Chapter 308
Sienna frowned, not saying a word.
Maggie chattered on and on. “Did you hear? Yvette suddenly went missing. The manager at Fast Entertainment is really worried. They’re planning to train new talent… Sienna, this is our c chance!”
Sienna remained silent, her frown deepening. She wondered, ‘Is East Entertainment making a temporary investment? What on earth is Josiah up
Over there. Josiah’s gaze cut through the crowd and Buded precisely on Sienna. She looked like she was in a decent mood today: hopefully, little Jover hadn’t bothered her last night.
Charles greeted Josiah, “Mr. Flynn, would you like to have a seat…/”
“No, thanks,” Josiah replied with a smile, waving his hand, and saying, “I’m just an outsider, I wouldn’t want to meddle.” He glanced at his wristwatch and said. “It’s getting late. Everyone’s worked hard. I’ve ordered some afternoon tea for everyone to take a break,”
With that, he glanced at Zach Zach got the hint and opened the door, Outside, a line of couriers had arrived, carrying boxes as they entered. Everyone looked and saw that it was Tasty Bites‘ tea snacks.
Charles thanked him with a smile, “Mr. Flynn, thank you.”
“You’re welcome,” Josiah gave a faint smile and said, “You’re all making money for East Entertainment. It’s just some tea and snacks, especially for you. Mr. Carter. I need you to keep putting in the effort.”
“Mr. Flynn, you’re too kind… Josiah checked his wristwatch again and said, “Mr. Carter, I think we should wrap up for today. I apologize, but I’d like to take someone with me”
“Ah?” Charles was taken aback. He hadn’t even gotten his hands on the Tasty Bites treats yet. He quickly stood at attention and asked, “Mr. Flynn, who would you like to take?”
“Over there.” Josiah raised his eyebrows slightly and looked towards the corner where Sienna was, with a long stride, he walked towards her.
“Sienna..” Maggie was so
so nervous she could hardly swallow, saying, “Mr. Flynn is coming over! He really is here for us!”
Sienna, however, frowned and lowered her eyes. Josiah stopped in front of her, a smile playing on his lips, and said, “Let’s go, I’ve already talked it over with Mr. Camer
“Mr. Flynn.” It was only then that Maggie realized Josiah had come for Sienna. She thought. Are they still together? Hasn’t Mr. Flynn grown tired of her yet!!
Maggie tugged at the corner of her mouth, glanced at Sienna, and said, “Sienna, Mr. Flynn is talking to you” Around them, murmurs began to rise. “Who is she?”
“The new actress playing the first beauty, her name is Sienna”
Does she know Mr. Flynn?”
“Judging by her face, she doesn’t seem to. Do you! Haha…
“No wonder she got the nod from Mr. Carter… The voices were low, but a word or two could still be heard.
Sienna suddenly looked up, glaring at Josiah, but she didn’t dare to explode. If she shouted at him, who knows what rumors would fly afterward.
“Let’s go.” Josiah stared at her pouting face, feeling a bit guilty. But still, he reached out and took her wrist. Sienna instinctively tried to pull away. but considering the setting, she restrained herself.
Josiah curled his lips, leading her out of the conference room. Before leaving, he greeted Charles, “Mr. Carter, you’ve worked hard. Everyone can call it a day early today”
“Sure, Mr. Flynn.” Since he had spoken, the
spaken, there was no more to say. Once outside the conference room.
Sienna
Isilent and shook off Josiah’s hand. As expected, Josiah’s lips curved into a smile, and he gently reminded her in a warm voice, “Upset! Blaming me for showing up? Think about it, what day is it today?” Sienna thought, “What day!‘ Sienna, in her anger, couldn’t recall.

“You really are forgetful” Josiah teased, tapping her forehead lightly with his finger. “Today’s the day to see the doctor, for massaging and to pick up
some medicine. Remember now?”
Sienna was taken aback, the memory flooding back, and the anger that had built up inside her suddenly subsided.
“You” Josiah took her hand again, speaking softly, “Should 1 scold you for being careless about your own affairs, or for having a poor memory?”
Josiah chuckled and added. Fortunately, Joyce is a girl. Daughters tend to take after their fathers more, so she’ll be smart for sure. Sienna glared at him indignantly
Tm wrong.” Josiah quickly backtracked, “Shell bike after you, smart and beautiful. Come on, let’s not keep the doctor waiting. I get the feeling he’s not the most patient guy”
In Jeiacrity, few dared to talk back to Mr. Flynn. That doctor was one of them. Sienna understood the gravity of the situation and followed him into the car, but she remained sullen and silem the entire time.
Upon arriving at the doctor’s place, the same scenario played out.
The doctor saw the situation and immediately lectured Josiah, “Mr. Flynn, if you keep upsetting her like this, I suggest you don’t bother with the treatments. A bad mood will negate any benefits of the therapy
Josiah thought to himself. Just as he had expected, the doctor had a bad temper
“Go on in and lie down,” the doctor instructed, leading Sienna into the inner room. Josiah waited outside, taking the opportunity to pick up the pre- cooked medicine.
When they came out. Sienna’s face was still expressionless. Worried that she might not be feeling well, Josiah leaned down and asked softly, “Was it your first massage session? Are you okay with it?”
Sienna paused, the breath she had been holding finally releasing some of its tension. She nodded and said, “It’s fine.”
Josiah chuckled softly and said, “Let’s go.”
On the way back, Josiah suggested, “How about we have dinner together! Since you’re on medication now, you should eat something light. How about we go to Soup Bowls! You used to love their porridge, right”
“Josiah,” Sienna suddenly turned her head, looking at him steadily. She asked bluntly, “What do you want! Stop beating around the bush and just tell me, okay!”
“Hmm?” Josiah’s hand on the steering wheel tightened slightly, his face a picture of mild amusement as he replied. “What makes you say that?”
Sienna gave a faint, cold laugh and said, “The temporary investment, parachuting into the crew, ordering afternoon tea for the whole team, and taking me away in front of everyone like that. You didn’t do all that for nothing, did you?
“You’re talking about all that, huh!” Josiah nodded, his smile slowly fading. He countered, “What do you think I want?”
“To pursue me.” Sienna didn’t hesitate for a second, stating her guess. “Right?” she asked.
“Right.” She asked quickly, and he answered just as swiftly, the two of them like a fast–paced Q&A session.
Sienna was taken aback, pausing for a moment before she suddenly smiled and said, “I can see that you love Joyce very much. Probably, it’s just a natural instinct of blood relations. You loved her even before you knew she was your daughter. But”
She continued, “You don’t need to waste your time on me for Joyce’s sake.”
“Joyce?” Josiah was bewildered, a deep furrow appearing between his brows. He said, “You think I’m being nice to you, making such a public show of pursuing you, all because of Joyce?”
“Yes,” Sienna nodded without hesitation.
“Sienna… Josiah began.
Sienna quickly added, “Probably not entirely because of her”
Sienna looked at him, her expression and tone gentle, as she said, “You might have a bit of a liking for me. I’m not the same as I was four years ago. I’m not as annoying to you as I used to be…

“Anyway, since you can’t be with the one you truly love, I guess I’m just good enough for you to make do with, plus we do have a daughter.” Sienna
