Caught In His Embrace: A Second Chance Romance

Chapter 309 Ive changed a bit from four years ago , but as the saying goes , You can take the boy ou out of the country , but you cant take the country out of the boy My essence remains the same , Sienna said .

She leaned back in her seat , her smile faint as she spoke , You used to dislike me so much ; you wouldnt like me much more now .

This had been proven in their interactions over the past while .

He did have some affection for her , but it wasnt enough for her to let go of the past , much less to build a lasting future .

Josiahs insides churned , but his lips curled into a mokking smile as he said , Whether I like you or not , you should know better than I do , right ? Hmm Sienna raised an eyebrow and said .

Never heard of the onlookers see most of the game ? She stared right at his handsome face , speaking seriously .

Im just your second choice .

Four years ago , I was foolish and paid a heavy price for it .

Four years later , why would you think Id repeat the same mistake ! Just because you find me more tolerable than you did four years ago ? Sienna said .

Upon hearing this , the mans eyes darkened suddenly .

Sienna took a deep breath and said , Im grateful that youve accepted Joyce and are responsible for her .

Youre not entirely without redeeming qualities But we dont need to force ourselves together for joyces sake .

We can just love her from our own sides , Sienna finished , closed her eyes , and leaned back , not intending to continue the topic .

Sienna .

Faced with her resistant attitude , Josiah wanted to say something but stopped himself , only managing to bitterly twist his lips and drive in silence .

The car stopped in front of the apartment building .

Thanks Sienna turned to open the car door , only to find it locked .

She said , Josiah , open the door , please Josiah didnt move , took a piece of gum from the storage box , popped it into his mouth , and even offered it to Sienna with a wave of his hand , saying , Want some ! Sienna was taken aback , frowned , and said , I need to get out of the cart Seeing Josiah still unmoving , she anxiously lunged over , trying to unlock Taking the opportunity , Josiah pulled her into a tight embrace .

Sienna looked up in shock .

He murmured her name affectionately , and said , Weve been together for so long .
