Chapter 363
Joyce hadn’t seen Josiah all day and became clingy. Sienna said, “Joyce, it’s time for bed. Be a good girl, or Mommy will get upset and won’t let Josiah visit again.”
As soon as Joyce heard this, she quickly closed her eyes. “TI sleep now?”
“You’re such a good girl. Josiah chuckled softly as he tucked her in and gently helped her to sleep. By the time he stood up to leave, an hour had gone by.
Sienna waited at the door since she was going to sleep with Joyce that night. When the door opened, she barely looked at Josiah, passing him and going straight into the room.
“Sienna. Josiah grabbed her arm, wanting to
to explain. “Yvette’s emotional state is very unstable, and after a few days….
“Shh!” Sienna peeked inside, worried about waking Joyce, and quietly shut the door. Even then, she whispered, “I don’t care about your issues with Yvette. I only care about Joyce.”
“Sienna?” Josiah frowned, confused. “I know you don’t like Yvette, but… considering her situation, can’t you feel a little sympathy for her?” “Not at all w
Without hesitation, Sienna said, a faint smile appearing on her face. “If y
you ask me, she did this to herself”
Josiah’s face tightened for a moment.
“Why do you think that?” lo
“Are you feeling sorry for her?” A bigger smile grew on her lips. “What she’s going through now is just justice!”
With a flick of her wrist, she pulled away from him and turned to open the door. Josiah was briefly stunned, unable to stop her. He wondered. Why did Siennu talk like that? Why did Sienna hate Yvette so much?”
The tense history between Yvette and Sienna was well–known in the Jelacrity elite circles.
However, Yvette had every right to harbor a grudge against Sienna. After all, it was Sienna who had
who had caused Yvette to lose her child that year.
Josiah closed his eyes, thoughts swirling just beneath the surface but escaping his grasp.
In the days that followed, Sienna didn’t have any performances scheduled since her role in the play was small. So, she enjoyed a longer rest the next day. When she woke up, she found Joyce snuggled next to her.
Sienna gently stroked Joyce’s rosy, sleeping face. “Joyce, it’s time to. She wanted to wake Joyce up but halted. Joyce’s face was so warm.
“Joyce?” Panic gripped Sienna, but she hesitated to raise her voice for fear of startling joyce. “Joyce, wake up”
Joyce slowly blinked her eyes open, her eyes sparkling. In a soft, sleepy tone, she murmured, “Good morning, mommy.
“Good morning, Joyce Sienna quickly grabbed a thermometer to check Joyce’s temperature.
Joyce suddenly cried. “I don’t feel well”
Her heart raced: Joyce had a fever.
“I know, sweetheart Sienna’s heart tightened as she picked joyce up into her arms. “Let’s get you dressed; we’re going to the hospital. You’ll feel better after seeing the doctor

Tara entered.
“Tara” Her arrival was timely, Sienna hurriedly instructed, “Joyor is sick, and we need to leave for the hospital right away!”
Tara exclaimed, quickly griting ready. Alter putting on her coat, Sienna carried Joyce out of the apartment, with Tura following closely behind.
Joyor leaned against Sienna, her rangy little voice breaking, “Mounty, where’s Josialt in lov

In a hurry. Sienna rushed Joyce to the hospital while Joyce’s cries echoed. “Mommy, Josiah…”
Once at the hospital, Sienna handed Joyce to Tara. “Stay with Joyer while she gets her blood drawn. I need to make a call”
“Okay” Tara understood that Sienna was going to call Josiah
Indeed. Sienna quickly dialed Josiah’s number. “Joyce has a fever. We’re at the hospital, hurry over!”
Joyce has a fever? Hearing this, Josiah’s voice tensed. Tl be there right away!” Eager to act, he dashed out of the patient room. Just a few feet away in her bed. Yvette watched everything with a clear mind.
He left just like that! All because of a phone call! Who called him? It must have been Siennal Are they still in contact? Was Sienna still holding onto him?
Wette’s gaze turned cold. ‘No, they must not be together! Josiah is all that remained for me! Silently, Yvette raised her hand and pulled out the needle just pur in by the nurse
The nurse froze. “Ms. Young!”
Without looking at her. Yvette replied coldly. “Go fetch Josiah If he doesn’t come back, I won’t receive treatment.”
The nurse was taken aback. Nodding cautiously, she stammered, “Okay… I’ll be right back
Meanwhile, just outside the surgical area, Josiah received a call from the ward nurse, who explained, “Mr. Flynn, you should return. Ms. Young’s mental state seems quite unstable. We’re worried she might act out,”

Josiah stood frozen, his head pounding. As if sensing something, his phone rang again; it was Sienna, anxiously urging him, “Are you on Hurry! Joyce is crying!”
In the background, he could hear Joyce’s distressed sobs. “I’m not feeling well, Mommy!”

Sienna’s urgent voice followed. “Did you
Josiah’s heart sank. He glanced toward the surgical area and rushed toward the garage. I heard you! Sienna, I’m on my way! Tell Joyce I’ll be there
He reached the garage, got his car, and sped toward the hospital, flooring the accelerator, desperately wanting to be by his daughter’s side right
way.
“Please don’t, don’t give me a shot!” By the time he arrived, Joyce was struggling in Sienna’s arms, crying “I don’t want a shot!”
Josiah shouted, “Joyce
“Josiah Joyce lifted her tear–filled eyes to him, reaching her arms toward him.
“It’s okay?” Josiah rushed forward and held Joyce in his arms. “I’m here; no need to cry. Be good, Joyce; after the shot, you’ll feel better.”
