Caught In His Embrace: A Second Chance Romance
Chapter 55

Chapter 55 

Sienna wondered if too much had happened that night , too thrilling , making her mind a jumble .

She was surprised that inside the bag was a bunch of lollipops . 

“ Why are you daydreaming ? ” Josiah gave her a quick look and urged , “ Take one .

” 

Sienna nodded .

“ Oh , okay ,” She reached in , picked one up , obediently unwrapped it and handed it to him .

“ Here .

” 

Josiah slightly lifted the comers of his lips , showing a hint of a smile .

“ Why are you giving it to me ? 

Sienna was confused .

She thought Josiah wanted her to unwrap a lollipop for him .

But now he didn’t want it .

She felt like being tricked 

Tsk Seeing her dumbfounded look , Josiah clicked his tongue , freed one hand , and took the lollipop from her .

“ Open your mouth .

” 

“ Huh ? ” Caught by surprise , Sienna did open her mouth , though not to comply with him . 

Even though she wasn’t complying , Josiah still achieved his goal .

He held the lollipop and placed it into her mouth . 

Sienna was full of questions .

She didn’t know what was going on . 

“ Ha ha , ” Josiah looked at her and smiled .

For once , they weren’t arguing , no bickering .

When he smiled genuinely , he had a boyish innocence .

He lifted his chin towards her .

“ Well ? How’s it Tastes good ? ” 

Sienna was silent for a couple of seconds , swallowed , then nodded blankly , “ Yeah .

” 

“ Is it that good ? So much that you can’t even talk ? ” Josiah glanced at her through the rearview mirror , nudging her .

“ Just gonna eat it all by yourself ? There’s plenty more .

Aren’t you gonna offer me one ? ” 

Sienna quickly grabbed another , peeled off the wrapper , and held it to his mouth .

“ Here you go .

” 

“ Mm , ” Josiah leaned down and took a bine .

The sugary taste spread on his tongue .

He didn’t know what was so good about lollipops and thought .

only young girls would like the sweet taste . 

Considering Sienna’s age , she could almost count as a young girl .

It wasn’t surprising that she’d like it . 

“ Last time , I threw away your lollipop , Josiah said with a pout .

“ And you got all mad at me .

Look I got you a whole bag of them in all kinds of flavors .

Happy now ! ” 

Sienna was so shocked she couldn’t speak . 

Seeing her in a daze , Josiah frowned .

“ What ? Don’t like it ? 

“ Well , ” Sienna quickly shook her head , “ No , not really , I like in a lot , thanks . 

Even though she had no idea why he suddenly acted like this , she wouldn’t dare to say she didn’t like it.

She couldn’t upset Josiah lest he send her back to the police station . 

“ Glad to hear you like it , ” Josiah said with satisfaction .

The lollipop slowly melted in his mouth , yet Josiah didn’t notice .

His lips stayed curved – up , showing a hint of a happy smile . 

Back at the apartment , Sienna’s phone started ringing .

Actually , it had been ringing in the car .

She didn’t want to answer , so she put it on silent .

But it seemed like her not answering just made him keep calling .

It was quite annoying . 

Sienna swiped to answer , “ Hello . 

“ Siennal ” The man on the other end sounded worried .

“ Why couldn’t I reach you ? Are you okay ? Did the police give you any troublet ” 

Sienna let out a silent , cold laugh .

His concern always came a bit too late .

Tm fine , hanging up- 

“ Wait ” “ The man hurried to stop her .

“ Uh , about the money , left in such a rush .

I forgot to give you the card , I’ve got the money ready .

Let’s set up another time so I can give you the card .

” 

“ No need ” 

“ Sienna ? ” The man was surprised .

“ Are you upset ! ” 

Sienna didn’t respond to his question .

She just said what she wanted to “ Til figure out the money on my own .

As for you- Let’s not contact each

other anymore .

After this call , Ill block you Please , do the same for me ” 

“ Sien “ Without waiting for him to finish , Sienna hung up and immediately blocked him .

She looked up and blinked .

She couldn’t believe she hadn’t learned her lesson and even asked him for help again . 

But after tonight , it wouldn’t happen ever again .

He would never know what she endured alone every time he turned and left . 

Sienna closed her eyes , feeling a slight wetness under her lids .

She mumbled softly , “ Don’t cry , Sienna ,” She would find a way .

For Joyce , she’d definitely find a way . 

The nightlife in Maze was as vibrant as ever , full of colorful lights and lively chatter .

Sienna was still the top hostess , but ever since the incident a few days ago , everyone knew she was Josiah’s girl 

So , everyone just admired her from a distance , and no one dared to make a move .

But as time went on , some couldn’t help but notice something was off .

It seemed Josiah wasn’t as interested in Sienna as he had been at first . 

Rumors were going around that his initial excitement for her had faded .

He hadn’t been around for a long time .

Not only that , the usual gifts like flowers and late – night snacks were also absent . 

Those who frequented such places understood what was happening .

It seemed like Josiah had already forgotten about Sienna .

Given the situation .

naturally , some couldn’t resist the temptation to try their luck . 

After a period of quiet , many started turning up again to support Sienna .

Tonight , as soon as Sienna arrived , the dressing room was already filled with flowers 

“ Sienna , you’re here ! ” Henry greeted cheerfully , pointing at the room filled with flowers .

“ See , Sienna’s charm is truly unique , isn’t it ? ” It was just as impressive as when Josial , first visited 

Sienna asked , “ Are those from Mr.

Jones ? ” 

“ Yes , ” Henry nodded with a smile .

“ Mr.

Jones has put quite a bit of effort into this for you .

” 

Sienna furrowed her brow and asked , “ What does Mr.

Jones intend by this ? ” 

“ What ? ” Henry looked a bit surprised , “ Are you asking— ?” 

Sienna nodded .

“ I mean , is Mr.

Jones expecting me to entertain him , or does he have another purpose ! ” 

“ Well , The bluntness of her question caught Henry off guard .

While dancers at Maze sometimes ended up with clients , it wasn’t common for someone to ask as directly as Sienna did . 

Henry had never come across someone like her before .

Usually , he was the one to convey the client’s wishes .

He honestly admitted .

“ Mr.

Jones hasn’t specified anything .” 

“ Oh.

Sienna nodded , showing she understood , and then asked , “ Can I meet Mr.

Jones after today ! ” She pointed at the flowers filling the room .

“ With all the effort Mr.

Jones has put in , I’d like to thank him personally .

” 

“ Sure , ” Henry had no issues with that .

He preferred proactive employees like Sienna “ Shall I arrange it then ? ” 

“ Yes , thank you , Mr.

White 

“ No problem , ” Henry turned around to get back to work , but couldn’t help but sigh inwardly .

Such a beauty , and it’s going to be snatched up by that old geezer , Ryan ? ” 

But after thinking it over , 

if Sienna really ended up with Mr.

Jones , it would only benefit Maze . 

Following Henry’s arrangement , after the performance , Sienna took off her makeup, changed clothes , and went to Mr.

Jones’s suite . 

“ Mr.

Jones ” Henry led Sienna in , his face full of smiles .

“ Sienna is here ?
