Miranda, sinable in pace herself, hail too much to drink and became tipy. Concensed by her condition and knowing she wasn’t well, Josiah quickly called the caregiver to help her back to her rooli.

Turning around, he saw Sienna holding a wine glass, pouring herself a drink. It seemed that she was also drunk.

“Stop afrinking” Josiah walked over and took the glass from her hand. “You’re drunk. Grandinu said you could sleep here tonight.”

Her room was always kept clean and ready, so there was no need to tidy up

Sienna agreed, “Oh, okay,”

He thought she would refuse, but to his surprise, Sienna nodded. She braced herself on the table and stood up shakily.

Josialy quickly helped her up, leasing. “Ms. Shaw, can you still find your way to your roum?”

soon as they entered the room, Sienna let go of him and went straight into the bathroom.

“Sarnna” Josiali was worried about her and followed her to the door, in case she was going to throw up. He didn’t dare leave immediately and waited at the door

After a while, Sienna still hadn’t come out, Josiah was starting to get anxious. He knocked on the door. “Sienna, are you okay?”

He got no response. It was silent inside. Josiah couldn’t wait any longer. He patted the door. “Sienna, if you don’t answer, I’m coming in”

After two seconds of silence, Josiah gritted his teeth and pushed the door open. He found Sienna siting on the floor, her back against the bathtub.

Josiah rushed over to her and knelt down in front of her. “Sienna, what’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?”

Sienna looked up and suddenly smiled at him

She was clearly grinning, but Josiah couldn’t sense any joy in it. He frowned, “Where does it hurt?”

“Te fine” Sienna kept smiling and shook her head. I’m fine”

Jou didn’t believe her, thinking. Is that so! Her expression is identical to the day she broke up with Cedric. She is still hung up on him, right?

Chapter 161

He couldn’t tell if his ears were playing tricks on him. He was sober. Sienna, on the other hand, was tipsy. That meant he must have heard right.

“You didn’t hear me?” Sienna frowned childishly. “Forget it then…”

Josiah laughed, exasperated, catching her hand. “No way. Sienna, you can’t take back words. I heard you”

In the next second, he cupped the back of her head with one hand, pulling her into his arms. Almost through gritted teeth, he said with a hint of pain in his voice, “You said that we would be together.”

Sienna stood motionless, enveloped in his embrace. She had said it, and he had heard it. She could no longer regret it. Though she knew it was a path leading nowhere, turning back felt impossible.

She was even willing to give up her life for Joyce. So bring with Josiah didn’t seem so unbearable anymore.

They were just getting what they needed from each other. It was a fair deal

Sienna slowly raised her hand and gently rugged at his arm. “Okay, fine,”

With her confirmation, a surge of emotions washed over Josiah. He lowered his head, holding her close with one arm while the other gently lifted her chin.

His eyes sparkled. “Then can I kiss you now? He didn’t want anything but a kiss.

Sienna nodded, but before Jewish could lower his head, her eyelids fluttered closed, and she slumped against him.

“Sienna” Josiah froze, gazing down at the woman sleeping peacefully in his arms. Her eyes were closed, her breathing steady. She was asleep.

Josiah shook his head helplessly. Sienna fell asleep unexpectedly. It wasn’t her fault. Miranda should have known better than to let her drink Given her low tolerance, it was surprising she stayed awake this long

Josiah gently lined her into his arms, carried her out of the bathroom, and laid her down on the bed. He snoothed her hair and sucked her

He sat by the bed for a long while before reluctantly getting up to leave. I’ll let you go tonight. We have plenty of time ahead of us

The lights were off and the door was closed. In the darkness, Sienna lay in bed, her eyes suddenly snapping open. She stared blankly at the ceiling. tears silently sliding down.

Josiah woke up early in the morning. In fact, he hadn’t slept well all night. He needed to confirm that what happened last night was real

He worried that Sienna might wake up with no memory of the previous night, especially since she had been drinking

Josiah stood at Sienna’s door and knocked gently. “Sienna, are you awake? Can I come in?”

To his surprise, Sienna was already up. She opened the door for him. “What’s up” she asked.

Josiah faltered, taking her hand in his “Sienna, you’re awake. Are you feeling alright? Any dizziness?” He should have given her some hangover relief last night, but she fell asleep the moment she lay down.

“Yeah.” Sienna nodded. “A little dizzy and lightheaded”

Josh frowned, “If you can’t hold your liquor, don’t drink so much. Even if you keep Grandma company, a couple of sips is all it takes to be polite.” “What are you talking about so early in the morning” Miranda’s voice suddenly rang out

Miranda was old and kept early hours, but she didn’t expect them to be up even earlier than her. However… she looked at their clasped hands in dubbel “Your movi
