Chapter 112
Because of Brenda, Thomas already knew that the girl who had danced in the Maze was Sienna.
Josiah had gone through a lot to get her into Lightning Dance because he was trying to rekindle things. If that was the case, then why was she with Cedric now!
“What are you staring at? Josiah shot him a glance, his tone mocking “Even his cousin. Yosef, doesn’t know. So why would at former husband like me know?”
“Whoa,” Yosef said, looking unerly clueless. “I really didn’t know ey, this is a mess. I wonder how your parents will react when they find out?”
Over by them, Cedric released Sienna’s hand and waved them over. “Come on, and stop standing there like statues
The group gathered around, and Cedric smiled a little shyly, glancing at Sienna. “Let me introduce you to my girlfriend,
Sienna
“Hello, everyone,” Siema said, giving a small, shy smile.
Josiah silently sneered and turned away.
Cedric continued, “Sienna, you all know each other, right? No need for a formal introduction
Yep Sienna nodded with a smile.
Cedric noticed the bag Sienna was holding. “What’s that? You’ve been carrying it around the whole time. Aren’t you tired?”
“Nope.” Sienna smiled and shook her head. “It’s your birthday gif
“Huh?” Cedric’s eyes lit up, his excitement obvious.
“You got me a birthday gift?” he exclaimed.
“You really are something.” Sienna chuckled. “How could I come to your birthday party without a gift?”
She hesitated, a little embarrassed. “But it’s nothing expensive, If you don’t like it, you don’t have to tell me. Just quietly get
rid of it
It was just like how Josiah did back in the day.
“Of course not!” Cedric was full of curiosity. “What is it? Can I open it now?”
Even though he had already received plenty of gifts today, none of them had really interested him. But Sienna was different She wasn’t like the others.
“Don’t open it yet,” Sienna said softly. “I made it myself”
“You made it yourself?” That made Cedric even more curious “What is it? You’re not going to let me open it, but you can at least tell me what it is, right?”
“It’s a shirt,” Sienna said, handing him the bag. “You can open it at home and try it on. If you don’t like it, that’s fine. If it doesn’t fit, I can adjust it for you.”
“I love it,” Cedric said happily, holding the bag close to his chest. How could I not like it? You made it with your own hands.”
He looked at her as if he’d discovered a treasure. “Sienna, you really made this? You can actually make this?”

“Yep.” Sienna laughed ar his excitement. It was clear that her gift ad genuinely made him happy. Seeing that, she felt even happier.
“You’re amazing,” he praiseid.
Thanks, Sienna replied shyly. “My grandmother was a seamstrils. I only learned a little bit from her“:
“That’s still impressive,” Cedric said, clearly itching to open it right then and there. But he hesitated. This shirt was something Sienna had made for him, one–of–a–kind,
He wanted to keep it special and open it when he was alone. “Thank you, Sienna. I really love it, I really do.”
“Really now?” Sienna gave him a playful look, laughing and shaking her head. “You haven’t even seen it yet.”
“I like it already.” Gedric grinned, his smile wide, “T’d love anything from you, even if it was made of straw.”
He loved her, so everything connected to her was precious to him. How could he not love something she made with her own hands?
The others around them couldn’t help but feel a little uncomfortable. This birthday party was supposed to be about food. but before they could even eat, they had already been stuffed with a mouthful of their affection.
Josiah turned his back, deep in thought. A shirt?‘ he wondered. He vaguely remembered that Sienna could make clothes.

If Josiah wasn’t mistaken, he had also once received a shirt made by her. ‘Did I, or have I imagined it? he thought.
That night, Josiah returned to the Flynn residence and began searching through his wardrobe, rummaging through the drawers.
He looked everywhere, but he couldn’t find it. Could it be that fam mistaken? Maybe Sienna hadn’t made it for me after all. No, that couldn’t be right, he wondered.
He refused to give up. Finally, in the corner of the closet, he found a small box. When he opened it, there it was, a shirt, neatly folded and wrapped.
It was handmade, but not from the usual high–end tailor that the Flynn family preferred. This one had clearly been made by Sienna herself.
Josiah closed his eyes and tried to recall.
When has she given it to me? Is it for his birthday or graduation he wondered. It felt like so long ago, and back then, he hadn’t really paid attention. He couldn’t remember it at all.
Holding the shirt in his hands, Josiah collapsed onto the floor, defeated. It turned out he had once had Sienna’s purest affection for him.
He had always known it, but knowing something and truly seeing it were two very different things. Now, he could see it, but the person she had made that shirt for was no longer him. It was Cedric
The next morning, Josiah arrived at his office. After the morning meeting, he sifted through a pile of reports and called for
Zach.
“Mr. Flynn, is there something you need?” he asked.
Josiah pulled a few reports from the stack and handed them to him. Take the Gibson family off the list of potential partners. They don’t need to bother with us anymore.”
Zach froze. Has the Gibson family somehow offended Mr. Flynn?‘ he wondered.

“Understood,” Zach replied without asking any more questions, sial was clearly holding something in.

As for Josiah, giving those orders finally released some of the pet–up frustration he’d been carrying since last night. The Gibson family deserved it. After all, their daughter cursed at Sieda.
A simple apology from her wouldn’t cut it. They needed to face me real consequences,
It didn’t take long for Keyla to hear about the Gibson family’s busness troubles. The rest of the family was confused. “What’s going on? We’ve heard it’s Mr. Flynn’s doing. Have we offendedm recently?”
Before, they had always had a good relationship with him. The bson family was puzzled, unable to figure out what went wrong
But Keyla was terrified. Because, recently, the person who had offended Josiah was none other than her.
That day, she had accidentally stepped on Yvette’s foot. But Yvette had said it wasn’t serious. How could Josiah be making life so difficult for their family over something so small?
She couldn’t bring herself to tell her family. If they found out, she’d be torn apart.
Keyla knew she had to fix this herself. If Josiah was upset because of Yvette, then she would have to go to her.
Lately, Yvette had been cutting back on work. Besides the unavoidable commitments, she had been spending most of her time in the hospital with Howard.
So, Keyla went to the hospital to find her.
“Come to see Howard?” Yvette thought she was there for a visit and greeted her with a smile, ‘Sorry, Howard’s sleeping right now. You can take a quick look outside.”
“No,” Keyla said, struggling to find the right words. “I… I came because I need your help. Please, talk to Mr. Flynn for me.”
