Caught In His Embrace: A Second Chance Romance

Chapter 101

The elevator reached the top floor, and the receptionist left after escorting Sienna. She made her way to the CEO’s office on her own

When she entered, Josiah was still busy.

“You’re here?” Josiah glanced up at her and said, “Let me finish up quickly. Have a seat for now.”

“Alright, she nodded.

Sienna sat down on the sofa and lowered her head, noticing a brwn paper package on the coffee table. It looked familiar.

Wait a second… isn’t this just like the one Yvette was holding earlier? Could it be the same thing inside? she wondered.

“Figured it out by the smell?” Josiah’s voice broke her train of thought. She hadn’t even realized he had finished working and walked over.

He gestured toward the brown package. “Go ahead, and open it.

““Huh?” Sienna furrowed her brows slightly, not making a move.

“Hey,” Josiah smirked, clearly expecting this moment. “What’s wrong? Afraid I’d poison you or something? Relax It’s something you like.”

As soon as the package was opened, a sweet and tangy aroma waffed out. It was hawthorn candy.

Sienna’s eyes flickered. Just as she thought, it was the same as the one Yvette had.

“Don’t just stare at it” Josiah nudged the package closer to her. “Try some. I remember you used to like it, didn’t you?”

‘Have I ever eaten hawthorn candy in front of him?‘ she wonderel

“Yeah, Josiah mused for a second. “Back then, you were eating hawthorn strip. This is made from the same fruit, so I figured you’d like it too. I got it just for you”

Just for me?’ she wondered. Sienna silently repeated the words to herself. “No, more likely, he bought it just for Yvette

If she hadn’t bumped into Yvette earlier, maybe Sienna would’ve believed him. After all, Josiah genuinely didn’t like sour- sweet snacks like this,

He really cared about Yvette, so much so that even small treats like this weren’t overlooked.

“Why aren’t you eating” Josiah held the package in front of her for what felt like forever, but she still didn’t move.
