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.

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.
