Chapter 6 - Sienna Arrives Expecting A Broken Man At Estate
Forty-eight hours after the kitchen confrontation, Sienna Ashford stepped out of her chauffeured town car in front of the Marchetti estate.
She wore an expensive white Chanel coat, her expression carefully crafted to project deep sorrow and unwavering devotion.
The iron security gates swung open automatically, allowing her to walk up the grand limestone steps of the mansion.
Mr. Hart, the elderly estate butler, opened the heavy front doors with his usual impeccable, emotionless composure.
“Good afternoon, Miss Ashford; Mr. Marchetti is waiting for you in the private conservatory,” Hart reported smoothly.
“Thank you, Hart; how has he been coping with his physical therapy today?” Sienna asked with practiced concern.
“He manages his circumstances with extraordinary fortitude, Miss Ashford,” the butler replied cryptically.
Sienna offered a sympathetic smile, stepping into the grand foyer while rehearsing the comforting words she planned to speak.
