Talk outside ? No.

She knew how ruthless he could be : Cedric had never stood a chance against him .

Josiah , lets go back .

We can talk about this at home , okay ? she pleaded , unaware that her words were only agitating Josiah , Josiah narrowed his eyes , looking at her tear stained face .

He cupped her cheek , his fingertips tracing the tears spilling from the corners of her eyes .

Who are you crying for ! he chuckled .

Siennas heart skipped a beat as she saw the madness in his eyes .

Without a second thought , she clung to his arm and shouted , Cedric , run ! Sanna Shaw .

Josiah pronounced her name sharply , his expression hardening .

How dare you stand up for him in front of me ? With a swift motion , he flung Sienna away .

Ow ..

Sienna gasped .

In reality , he hadnt used much force and didnt mean to hurt her .

He just wanted her to stop interfering But the push sent Sienna stumbling back .

She barely managed to reach out for the table behind her , but her elbow hit the sharp edge , sending a jolt of pain through her .

Ah ..

That cry pulled both men back to reality .

Josiah and Cedric froze , their attention snapping to Sienna .

Sienna clutched her arm in pain , bending over and struggling to stand straight .

Sienna Josiahs face froze .

He immediately let go of Cedric , strode over to Sienna , and gently grasped her arm to check for injuries .

It hurts , Sienna winced at his touch .

Josiahs face went pale .

He didnt dare to touch her again .

Instead , he swept her up in his arms .

We need to get to the hospital .

Not so fast , Cedric stepped forward and blocked his way .

You can u can go if you : want , but Sienna stays here .

He had just learned the truth today it was because of him that he had lost Sienna .

Just let her god Josiah caught the words set her up , and his face darkened .

What do you mean by that ? her , but now youre not even treating her What ? Are you too proud to admit it , Josiah ? Cedric ancered .

I know all about what happened in Fliraty .

Sienna wasnt involved ; this was all you , You set her up .

1/2 Chapter 273 Josiah hadnt thought about Fliraty in a while .

He didnt expect Cedric to know about that .

Oh … Josiah suddenly understood .

He looked down at the woman in his arms , No wonder they were hugging each other and crying like that .

They must have been crying over their unforgettable past .

How touching , he mocked inwardly .

I did it , so what ? Josiah asked indifferently , his chin held high and his eyes slightly lowered .

Are you going to take her back ? Cedrics heart raced .

Just give her back to me .

Tsk Josiah raised an eyebrow and chuckled softly .

Do you really think you can ? Maybe deal with your own family first .

Cedric ined to argue , Cedric , Sienna suddenly interrupted him .

She looked at Cedric and shook her head slightly , signaling him not to continue .

Then , she looked at Josiah .

You misunderstood .

Im fine with Josiah .

He didnt treat me badly ….

Then , she tugged at Josiahs sleeve .

Lets go .

Sienna , called Cedric Humph, Josiah snorted contemptuously , his eyes flashing coldly .

Did you hear that ! Get out of the way .

He leaned down , looking at Sienna intimately as if they were sharing a secret .

His tone softened to a whisper .

As you wish .

Lets go … Okay Sienna nodded , snuggling closer to him .

She looked away from Cedric and whispered to herself , Im sorry , Cedric .

This is for the best Cedric stood rooted to the spot , watching them walk further away .

It felt as if a piece of his heart had been ripped out .

The pain was overwhelming .

and he could do nothing about it He suddenly felt unsteady and reached out to grip the table .

Sienna , you lied to me .

Youre not happy , are you ? he wondered .

As soon as on as they s stepped outside , the tenderness vanished from Josiahs face .

What hed shown Cedric had been nothing but a facade .

To him , this was far from over .

But Sienna had hurt her arm , and he would take her to the hospital first before dealing with everything else .

Josiah didnt say a word .

He opened the car door and gently helped Sienna inside .

As the car started , Sienna spoke .

Josiah frowned , thinking .

Is she being difficult with me now ? After everything that has happened today , whos truly in the wrong Sienna , Josiah frowned , staring at her and suppressing his displeasure .

Your arm is hurt .
