“ I didn’t lie , ” Sienna insisted , her voice trembling slightly .

Sienna frowned but said softly .

Sienna had no choice but to comply .
She climbed into the passenger seat , feeling a little uneasy .

“ What are you thinking about ? ” Josiah asked suddenly , his sharp eyes glancing at her while his hands stayed steady on the wheel .

“ Why ask so many pointless questions ? ”
“ Okay .

She had no choice but to neist her body , stretching awkwardly to reach the bag on the backseat .
Her fingers fumbled with it for a moment before she managed to pull it into her lap .
She opened the bag and froze .
