Chapter 68
Miranda took Sienna’s hand and stood up. Since we’re talking about it, let’s go try on the dress”
“Grandma-
“Be pro
good. Don’t make me upset
With no way to refuse, Sienna had to follow Miranda upstairs. Since they had kept it a surprise from her, the dress was in Miranda’s room.
Miranda led her into the walk–in closet and pointed to the gown hanging on the rack, already ironed and covered with a garment bag. “Look, isn’t it beautiful?
“Yes, Sienna nodded. “It’s beautiful.”
Miranda looked Sienna over. “You’re tall and have a great figure. Only you can pull this off. Go on, try it on.”
“Okay, Grandma”
Miranda turned around and left the closes, waiting outside.
“Mrs. Flynn” Linda called. “There’s an order I think is suspicious and needs your verification.”
“Alright.” Miranda replied as she left with Linda since Yvette was out and only she could handle it.
They had just stepped out when Josiah came upstairs. He had returned home early today to see if there was anything that needed his attention. Not finding Miranda and Sienna downstairs, he went upstairs
“Grandma, are you here?” He knocked twice on Miranda’s door. It wasn’t locked, so he pushed it open and went in.
In the closet, Sienna had put on the gown. It fit her quite well, but she encountered a small problem. The zipper was at the back, and she couldn’t reach it
Feeling anxious, she heard footsteps behind her. Thinking it was Miranda, she didn’t turn around. “Grandma, can you help me zip this? Ive been trying for a while but can’t reach in
The footsteps behind her paused subtly and then slowly got closer.
Sienna felt someone standing right behind her, and when she turned her head. “Could you please- Sienna was startled and instinctively wanted to run.
Her words stopped abruptly. It was Josish.
“Don’t mover” Josiah stopped her by grabbing her wrist with one hand and placing the other on her waist, leaning down with his breath almost touching her ear.
“Dressed like that, where are you going to run to? Believe me, if you move, that dress is going to slide right off.”
Hearing this, Sienna froze. She believed him, so she didn’t dare move.
Josiah barely smirked and reached around her waist. “Let’s zip it up, okay!”
“Okay,” Sienna lowered her p gaze and nodded. Thanks for the help, She didn’t expect things to end up like this. She wondered where Miranda was. The only penon she could rely on was Josiah.
“Alright,” Josials searched around her waist. “Where’s the zipper?” He kept feeling around but couldn’t find it.
“You” Sienna’s face turned crimson with embarrassment. “It’s right there! How can you not find it
“Right where?” Josiah wasn’t pretending. Tve never worn women’s clothes before, you know.”
“Just right=“Sienna couldn’t explain it clearly, so she reached behind her back and took Josiah’s hand. The moment their skin touched, a tingling sensation spread through them, like a gentle electric current moving through
Josiah was taken aback. He found the sensation pleasant and somewhat comforting.
Sienna was completely
ly unaware of this. She guided his hand to the zipper pull. “Here, can you see it?”
“Yeah,” Josiah’s Adam’s apple moved up and downs intensely, his throat felt extremely dry and liched, almost as if stuck together. “Ahem, yeah, I see

“Then hurry, Sienna urged, “Help me zip it up
“Alright, Josial placed one hand on her waist and pulled the zipper up with the other, his eyes unintentionally following the closing seam. His gaze. fell upon her flawless skin. Its such a beautiful back.
Josiah suddenly closed his eyes, flashes of a blood–spattered scene flickered through his mind, a sharp pain followed, and the pounding sound was deafening. His back seemed to throb faintly.
“Are you finished?” Sienna was growing impatient, wondering why it was taking so long.
“Yeah, it’s done,” Josiah snapped back to reality and quickly zipped up the last little bit, just revealing her elegant shoulder blades. He felt like his throat was so dry and inchy it might catch fire. He couldn’t keep looking
As Sienna turned around, Josial averted his gaze, returning to is usual calm demeanor.
Sienna felt a bit uneasy, brushing her hair behind her car. They stood there, and it was extremely awkward. Trying to make conversation, Sienna chuckled and asked, “Lih, what do you think?”
Josiah was surprised and squinted slightly.
Sienna almost instantly regretted it. She must be out of her mind. Even if she had nothing to say, she shouldn’t ask such a question. She wished somebody could help her out,
“Sienna? Are you ready? Mirands called from outside.
“Grandma!” Sienna replied quickly, lifting her skirt as she walked out. Tim ready”
Suddenly, a
a deep male voice came from behind, quiet but clear, “Quite stunning
WHIC
He was answering her earlier question. Sienna was briefly taken shark but didn’t turn around as she hurried out of the room.
Josiah chuckled softly, standing still as his Adam’s apple bobbed sliglaly, murmuring, “Stunning”
Miranda looked at Sienna with curiosity. “What’s going on? Why’s your face so red?”
“Uh?” Sienna was startled. She didn’t know she was blushing. She nervously licked her lips. “Oh, it’s nothing. Just I couldn’t get the zipper up, so I got all flustered.”
“Oh, is that so!” Miranda chuckled. “Did you get it up? Need any help from met
“No need, I managed to zip it up!”
“Perfect timing. Linds wants us to co
us to come over and taste the dishes, care to join?
“Sure,” Sienna was more than willing and nodded eagerly. If Miranda found out she and Josials had been in the closet together, it would be hard to explain. “Grandma, let’s go”
After they left, Josiah came out of the closet, frowning as he rubbed his forehead. He didn’t know why. Sienna would run off, as if she was really worried about being caught by Miranda.
Night fell. Compared to the casual dinner at the rehab center a few days ago, tonight’s birthday party was clearly much more lively.
The Flynn residence was vast and could host more guests. At a glance, it seemed as if nearly all the socialites of Jeiacrity were present, many arriving with their entire families.
The previous welcome dinner was discreet, but this birthday party was the exact opposite, boldly announced with invitations. The invitations read, [Birthday Celebration for Sienna, the foster daughter of the Flynn family.]
At this moment, Siria was in her room. Her makeup was done. It was time to go out. She exhaled deeply at her reflection, pursed her lips, and smiled. Rising, Sienna gracefully lifted the hem of her dress.
Miranda and Joslali were already mingling with the guests. As soon as she reached the top of the stairs, Sienna could feel the lively atmosphere. Descending the staircase, Sienna glanced around the crowd and spotted Miranda, ready to sead over to her,
“Hi there! Just as she took a step, a young man appeared in front of hier, waving g with a smile.
