Chapter 56 The Mckinney Family
Chyl City, one of the three major cities around Imperial City, was on par with Jany City.
Within a grand courtyard, Sienna’s lashes fluttered slightly, then she opened her captivating eyes, which held an otherworldly quality.
Her beautiful, blond hair framed her lovely face, which had a hint of rosy hue.
Moving her body slightly, Sienna felt at case on the ancient wooden bed.
After two months of unconsciousness, the faint light made her uncomfortable. She squinted and raised her hand to shield her eyes, clearly examining her hands.
Instantly, Sienna regained her senses, wondering, “Where am I?”
“Are you awake?” A strange, cold voice sounded.
Sienna looked to the side, where a man was walking toward her. In the sunlight, she saw his sharply chiseled facial features and was struck by his breathtaking handsomeness.
Sienna was a bit dazed and instinctively retreated. Her nerves were taut as she quickly searched her memories for information about this man. But soon, she realized that she had never met him
before.
“Let me introduce myself. I’m your cousin, Malcolm Mckinney,” he said..
Noticing Sienna’s slightly bewildered and fearful expression, Malcolm forced a somewhat
unnatural smile, which did not match his domineering face.
Sienna could tell that this man was trying hard to appear friendly.
“Cousin?” Sienna questioned, her mind blank, feeling uneasy and fearful. She had no idea that she
had a cousin.
“You’ve been unconscious for two months, and your body still needs to recover slowly. I know you
may not be able to accept too much at the moment, but it’s still necessary to make sure you
understand.”
Malcolm approached with a smile, adjusting the height of the pillow behind her in a very
considerate manner.
Sienna remained tense and alert, like a startled bird. Perhaps her mind was still catching up
after
just waking up. Meanwhile, Malcolm had brought over a bottle of herbal medicine and handed it to
her.
Observing Sienna’s hesitation, Malcolm brought the bottle to his lips and took a sip.
“Go ahead and drink it,” he urged.

Upon hearing his words, Sienna involuntarily took the herbal medicine that was offered to her and
drank it, while Malcolm watched her intently.
Malcolm’s gaze softened a bit.
“I’m sorry it took so long for me to find you. You’ve been through a lot.”
Sienna remained silent. She was an only child and didn’t have any other relatives in the McKinney
family in Jany City.
Now, Sienna felt that all her memories were in disarray. Her memories were full of that big fire and everything she had experienced that day, the howling of the cold wind at night…
The image of Adrian leaving with Janice….
Everything was flooding Sienna’s mind, and she covered her head in pain, hitting it hard, trying to
calm down.
Malcolm felt sorry for her and had an inexplicable urge to comfort her. “Sienna, you’re safe now. Don’t be afraid,” he said, soothing her and gently patting her back.
Then, Malcolm took out a file from a nearby table. “Take a look at this. Although we’re distant relatives, we’re still related. To be precise, our McKinney family is not just in Jany City. The true
McKinney family is in Imperial City.”
As Malcolm finished his sentence, Sienna lifted her gaze, her eyes falling on the document in front
of her.Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
She had a moment of confusion…
But as she looked at the words on the paper and listened to Malcolm’s words, she felt that this sudden change wasn’t fake.
“You’ve been recovering steadily for the past two months since you woke up. Don’t worry too much about everything for now. Let’s go downstairs and have some food. I’ll have someone prepare your meals every day. You can decide whether or not you like them.”
As he spoke, Malcolm stood up and held out his hand to help Sienna up. She hesitated for a moment. but eventually allowed him to lift her up.
Sienna looked around and noticed that the decor of the entire building was simple and elegant, not overly luxurious.
This was a good place for Malcolm to cultivate his mind and body.
In the lobby on the first floor, there was a marble table filled with light-tasting food.
Although Malcolm was somewhat inexperienced, he was attentive to Sienna’s needs, which made her feel somewhat uncomfortable.

After all, it was hard for outsiders to imagine that this business tycoon had such a gentle side.
“You can consider this place as your home, and if you need anything, just let me know,” Malcolm said.
“Did you save me?” Sienna asked after a long silence, looking at Malcolm. This was the first sentence she uttered since she woke up.
That big fire had almost destroyed everything of hers, and that incident had completely shattered her world.
Sienna didn’t know who the last person to appear was or who had saved her.
With Sienna’s gaze fixed on him, Malcolm shook his head and took out his phone to make a video call. Soon, a very familiar face appeared on the screen.
“Donald?”
Sienna exclaimed in surprise, thinking, “Do they know each other?”
“Sienna, let me reintroduce myself. I’m Donald Mckinney, your cousin. I’m sorry for keeping this from you for a while, and it’s a bit abrupt to meet like this,” Donald said.
Sienna looked at Donald on the phone with surprise and then glanced at Malcolm sitting across from her. For a moment, the faces of the people before her overlapped, and she felt that they were
somewhat similar.
She seemed to understand everything.
“You…
“Do you mean to say that you are my cousin?” Sienna asked in disbelief.
She understood that she had family other than her father in the world, and although she was
surprised by this revelation, she felt overjoyed.
“The McKinney family is much more extensive than you imagine, and we are aware of what
happened to you. From now on, you don’t have to be afraid and can do what you want boldly. We will
support you in everything.”
Malcolm said, his voice firm and unwavering.
“We have also sent someone to your father, and we will have results soon,” Donald added from the
other side of the screen.
Sienna was taken aback, her eyes wide with fear and uncertainty.
“My mother…”

She murmured, remembering the box she had protected before she had almost died. She trembled at the thought and didn’t want her mother to experience death again.
“Don’t worry. I have already secured it in your room,” Malcolm reassured her, noticing her
distress.
“Choose a good day to bury Aunt Lara,” he continued.
After listening, Sienna hurriedly ran up the stairs without hesitation. She looked at the black box. placed beside her bed and collapsed. She approached with all her strength and picked up the black
box.
Sienna slowly slumped to the ground and curled up, holding the black box tightly in her arms.
“Mom… I’m glad I didn’t lose you. I’m sorry. It won’t happen again.”
Sienna murmured, her eyes shimmering with tears, as she tightly embraced the box in her arms.
“It’s all my fault. I couldn’t protect you properly.”
Her expression fell directly into Malcolm’s gaze as he caught up with her.
This made him recall all the various deeds that were carried out during the investigation of Sienna, and the man from Jany City. Adrian… That man was similarly not to be underestimated.
