calculated and long planned move.
“Sienna.” Not waiting for Adrian’s response, Donald gently draped his arm around her shoulder and headed toward the entrance “Let’s go inside.”
Donald presented a sophisticated invitation to the staff who had mocked Sienna earlier, “She has an invitation and a male companion. Can we enter now?”
The staff member broke into a cold sweat, never expecting Sienna to produce an invitation.
It felt like a slap in the face, and he hastily welcomed them. “Of course, of course.”
Not just anyone could receive an the staff couldn’t afford to provoke them.

Meanwhile, Adrian and Janice watched their retreating figures, both displaying annoyance.
Sienna followed Donald inside, still feeling a sense of unreality.
Although Donald was an experienced lawyer with a good reputation, he came from an ordinary
family.
How did he get an invitation to such an event? Was he hiding something from her?
As if reading her thoughts, Donald whispered in Sienna’s car, “I helped Mr. Hines win a tough case, and we have a good relationship, so he invited me to the banquet.”
No wonder. It was the party host who had given Donald the green light.
Such situations were not uncommon, and Sienna was quickly convinced.
Donald was polite and amiable, with a well-balanced sense of humor. Sienna felt comfortable around him, as if they had known each other for years.
She couldn’t help but feel as though she had seen Donald somewhere before. Looking at him with slight suspicion., she asked, “Are you sure we haven’t met before?”
They had known each other for less than two months.
However, Donald had helped Sienna with Stanley’s case, helped her escape Adrian’s control, and regain her freedom. Now, he was helping her again.
He had done so much for her that she didn’t know if she could ever repay him, making it difficult.
not to wonder if he had ulterior motives.
