Caught In His Embrace: A Second Chance Romance

Chapter 396

Sienna frowned but agreed, "Alright." She got up and followed behind Josiah, one after the other, out of the ward.

Josiah glanced at his watch and said, "It's almost noon. Perfect timing for lunch. How about Lucky Dining?"

Sienna glanced at him and said, "Okay."

They arrived at Lucky Dining and were shown to a private room.

"What do you want to eat?" Josiah asked as he handed her the menu.

Sienna took a sip of water and waved her hand dismissively, saying, "Anything is fine."

"Alright, I'll order," Josiah said. He called the waiter over and rattled off a list of dishes. "We'll start with these. Remember, no cilantro, onion, ginger, or garlic," he added.

"Yes, Mr. Flynn," the waiter replied.

Sienna frowned slightly. He had ordered all her favorites, and made sure to exclude everything she disliked. She set her water down and looked up at him.

"Didn't you have something to say? Speak," Siennna demanded.

Josiah smiled faintly and said, "Let's eat first. We can talk later."

And true to his word, they ate first. After the dishes arrived, Josiah only cared

about serving her food. "This venison-you love it," he said.

"Thank you," Sienna said and looked at the growing pile of food in her bowl. She lowered her head and ate slowly.

Josiah watched quietly and murmured, "You have a good appetite."

When she was almost done eating, he served her another bowl of soup. "It's a little hot. Drink it slowly," he said.

"Okay," Sienna nodded and took small sips.
