Caught In His Embrace: A Second Chance Romance

Chapter 85

“ What ? The shock was too much .

Sienna’s eyes widened , and a piece of bread got stuck in her throat .

She couldn’t swallow it or cough it up .

“ Cough , cough ! ”

“ Sienna ! ” Josiah was startled , immediately getting up and moving to her side .

“ What’s wrong ? Let me see ! ”

He held her face in his hands , trying to pry open her mouth .

Sienna refused to open her mouth , shaking her head vigorously .

“ My mouth is full of breadcrumbs ; how could I show him that ? Most importantly , why should I show him ? ‘ she thought

“ Don’t be stubborn ! ” Josiah frowned with worry , wishing he could just force her mouth open

“ Mr.

Flynn ” Linda couldn’t stand it anymore and brought over a glass of water .

“ Ms.

Shaw seems to be choking : let her drink some water .

”

Sienna couldn’t say anything so she just nodded repeatedly ,

“ Give it to me ! ” Josiah snatched the glass as Sienna reached out for it , but he wouldn’t let her take it .

He brought the glass to her lips .

“ Drink it ! ”

With no other option , Sienna didn’t want to choke , so she drank as he held the glass .

After swallowing several gulps of water , she finally felt at ease .

Sienna looked up and pushed the glass away .

“ Is it enough !” Josiah still seemed worried .

“ Are you okay now ! Feeling better ? ”

“Yes ” Sienna nodded .

“ I’m okay ”

“ That’s good .” Josiah sighed in relief , putting the glass down and gently tapping her nose .

You can chake on bread ? Could you be any more Careless ? ”

Sienna frowned and tilted her head .

She really didn’t like him touching her , not at all .

As his hand lay empty , Josiah’s face froze momentarily , but he wasn’t angry .

In fact , he was more upset after overhearing her say she didn’t like him on the balcony .

Josiah stood up and sat back in his chair , lowered his head , and continued slicing the bread

Watching this made Sienna nervous , and she quickly said , “ I don’t want it anymore … just don’t bother

Josiah paused for a couple of seconds , then lifted his hand and gazed deeply at her .
