Caught In His Embrace: A Second Chance Romance

Chapter 381

Joyce, before this, Josiah used Joyce to force Sienna to agree to his proposal. But now, that threat was gone.

Sienna let a gentle smile spread across her face. "Joyce is my daughter. I'll take good care of her, so you don't have to worry."

Sienna didn't dare mention the successful bone marrow match. Knowing Josiah's impulsive nature, she feared that if Josiah found out, it might cause trouble.

Sienna thought, 'Though I don't think Josiah would hurt our kid. But I hadn't thought he would use Joyce to threaten me before.'

"Can I be at ease?" Josiah repeated her words, his eyes darkening before a mocking smile spread. "Are you counting on the fact that even if you dump me, I can't abandon Joyce?"

Sienna thought, 'Really? Is that his true thought?' Her eyes widened in surprise. Sienna had considered this before. But she never dared to risks with Joyce and didn't try.

Hearing this, Sienna felt a warmth in her heart. She sighed softly and said quietly, "I appreciate how good you are to Joyce. If you're willing, you're always welcome to visit Joyce. Just give us a call beforehand."

Sienna slowly lifted her hand, took off the red diamond ring from her left ring finger, and placed it on the table. Then, she picked up her bag and stood up.

Sienna took off the red diamond ring, and Josiah's heart trembled. Josiah realized Sienna was leaving. Sienna didn't want him anymore. Once she walked away, he would no longer have any reason to keep her.

"Sienna!" Overwhelmed by panic, Josiah opened his arms and hugged Sienna from behind. Since Sienna was facing away, she couldn't see the humble and sincere expression on Josiah's face at that moment.

Josiah's cheek nestled in the crook of Sienna's neck as he begged her. "Don't leave. I won't let you leave." His voice started to break, "I'm begging you, please don't leave. What am I going to do without you, Sienna? I can't be without you."

Josiah was already living like a solitary person, and to him, Sienna was not just a lover but also a family, a kindred spirit. Sienna was his connection to life and the anchor of his soul.
