Chapter 41
“Grandma?”
Josiah and Sienna
WEIT both stunned, wondering what it meant.
“Why are you looking at me like that?” Miranda is said to Joviah,
She took Sienna’s hand and gently patted it to comfort her. “Don’t be afraid. I do
I do this for your own good.”
Then, she turned to Josiah
She said. “If you have any conscience, you should understand what I mean. Sienna is all alone and has no one to reply to. I’ve hurt her once; at the very least, I need to make sure she’s doing well so I can be at easel”
“Miranda. Sienna furred her brows, shaking her head. “I can take care of mysel
Miranda didn’t respond to her, continuing to look at Josiah
She added, “I want to see you take good care of Sienna, like a sister. I want to see her happy and cheerful until she finds a good husband. You won’t have a good life if she’s not doing well. Do you understand what I mean?”
“Understood” Josiah nodded. Miranda implied that he should look after Sienna. Even if she wasn’t his wife, she was still part of his family,
“What’s all you have to say?” Miranda coldly questioned, her tone sharp.
Josiah understood immediately. Don’t worry, Grandma. I know what to do,”
“OK” Miranda nodded, noticing his unpleasant expression. “You look unhappy. Are you reluctant?”
“No” Josiah shook his head quickly, feeling strangely unsettled. It was like he felt relieved, yet not completely
He said, “Grandma, don’t worry, I will take good care of her as I promise to Sienna will be like a sister to me.”
When she heard the word “sister, Sienna’s eyelashes fluttered. She lowered her head, hiding a mocking smile at the corner of her lips.
“Alright then, it’s seitled: Miranda waved at him. “You can go now, I’ll spend some time with Sienna alone.”
“Okay, Grandma, you get some rest,”
“OK”
Josiah turned around and walked out, closing the door behind him. As he did, he noticed Sienna peeling an orange and offering a slice to Grandma. “Miranda, try it. It’s really sweet”
Miranda took a bite. “Yes, it’s sweet, just like you”
As the door closed, Josiah thought to
o himself,
elf, What is Sienna up to? Is she using the tactics of taking a step back to advance?
“But, she seemed genuine when she repeatedly told Grandma that she didn’t like me anymore. It didn’t seem fake.
A few days later, Sienna left Maze at midnight.
The order of performances for the Dance Queen Competition was determined by drawing lots, so some performed early and some late. Tonight wasn’t the latest; the past couple of days had gone until 1 or 2 AM.
Sienna hurried to the bus stop, hoping to catch the last bus. But after she ran there and waited for about ten minutes, no bus came. It seemed she had missed it
But it was alright. Unlike the previous situations, she was in the downtown area, where she had access to the city’s shared bicycles.
Sienna walked to the intersection, where there were no bikes on this side of the road, they were all on the other side. She stopped to wait for the traffic light to turn green
Josiah, who was about to return to Silver Beach after returning from a social gathering, also waited for the traffic light. He hadn’t eaten, so his stomach felt a linde queasy, but he had drank wine–not enough to be inebriated. He closed his eyes and rested back in his chair,
“Huh?” Suddenly, Zaid pointed out the car window. “Mr. Flynn, look; isn’t that Ms. Shaw?”

Chapter 41
At Zald’s words, Josiah opened his eyes and indeed saw her. He glanced at Zaid, Zaid, your eyesight is remarkable. You spot her every time,”
Zaid chuckled. “Isn’t it because Mr. Shaw stands out! She’s the one you notice in a crowd, and tonight she’s alone… Oh, it’s so late, what is she doing
here alone!”
“How should I know? Josiah raised an eyebrow.
At that moment, the light turned green, and Sienna dathed across the street. She pulled out her phone, scanned for a bike, and quickly pedaled away.
Zaid was curious. “Where’s she going at this late hour?”
Because of the incident last time, he didn’t dare ask Josiah if he wanted to offer Sienna a ride
A moment later, Josiah spoke up, “Zaid, follow her.”
Zaid was momentarily surprised but happily replied, “Oh, got
He hit the gas pedal and drove after her.
“Mr. Flynn, should we take sienm home?
“No need.” Josiah shook his head. “Don’t drive too fast; just follow her,”
“Oh?” Zaid was confused but didn’t question him. “Alright”
Being an experienced driver, following someone was easy for him. Zaid kept a steady distance behind Sienna and followed her to Lyceum Street. where Josiah had picked her up the other day.
Although this was an impoverished area of town, there were a few nice apartments around. However, Sienna turned her bike around a corner and changed direction.
The further they went, the more run–down the old district appeared.
Josiah subconsciously frowned, and even Zaid couldn’t help but ask. “Mr. Flynn, what is Sienna doing here? Could she be living here or visiting someonek
But no one would visit a friend in the middle of the night. And saying Sienna lived here didn’t make sense either.
After all, even though Josiah didn’t like her and even disliked her, he had never stinted on money when it came to her.
Jouah’s expression was displeased. Follow her”
“Okay, got it.”
They drove a bit further, but the road was too narrow. Zaid had to stop. “Mr. Flynn, we can’t drive any further.
Josiah’s handsome face turned gloomy as he stared coldly at the narrow alleyway, “What’s down there?”
“Well…” Zaid swallowed hard and replied honestly, “Mr. Flynn, have you forgotten? Up ahead is12th Avenue.”
12th Avenue was one of Jelacrity’s features. It was a historical neighborhood where the majority of the inhabitants were the lower class of the city, a mix of various social elements, with people from all walks of life.
It was an area with a complex mix of residents, mostly living a hard and simple life.
Josiah pushed open the car door and got out, walking into the alley. He was curious to see what brought Sienna here.
However, after that brief delay, he caught up only to find no trace of her.
“Mr. Flynn” Zaid stood behind him and reminded him, “Does Sienna possibly live here? Why don’t you just call her and ask?”
Jonah let out a mocking laugh, thinking. “Would she tell me even if I call her?
She moved away without letting him know. The last time he came to pick her up, she only asked him to wait at the entrance of Lyceum Street. He was almennt sure she lived around here.
He wondered, Interesting. Didn’t I give her a house to
to live in Why does she live in
in the shims when she could stay at the mansion?

What is Sienna thinking? Has she lost her mind? I don’t care, but Grandma has asked me to take good care of her.
Turning around, he pulled out his phone and dialed a number
“Mr. Flynn,” said Zach.
“It’s me.” Josiah instructed briefly, “Check out if Sienna is living on 19th Avenue.”
