Caught In His Embrace: A Second Chance Romance

Chapter 65

Everything around was pitch black , and nothing could be seen .

Josiah quickly looked up toward Sienna’s apartment .

It was the same there .

She must be scared alone in her rundown place

Without much thought , Josiah unlocked his phone and turned on the flashlight , moving forward .

This time , he didn’t bring anything , and with his long legs , he quickly climbed several steps at once , swiftly reaching the fifth floor .

Inside the apartment , Sienna was holding her phone , searching through the drawer for candles .

She was a bit surprised when she heard the knock on the door .

She ran to open the door .

“ Who’s there ? ”

“ Who else could it be? ” In the darkness , Josiah’s deep eyes fixed on her .

“ What , do you have a lot of visitors ? Besides that grain seller from last time , who else ?

Sienna blinked in confusion and shook her head , “ No one else .

“ Hmph ” Josiah scoffed as he strode in and sat down on the couch .

“ What’s going on ? ”

“ Oh , ” Sienna explained , “ The power’s out ”

“ What ? ” Josiah couldn’t believe it , “ Power’s out ? ” In this day and age , in such a booming place as Jeiacrity , there couldn’t possibly be a power outage .

“ That’s just the way it is ,” Sienna replied , “ 12th Avenue is an impoverished neighborhood and many of the lines are outdated and frequently need repairs ,” Things like this were naturally beyond the understandin

g of Josiah , who had grown up in a wealthy neighborhood .

“ This run – down place .

Josiah frowned in displeasure .

“ Why are you so stubborn about living here ? ”

Sienna didn’t want to respond to that .

Instead , she asked him , “ Did you come up for any particular re

reason ”

Hearing that , Josiah was at a loss .

He didn’t know what to reply .

He couldn’t bring himself to say something gross like he was worried about her .

Josiah grunted , “ I just came to check things out and
