Chapter 53

Chapter 53 In the private room , Sienna sat across from the man .

The man was staring at her intently , as if he feared she might vanish if he so much as blinked .

“ Sienna ,” the ma began softly , “ this is the third time we’ve met .

That day at Bacchus Bridge , during your Fiona’s memorial ... You were there , weren’t you ! You were wearing a mask .

”

“ I’m not here to talk about the past , Sienna interrupted , her voice cold .

“ We’ve already met Now , where’s the money ! Did you bring it ? ” she asked , getting straight to the point He nodded, “ I brought it .

You’ll get it soon .

But Sienna .

it’s been so long .

Four years ago , you left without a word .

How have you been ? How are things with Mr.

Flynn ? ”

“ Enough , ” Sienna said sharply , cunting him off again .

Her tone remained calm , but there was a hint of irritation in her eyes, “ Do you really think these questions are yours to ok ? ” she said icily .

The man looked conflicted , his expression a mix of guilt and hesitation .

“ Why can’t I ask ? Sienna , I care about you .

Did Mr.

Flynn – did he treat you badly ? Is that why you suddenly need so much money ? ”

“ Care ! Sienna couldn’t hold back and laughed mockingly .

Her eyes were full of sarcasm .

“ Caring now , isn’t it a bit late ? ”

She thought .

“ Where was he when I needed him the most ? Where was his concern then: The cheapest thing in the world is affection that’s past its due date !

The man hesitated , his face showing both conflict and pain .

“ Yes , it’s my fault .

But Sienna , can you at least tell me what happened that you suddenly need so much money “ Is Mr.

Flynn treating you badly ? ”

protective of her , but the fact that she had been sent abroad un the fa He remembered seeing them together not long ago .

He thought , Josiah had seemed protecti for four years spoke volumes “ Sienna , please tell me ... the man’s voice was soft , almost pleading .

“ Enough ! Sienna thought , closing her eyes briefly to suppress her frustration .

If I don’t say anything , does that mean you won’t money ? ” she asked bluntly .

n’t give me me the “ No , I didn’t mean “ The man began , but his words were interrupted by a loud knock .

Suddenly , there was a loud knock at the door .

Bang ! Bang ! Bang ! The force was aggressive , as if the person outside wouldn’t hesitate to break in if the door wasn’t opened immediately .

“ Open the doorf a gruff voice demanded .

“ Hurry up and open the door ! ” another voice harked .

“ Police ! Open the door immediately ! Do you hear me ? ” the final shout came with unmistakable authority .

Sienna froze .

“ What’s going on Why are the police here ? She cast a quick glance at the man across from her .

His face turned pale as panic set in “ Damn if ” The man muttered under his breath as he shot to his feet .

Everyone knew that when the police showed up , even minor issues could morph into major ones .

Even if they’d done nothing wrong , they’d be dragged to the police station for questioning The man thought , “ But the visit today couldn’t be known – not to anyone , especially not to my family Sienna caught his reaction .

She thought , This man , is always clanning to love and care for me , but the moment trouble comes , his first thought is always himself .

“ Sienna ... he started to speak , his tone uncertain , What are you afraid of ? Sienna interrupted , raising her eyebrow coldly , her gaze piercing .

“ We haven’t done anything wrong ,” she said sharply .

“ We can open the door and explain what our relationship is ”

The man hesitated , his reluctance written all over his face .

“ Sienna , 1 ...

“ Relax , I’m just teasing .

Why are you so nervous ? Then , with a sudden shift in tone , she turned her back on him .

“ Go .

Leave through the balcony .

”

“ Sienna ... the man’s voice faltered “ Go now ! ” she snapped , her patience wearing thin .

“ If you don’t leave , I open the door ! And if they take you to the station , you won’t be able to hide it from your wife .

At her words , the man flinched .

Without another word , he spun around and made a beeline for the balcony .

Sienna stood still , her back to him .

She thought , What a joke .

I don’t need this man anymore .

A bitter smile flickered across her face .

Taking a deep breath , she walked to the door and lung it open , “ Sienna ! ” The moment she opened the door , she came face – to – face with an enraged Josiah , His fury was palpable , radiating off him like heat from a flame .

The intensity of his anger stunned her .

For a split second .

Sienna thought , He looks like a husband catching his wife red – handed in an affair .

Ridiculous .

“ Look what you’ve done ! ” Josiah sneered , raising his hand .

At his signal , the officers behind him surged into the room .

They searched thoroughly but came up empty – handed .

One of them said , “ No one ! ”

Another one asked , “ Just her ? ”

Others were confused , “ How is that possible ? ”

Josiah’s disbelief was evident .

Yeins bulged on his forehead as his eyes scanned the room like a hawk Finally , after searching personally , he had no choice but to accept the truth :

there was no one else there , “ Where is he ? ” he demanded , turning to Sienna .

The man you were meeting – where is he ? ”

“ What man ” Sienna let out a soft laugh , her voice tinged with sarcasm .

asm .

“ Mr.

Flynn , please don’t make baseless accusations ”

“ Sienna Josiah snapped , suddenly grabbing her waist with a force that stunned her .

“ Ah ! ” Sienna gasped as he pushed her backward onto the couch .

His tall frame loomed over her , his grip unrelenting “ Speak .

Where is he ? Who did you come here to see ? ” Josialï’s eyes bore into hers , his tone dangerously low , “L ” Sienna’s face turned pale .

Her long lashes trembled as she whispered , “ I don’t know what you’re talking about .

Josiah’s fury surged at her defiance , His voice , sharp and biting , cut through the air : “ Fine ! Let me ask you directly – did you sleep with another Sienna froze , utterly shocked .

“ Did I hear that right ? she thought Her voice rose before she could stop herself .

“ What does that have to do with you ?”

Josiah’s patience snapped .

Tm the one asking questions here he roared .

“ Answer me — yes or no ? ”

His booming voice filled the room , his tone so menacing that it felt as if her answer might determine herfate .

This is insane , Sienna thought .

“ Absolutely absurd “

But she wasn’t one to back down .

Straightening her spine , she met his gaze head – on and enunciated clearly , “ It is none of your business ” Josiah was momentarily stunned by her boldness .

Then , his lips curled into a bitter smile .

“ Fine ,” he said , stepping back , “ Fine .

His tall figure cast a long shadow over her as he stood .

For a brief moment , Sienna felt a sense of relief But then-

“ Hey , you ! ” One of the officers approached her .

“ You’re coming with us to the station ! ”

“ What ? ” Sienna’s eyes widened in disbelief .

“ Why ? ”

Come with us to clear things up .

”

“ Illegal activities ? ” Sienna’s voice cracked as the accusation sank in .

What are they talking about ! Do they think I’m selling something here !

“ No ! ” she exclaimed , shaking her bead in panic .

I didn’t do anything !

“ Whether you did or not isn’t for you to decide , the officer said coldly .

“ Take her .

”

“ No wait Sienna tried to protest , but it was no use .

“ Get a female officer to escort her the officer barked .

On it came the reply Outside the room , the club manager looked distraught .

“ Officers , there must be some kind of misunderstanding ! Our establishment doesn’t engage in illegal activities , and this woman isn’t even one of our members ”

“ Her behavior has nothing to do with us the manager added , clearly exasperated .

Who the hell reported us and caused this mess ? he wondered .

Who else could it be ? Of course , it was Josiah If they wouldn’t let him investigate , he’d simply use the police to do it instead .

Sienna turned her gaze toward Josiah , her eyes sharp with accusation .

It was h was him .

But why ? Why would he target me ? ”

She thought .

If he thinks this will break me , he’s wrong .

I’ve done nothing wrong .

Let them take me .

I’ve survived worse “ Wait ! ” Josiah suddenly spoke , his commanding voice cutting through the air .

He strode forward , has long legs carrying him swiftly to stand before Sienna Leaning down , he whispered into her ear , his voice low and magnetic “As long as you tell the truth , I promise they won’t take you away ”
