“ Siennal ” Backstage , Henry came over again with a beaming smile .
Originally , he felt disappointed because Josiah hadn’t shown up tonight .
To his surprise , even though Josiah wasn’t here , he had sent the late – night snacks over .
“ Mr.
White , what’s up ? ” Sienna smiled as she stood up
“ Wait a moment .
” Henry waved at her with a smile , asking the staff to open all the lounge doors and called to the people by the entrance , “ Come on ; bring it in ”
As soon as he finished speaking , around eight people walked in , each holding something .
Henry cheerfully directed , “ Put it on the large table in the middle .”
The large table in the middle of the dressing room was usually used by everyone for eating meals , drinking water , and sometimes listening to Henry’s talks .
w
as obvious that the eight individuals were there to deliver food because they were all dressed in delivery uniforms .
“ Sienna , what’s Mr.
White up to ?? the colleagues gathered around Sienna , whispering
Sienna shook her head and honestly said , “ I have no idea .”
When the food was unpacked , they saw the logo of Tasty Blites .
“ It’s the dessert from Tasty Bites !
“ Indeed ! Is Mr.
White so generous ? ”
Once everything was on the table and the delivery people had lef , Henry clapped his hands and addressed the crowd , Ladies , there are desserts from Tasty Bites for everyone ! ”
“Wow ! Everyone clapped together
Thank
you
Mr.
White .”
“ Mr.
White , you’re so generous ”
“ No , it’s not me .
” Henry waved his hand with a smile , giving Sienna a meaningful look .
“ I wasn’t my money .
If you’re going to thank someone , thank Sienna .
Mr.
Flynn is treating everyone on her behalf .
“ Wow , Sienna , you re amazing ! ”
“Yeah , we’re lucky to know Sienna .
”
“ Well then ,

”

Faced with her colleagues’teasing , Sienna forced a smile , her expression awkward
“ Sienna .
” Henry approached her ,
r , still smiling .
“ Mr.

Sienna pressed her lips together .
“ Got it
There was still something going on outside , so Henry didn’t say much .
“ You should go eat too .
Mr.
Flynn bought it specially for you .
Don’t let them
have all the fun ”
Okay .” As soon
soon as Henry left , the smile on Sienna’s face almost instantly disappeared .

Chapter 43
though this was Maze’s staff passageway , it wasn’t locked .
As she just stepped out , she saw someone familiar .
Cedric had snuck in ; even th
He didn’t know why he came in either , it was just that his cousin used Josialy’s name to send Silver Fox late – night snacks … He wondered how Silver Fox felt and whether she was happy that Josiah valued her so much .
“ You .
” Sienna blinked .
“ You can’t find the restroom again ? ”
“ No , not at all Cedric hadn’t expected to meet her as soon as he walked in .
He glanced into the lounge , where everyone was enjoying the desserts from Tasty Bites Awkwardly , he asked , “ You’re … not having any ? ”
“ What ? ” Sienna paused briefly before she realized what he meant .
“ Oh , you’re talking about the snacks .
There’s nothing I particularly like , so I’m not cating i
“ Really “” Cedric’s eyes lit up , and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth .
She didn’t like it .
This could be interpreted in two ways .
The desserts really weren’t to her taste , or she wasn’t very fond of the person who sent them .
Either way , it was undoubtedly good news for him .
Cedric wallowed and mustered his courage .
So , what do you
“ Huh ?” Sienna paused for a moment and asked him , “ Why do you ask that ? ”
“ T – L… ” Cedric blished .
“ I’m just checking .
You don’t have to answer ,
“ Well , I’m off Sienna pointed ahead .
“ Okay ” Cedric nodded , a bit disappointed as he watched her walk away absently .
Suddenly ,
Sienna turned around .
Cedric straightened up immediately , expectant .
Sienna thought for a moment and said , “ Pumpkin soup .
”
With those words , she walked off without looking back .
“ Pumpkin soup “ Cedric murmured the words , suddenly chuckling sofily
She was answering his earlier question .
“ Yes ” He felt like he had found a treasure .
Sienna forgot all about it , came back from the restroom , touched up her makeup , and waited for her performance .
After the show , she took off her makeup , changed HER clothes , and left .
“ Hey ! ” someone called out to her just as she left the building .
Sienna wasn’t sure she was the one being called , so she turned around and saw Cedric walking toward her with a bag in his hand .
She stopped and waited for him .
“ What’s up ? ”
Cedric jogged over , stopped in front of her , nodded , and handed her the bag .
“ This is for you ”
“ What is it ?” Sienna frowned , not taking it
But Cedric was out of time ; his cousin and friends were still waiting for him .
If they saw him meeting her , they wouldn’t let him off easily .
“ Take it in his hurry , Cedric thrust the bag into her hands .
Sienna frowned .
As soon as his hand touched hers , she immediately frowned in reaction .
Fortunately , it was just a moment before he quickly widerew
“ Tom Iraving ” Cedric smiled and turned to
Logo .
“ Hey , what is it ?” she asked .
Cedric glanced back , waved at her , and answered , “ Pumpkin soup ”

Then , he ran off in long strides .
Sienna looked down , opened the bag , and sure enough … it was pumpkin soup .
She felt it — it was cold , with an ice pack inside the bag-
She wondered , ‘ Did he buy it because she mentioned it ? Is he interested in me ?
Sienna shook her head with a sigh .
“ Is he just a spoiled rich kid looking for a fling or a naive young man experiencing his first crush ”
Either way , she wasn’t interested .
She had no plans for a new romantic relationship , at least not now .
Still , she appreciated the pumpkin soups
Sienna picked up the bag , unlocked a shared bike , and went back to her place on 12th Avenue .
Several floors of the apartment building’s stairway sensor lights were not working , including her floor .
Sienna look out her phone and turned on the flashlight to light her way .
As the beam shot forward , suddenly …
“ Ahr Sienna screamed , startled to see someone standing at the doorway She almost tossed her phone .
“ You’re back , ” the silhouette spoke from the darkness .
Sienna’s mind buzzed .
This voice sounded so familiar She’d heard it somewhere before .
She wondered if this was someone she knew .
Uncertain .
n , she pointed the light there again .
“ Tsk ! ” The beam of light hit Josiah’s eyes , and he quickly shielded them with his hand , displeasedly saying , “ Sienna , are you interrogating a
Sienna thought , Do I hear it wrong ! That’s Josiah ?! ”
Instead of dodging the flashlight , she just stood there unfazed .
Upon a closer look , it really was him
Sienna’s first reaction was to turn and leave .
“ Sienna ” Josiah stepped forward and grabbed her long ponytail .
“ Are you running away ? Where do you think you’re going !”
