Chapter 109

Chapter 109 In the courthouse lobby, Josiah wasn’t alone. He had brought Gibert with him, “It’s like this. Gilbert glanced at Josiah, who was leaning back in is chair, looking completely detached.

He pulled a stack of papers from his briefcase. “Sienna, these are for you from Mr. Flynn. You never got around to taking care of the paperwork, so while we’re here, go ahead and sign everything. I’ll handle the rest.

“Alimony?“ she wondered. Sienna quickly shook her head. “Teaccept it It wasn’t that she was being overly dramatic or acting high and ighty. When she was homeless, it had been the Flynn family that took her in. She had to admit, they had taken very good care of her during those years.

The truth was that the Flynn family didn’t owe her anything. Asar as she was concerned, this marriage was her way of repaying a debt of gratitude.

“Repaying kindness” was something you could do with money, Josiah was getting impatient. “Just take it.”

Afraid she might reject it again, he added in a cold, firm voice, This is from me. Josiah, to my ex–wife. It has nothing to do “with the Flynn family, nothing to do with Grandma.”

Sienna was taken aback. Hearing him say it like that, she didn’t know how to refuse.

“Come on, Josiah muttered, frustration evident in his voice. He pulled out a cigarette and lighter from his pocket, but the courthouse didn’t allow smoking “I’m going to step out for a smoke.” With that, he stood up and walked toward the smoking room.

“Sienna.” Gilbert handed her the pen. “Here, sign it. If you don’t sign, we might not get the divorce done today.”

It seemed that was the case. “Alright,” she nodded.

Sienna nodded, took the pen, and signed her name on the papers one by one.

“Here” Gilbert handed her the ink pad. “You need to put your fingerprint here too.”

“Okay,” said Sienna.

Once all the signatures were in place and her fingerprint was stamped, Sienna wiped her hands with a wet napkin just as Josiah returned.

Gilbert checked their documents one last time. “Everything’s in order. You’re good to go.”

They’d been separated for four years. It was an amicable divorce with no disputes over property, and no children involved, so the process went by quickly.

“Here you go, both of you.” The clerk placed two certifications in front of them.

“Thank you. Sienna held hers tightly, her fingers trembling slightly.

Is she really that happy?“ he wondered. Josiah watched her, a strange, unnameable feeling welling up inside him.

He had wanted this divorce for so many years. But now that it was finally happening, it seemed like the one who felt relieved was Sienna “Well..” Sienna carefully slipped the booklet into her bag and, with a faint smile, added, “If there’s nothing else, I’ll be on my way.

1/3 20:47 Mon, Jan 6 Chapter 109 “Sienna. But Josiah called way to her before she could leave.

“Huh?” Sienna wasn’t as intimidated by him anymore. Her expression had softened, and her eyes were brighter now. “Is there something else?”

“Sorry,” he said.

For a moment. Sienna was stunned, almost not sure how to react Is he... apologizing to me? she wondered.

Josiah’s brow furrowed deeply, his face darkened, but when he spoke, he gave a bitter little laugh. “What are you staring at me for? I know I wasn’t a good husband”

“So what? Not every apology deserves to be forgiven, she thoug Sienna pulled her lips into a tight smile. “It doesn’t matter anymore. It’s all in the past.”

Yes, it was all in the past. Josiah took a deep breath and let out a low laugh. “You might not believe this...”

“What?” Sienna asked, confused.

“Back then... Josiah looked at her face, so naturally beautiful ever without makeup, and said hoarsely, “When we got married, I really did want to try and make it work with you.”

Otherwise, he never would have slept with her. Even though, at that time, he didn’t exactly feel affection for her. responsibility alone was enough to keep a marriage together.

If it weren’t for the whole incident with Yvette’s miscarriage later on, it would have been different.

“Is that so?“ she wondered. Sienna smiled faintly. She used to believe that kind of thing, but not anymore, not a single word of it She pointed toward the door. “So, can I leave now?”

“Yeah.” Josiah gave a small nod. “You can go.”

“Goodbye,” she said.

Sienna waved her hand and turned, walking toward the exit. Her steps were light, and she quickened her pace until she was running.

Running so fast, she found herself out of breath, gasping for air At the door, Cedric saw her and hurriedly got out of the car. “Sienna!”

“Cedric!” Sienna brightened, running toward him.

Right now, she needed a friend to share this joy with. She stopped in front of Cedric, and he lifted his arm, gently steadying her, worried she might trip.

“Be careful,” he warned.

“Tin fine.” Sienna grinned, showing her white teeth.

“I’m so happy! I’m really, really happy!” she called out.

“Yeah, I know,” Cedric looked down at her, smiling and nodding I can tell.”

She was smiling, but there were tears in her eyes. “Is this what they mean by crying tears of joy? she wondered.

Mon, Jan Chapter 109 Finally, Sienna couldn’t hold it in anymore. She covered her face with her hands and started to cry. Slowly, her shoulders trembled.

“Sienna?” Cedric was stunned, not knowing what to do.

What should I do in this situation?’ he wondered. He patted his pocket and realized he hadn’t brought any tissues. “Wait here.

He hurriedly went to open the car door. There was a box of tissues inside. He grabbed one and handed it to her. “Sienna, here.”

“No, don’t.” Sienna shook her head, crying. “I just... I just want to ry. I want to cry it all out.”

Cedric didn’t try to stop her. Though he wasn’t in her shoes, he tried to understand, ending a loveless marriage that had long since fallen apart.

Maybe, this was her way of feeling relief. “Go ahead and cry, Gedric said softly. “I’m here with you.”

Josiah sat in the car, watching them from a distance for a long while. He suddenly felt an emptiness, his face expressionless as he looked away.

“Zaid, drive, he ordered.

“Got it.” Zaid nodded.

The car pulled away. In his peripheral vision, Cedric gently held the tissue, carefully dabbing at Sienna’s tears, treating her like she was fragile.

At Lightning Dance, after getting to know Sienna over the past few days, Brenda finally made an announcement for her. “Alright, get ready to start practicing. Serene Joys Group D will be led by you,” she said.

Brenda’s tone was calm, but to Sienna, it felt like a thunderclap, ringing in her ears.

Sienna was stunned for a moment, unable to process it because it was just too hard to believe.

“What’s wrong?” Brenda frowned. “Is this something you’re not willing to do?”

Sienna snapped back to her senses. “No, of course not.”

Chapter 1750 She was willing, of course. “Ms. Scott, Sienna said, being honest 1 just joined the group, Won’t this cause problems? Won’t the others be upset?”

“Huh?” Brenda let out a small laugh. That’s something for you to figure out. If you’re worried about them not accepting you, then make them accept you.”

“But...” Sienna hesitated.

“But what?” Brenda raised an eyebrow. “You’re hesitating like this, are you planning to just stay in the dance studio running errands forever? If that’s the case, you can leave now. I’ve got plenty of people doing the grunt work around here.”
