On the other end, Josiah answered quickly. His deep voice was calm and steady. “Hello.”
“It’s me, Sienna” Sienna said nervously, gripping the phone tightly.
Do you think I wouldn’t know it’s you?” He teased, “Did you call just to tell me that?”
“No, it’s not” Sienna furrowed her brows and took a deep breath, “I’m at Maze now….
“Oh, that thing” Josiah interrupted her, not letting her continue.

After hanging up, Sienna immediately headed to Flynn Tower. When she arrived, she was st
It wasn’t her first time at Flynn Tower. She used to come by often, but it had been years, and the receptionists had changed, so no one recognized fier anymore.
Sienna said. “Tm Sienna. I’ve arranged a meeting with Mr. Flynn: he told me to come End him.”
Upon hearing this, the receptionist immediately greeted her with a smile and more politeness. “Ms. Shaw, Mr. Flynn informed us. Please follow me… This way, please.”
“Thank you” Sienna greeted her back with a nod
She took the private elevator and smoothly reached the top floor. A young assistant led her into the CEO’s office. “Mr. Flynn, Ms Shaw is here.
“Hmm” Jonah was busy and just waved his hand. “Alright, you can get back to work.”
“Okay”
The assistant left, leaving Sienna alone with him. Seeing how busy he was, Siena didn’t dare disturb him, fearing one wrong move would escalate his displeasure towards her.

Sienna was at a loss for words.
Sienna was shocked. “So it is true. Because I didn’t go along with him, he stopped my work! He’s just the same as he was four years ago-
-just as
Unfortunately, she had no choice but to how before him. After all, he was Josiah, the one who practically controlled everything in Jelarrity
Sienna suppressed her anger and frustration, pursed her lips. “I was being ungrateful. Fin really sorry”
“No need to apologize.” Josiah sat up straight, leaning in slightly, his eyes deeply locking with Sienna’s. “What I want… is you.”
Simple and direct Strike with precision, hit the target!
Sienna was left speechless, feeling a sharp pain in her heart. She struggled to speak, T…”
“Enough.” But as soon as she began, he cut her off,
He had to stop her. Whatever she wanted to say, Josish could guess it even if he wasn’t trying. “Are you sure you i want to refuse me?
Sienna was at a loss for words.
Yeah, she didn’t dare. The last time she refused, her job at Maze was put on
on hold. If it happens again, what else would have left? she wondered. Sienna remained silent Josiah wasn’t
wasn’t pleased either, but it was better than outright rejection. At least she was still afraid.
Josiah glanced at his watch, a slight smile on his lips. “It’s late, and I’m hungry.”
He got up, looking at Sienna. “Sienna, come have dinner with me
Sienna was surprised, suddenly looking up, not understanding how the topic changed to dinner so quickly.
The man raised an eyebrow. “Not coming? Do you want to make me upset?”
“Not Sienna shook her head quickly, biting her lip and hesitated. “If I have dinner with you, would you let me go back to Maze to dance?”
“Tsk” Josiah clicked his tongue in dissatisfaction. “You’re making conditions just to have a meal with me, Sienna, have you always been this unlikabler
“Unlikable” Sienna was take
Sienna was taken aback. If I’m so unlikable, why did he say he wanted me! He must have other intentions, she thought,
“Let’s ga“Without giving her time to say anything else, Josiah turned and walked ahead,

Having no choice, Sienna quickly caught up.
Once in the car. Josiah asked Sienna, “What do you want to eat?”
“Anything’s fine”
“Theres no anything on the menu Josiah was a bit irritated, feeling she wasn’t interested in accompanying him for a meal. Sienna felt awkward
Zaid spoke up for her, saying. “Mr. Flynn, Sienna hasn’t returned to Jescrity in many years, so she’s probably not very familiar

Chapter 81:
“Alright.” Josiah closed the menu and handed it to the waiter. “Bring us a bottle of red wine too.”
Red wine! Sienna kept her patience and silently hoped that his mood would be better after the meal.
The meal was served, and the two sat facing each other. Across from her, Josiah enjoyed his steak and red wine with great appetite, his posture elegant. Meanschile, Sienna barely touched her food, chewing it with little interest, likely on the verge of indigestion.
“Why aren’t you eating“” Josiah looked up at her, noticing the untouched steak on her plate.
Josiah sighed as he walked over to her, took her knife and fork, and carefully cut her steak into small pieces. Then he handed the utensils back to
her.
“It’s ready. Enjoy your meal.
Returning to his seat, he smiled faintly. If I hadn’t cut it, were
planning on starving yourself?
Sienna was speechless. 1 didn’t mean it like thatt Seriously, is something wrong with Josiah?
After finishing their meal Josiah stood up. “I’m full. Let’s head home.”
Sienna quickly put her glass down and followed him
Suddenly, Josiah stumbled, his whole body leaning towards her.
Josiah!” Sienna was startled but managed to catch him
Josiah took the opportunity to open his arms wide and leaned completely into her embrace, a satisfied grin on his face.
