The Wrong Woman

Chapter 666

Eastville, known for its simplicity and natural beauty, was a thriving town nestled within a smaller city in Norvania.

It was where Sienna grew up, and life there was quieter and more affordable compared to bustling cities like Phoenicia, making it a popular choice for retirees.

Sienna's family resided in Eastville, and her mother, Shelly, owned a corner store in the local market.

After Sienna's father passed away, Shelly took charge of the family business by herself, with Sienna helping out occasionally. Felix never helped out at all. Instead, he often took money from Shelly. Sienna prepared dinner, packed it into a thermos, and headed to the corner store to deliver it to Shelly. Upon entering, she noticed Shelly discreetly wiping away tears.
