Caught In His Embrace A Second Chance Romance

Chapter 96 “ What are you doing ? ” Sienna asked , her back turned to him .

She had no idea what stage he was at .

“ Did you take it off yet ! ”

Josiah snapped back to reality , narrowing his eyes slightly to mask the cold glint in them .

Sienna meant well , after all .

Besides , her back was to him , so she shouldn’t see his scars .

He raised his arm and peeled off his damp shirt .

“ Yeah , I did .”

“ Here ” Still facing away from him , Sienna tossed a man’s shirt over her shoulder .

“ Put this on for now “ What’s this ? ” Josiah instinctively bristled .

Men were naturally sensitive about such things .

Without even unfolding it , he could tell it was a man’s shirt .

“ How does she have a men’s shirt he thought , “ It’s a men’s shirt , Sienna replied casually as if it was nothing .

It should fit you .”

She had deliberately bought an oversized one Without waiting for a response , she picked up his wet shirt .

“ I don’t have a dryer here , so I day .

Is that okay “ Whatever .

Josiah wasn’t in the mood to care about that right now .

“ Alright , hold on .

Sienna turned and headed to the balcony .

–

Wait a second .

” Josiah , still shirtless , followed her .

rinse it and hang it up .

I’ll get it back to your another The washing machine was on the balcony .

Sienna tossed his shirt in and began gathering the clothes she had washed earlier in the morning As soon as Josiah stepped onto the balcony , his face darkened completely .

“ Sienna ! ”

His sudden growl caught her off guard .

She turned to see his face filled with anger and confusion .

What’s his problem now ? she wondered , baffled .

“ Why doesn’t he wear the shirt ! Is he planning to stay shirtless like this forever ? she thought .

Standing tall , Josiah reached up with ease and yanked something off the drying rack .

Holding it out to her , he said , “ What is this ? ”

“ That ” Sienna froze for a moment , then became a little embarrassed .

“ You’re a man .

Don’t you recognize ii ? ”

“ Huh ? ” He recognized it all too well .

And that was precisely why he was so furious .

There , hanging on her balcony , were men’s items , shirts , underwear ..

“ Whose are these ? ” Josiah’s voice was cold and sharp as his gaze locked onto her , radiating an icy chill “ What man’s clothes are these ? ”

He shook the shirt in frustration before crumpling it into a ball and tossing it to the floor .

“ Some random guy’s clothes , and you expect me to wear them ! ”

“ Hey ! ” Sienna snapped , bending down to pick up the shirt .

Seeing this , Josiah became even angrier .

“ Sienna , don’t pick it upr “I will ! ” Sienna glared at him , seething : “ I bought this with my own money .

I washed it clean .

What’s the big deal ? Is it too cheap to be worthy of you , Josiah ? ”

She had already picked up the shirt and was parting off the dust , “ You bought it ?” Josiah’s thoughts were on an entirely different track .

He suddenly grabbed her wrist .

“ What kind of jerk makes you spend your money on him ! ” he roared .

Their commotion must have been loud because the neighbors started complaining .

“ What’s with the late – night fighting , you lovebirds ? ” one voice 1/3 D Dreame – Read Romance Stories Installed Download 3:35 PM Chapter 96 “ Yeah , some of us are trying to sleep here ! ” another chimed in .

Sienna hurried to apologize .

“ I’m so sorry , everyone ! Won’t happen again .” She turned to head inside .

“ Sienna ... ” Josiah began , will fuming “ Shut up ,” she snapped , cutting him off.

“ Do you want my neighbors to call the cops on us? She lowered her voice and continued , her patience clearly wearing thin .

“ What man !

“ There is no man .

I’m a single woman living alone .

Don’t you think I need some son of safety precautions ? ”

Hanging men’s clothes on the balcony was a common trick , something many single women did to deter thieves and burglars scouting for easy targets .

It wasn’t anything new , and it wasn’t a big deal .

Lots of women used the same tactic .

Josiah froze in place , blinking rapidly as a hint of sheepish clarity dawned on his face , “ Is that what this is about ? he thought .

It hit him all at once .

He had misunderstood her .

What is wrong with me ? I should’ve figured it out if I’d taken a second to think .

Instead , I just lashed out at Sienna without reason , he wondered “ Sienna .

” Josiah started , his tone softer as he tried to explai But Sienna wasn’t in “ t interested .

Without looking at him , she turned and walked away .

“ Sienna .” Josiah quickly caught the men’s shirt she’d dropped , suddenly finding it far more agreeable than before .

He slipped it on smoothly , surprised by how perfectly it Sienna didn’t glance back , cutting him off with a firm .

“ It’s late .

I need to rest ”

“ Okay .

” Josiah nodded , but it was as if he hadn’t heard her at all .

Butoning up the shirt , he moved closer to her , his voice uncharacteristically mild .

“ Sienna , it fits perfectly .

Just my size .

What a coincidence ”

She didn’t respond .

“ Are you leaving or or not ?

One look at her face told him she was genuinely upset “ Alright , that’s enough for tonight .

There’ll be another chance , he thought .

He gave a small nod .

Til go ”

Sienna stood up to show him out .

At the door , Josiah lingered , reluctant to leave .

“ Sienna , ” he murmured softly , almost wistfully .

“ I’ll treat you better from now on .

For a moment , Sienna was speechless .

She couldn’t deny that his attitude toward her had been drastically different recently .

But so what ? It didn’t matter anymore .

She wasn’t the type to fall for someone just because they treated her well now .

If If that would’ve been plenty of others before him .

Were the case , there She shook her head .

“I appreciate your help tonight , but like I’ve said before ...

“ Sienna .

” His expression was unusually solemn , with a hint of self – mockery in his smile .

“ I know I’ve treated you badly in the past .

“ Honestly , I haven’t treated myself much better .

”

The truth was that Josiah had never really lived for himself .

His entire existence had been for the Flynn family , for Howard .

To him , everything related to the Flynn family came before his own desires .

But he couldn’t explain that to Sienna , so he simply smiled faintly .

“ Trust me .

I’ll prove it to you .

Sienna opened her mouth to reply , but Josiah cut her off .

“ It’s late .

Go inside .

Goodnight ”

He paused at the doorway , remembering something .

“ By the way , what’s the scent of your shampoo ! ”

The question caught her off guard .

She hadn’t expected him to ask something so random .

“ Lily fragrance , ” she said simply “ I see .

A unile tugged at the corners of his lips .

“ Alright , close the door .

Goodnight .

Tim leaving now.

SEND GIFT 3:35 PM Chapter 96 Josiah turned and disappeared into the dimly lit hallway , Sienna watched the door for a moment before shutting it quietly .

She found herself mulling over his words .

What did he mean when he said he hadn’t treated himself well she wondered .

Although Sienna’s grandmother and Miranda had known each other for years .

Sienna had only visited the Flynn family occasionally and hadn’t been close to Josiah Not until she was adopted at fifteen .

Her memories of him were vivid , Josiah always trailed after Howard , following his every word .

He would do whatever Howard ordered .

If Howard wanted the stars , Josiah would move heaven and earth to fetch them , probably grabbing the moon while he was at it .

Back then , Miranda took great pride in how close her two grandsons were , “ So what’s so unusual about that ? Sienna couldn’t make sense of it .

Then another thought popped into her mind .

What did Josiah mean earlier at TeeMall when he mentioned the mantis ? ”

She grabbed her phone and immediately searched for information on the mantises Chapter 1750
