Out of nowhere .

Sienna interrupted the moment , raising her phone .

“ Excuse me , where is paying ? I will cover it .”

“ Well ..

” George was taken aback , instinctively glancing at Josiah .

“ What’s going on here ! he wondered .

Josiah , however , simply smiled , exuding a natural air of refinement .

His tone was distant and laced with sarcasm .

“ You pay ? Don’t be ridiculous .

Why would she need to pay for it ? That’s absurd , he thought .

Josiah was well aware that Sienna hadn’t accepted any alimony , and the linle she earned from dancing at Maze wasn’t nearly enough to cover this .

“ Keep your paycheck for yourself .

I’ll take care of it , ” he said .

“ I want to pay for it myself ; Sienna insisted , summoning all her courage .

“ Really now ? ” he wondered .

Josiah’s gaze softened as he observed her .

“ Alright ,” he relented , his tone carrying the indulgence of someone humoring a child .

You pay , as long as it makes you happy !

Hearing his agreement .

Sienna brightened instantly , failing to catch the faint trace of irony in his voice .

“ George , are we paying or not !”

“This way please ,” George replied , still slightly bewildered .

What a confusing relationship .

Oh well , I’ll just focus on doing my job , he wondered .

“ Will that be cash or card ? ” George asked .

“ Card Sienna replied promptly .

“ Got it , ” George said .

“ Now , the original price for this toy is 13,000 dollars .

The staff discount brings it down to 7,000 dollars , and since you’re a friend of Mr.
