Caught In His Embrace A Second Chance Romance
Chapter 125 âWhat? I couldnât have heard that right, she wondered. Sienna stood frozen, as though someone had paralyzed her, unable to move a muscle or even form an expression.
She was so stunned, she couldnât believe it.
âYou... what did you say?â she hesitated.
âWhatâs wrong?â Brenda chuckled lightly. âYou donât understand me?â
Brenda shook her head. âYou only get one shot at this. Or do you prefer pursuing a career in entertainment rather than coming back to dance?â
âI would prefer to,â Sienna said, her voice filled with excitement. Her face flushed red, and she stumbled over her words.
âNo, no, Ms. Scott, I mean, I do want to come back to dance. I want to dance with you,â she repeated.
Her thoughts were finally starting to clear. Overcome with emotion, her eyelashes glistened with a tear or two.
âMs. Scott, Iâm sorry. Iâm just so happy,â she said.
Sienna couldnât even have imagined, in her wildest dreams, that sheâd get another chance to return to the dance studio, especially with Brenda personally coming to find her.
âThank you, Ms. Scott. Thank you so much for giving me this opportunity,â she repeated.
It was clear she was genuinely overjoyed. Sienna had made mistakes, but there was no denying her talent for dancing, and her true passion for it. In todayâs world, few people in the entertainment industry would willingly choose the dance studio over fame and fortune.
The glitz of the entertainment world is tempting, and not everyone can resist the allure of wealth and recognition.
Brenda nodded, satisfied. âYou donât have to thank me.â
âIf you really want to thank someone, you should thank Mr. Flynn,â She thought, but she kept it to herself. Josiah had asked her to stay quiet about it.
As for why Josiah wanted to help without taking credit? That wasnât for Brenda to figure out.
âAlright, Iâm off.â Brenda stood up. âWeâll finish the shoot tonight and tomorrow, youâll report to the dance studio.â
âYes, Ms. Scott. Safe travels,â said Sienna.
After Brenda left, Siennaâs heart was still soaring. She immediately went to find Derek.
âDerek, Iâm sorry. I think Iâm just not cut out for the entertainment industry. After finishing todayâs shoot, I wonât be coming back,â she said.
âSo, this is your final decision?â Derek was confused. âWhy is she turning this down?â he wondered.
âYes, sorry, Derek. Iâve thought it through, and Iâm just better suited for dancing,â Sienna explained.
Sienna spoke honestly. âIâm going back to the dance studio.â
Derek realized what was happening. Surprised, but not opposed he smiled and didnât push her further. âAlright, I get it. Just make sure to finish the scene well tonight.â
1/3 20:54 Mon, Jan 6 Chapter 125 15 âDonât worry.â Sienna was deeply grateful to Derek. âEven if Iâm not in this circle anymore, Iâll never forget the help you gave me.â
Derek smiled back. âSame here. Iâll always remember you as a friend. Iâll be cheering you on for your first stage performance.â
âThank you.â Sienna shook his hand seriously. âThank you, Derek The nightâs shoot went smoothly. After removing her makeup, Sienna received a video call request from William.
Every now and then, Joyce would ask him or Hannah to make video calls at this hour.
Sienna pressed the button to answer, and Joyceâs chubby little face immediately appeared on the screen âMommy,â she said.
âHuh? Joyce?â said Sienna.
âMommy, I miss you. When are you coming home?â Joyce said.
Sienna felt a pang in her heart. Of course, she missed her daughter, but she had to establish herself at feiacrity. Once Joyce returned, they could have a stable life together.
For now, the separation was inevitable.
âJoyce, I need to talk to Mr. Thompson about it first. Once we figure it out, Iâll tell you, okay?â Sienna said.
âOkay!â Joyce obediently handed the phone over to William. âMr. Thompson, here you go.â
âThank you, Joyce.â The camera switched to show William.
âHi, Sienna,â he greeted her.
âWilliam, about Joyceâs surgery...â Sienna began.
âI was just about to tell you. If everything goes as planned, Joyceâs surgery should be in less than a month, just under two months from now,â William said.
He added, âThe exact date will be set one week before the surgery, and Iâll let you know as soon as I get the confirmation. Youâre making arrangements to come back, right?â
âYes, of course.â Siennaâs eyes instantly filled with tears. âSo, in less than two months, Joyce... she...â
Her excitement overwhelmed her, leaving her unable to speak.
âYes.â William understood her emotions and finished for her. âIn less than two months, Joyce will have the surgery. After that, sheâll be like any other child.â
Suddenly, Sienna pressed her hand to her mouth, her vision becoming blurry.
âThank you, thank you so much, William,â she said.
After getting ready, Sienna left the set and received a call from Cedric.
âHey, Sienna?â The sound on the other end of the line was a little noisy.
9 Cedric raised his voice. âAre you done with your night shoot? Iâm passing by the film studio. I can pick you up.â
He wasnât really passing by. He had been planning this, but since Sienna hadnât yet accepted him, he couldnât be too obvious 2/3 20:54 Mon, Jan 6 Chapter 125 about it.
âYouâre at the film studio?â Sienna stood still and looked around. Iâm right outside, but I donât see you. Where are you?
âI see you. Donât move,â he said.
âOkay.â Sienna nodded.
In a few moments, Cedricâs Pagani stopped in front of Sienna. Cedric got out of the car and walked toward her.
âHi, Cedric.â Tonight, Sienna was in a great mood. Her work had taken a positive turn, and Joyceâs surgery had finally been scheduled.
After all these years, her life was finally blooming with hope.
Looking at her smiling face, Cedric couldnât help but smile as well. âYouâre really happy today?â
âYeah, I am.â Sienna glanced at him. âCedric, thank you.â
Cedric looked surprised. âThank me? What did I do?â
âYou donât remember?â Sienna smiled, still beaming. âLast time, you asked Thomasâs mother to help talk to Ms. Scott for me.â
âAh.â Cedric paused and nodded. âBut that wasnât...â
It worked.â Sienna laughed. âTonight, Ms. Scott came to find me. She said Iâm supposed to report to the dance studio tomorrow.â
âReally?â Cedric was pleasantly surprised and genuinely happy for her. âThatâs amazing news. But...â

ï¤Chapter 1750 He seemed uncertain. âWhen Thomas told me, Mrs. Zimmerman couldnât convince Ms. Scott...â
âHuh?â Sienna froze for a moment. âYou mean it wasnât Mrs. Zimmerman who helped?â
She shook her head. âBut, who else could have persuaded Ms. Scott?â
Cedric didnât want to take any credit. âAnyway, it wasnât my doing. When I see Thomas, Iâll make sure to thank him properly,â
âOkay.â Sienna nodded with a smile. âI should thank him, thank Mrs. Zimmerman. And, of course, thank you too. Do you think I couldâve talked to Thomas on my own?â
She said seriously, âThank you, Cedric.â
She was so happy that she turned and pointed in a direction. âAre you hungry? Let me treat you to some lateânight snacks?â
