Chapter 379
Holding Sienna close, Josiah felt like everything else was unimportant. He would have his own family, his own loved ones.
The heart that had felt like it had hit rock bottom for days was back where it belonged.
“Sienna…” His voice trailed off just as Sienna’s phone rang
“Thone call” Sienna looked at her phone, gently extricating herself from his embrace and walking towards the door. Til take this outside”
Okay” Assuming it was a call from the film crew, Josiah nodded and didn’t give it much thought
But he was wrong; it wasn’t the film crew. It was the hospital lab, likely about the compatibility test results.
“Hello” Sienna stepped out of the hospital room, her heart pounding, holding her breath. This is Sienna.
The doctor said. The compatibility test results are back. The results show: it’s a match”
Sienna was stunned, her heart twisting sharply as her eyes quickly filled with tears, blurring her vision.
“It is “She was too emotional to form a complete sentence.
The doctor on the other end could guess and understand her emotions and spoke with a hint of a smile. “It’s true, an absolutely good piece of news. Your child can be saved.”
Sienna covered her mouth, afraid she might scream out loud, Choking back tears, she said. “Thank you.”
The doctor replied. “You’re welcome. The person you should thank is the gentleman who matched. For the specifics, please discuss it further with Dr. Nelson”
“Alright” After hanging up, Sienna clutched her phone, her hands trembling
f uncontrollably
Initially, she didn’t dare to have too much hope. After all, even she and Josiah couldn’t match with Joyce. And Conner was just Joyce’s uncle. Unexpectedly, it matched. This was incredibly good news, Joyce could be saved,

“Y” Sienna gripped the plane, feeling a complex mix of emotions towards him.
“How did il go? Conner’s tone was urgent. “Did it work?”
“Yes” Sienna slowly and clearly uttered the word.
“It matched?” Contier’s youre rose with excitement. It really matched? That’s amazing! Sienna, you won’t be in danger anymore. I can save you. You’re going to be okay, safe and healthy, and live well”
Hraning his excited voice, bir

“Why do you keep saying stuff like that? Conner sounded a bit displeased, but there was an undeniable joy in his words. A brother is supposed to

Sienna replied. “Alright.”
Before hanging up, Conner added with a smile. “Sienna, cheer up. You’re still so young; you’ve got a long life ahead. The tough times are behind you. From now on. It’s only good days waiting for you.”
“Yeah” After hanging up. Sienna closed her eyes, tears rolling down her cheeks. She thought, ‘Hopefully, Joyce will be blessed and live a new life!
She wiped her tears, went to the restroom, washed her face, and then returned to the hospital room.
It had been a while, and Josiah’s neck was getting sore from waiting “What took you so long? Did the crew ask you to go back?”
“No” Sienna shook her head and sat down on the chair beside the bed. “I have no scenes to shoot today, so I don’t need to go back to the crew.
“So that means, you can spend the whole day with me today?” The anticipation in his eyes was overflowing.
Sienna hesitated for a moment, then nodded, “Yes”
“That’s wonderful” Josiah smiled, taking her hand in his and wrapping it in his palm. “Sienna, you’re amazing”
Sienna smiled gently but said nothing.
Josiah looked at her with clear, earnest eyes, a warm smile spreading across his face. “Sienna, don’t worry, I can take care of you and Joyce. I’ll make sure you both have a good life.
With a mix of pride and shyness, he added. “The alimony I gave you back then was earned by myself.
When I get or
out of the hospital, we’ll start planning the wedding You. Joyce, and me, we’ll be a family, living together….
He continued to excitedly deuil his plans, rambling on and on.
Sienna’s eyelashes fluttered as she interrupted him, “Alright, you just got a bit better and already starting to fuss? “After this IV, you should be sleepy. Lie down and have a good rest. The more you sleep, the faster you’ll recover “Okay” Josiah obediently quietened down, nodding with a smile. “Ill listen to you.”
Sienna helped him lie down, pulling the blanket over him. “Close your eyes and sleep”
He said, “Don’t go.”
She replied, “I won’t”
Satisfied, he closed
and soon fell into a deep sleep.
The room grew quiet. Sienna watched his peaceful sleeping face, listening to his steady breathing, lost in thought.
Josiah stayed in the hospital the whole day, and the next morning, Sienna left early for the set. When she left, Josiah was still asleep. When he woke up, instead of seeing Sienna, he saw Howard sitting by his bed, peeling an apple.
Howard, why are you here?” Josiali auker
Howard
paused, almost cutting through the apple peel
peel, and I glared at Josiah. “What? You don’t want to see me? Am I some sort of dirty thing!”
That’s not what I meant Josiah shook his head, frowning. He looked around anxiously.
“Stop looking” Howard shook his head “Sienna went in the set. Look at you, acting all pitiful-
He pointed to the bedyde table. She left
Josiah looked over and saw a note on the table: [[ went to the set. I’ve got night scenes tonight, so I might not come back if it gets too late. After reading . Josiah still felt a lat down
“You only care about Sienna. What about yourself?” Howard gave him a sideways look and continued peeling the apple with a tone casual enough as st discussing the weather.
“Me?” Josiah was taken aback, not quite understanding. “What about me?”
“You’ve rested enough, haven’t you?” Howard pointed to Josiah’s head, which now had hair grown out an inch long “Once you’re discharged, go back to work at the company. You can’t keep loating around doing nothing.”
Josiah was stunned and looked at Howard confusedly. “Howard, what did you just say!”
