Sienna , unfazed by his threats , gave a faint smile .
She spoke slowly , her tone calm but resolute : “ No , you won’t .
”
“ Sienna ! ” Josiah snarled , his anger flaring
* Mr .
Flynn , Sienna addressed him with composure , ignoring the storm brewing in his eyes .
She continued , each word deliberate and clear .
“ How much do you care about the Flynn family’s reputation ! If you walk out of here today , at most , ir’ll just look like a petty lovers ‘ quarrel over a dancer – no big deal .
“ But ,” she added , a hint of mockery curling her lips , “ if you wreck the Maze , I’ll expose my true identity .
I may mean nothing to you , but I’m still legally Mrs.
Flynn , aren’t 12 ”
She chuckled sofily .
“ When that happens , the entire city of Jeiacrity will know – the wife of Josiah is actually the top dancer of the Mazel
Josiah’s expression neisted .
His handsome features darkened , a mix of cold fury and shock flickering in his eyes .
Sienna didn’t flinch .
Instead , she laughed again , her voice dripping with sarcasm .
“ Mr.
Flynn , how could you allow something so disgraceful to happent Wouldn’t you agree ? ”
The room plunged into a suffocating silence .
Josiah had to admit , she’d struck a nerve .
Her words landed squarely on his weakest spot .
He couldn’t gamble with the Flynn family’s reputation – it wasn’t just has pride at stake but the honor of generations
“ Good .
Very good ! ” Josiah narrowed his eyes , his lips curling into a bitter sneer .
“ Sienna , you truly are an ungrateful wretch ”
He took a step closer , his voice cold and biting : “ Who is all this for , huh ? The Flynn family raised you , and now you’re using us as leverage against
me ?”

Why bother interfering in my
Their eyes locked in an intense standoff , neither willing to hack down
Suddenly , there was a soft knock at the door .
Who is it ? Josiah barked , his irritation evident
“ Mr.
Flynn … it’s me .
” came the hesitant response of Mr.
White .
“ I just wanted to check if there’s anything you need .”
Mr.
White’s concem wasn’t unfounded .
After what happened with Adrian , he was worried Sienna might be at a disadvantage .
“ Nothing ! Get out! ” Josiah mapped .
“ Wait , ” Sienna interrupted , her calm voice cutting through his anger ,
Josiah frowned , his sharp eyes narrowing .
“ What are you planning now ? ”
Sienna turned to Mr.
White with a composed smile , her demeanor completely professional “ Mr.
White , please arrange for some drinks .
Mr.
Flynn is tonight’s guest of honor .
I owe him a toast .
”
“ What ? ” Josiah was stunned .
At a time like this , she still remembered such a derail
Josiah froze for a moment , disbelief flashing across his face .
‘ She’s still treating me like a guest ? Even now ! If she’s determined to keep up this facade , fine .
Let her
“ Alright , ” he said , his voice laced with sarcasm
Sienna gave Mr.
White a polite nod .
“ Thank you .”
“ Of course , right away Mr.
White hurried off to prepare , returning shortly with a waiter carrying a tray of drinks .

Sienna stepped forward , picked up the wine bottle , and poured a glass .
Holding it with both hands , she offered it to Josiah
“ Mr.
Flynn ,” she said with a faint but sincere smile , “ thank you for your support during this time .
This drink is my toast to you .
Please , enjoy :”
Josiah’s gaze flickered between her and the glass
He snorted sofily , raising an eyebrow as he took the glass .
Closing his eyes briefly , he downed it in one smooth motion .
“ Good wine .
A 72 Chianti , he remarked coldly , placing the empty glass back on the tray .
“ That’s Sienna’s choice , Ma White chimed in eagerly .
“ She picked it out herself .
She’s got a good eye
Josiah’s expression didn’t change , but he raised an eyebrow slightly .
So , she picked this wine for mer
Without another word , he suddenly stepped closer to Sienna , grabbing the back of her head .

Josiah leaned in , his voice low and cold , meant only for her to hear .
“ You’ve chosen to fall so low .
Fine .
Remember , this is yo
Sienna’s smile didn’t falter , though her hands trembled slightly .
She replied , “ Yes .
Even if this is a dead end .
I won’t regret it .
”
Josiah’s hand loosened as he straightened up .
Without sparing her another glance , he turned and left the mom
Sienna exhaled slowly , her legs unsteady as she backed up against the wall to steady herself .
Mr.
White , who had been watching nervously , finally spoke , “ Sienna , are you alright ?
“ I’m fine , ” she replied , her voice calm despite the turmoil inside h
Mr.
White asked , “ But … what did you two talk about ? Why did Mr.
Flynn leave sud
leave so suddenly !”
Sienna shook her head , her smile faint but resolute .
“ Mr.
White , I’m sorry , but he won’t be coming back
Mr.
White was confused , “ What ?”
Several days passed , and Josiah didn’t return to Maze .
Henry grew increasingly anxious .
“ Sienna , what happened between you n
Dwa ? Can’t y

”
“ Nothing happened , Sienna replied with a small smile .
In truth , there was nothing she could say .
She continued , “ Perhaps he’s just disappointed after seeing my true self-
Henry exclaimed , “ What ? That’s impossible ! ” His disbelief was evident as he added .
“ How could anyone be dissatisfied with your face ? What kind of taste does Mr.
Flynn even have ! ”
But the truth was right in front of him , undeniable .
Henry had no choice but t to accept it .
He let ou
out a heavy sigh “ Oh well there’s nothing we can do about it ”
Sienna , however , remained untroubled .
She asked calmly , “ Mr.
White , do I still need to keep wearing the mask ? ”
Henry replied instantly , “ Of course .
But internally , he sighed , I had hoped Mr.
Flynn would spotlight her .
Who knew it’d end like this ! If he won’t back her , the mask days .
Some things … I just can’t voice
Looking her in the eye , he said , “ For now , don’t take it off .
You’ve already made a name foryourself as the masked dancer .
Why not keep it as your signature style ?
“ Alright , 111 follow your advice , Sienna said without resistance .
Henry thought privately , “ The mask should come off eventually , yes , hut not yet .
It can’t be this easy !
After the dust settled , Sienna became busier than ever .
On the set , the first dance scene was ready for filming .
Along with some dance doubles , she presented the choreography to Charles , the assistant director , who quickly gave his approval .
The shoot was scheduled for the next two days .
During this time , Sienna found herself running between the set and the studio at Maze , either rehearsing or traveling to her next practice session .

Her tone was tight , as it always was when they spoke .
Sienna couldn’t help but feel nervous every time he called , afraid of hearing something bad about Joyce
“ Sienna , ” Mr.
Thompson greeted her warmly , his voice carrying an unusual cheerfulness .
T’ve got good news for you ”
Sienna straightened her back immediately .
“ Really ? What good news ? Could it be …

Don’t get carried away , she thought
