Chapter 341
“Is this some new way of rejection?” Josiah looked at her, both annoyed and amused.
Had it not been for the constant rejections he had faced over the period, he would have likely lost his temper by now, “Awakening Imminent?” he
said
He chuckled softly, “That’s right. I have awakened now, and I want to be with you. So why are you unwilling to be with me? Why can’t you have an imminent awakening too!”
Sienna was taken aback, her mouth agape.
Josiah gave her a light scolding look and said. T’m just giving you unnecessary information, causing trouble for myself” He picked up his forks and continued to serve her food. Sienna looked at the piece of meat he was serving and said. “So much fat?”
Tik Josiah frowned, “Where is it too much? You won’t touch a bit of fat
As he chided her, he picked up a knife and fork, cut away the fatty part, and casually tossed it into his own mouth. He then placed the lean piece into her bowl, saying, “Not fatty anymore.”
Sienna
looked at him, momentarily speechless, and her appetite was gone
The lunch break was limited, and after eati
eating, Josiah drove Sienna back to the film set. The car stopped, and Josiah leaned in, embracing Sienna.
Josiah cupped the back of her head with his palm and said, “I’m leaving soon. I’ll call you when I get to Lochland.”
He released her, undid her seatbelt, and gazed at her with reluctance in his eyes, saying, “Wait for me to come back.”
Sienna got out of the car and turned to walk inside. She could feel Josiah’s gaze from the car behind her, hot and intense.
She didn’t look back, quickened her pace, and jogged into the film set.
After that day. Sienna continued her routine of going back and forth between Sunshine Neighborhood and the film set, nothing out of the ordinary.
One day. Sienna’s scenes wrapped up early. On her way back to Sunshine Neighborhood, she stopped by the supermarket to according to the shopping list Tara had sent her.
k up some items
After finishing her shopping, she left the supermarket. The bus stop was across the street. Sienna was carrying her bags, walking towards the intersection. Along the way, a silver–gray Pagani stopped beside her. It was Cedric’s car. She recognized it
The window rolled down, revealing Cedric’s handsome and refined face, with a faint smile, saying, “Sienna, Long time no see.”
“Cedric,” Sienna smiled, “Long time no see”
“Where are you headed?” Cedric glanced at the bags in her hand, saying: “Back to Sunshine Neighborhood! Let me give you a ride. “No need.” Sienna declined with a smile, I’ll take the bus. It’s just two stops, very quick. I won’t trouble you, go about your business” Between them, they could only be acquaintances.
*Alright then, Cedric understood her meaning, gave a bitter smile, and said, “I be on my way then
“Okay,” Cedric started the car, reluctantly watching Sienna through the rearview mirror.
Suddenly, his gaze froze. ALLO
dragging her into the vehicle.
van stopped in front of Sienna, the door swung open, and an arm reached out, grabbing Sienna and quickly
“Sienna Cedric was shocked, breaking out in a cold sweat, and immediately tried to turn back. But as he attempted to make a U–turn, he was blocked from behind.
The cars behind honked their horns, saying, “What are you doing? No U–turns here. Do you even know how to drive?”
“Hurry up! Don’t block the road!” someone shouted.
Chapter 341
Cedric was frantic with worry: When he looked again, the black van had already disappeared from sight.
In the car. “Stop the car now.” Sienna, suddenly kidnapped, was in a panic, pounding on the back of the seat, saying, “I said stop the car!”
The driver glanced at her through the rearview mirror and said, “Ms. Shaw, I suggest you calm down. It will save you some energy.
Sienna thought. ‘Ms. Shaw? He knows who I am. He has a purpose for abducting me? Sienna was stunned,
“Who are you?” Sienna asked. She couldn’t think of any enemies she might have. Could it be the Fischer family again!
“Did the Fischer family send you? Reyna or Tania“” Sienna said.
The driver replied. “I don’t know the two people you mentioned”
“Then who sent you?”
out Sienna’s mind was blank, saying, “What do you want to do?”
“Rest assured,” the driver glanced at her and said, “I won’t harm you. I just need to borrow you for a while. Once our boss has met with Mr. Flynn, you will be safe”
Sienna thought, ‘Mr. Flynn Josiah Flynn. It was because of him! Sienna’s hands clenched, her whole body trembling in fragments.
Suddenly, she remembered that Josiah had been injured several times, and Yvette had had an accident in Lacustria. He had said it was because of his involvement She thought. So, this person is also sent by his enemy?”
In the Lochland. Josiah had finished his business and was on his way back to Jelarrity. He held has phone, calling Sienna, but after two attempts, she didn’t answer.
He thought, Frobably she is filming? He decided not to call anymore and would go straight to the film set to pick her up once he arrived in Jeiacrity. Just as he put down his phone, it rang again
Josiah was delighted thinking Sienna had called him back, but upon checking, it was an unfamiliar number.
He thought, Who could it be? His phone was set to
nblock
spam calls. He swiped to answer, “Hello!”
On the other end, a coarse, deep, and slightly aged voice came through, “Edgar”
Josiah’s body tensed, his pupils constricted, and his hair stood on end, but his response was one of disdain. “Who are you! Wrong number?” he said, He was about to hang up.
“Wait” The same voice, with a hint of shallow amusement and unabashed threat, said, “Tve had Yvette and Sienna invited here:
Josiah’s mind went blank for a few seconds. After a few breaths, he roared, “What the hell do you want to do?
Josiah thought, “What? Josi
On the other end, the person laughed low and slow, “Can I be blamed! I was polite, had someone go to invite you to meet me, but you refused. I had no choice but to resort to this method”
“Humph“” Josiah curled his lips into a cold smile, filled with contempt and disdain.
“You really haven’t changed at all, only knowing how to bully weak women,” Josiah said.
The person on the other end didn’t mind, still speaking lightly. “Edgar, come see me
see me. I’m waiting for you”
The way he spoke made it seem like he was certain that Josiah would come to see him. Yes, that’s right. With Yvette and Sienna in his hands, Josiah indeed had no choice. Whether he wanted to or not, he had to go.
Josiah gritted his teeth in anger, saying “Where?”
“Here… The person on the other end Kave an address.
“Tin coming right away” Josiah’s face turned ashen as he hung up the phone. He instructed Zach. Zach! Change the destination to this place..
Chapter 341
“Yes, sir.” Zach replied.
The car turned around. Josiah closed his eyes just now, that person had called him Edgar. He knew, and they all knew. A distant, almost forgotten fear, long absent, came rushing back…
Snap! In his mind, the sound of a whip cracking echoed again and again. Each crack was on the back of young Josiah. He was beaten until he was bloodied, lying on the ground unconscious
But he couldn’t die. When he woke up, what awaited him was the next round of whipping.
