Chapter 26

‘I don’t know Sienna? Does he really know her so well that he would skip meals just to find her? Yvette thought, anger bubbling inside her.

Josiah stepped ourside but couldn’t find Sienna. “Where could she have gone Grandma’s surgery

ry is still going on, she wouldn’t just take off thought and pulled out his phone to call her.

The phone rang, but before she picked up, he heard her ringtone nearby. Following the sound, he walked toward the fire escape and spotted her

“Hello!” Sienna had just answered when the call dropped. “Huh? What’s going on?”

“What’s going on?” Josiah’s voice came from behind her.

Shocked, Sienna turned around. “Why are you here?”

“That’s my question. Why are you hiding here?” Josiah frowned, his handsome face suddenly serious. “Come eat with me. Do you need a formal invitation? Are you a kid?”

“No need” Sienna shook her head.

“No need againt is that all you can say!” Josiah was getting frustrated with those two words “Who knows how long the surgery will take. If Grandma comes out and you faint from hunger, that’s going to be my problem too”

“I really don’t need to.” Sienna insisted.

“Be honest” Josiah narrowed his eyes, studying her striking face. “You’re afraid to face Yvette, aren’t you?”

“What?” Josiah looked puzzled, not following what she was referring to.

“Nothing” Sienna replied, not wanting to know anymore. She felt it was pointless and regretted asking in the first place.

Four years ago, Josiah had taken Yvette’s word without any evidence. Was he really going to try to clear Sienna’s name now! Sienna doubted it Besides, at this point, she didn’t care if she was wrongly accused.

She shook her head, insisting. It’s nothing. I really don’t need anything. You all go ahead and est. I have something to cat.”

“What do you…” Josiah trailed off as his eyes landed on the stairs. He noticed her black backpack propped against them, and on top of it, there was a lunchbox
