Caught In His Embrace: A Second Chance Romance
Chapter 44

Chapter 44 

“ Ouch ! ” Sienna cried out in pain and had to stop reluctantly . 

She took a deep breath , trying to remain calm .

“ Why did you come here ? Is there something you need ? ” 

Josiah let out a quiet sneer and didn’t bother to answer her question .

He pointed to the door in front of him .

“ Open in 

Sienna blinked , wondering , “ What ? Is he planning to go in ? 

But she wasn’t having it .

“ Just say whatever it is right here … ” 

“ Open it ! ” Josiah’s patience snapped , and he suddenly growled , glaring at her .

“ Do I really have to say it a third time ? ” 

Seeing the anger on his face , Sienna paused .

It was not wise to argue now .

She pulled out the key and unlocked the door . 

Josiah entered before her .

“ It’s so dark .

No lights in the hallway or the house ? ” 

Before his anger could rage any further , Sienna rushed in and turned on the main light .

Finally , they could see clearly 

This place was too small .

Sienna didn’t mind when she was alone , but with Josiah’s tall and imposing presence , it felt cramped . 

Josiah didn’t say a word as he looked around .

It was a one – bedroom , one – bathroom apartment with an open kitchen . 

They called it a one – bedroom , but actually , the living room and bedroom were connected , and the kitchen was just a nook by the entrance .

Only the bathroom was separate . 

He thought , “ Was this supposed to be an apartment ? It wasn’t even as big as a single bedroom at the Silver Beach . 

The only advantage was that it was clean and tidy However , no matter how spotless and organized it was , to Josiah , this shabby place was still an cyesore . 

He spun around qui 

quickly , his eyes fixing on Sienna , his face dark and stormy .

“ Tell me , What do you mean by this ? ” 

Sienna was a bit taken aback , not quite understanding his question .

“ Haven’t you seen it ? I live here .. 

“ Nonsense ! ” Josiah’s face was chillingly indifferent .

I’m asking you .

Why are you living here ? ” 

Sienna held back the urge to roll her eyes and replied sarcastically , “ Obviously , because this is the only place I can afford .

” 

“ That’s absurd ! ” Josiah retorted instantly .

“ Didn’t I provide you with a place ? Didn’t I give you alimony ? Are you saying you have nowhere to live or 

“ That’s your money and you 

your house .

It has nothing to do with me ,” Sienna countered without hesitation . 

Josiah was taken aback .

“ What did you say ? ” 

“ Humph .

” Sienna curved her lips into a faint smile .

“ When we signed the divorce agreement , I told you that I wouldn’t take anything from the Flynn family .

I’m serious .

” 

Even when she was on her deathbed , she didn’t take a penny from him .

Now that she was alive , she would no longer need it 

Josiah suddenly recalled .

Gilbert had mentioned that she still hadn’t gone to the law firm to handle the transfer procedures specified in the 

agreemeni 

Josiah asked , “ What … are you thinking ? ” “ Is she serious ? Is this just another trick ? ‘ he thought . 

“ It’s simple .

Because of the height difference , Sienna had to tilt her head to look at him , a slight smile on her lips . 

“ On your own ? ” Josiah couldn’t help but let out a low , mocking laugh , waving his hand .

Just like that ! Living in this slum ? ” 

Sienna gave a slight nug on her lips .

“ To you , yes , this is a slum ” 

But not to her .

In Flirty , al 

she lived in conditions worse than this and even used to sleep on the streets ….

“ Enough ” Josiah was tired of the argument , waving his hand .

“ Pack your things and come with me now ? 

Sienna was shocked and thought it was ridiculous .

“ Come with you ! This is my home .

I’m not leaving ”

Chapter 44 

“ Siennal ” Josiah stared deeply at her .

Ever since she returned , the thing she did most was to reject him . 

“ Do you think I like dealing with you ! I’m doing it for Grandma , ” said Josiah . 

Hearing that , Sienna remembered , Miranda said that Josiah was supposed to treat her like a sister .

Only if she was doing well could he divorce her successfully . 

Knowing she understood , Josiah urged again , “ Come on .

Hurry up and pack .

” 

“ No need ” Yet , Sienna still refused . 

“ Sienna “ ” Josiah was almost out of patience .

“ What do you really want ? ” 

Sienna let out a long , helpless sigh 

She looked at him calmly and spoke softly .

“ Didn’s Grandma say you should see me living well ? Then just watch me hive happily and let me handle it myself , okay ?” 

“ Yourself Josiah sneered at her .

“ Don’t be ridiculous .

Ever since you were licen … ” 

“ That was in the past Knowing what he was about to say , Sienna coldly interrupted him .

I’m thankful to the Flynn family and Grandma for their kindness , but please rest assured , I can support myself now .

Im not the same burden I used to be ” 

“ Burden ? ” Josiah was stung by the word , frowning with displeasure , Did I ever say that about you ? ” 

‘ Didn’t he ? From his high position , stepping on an ant is nothing to him , thought Sienna . 

Sienna felt a chill in her heart but didn’t want to argue , only stood her ground .

“I’m perfecily comfortable living here , and I won’t move 

“ Sienna ” But Josiah wasn’t going to just let her go like that . 

“ Do you even know where you are ? 12th Avenue isn’t a place for a girl to live alone .

The people here are just too complicated .

” 

Complicated ? Well , that isn’t wrong .

Considering I’m a dancer at Mare , I am also seen as complicated too , Sienna 

“ It’s no big deal , Sienna shrugged casually .

I just close my door and live my life without interacting with others .

” 

Josiah was at a loss , surprised by her stubbornness 

“ It’s getting late .

” Sienna walked to the door and opened it .

“ I need to rest , and you should leave now 

That was clearly a request to leave .

Josiah could do nothing about it , as he couldn’t exactly knock her out and take her away 

“Mr.

Flynn ? ” Sienna reminded him again , pointing to the door .

“ You should go ,” 

Josiah took a deep breath and stepped forward .

As he crossed the doorway , he still wasn’t ready to give up .

“ Sienna , you … 

“I’m fine .

” Sienna gave him a faint smile , truly relaxed .

“ Don’t worry about Grandma .

Since she’s already eased up , I’ll continue to talk her out of it .

I believe you won’t have to wait much longer ” 

Josiah was taken aback , thinking , “ Is that really what concerned me ? He wanted to argue, but that was exactly what mattered to him . 

“ Go on .

It’s really late , Sienna smiled at him .

“Be careful on your way home ! 

Then , she slowly closed the door . 

Josiah stood outside the door , and suddenly , everything went completely black .

What a dreadful place . 

He thought .

Whatever .

If Sienna loves staying here , let her stay .

It’s not like Tan the one torturing her .

She seeks trouble herself , so what can I do ! 

Resolute , he turned to go downstairs .

The stairwell was completely dark , and suddenly , Josiah paused .

It seemed that something was clinging to his
