Caught In His Embrace: A Second Chance Romance

Chapter 125

‘What? I couldn’t have heard that right, she wondered. Sienna stood frozen, as though someone had paralyzed her, unable to move a muscle or even form an expression.

She was so stunned, she couldn’t believe it.

“You… what did you say?” she hesitated.

“What’s wrong?” Brenda chuckled lightly. “You don’t understand me?”

Brenda shook her head. “You only get one shot at this. Or do you prefer pursuing a career in entertainment rather than coming back to dance?”

“I would prefer to,” Sienna said, her voice filled with excitement. Her face flushed red, and she stumbled over her words.

“No, no, Ms. Scott, I mean, I do want to come back to dance. I want to dance with you,” she repeated.

Her thoughts were finally starting to clear. Overcome with emotion, her eyelashes glistened with a tear or two.

“Ms. Scott, I’m sorry. I’m just so happy,” she said.

Sienna couldn’t even have imagined, in her wildest dreams, that she’d get another chance to return to the dance studio, especially with Brenda personally coming to find her.

“Thank you, Ms. Scott. Thank you so much for giving me this opportunity,” she repeated.

It was clear she was genuinely overjoyed. Sienna had made mistakes, but there was no denying her talent for dancing, and her true passion for it. In today’s world, few people in the entertainment industry would willingly choose the dance studio over fame and fortune.

The glitz of the entertainment world is tempting, and not everyone can resist the allure of wealth and recognition.

Brenda nodded, satisfied. “You don’t have to thank me.”

‘If you really want to thank someone, you should thank Mr. Flynn,‘ She thought, but she kept it to herself. Josiah had asked her to stay quiet about it.

As for why Josiah wanted to help without taking credit? That wasn’t for Brenda to figure out.

“Alright, I’m off.” Brenda stood up. “We’ll finish the shoot tonight and tomorrow, you’ll report to the dance studio.”

“Yes, Ms. Scott. Safe travels,” said Sienna.

After Brenda left, Sienna’s heart was still soaring. She immediately went to find Derek.

“Derek, I’m sorry. I think I’m just not cut out for the entertainment industry. After finishing today’s shoot, I won’t be coming back,” she said.

“So, this is your final decision?” Derek was confused. ‘Why is she turning this down?” he wondered.
