Caught In His Embrace: A Second Chance Romance

Chapter 285 Howards legs were still shaky , and he had a hard time crouching down .

Rosie Ah The moment he spoke , Rosie screamed in terror .

She covered her ears , shaking as her eyes grew wide with fear .

Dont come closer ! She raised her hand to her neck .

That was when Howard noticed she was holding a piece of broken glass .

It was a shard from the glass cover of the clock she had smashed just moments before , now tightly gripped in her palm .

Daniel Rosie mistook Howard for Daniel and glared at him .

Do you want me dead ? Ill do it myself Suddenly , her eyelids fluttered , her grip relaxed , and the glass shard fell to the floor as she collapsed toward Howard .

He instinctively reached out and caught her .

He e had been the one to hit Rosie hard on the back of her neck , making her unconscious to st rage .

stop her from hurting herself in her rag Howard grabbed a quilt from the bed , wrapping Rosie tightly in it , and with a worried look , he stood up and walked out of the room .

Howard ? Hervey stood at the top of the stairs , coming down quickly when he saw him.

Let me carry her .

But Howard stepped aside , shaking his head .

No need , I can manage .

Hervey said .

But your legs … Howards legs werent strong enough for heavy lifting .

Howard insisted , Shes as light as a feather , a few steps wo Alright Since Howard was so determined .

Hervey chose not to argue .

At that moment , Daniel was still pinned against the wall , completely unaware of the chaos happening behind him .

echoing in the room .

As Howard passed by , his face was dark with a frown , and he kicked Daniel hard .

Ah ! Daniel screamed in pain , his voice e Keeping his eyes ahead , Howard carried Rosie straight out .

Hervey rushed to keep up , his worry clear .

Howard , is your leg okay ? That kick must have taken a lot of effort Its fine .

Howards face stayed serious .

The one to worry about was Daniel .

Once they were in the car , Howard didnt let go of Rosie , who lay against him .

He felt tense and couldnt move much At first , Rosie was silent .

Then , as though disturbed by a troubling dream , she suddenly began to cry .

Her voice was barely above a whisper , soft like mewling kitten , but it tore at Howards heart Howard , unsure of how to comfort her , clumsily lifted a hand and placed it on Rosies back , parting her gently once , then twice .

Somehow , Rosie quieted down , looking calmed by his touch .

Howard looked down at her , brushing the hair from her face as he softly said , Good girl .

After a short pause , he sighed .

Im sorry , it was my fault you got hurt .

Though he hadnt hurt her , her pain was a result of his actions.

Looking at her face , he faintly noticed Bobbys resemblance in her features .

Their son looked like his mon As the recording for todays show was about to start , Sienna walked out of the studio , where Josiah had been waiting for a while .

Josiah had news about Rosie .

Howard took Rosie to the hospital to treat her injuries , which werent serious , and now Rosie was back at City Pearl Howard ? Sienna gasped , both surprised and impressed .

He is such a good man Josiah didni s say anything , his expression far from happy .

Whats wrong ? Sienna asked , noticing something was off .

Josiah looked displeased .

I need to go abroad tomorrow , if all goes well , Ill be back in a week , but if not … it could take half a month He leaned down , wrapping his arms around Sienna .

Come back to Silver Beach with me tonight ? Sienna Troge , leaning against him , her emotions swirling like a storm .

A voice in her head shouted that her chance had come .

These days , she had promised herself not to fight with him , hoping for just such a moment .

Surprisingly , that moment had arrived so quickly .

What a fantastic chance .

One to two weeks was enough for her to leave Jelacrity , to run far away .

Soon , she could take Joyce and start fresh , far from Josiah 1/2 11:54 AM Chapter 283 What do you say ? Josial held her gently , swaying her slightly .

Ill ask Howard to take care of Rosie .

You trust Howard the most , dont you ? Mm .

Sienna smiled .

Okay Thats amazing ! Josiah , excited , quickly kissed her lips .

Change your clothes so we can head home ! He guided her forward toward the changing room .

Romilly made your favorite soup .

Tonight , Ill wash your hair , then we can watch your favorite shows together .

Sienna ulted her head to look at him , smiling softly .

Sounds good At that moment , everything he said felt like a blessing to her .

Tomorrow , Josiah would leave Jeiacrity for a trip abroad .

This was their last moment together It felt nice to have a peaceful evening together before parting , preparing for a proper goodbye the next day .

A clean break , never to be tangled up At City Pearl , Howard sat across from Rosie on the sofa as they locked eyes in silence .

Rosie had lost count of how many times she had tried to speak , her lips growing stiff .

Howard , thank you for your help today Mm Would you like some water ? Mm , Howard responded with only those short sounds and nothing else .

Rosie felt that Howard was so distant , and she felt utterly helpless .

Suddenly , Howards phone rang .

He stood up and stepped aside to take the call .

Hello ? Howard , its me .

Josiah briefed him on the situation .

Sienna needs to be with me tonight ; Howard , please take care of Bobbys mom Before Howard could reply , Josiah added , You need to end this quickly , shes taking up all of Siennas time , and Sienna keeps leaving me alone !! wont stand for it when I return , Sienna wont be at her service anymore ! At the end of the call , he said respectfully .

Thank you , Howard ; youre the best .

Then he hung up .

Howard thought his younger brother was growing up .

He put down the phone and turned to see Rosie on the sofa , her wide , innocent eyes staring blankly at him .

He had become the only person she could depend on .

Hervey turned to Howard .

Howard , lets go Howard stood up .

But suddenly , Rosse called out to him .

Howard glanced back at her .

Once again , he remained silent .

Strangely , even though they had never spoken before , Rosie feh his presence strongly .

Rosie opened her mouth , hesitating to to speak .

Howard … ..

Tlunk you , and take care .

After a moment of silence , Howard squinted slightly and replied , Mm .

He then turned and walked away .

Hearing his footsteps fade into the distance , Rosie felt a pang of sadness .

The home helper approached her .

Ms.

Miller , I will be here tonight .

If you need anything , just call me Alright , thank you .

When Sienna emerged from the dressing room , Josiah took her hand , joy shining in his eyes .

Lets go home .

As they entered the elevator , perhaps due to the small space or the stuffy air , Sienna suddenly covered her mouth .

Ugh … Josiah quickly asked .

Do you need to vomit ! Sienna nodded weakly .

They were in the elevator with no trash bin in sight .

It wouldnt be right to do it here , especially with others present Into my hand ! Josiah urgently extended his hand , ready to catch Sienna shook her head , firmly refusing , Josiah decided to take off his outer coat .

Tll use my clothes to catch … However , before he could take it off , Sienna vorated , and being so close , it all landed on Josiah .

it all land Sienna was instantly taken aback ; it was not intentional .

The air quickly filled with the unpleasant smell of food and stomach acid , taking the other people in the elevator frown in disgust .

Already feeling unwell , Sienna turned pale with shame .

Its alright Josiah embraced Sienna , wrapping her in his coat to cover some of the odor .

He said to the others , I sincerely apologize , everyone .

My wife is pregnant ; she didnt mean to , Im truly sorry .

Please forgive us .

Upon hearing this , the others softened , showing understanding .

Oh , shes pregnant ! We can totally understand that .

Pregnancy is tough Thank you for understanding Josiah smiled in gratitude , looking down at Sienna in his arms .

Feeling any better ? Do you still feel like vomiting ! Sienna shook her head .

She felt a little better now .

When the elevator arrived , the others exited first , and Josials carried Sienna out last , only for Sieu to immediately push him away .

Looking at the mess on his shirt , she frowned .

Could you go to the restroom to take care of thu ? Lets go to the car instead Josiah chuckled .

If I go to the restroom , Id have to come out in my birthday suit .

Lets move By the car , Josiah tossed his coat to Sienna , then removed his soiled sweater and shirt , standing bare chested .

This was right outside the television station , just after finishing a recording , and many eyes turned in their direction .

Seeing a strong , handsome man , they murmured and exchanged glances .

Which star in their Hes so handsome ! With a height like that , he must be a modelis Sienna hastily draped the coat back over him .

Not a soul is allowed to see me ? Josiah playfully pinched her nose .

Ah , quite possessive !
