“ What ? The shock was too much .

Sienna’s eyes widened , and a piece of bread got stuck in her throat .

She couldn’t swallow it or cough it up . 

“ Cough , cough ! ” 

“ Sienna ! ” Josiah was startled , immediately getting up and moving to her side .

“ What’s wrong ? Let me see ! ” 

He held her face in his hands , trying to pry open her mouth . 

Sienna refused to open her mouth , shaking her head vigorously .

“ My mouth is full of breadcrumbs ; how could I show him that ? Most importantly , why should I show him ? ‘ she thought 

“ Don’t be stubborn ! ” Josiah frowned with worry , wishing he could just force her mouth open 

“ Mr.

Flynn ” Linda couldn’t stand it anymore and brought over a glass of water .

“ Ms.

Shaw seems to be choking : let her drink some water .

” 

Sienna couldn’t say anything so she just nodded repeatedly , 

“ Give it to me ! ” Josiah snatched the glass as Sienna reached out for it , but he wouldn’t let her take it . 

He brought the glass to her lips .

“ Drink it ! ” 

With no other option , Sienna didn’t want to choke , so she drank as he held the glass .

After swallowing several gulps of water , she finally felt at ease . 

Sienna looked up and pushed the glass away . 

“ Is it enough !” Josiah still seemed worried .

“ Are you okay now ! Feeling better ? ” 

“Yes ” Sienna nodded .

“ I’m okay ” 

“ That’s good .” Josiah sighed in relief , putting the glass down and gently tapping her nose .

You can chake on bread ? Could you be any more Careless ? ” 

Sienna frowned and tilted her head .

She really didn’t like him touching her , not at all . 

As his hand lay empty , Josiah’s face froze momentarily , but he wasn’t angry .

In fact , he was more upset after overhearing her say she didn’t like him on the balcony . 

Josiah stood up and sat back in his chair , lowered his head , and continued slicing the bread 

Watching this made Sienna nervous , and she quickly said , “ I don’t want it anymore … just don’t bother 

Josiah paused for a couple of seconds , then lifted his hand and gazed deeply at her . 

“ Sienna , ” he said in a casual tone , but there was an undeniable foror in his words 

“ N

o one can refuse me .

Do you understand ? ” 

In other words , she had no choice but to accept , whether she liked it or not . 

A chill crept over Sienna’s hear , “ Yes , that’s exactly how he is . 

Feeling a bit overwhelmed , she asked , “ So what exactly do you want me to do ?” 

Finally getting to the point , Josiah sat up straighter , leaning slightly toward her , “I’ve made it clear .

Come back to me and withdraw the divorce application .” 

“ What Sienna shook her head , gazing into his eyes and trying to read his thoughts .

“ I mean , why are you doing this ? ” 

What ? Josiah was stunned by the question , “ Isn’t it obvious ! I want to win your heart back ‘ 

Sienna let out a barely audible laugh .

“ You want me back by your side , but why ? Surely you haven’t just fallen for me , have you ? ” 

Like ? Josiah raised an eyebrow at a question he’d never thought to consider . 

Sienna read his expression perfectly .

Just as I suspected , he had other motives .

She shook her head with a smile .

“ Mr.

Flynn , surely it’s not for such a ridiculous reason .

So what really …

Walt a 

“ Isn’t it ? ” Sienna immediately shot back .

“ Do you even know who 

I am ? I’m the notorious socialite of Jeiacrity , the one you sent abroad , scheming 

“ Shut up ! That’s enough ! ” Josiah interrupted her sharply , anger flashing in his eyes .

Your mouth isn’t made for talking ! ” 

He picked up the sliced baguette from the plate , dipped it in some sauce , and said , “ Open your mouth .” 

“ What ! Sienna was stunned , ‘ Is Josiah alright ? What could be such an extraordinary reason that he could even tolerate me saying something like 

this 

“ I’m not eating ” Sienna frowned , turning her head slightly .

“ Unless you agree to let me go back to dancing at Maze .

” 

Josiah’s hand paused , ‘So all this is about that ? He put down the bread and said flatly .

“ Forget about dancing at Maze .

That’s not happening ” 

“ Why “ ” Sienna was surprised , feeling a chill up her spine .

That’s my job ! ” 

“ What kind of lousy job ? Josiah didn’t care at all .

He waved his hand dismissively .

“ You don’t need to do it anymore .

Can’t I afford to take care of your ” 

Take care of me ? Has he really not given up ? Sienna felt frustrated and , with some difficulty , spoke up .

“ I know how capable you are , but I won’t agree to in . 

“ Is that so ? ” Josiah met her gaze . 

Their eyes met in a fierce standoff .

Neither was willing to give an inch . 

“ Alright ,” Jouah nodded .

1 understand what you mean . 

After hearing what she said on the terrace , he naturally understood that getting her to be with him again wouldn’t be easy .

After all .

Who can I blame but myself for not treating her well enough or paying enough attention to her before ? he thought .. 

He wasn’t deluded enough to think one sentence could change her mind .

He was ready to pursue her to woo her . 

Changing the subject , he said , “ Let’s eat .

You’ve only had a couple of bites , you can’t be full yer . 

As he spoke , he picked up a piece of bread and offered it to her .

This time .

Sienna ignored it , lowering her head to gulp down her soup . 

“ Hmm “ ” Josiah was surprised , raising his eyebrows before bursting into hearty laughter .

After breakfast , they left together .

Zaid drove , dropping Sienna off at 12th Avenue first . 

Josiah had no desire to send her back .

However , he had just halted her work at Maze .

Forcing her to move on top of that would likely push her to the brink and make her turn against him . 

For now , he’d let her be .

Thinking about how she wouldn’t be dancing at Maze anymore , no longer drawing the stares of those men … Josiah suddenly felt much more at ease .

At the entrance of the alley , Josiah got out of the car with Sienna and walked her back to her apartment .

With limited time , he only escorted her to the door and didn’t go inside . 

One was inside the door and the other outside .

He looked down at her .

“I’m leaving now ! 

Sienna didn’t want to respond . 

Josiah smirked , knowing she was upset but didn’t care .

“ Stopping you from dancing – isn’t it for your own good ? A place like that , you can’t dance 

there forever .” 

Sienna quickly looked up , glaring at him . 

“ Alright , I won’t say anything more ,” Josiah raised his hands in surrender .

“ Tim leaving now .” 

He looked at her , stepped back a couple of times , grinned , and said , “ Later Turning around , he went down the stairs . 

Listening to his footsteps , Sienna frowned , wondering why he was so determined to pursue her 

That night , Josiah and some friends arranged to meet at Mare , with Cedric also joining them .

While speaking with Yosef , Josiah specifically

mentioned bringing Cedric along as well . 

Since entering , Cedric’s eyes were fixed on the stage .

As time passed and Sienna didn’t show , he grew anxious and stood up , saying .

“ I’m heading to the restroom .

” 

Not long after Cedric left , Josiah stood up .

“ I’m going to the restroom too .
