Chapter 300
After a light lunch, Joyce fell asleep. Sienna’s phone chimed with a message from Josiah: [I’m downstairs. He had come to deliver the medication Sienna put on a coat and went downstairs to get the package from Josiah.
Every week.
He pointed to the bag. “The pillbox has a label that shows the dosage instructions. Joyce will also need to get injections at the hospital every I’ll remind you when it’s time.”
Sienna nodded, picking up the bag to leave. Thank you for your help. You should get back to work.”
“Sienna“Josiah stopped her, concern in his voice. “If anything comes up, don’t hesitate to call me.”
“Alright”
“Sienna…” Josiah hesitated, his brow furrowing as if he was trying to find the right words.
Sienna, confused, smiled lightly. “What’s up? Why so serious?”
Josiah looked away, his eyes lingering on her flat abdomen. “How’s your health?”
Having recently had surgery for an ectopic pregnancy, Sienna knew that even the best surgery could still affect her body. Tm fine.” Sienna replied.
“That’s good to hear.” Josiah nodded, but his expression still showed concern. He clearly had more on his mind.
His hesitation was starting to annoy Sienna. “What do you really want to say?
Josiah clenched his jaw, gathering courage. “You heard Xenon’s comments today. What are your plans?” Though he didn’t say it directly, Sienna understood he was asking about whether they should have another child.
Sienna frowned, thinking it over. “It’s too early to think about that now, we should wait at least six months”
“Tunderstand.” Josiah’s gaze was serious as he pressed on, “And what about after six months?”
Sienna paused. Josiah continued, “For Joyce’s sake, we need to think ahead. What if we still can’t find a donor by then?”
That would leave only the final option. Sienna’s heart tightened as she knitted her brows, “What do you mean by thinking ahead!” She wondered if he hinted at getting back together.
“Don’t be alarmed.” Josiah had spent enough time with Sienna to understand her thoughts; her expression said it all.
With a bitter laugh, he said, I won’t force you into anything. What I mean is, if we plan to have another child… you need to make sure yo is good.”
Sienna nodded. “Yes,”
“Now,” Josiah said, his expression lightening as he got more direct. “I think it’s wise for you to see a doctor”
“Me?” Sienna asked, puzzled.
your health
“Tve looked into it, and ectopic pregnancies can come back. If you want another child, you need to take care of your health. Even if you don’t want to get pregnant, looking after your health is still important.”
His thoughts were careful and sensible. Sienna’s emotions were mixed, but she recognized the truth in what he said. Finally, she agreed “Wonderful” Josiah seemed relieved as he took a deep breath. “I’ll take care of the arrangements. Ut find you a good doctor.” He then glanced at his watch. I have a meeting this afternoon; I need to go.”
Sienna stood still, watching him get into his car and
d drive away. A strange feeling of disorientation washed over her
She thought, “Is this thoughtful, rational Mr. Flynn really the same as the cold him from before? Yet, his recent kindness only made my painful memories of him even stronger!
As the cold wind blew, Sienna pulled her car Lighter around herself and headed indoors.

Chapter 300
Later, Sienna visited the television n station. Shannon called to let her know that she had left some things at the station, which they had set aside for ber to pick up
When Sienna arrived, she found Shannon, collected her belongings, and got ready to leave. While waiting for the elevator, she bumped into a familiar face.
Derek was on the phone, urgency in his voice. “No, this istri beautiful enough! How beautiful does it need to be? Fine.. I understand…” After hanging up. Derek exclaimed in frustration, “Damn it! Why don’t you find someone yourself??”
Derek Sienna waved lightly, smiling softly. “Hello, it’s been a while,”
“Sienna Derek’s surprise was clear as he took her hand. “It’s been way too long! How have you been?”
I’m doing quite well.”
“What brings you to the station“”
Sienna briefly explained her situation. Derek’s eyes widened in surprise. “So you’re not in Lightning Dance anymore?”
Sienna confirmed with a nod. At that time, she hadn’t known about her ectopic pregnancy. But due to personal issues, she had caused Brenda a lot of trouble. Returning to Lightning Dance was impossible.
“Oh dear. Derek’s eyes brightened as he squeezed Sienna’s hand. “Sienna, you’ve got to help met
Sienna was confused. “But Derek…
“I mean it!” Derek insisted. “Mr. Carter is struggling with h his new film. There’s a character described as the epitome of beauty… He’s turned down so many actresses, saying they’re not beautiful enough!”
Sienna’s interest was sparked. “Siennal” Before she could think more, Derek blurted, “You have to help me! If it’s you, Mr. Carter will definitely be happy!”
Sienna instinctively refused, “Derek, I can’t…
“Don’t worry!” 1
Derek understood her fears. “This time, you won’t need to meet the producer. Mr. Carter can make the decisions for this film!”
Sienna hesitated, wondering how she could say no. “What’s stopping you?” Derek urged. “You’ve left Lightning Dance. The role isn’t big, and you’ll get paid. Why not take the chance?”
Sienna’s brow furrowed; she was torn over her decision. “Sienna, please, just help me, Derek begged, clasping his hands together. “It’s a small role, and it doesn’t mean you’re entering the industry. Would you think about it?”
Sienna was conflicted. Derek had helped her in the past, and right now, her schedule was open. “Well..” Sienna bit her lip. “Can I have a little time to learn more about this?”
“Absolutely!” Derek grabbed his phone. “Il send you the address, and come see me tomorrow morning!”
“Alright I guess that’s okay
“Thank y
you. Sienna! You’ve literally saved my life!”
