Caught In His Embrace A Second Chance Romance
Chapter 73 Sienna was stunned , not sure what Miranda meant .
â Grandma , â Sienna swallowed hard and asked uncertainly , â What kind of â likeâdo you mean ? â
â Oh .
Sienna â Miranda set down her soup bowl with a smile .
âWhat other kind of likeâis there ! Of course , itâs the kind between a man and a woman .
Then she added , âI mean , did you like him the way you used to like Josiah ? â
Sienna was a bit confused , â Grandma , why do you ask ? â She thought Miranda might misunderstand something because Cedric brought her home .
She laughed and shook her head .
â Thereâs nothing between us .
We just bumped into each other on the way , and he kindly offered to give me a lift , thatâs all â
â More than that , right ? Miranda pointed out .
â At your birthday party , didnât you both chat and laugh a lot ! 1 think you two really hit it off .
â Grandma .
â Sienna was both amused and frustrated .
â What are you talking about ? Thereâs nothing going Miranda assumed Sienna was just being shy , so she toned down her expression .
â I think heâs a good guy and he seems interested in you .
Be honest with me , do you like him even a little bit ? â
â What ?â Sienna couldnât even maister a laugh this time .
Miranda didnât seem to be joking , and there was a lot of meaning in her words .
Sienna frowned slightly : â Grandma .
I donât quite understand what you mean â
Miranda sighed as she dabbed the corner of her mouth with a napkin .
Her eyes were filled with deep affection for Sienna .
â I just want to find you a good match , dear .
Cedricâs a decent guy who comes from a good family .
â But most importantly , itâs about whether you like him .
â
â Grandma ! â Sienna was shocked , her face turning pale .
She shook her head repeatedly .
â Quit joking around .
How could that even be possible ? â She had never thought about being with Cedric She didnât think of herself as a good match for him .
â Who said Iâm joking ?â Miranda frowned .
â I would never joke about your future .
Iâm seriously considering this for you ?
â Grandma ,â Sienna was at a loss for words .
She found it ridiculous for her to be with Cedric â I know â Miranda waved her hand dismissively , â Youâre just thinking youâre not good enough , right ? â
â Thatâs the truth , Sienna thought silently .
â Donât worry .â Miranda said , unconcerned , â As long as you like him , youâre more than good enough .
As an adopted member of our family , who would dare look down on you ? â
As she continued , her eyes turned red , â Itâs the Flynn family that owes you .
I just need to see you settled and happy before I can relax .â
â Grandma , â Sienna felt overwhelmed .
â I really donât need â You do .
Miranda was very stubborn , insisting , â Last time you chose someone yourself , and Josiah told me how it went .
Thatâs on me .
This time , Iâll personally select a good match for you .
â
Sienna was speechless , unsure what to say .
Whatever Miranda thought , it didnât matter .
There was absolutely nothing between her and Cedric , and there never would be .
â Iâve got my own plans for this , Miranda assured her .
â Iâm just letting you know so you wonât worry ,â Miranda stood up .
â Itâs late .
Iâm going back to my room â Til walk with you back , Sienna said , standing up and taking Mirandaâs arm .
At that moment , Josiah came over carrying a tray with a bowl of soup .
â It took you that long to get a bowl of soup ? â Miranda gave Josiah an annoyed look and released Sienna â No need for you to see me off .
Drink your soup and be good .â
â Okay , Grandma â
â Good girl â Miranda chuckled and turned to go upstairs .
Meanwhile , Josiah set down the tray without looking at Sienna .
â Drink up .â
â Okay , â Now alone with him .
Sienna felt very awkward , her mind replaying the scene of lain kissing her last night .
Flustered , she picked up the bowl 1/2 Dreame â Read Romance Stories Installed Download Chapter 73 of soup and took a big gulp .
â Ah ! â Suddenly , Sienna cried out in surprise .
âWhatâs wrong ? â Josialiâs eyes widened as he stood up quickly , crossing the room to her side in one stride .
â Mmm , â Sienna held her mouth , her face flushed red , tears welling in her eyes .
â Did you burn yourself ? â Josiah realized what had happened and gently held her cheeks .
â What are you waiting for ? Spit it out ! â
But Sienna had already swallowed it .
The hot soup burned as it went down her throat , making her chest hurt .
Her expression became more pained .
â Are you an idiot ?â Josiah said with a frown , â Why did you swallow something so hot ? â
Sienna put her hand over her mouth , unable to speak .
She didnât know it was so hot .
Besides , the soup was made with rare ingredients .
Having lived through hard times for years , she had developed a habit of not wasting anything Looking at her teary eyes , with an innocent and wronged expression , Josiahâs heart suddenly softened collapsing a lile .
â Does it hurt a lot ? â
Tearfully , Sienna nodded .
The soup must have been simmering on the stove , so it was very hot .
â Come with me ! â Josiah grabbed her hand and led her into the kitchen .
While opening the fridge , he told Sienna , â Open your mouth ! â
Sienna covered her mouth in confusion , her eyes wide open .
She didnât know why she needed to open her mouth .
â Hurry up! â Turning around to see her standing still , Josiah got anxious , reached out , and gently pinched her cheeks , easily making her open her mouth .
Before Sienna could protest , he suddenly popped a piece of ice into her mouth .
Her cheeks puffed up instantly , like a little bun .
Josiah held back a laugh , â Wait here ! â
was still s standing there , with ice in her mouth .
She was very obedient and quiet .
He let go , turned away , but quickly came back .
Sienna was â Still standing ââ Josiah took a few steps closer , pulled out a chair , and gently pushed her shoulders to make her sit down .
â Didnât you think to sit yourself ?
He spoke while unwrapping the medicine box .
Sienna glanced over , not quite understanding , and couldnât speak with her mouth full , â Itâs a burn spray , Josiah explained , guessing her thoughts as he finished with the box , pointing at her mouth .
â Iâll spray inside your mouth once it doesnât hurt as much .
â
Sienna blinked , feeling a bit surreal that Josiah was so nice to her .
â Feeling any beter ? Does it still hurt ? â He asked , pointing at the trash can nearby , âIf it doesnât hurt too much now , spit it out .

Sienna nodded in a daze , turned to the side , and spat out the ice .

â Iâll do it myself â
â You canât see where to spray .

Josiah wouldnât give it to her , leaving Sienna with no choice but to tilt her head back and open her mouth , revealing her neat teeth and her soft tongue .
Everything was so culc .
Josiahâs Adarnâs apple bobbed intensely as he held her chin with one hand and the spray with the other , soothing her gendy .
The medicineâs bitter , bear with it , okay ? â
