Caught In His Embrace: A Second Chance Romance

Chapter 73

Sienna was stunned , not sure what Miranda meant .

“ Grandma , ” Sienna swallowed hard and asked uncertainly , “ What kind of ‘ like’do you mean ? ”

“ Oh .

Sienna ” Miranda set down her soup bowl with a smile .

“What other kind of like’is there ! Of course , it’s the kind between a man and a woman .

Then she added , “I mean , did you like him the way you used to like Josiah ? ”

Sienna was a bit confused , “ Grandma , why do you ask ? ” She thought Miranda might misunderstand something because Cedric brought her home .

She laughed and shook her head .

“ There’s nothing between us .

We just bumped into each other on the way , and he kindly offered to give me a lift , that’s all ”

“ More than that , right ? Miranda pointed out .

“ At your birthday party , didn’t you both chat and laugh a lot ! 1 think you two really hit it off .

“ Grandma .

” Sienna was both amused and frustrated .

“ What are you talking about ? There’s nothing going

Miranda assumed Sienna was just being shy , so she toned down her expression .

“ I think he’s a good guy and he seems interested in you .

Be honest with me , do you like him even a little bit ? ”

“ What ?” Sienna couldn’t even maister a laugh this time .

Miranda didn’t seem to be joking , and there was a lot of meaning in her words .

Sienna frowned slightly : “ Grandma .

I don’t quite understand what you mean ”

Miranda sighed as she dabbed the corner of her mouth with a napkin .

Her eyes were filled with deep affection for Sienna .

“ I just want to find you a good match , dear .

Cedric’s a decent guy who comes from a good family .

“ But most importantly , it’s about whether you like him .

”

“ Grandma ! ” Sienna was shocked , her face turning pale .

She shook her head repeatedly .

“ Quit joking around .

How could that even be possible ? ” She had never thought about being with Cedric She didn’t think of herself as a good match for him .

“ Who said I’m joking ?” Miranda frowned .

“ I would never joke about your future .
