Caught In His Embrace: A Second Chance Romance

Chapter 144

Zach picked up on what Josiah was hinting at right away. “Mr. Flynn, you want to get rid of her?” Zach asked.

“Yes,” Josiah confirmed with a subtle nod. It was a no–brainer. He wasn’t going to leave a time bomb near Sienna otherwise.

Sienna had some really bad colic this time. And it happened on a stormy day when roads were closed. If Josiah hadn’t shown up just in time, she could’ve gotten into big trouble. Josiah couldn’t believe how ruthless Nina was being.

At the same time, Cedric got to the Harbwood Hospital.

“Excuse me, was there a patient named Sienna brought in a bit ago Cedric asked.

“Yep, she’s in Observation Room 3, the nurse told him.

“Sienna” Cedric softly held Sienna’s hand, treating it like a delicate treasure.

“Sorry I got here late, he apologized, his voice heavy with guilt. Just really glad you’re alright.”

Her hand gave a slight twitch in his grip

“Sienna“” Cedric asked, his voice rising in surprise. “You awake?”

Sienna’s eyes fluttered open, a small furrow appearing on her brow. “Cedric… it’s you,” she whispered, her voice barely there.

Her mind was foggy from the pain, and she only vaguely recalled being rushed to the hospital. She hadn’t thought it was Cedric who helped her.

Her surprise quickly faded. With blocked roads in the storm, Cedric was the only one she thought would care for her to such an extent and go to such trouble for her.

“Yeah, it’s me,” Cedric said with a nod, not knowing what her words implied. “Sorry about the delay. Feeling any better?”

“Much better. Sienna replied, her voice still weak. “How’d you find out I was sick?”

“Jum told me,” Cedric said.

Sienna recalled Queenie was at the hotel with Brenda, which explained how Jim knew about her illness.

She noticed Cedric was totally drenched. “Why’re you-
