“Forgive me.” Sienna said with a raspy voice, pain lingering in her tone. “My voice is hoarse right now, so it might be a bit difficult for you to
understand me.
Her polite manner tugged at Josiah’s heart. His mouth felt dry, and sweat began to form on his palms.
Tm listening. Take your time; there’s no rush.” he replied gently, as if she were something delicate, too fragile for loud words.
Sienna looked at him steadily, taking a deep breath before she spoke again. “I want to talk about Joyer… have you thought about cryopreservation with liquid nitrogen”
Josiah’s eyes darkened. “We agreed to talk about this when the time comes
“Im willing to wait. Sienna reassured him. “However, I need you to promise you’ll cooperate when the time arrives
“How could I refuse to help you?” Josiah said, his brow furrowed. “Joyce is my daughter to
“Alright,” Sienna nodded. “I trust you will keep your promise.” A small smile crossed her lips. “I will contact you. If you’d like to see Joyce, you can reach Tara…”
“Sienna“” Josiah’s heart raced as if it might break apart. “Are you saying you don’t plan to see me again!”
“Yes, that’s right.” Sienna’s expression shifted slightly, showing some discontent as she touched her throat gently. “I truly want to avoid seeing you again unless it’s necessary”
“Sienna!” Josiah’s frown deepened, his voice cold with fear. This was a trap Andy had set for him. “About what happened last night…
“I already know.” Sienna said, her lashes fluttering. She didn’t need him to explain further. “Last night, Yvette was also taken along with me.”
In her clear, bright eyes, there was no anger or sorrow. “I know we were both taken, and I also know you chose to go to

She raised an eyebrow. “So, shall we confront each other?”
Josiah was speechless, unsure of how to respond. He couldn’t face the truth. “Sienna.” Josiah’s pale lips moved as he weakly apologized. “I’m sorry.” “I accept your apology. I was nearly dead because of you, Sienna said, a faint smile on her lips. “Anyone in th one, that’s just human nature.

“Sienna!” Her words felt like salt in the wound of Josiah’s heart. He had never felt such deep pain, even breathing felt like a struggle. “I do care about 59, 1urally do!”

“Sienna” Josiah’s eyes widened in shock.
“Please leave. I’ve said all I needed to say. I’m tired and need rest..” Sienna closed her eyes, turning away to signal the end of their talk.
Alright,” Josiah nodded slowly, caught up in her earlier words, his lips trembling as he swallowed his unfulfilled desires. “Rest well, I’ll come back to see you”

In the afternoon, Sienna had another session in the oxygen chamber and felt much better. She initially planned to wait until the next morning to check out, but she no longer wanted to stay.
Being under observation brought her no comfort, especially if Josiah was going to come back. Also, after she was discharged, she could return to be with Joyce.
Today had already been wasted, and she needed to rejoin the film crew tomorrow. In the evening. Sienna finalized her discharge paperwork, bringing very little with her since she had come in as an emergency case,
As she left the ward, she looked up and saw Cedric. “Cedric Sienna was surprised–he had just visited that morning, yet here he was again. Cedric smiled casually. “Do I seem unwelcome!
“Not at all…” Sienna laughed softly. “I m fine now, and you seem busy, why are you back?”
Cedric pretended to be annoyed, giving her a playful glare. “If I hadn’t come, I wouldn’t have known you were ready to leave. Why not stay for another night!”
promise you, I’m perfectly fine, Sienna explained, her voice still raspy, “Aside from my throat, I feel completely good”
Seeing lier determination, Cedric consulted with the doctor again to confirm there were no issues. “In that case, let me give you a ride

respond, Cedric added, “Don’t refuse; I’m already here. It’s a free ride, why not take it?”
“Okay” Sienna chuckled again and nodded. Just as they were leaving, Josiah arrived at the ward. Standing at the door, he raised his hand to knock but hesitated, remembering Sienna’s rejection and the weight of it all.

A shadow crossed Josiali’s face. Sienna still looked so weak–discharging her was out of the question.
