Caught In His Embrace A Second Chance Romance
Chapter 139 Yvette stormed off, clearly upset.
Josiah rubbed his temples, feeling stumped. Is Howard really seeing someone else? he wondered.
He wouldnât tell Yvette even if he knew, but he was genuinely clueless about Howardâs feelings.
That night, everyone at the Flynn residence was bound to have a sleepless night.
The next morning, at the breakfast table, only Miranda and Howard were there, Josiah had left early, and Yvette, unusually, was still in bed.
Miranda sighed, putting down her fork and looking at Howard. âHoward, I donât know whatâs going on, but if itâs true. I have to say though youâre my grandson, cheating is never okayâ
thisâeven Howard stayed silent.
âI trust theres a reason for this. Youâve always been sensible,â Miranda said, leaning towards him and pointing upstairs, âYvette is really upset. You should go and talk to her and try to smooth things over Yeah, got it. Howard nodded slowly.
âThatâs the spirit.â Miranda said, relieved. âYvette has been waiting for you for so long, you canât just let her down.â
She called to the caregiver, âCould you take Howard upstairs?â
âSure thing. Madam,â the caregiver replied.
Upstairs, the caregiver wheeled Howard to Yvetteâs room and knocked âYvette, itâs Howardâ
There was silence for a moment. The caregiver checked the door and said, âHoward, itâs unlockedâ
Howard nodded, and the caregiver stepped back.
Till be right outside, the caregiver added.
With a nod, Howard opened the door and rolled in. The room was dark, with the curtains tightly closed. He took a moment to let his eyes adjust and carefully rolled his wheelchair to the bed. Yvette lay there, her back to him, seeiningly unaware of his presence.
Howard gripped the armrests of his wheelchair, struggling to speak. âTim... sorry, he managed to say. Yvetteâs eyes snapped open, but she didnât move.
Howard continued slowly, âDonât be mad When she didnât respond, he inched closer, trying to stand with the wheelchair for support. âWhat are you doing?â Yvette asked, sensing something was off. She turned quickly and caught Howard as he stood up, nearly losing his balance. They ended up in a tight embrace.
âIâm sorry,â Howard whispered into into her ear âUgh.â Yvette felt tears welling up. âSince you know y you would hurt me, why did you do in âNo. No, itâs no not like that Howard shook his head.
Yvelle was confused. âAre you saying itâs not what I I think?
âWhat do you meanâ y âYeahâ Howard nodded slowly.
Then. âYvette almost asked about the other woman but stopped herself, remembering his reaction from yesterday. She didnât want to push him boo far.
âPromise Yvette said, stepping back. âYou wont see her againâ
Howardâs s eyes darkened brielly, but he nodded. âYeah, I promise.â
Thank you, Yvette said in surprise, hugging him. âTve waited for you for four years. You donât know how I struggled. I canât lose you...
1/3 D DreameâRead Romance Stories Installed Chapter 139 Î Howard was quiet, his brow furrowed They made up, finally. Yvette pulled away, got out of bed, and said, âI have one event today, but Iâll be back early to help with your rehab, Wait for me, okay?â
Howard just nodded In the afternoon. Yvette returned home early, just as sheâd expected.
The house was eerily quiet, everyone was napping, and even Linda, the housekeeper, seemed to have vanished. Yvette tiptoed upstairs, trying to avoid making any noise.
The whole situation with Howard and his past seemed to be over, but Yvette couldnât shake the feeling that it wasnât really behind them. She wondered if Howard had truly moved on She approached his bedroom door and, without knocking, gently opened it. To her surprise, Howard was fast asleep.
Feeling a mix of disappointment and relief, Yvette tiptoed over to the bed and noticed his phone lying next to the pillow.
Her heart started racing. She hit her lip, held her breath, picked up the phone, and swiped the screen, scanning it over Howardâs face. The screen unlocked.
Wette looked at the lit screen and saw a photo that made her freeze. It was Sienna, captured in a candid shot as she left the theater with her colleagues after a performance. It must have been Hervey who took the picture and sent it Yvette felt a rush of disbelief and coldness in her feet. She held her forehead, feeling unsteady, and looked at Howard, still fast asleep. She wondered in shock, âSo it was it was Sienna? The girl in the photo he had burned in a hurry last time was Sienna How could this be?? She couldnât believe Howard had feelings for Sienna. When did this happen? It must have been a few years ago, and she hadnât noticed it at all. Yvette let out a soft, bitter laugh and thought, Siennaâs always clinging to Josiah, yet she has secretly won Howardâs heart too. How absurd. Everyone in town thinks Iâm basking in their affection, but actually, thatâs just a rumor. Sienna is the one who has captivated both of them. What a bitch Suddenly, Yvette glared at Howard on the bed with anger. He had betrayed her with his brotherâs love, She raised her hand, intending to wake him up and confront him, but she froze. She thought. âNo, I canât do this. If Howard admits it. Iâll have nothing left. No, Yvette, calm down.
Think it over. One wrong move can lead to a series of mistakes. I need to carefully consider what to do next. At least I figured out who won Howardâs heart.
Miranda had her checkâup, and Sienna was with her.
When they returned to the Flynn residence, they fo found Howard in the living room, patiently waiting in his wheelchair. âYouâre... back...â he said.
âYep, Howard, weâre backâ Sienna replied with a smile.
Miranda invited her to stay for dinner. âSienna, why donât you join us for dinner?â
Thanks, Miranda, but I canât, Sienna said âI have dance p practice in tonightâ
âOli?â Miranda was surprised. âI thought you didnât have a performance today.â
âNo performance, but weâre starting a tour soon, so I need to keep practicing Sienna explained. âDancing is something you have to practice every day Caught In His Embrace A Second Chance Romance ï¤Chapter 138 The Double or more Life of the Fake Heiress (Mirabella)

âSure, Miranda replied.
Just then, Josiah strode in, keys in hand.
