“What kind of fate is this? Josiah thought, and just for a moment, he felt a strong desire to go out and boug Joyer,
However, just as he took a step, Zach pulled him back and the elevator doors closeil right in front of him. ” we going up!”
“Mr. Flynn, where are you going? Aren’t
Josiah suddenly snapped back to reality. Yeah, where was I going? I canar to
r to find Sienna, but I got distracted by a kid
Soon, they reached the ninth floor. There were two units on this floor; one was empty, and the oder
where Sienna was staying
- poured a glass of water, and handed it to Sienna, reaching out to feel her forehead. “Seems like yo
your lever’s gone
Rose sat on the edge of the bed, pur
down a bit.
She then opened a fever patch and placed it on Sienna’s forehead. “Are you sure you don’t want any medicine?
“No need” Sienna took small sips of water and shook her head. “Tin feeling much better”
She had caught a slight cold and was running a mild fever, but she didn’t dare take any medicine. She wasn’t sure if she might be pregnant and didn’t want to take any chances with medication.
“That’s good” Rosie didn’t push further and picked up the now–warm ice pack. “I’ll get you another one. Do you want something to eat? “Tara said she made some oatmeal with side dishes.”
Sienna nodded. “Sure.”
As Rosie reached the kitchen, the doorbell rang. “Who could it be? I’m coming” She opened the door and froge, swallowing hard. “M–Mr. Flynn?” Josiah smirked coldly–her reaction said it all. Ignoring her, he strode into the master bedroom directly, “Sienna”
The moment he appeared, Sienna was startled and instinctively pulled the blanket around her, shrinking back. He’s here. He actually found his way here!
Rosic was a step behind, and she hurried over, standing in front of the bed with her arms wide open. “Mr. Flynn, please leave. Sienna doesn’t want to see you.”
“Oh?” Josiah raised an eyebrow, glancing at her as he laughed mockingly. “Do you think you can stop met
Then, something occurred to him. That’s right, I shouldn’t underestimate you. You know everything but keep it all to yourself” He waved his hand impatiently. “Step aside.”
“No. Sienna hid here because she doesn’t want to see you. Rosic was extremely nervous, her small face turning white with fear. But she wouldn’t move. Although she didn’t know exactly what had happened, friends should support each other.
osiah let out a small laugh, his patience wearing thin. He wasn’t here to waste time with distractions. He raised his hand and grabbed Rosie’s wrists. “Sorry, but if you won’t step aside, I might have to be a little forceful, he said. With a quick motion, he pulled Rosie aside and pushed her away Rosse exclaimed, stepping backward and accidentally bumping into Howard, who was pushing a wheelchair into the room. “Watch out” Howard quickly raised his hand to steady her.
Rosie was still quite shaken, and her face turned bright red–she had almost sat on Howard’s lap. Oh my goodness. A wheelchair user? Is he disabled: Did Ferush his legs?‘ she screamed in her heart.
Rosie jumped up as if she had been shocked, repeatedly apologizing. “I’m sorry, really sorry. I didn’t mean it.” Howard didn’t let go of her right away. Once she was steady, he asked. “If I let go now, you won’t fall, will you?”
“No
way.” Rosie shook her head rapidly, stumbling over her words. “I–I’m standing just fine.”
“Okay.” Howard nodded slightly, releasing her hand. His gaze drifted over Rosie but he didn’t say anything
In the room, Josiah sat on the bed’s edge. “Siena”

Chapter 181
Sienna turned away from him, her eyes closed, ignoring him completely.
Josiah wasn’t surprised by this at all. From where he sat, he could see Sienna’s damp and dightly trembling eyelashes He turned to the table nearby. which was cluttered with fever patches, an ice pack, antiseptic, and bandages. Instantly, frustration bobbled up inside him
He leaned down and, with a muffled voice, hugged Sienna along with the blanket. “I’m sorry. I’m such a fool. I’ve made you suffer.”
Sienna, still facing away from him, remembered what he did that day and felt like hitting him–she was really mad. “Get off. Let me go,” she shouted, struggling in his arms
“Sienna.“ Josiah grabbed her hand. “I know you’re angry. Just hit me. As long as it makes you feel better, Ill do whatever it
r it takes”
“Really? Do you think I won’t dare?” Sienna gritted her teeth, glaring at him. Suddenly, she raised her hand.
“Go ahead” Josiah tilted his face up. “Hit me until you feel better”
“Okay” Sienna didn’t use her hands but threw a kick instead.
Josiah grunted, bending over and holding his stomach. His voice was a bit strained as he said, “Sienna, it’s okay if you hit me, but don’t kick me randomly”
Seeing his face turn pale, Sienna wondered if she had accidentally hit a sensitive spot. She didn’t feel sorry for him, but he was still useful Holding her breath, she thought, Why? Why do I have to be so careful even with my anger towards him?“
She suddenly lost control and burst into tears. “Why did you have to come here? Can’t y Leave. Just go
you just give n
me a moment of peace? I don’t want to see you.
She wasn’t with him because she loved him. She just wanted a child and wanted to keep her distance from him the rest of the time. But he wouldn’t allow that, and on top of it all, he bullied her like that.
Sienna suddenly raised her hand and grabbed his collar, her whole body shaking. “Why is it so hard to avoid you now?”
She thought, When I was in Flirary with Joyce, barely getting by, why didn’t he come looking for us? Finding someone is so easy for him. Yet, he just abandoned me for four long years.
Hate suddenly surged in Sienna’s eyes, and she wished she could strangle him. “You jerk!” she shouted.
“Yeah, I’m a jerk.” Josiah closed his eyes tightly, not arguing at all. “Please don’t cry. It’s all my fault. I won’t ever dare to do it again.”
Sienna was taken aback by his attitude. The proud and arrogant Mr. Flynn lowered his head?”
Just then, Howard called from the doorway as he pushed his wheelchair in. “Sienna.”
Through her tears, Sienna looked up and choked out, “Howard”
Howard moved closer, lifunga handkerchief and offering it to her. “Wipe away those tears; your eyes are all swollen”
Thanks.” Sienna obediently took the handkerchief and pressed it to her eyes.
Howard gently placed his hand on her hair, just like he used to do years ago, softly patting her. He comforted her in a warm voice, “There, there, Sienna. Be a good girl and stop crying
