Chapter 114
When Howard heard this, he looked both surprised and a little anxious
He furrowed his brows, glaring at Cedric. His throat rumbled as he wanted to say something, making Cedric feel a little awkward.
“Alright,” Yvette said, holding him back and patting his hand. “Don’t worry, Cedric got Miranda’s approval, so everything’s
fine
She turned to Cedric and smiled. “Howard’s just being a big brother. He thinks of Sienna like a sister, and now that she’s got a boyfriend, of course he’s concerned. He doesn’t mean anything by it.”
“Yeah” Cedric nodded, smiling. “I understand.”
He then looked at Howard “Don’t worry. Howard, I’m serious about Sienna. Ill take good care of her.”
Howard fell silent, but his brows stayed furrowed, not entirely relaxed.
After leaving the hospital room, Yvette walked them to the door I still need to take care of Howard, so I won’t be able to see ‘you off. Thanks for coming to visit hun”
“No problem” Cedric asked. “Go ahead and take care of him. Sienna and I will head out now.”
“Alright” Yvette nodded.
Once the door closed, Sienna didn’t say a word.
“Sienna“” Cedric waved his hand in front of her face. “What are you thinking about? You look like you’re in a daze.”
“No, nothing. Sienna snapped out of her thoughts, shaking her head.
She couldn’t help but feel that something was off with Yvette and Howard. It seemed like there was something between them
But what? Never mind, though. Howard is awake, so whatever it is, I trust he’d take care of it. As for the truth about what happened all those years ago, we would only find out once Howard is better, she wondered.
“We should go,” she said.
“Okay” Cedric nodded.
Cedric drove Sienna back to 12th Avenue. They got stuck in some traffic when passing through the commercial street.
The car stopped at an intersection, and Sienna leaned against the window, sniffing the air. “That smells so good
Cedric, noticing her expression, smiled. “What do you smell?”
The windows were closed, so there was no way the smell should be getting inside.
“Right there. Sienna pointed to a spot just up the road. “There’s a shop selling handmade chocolate. That scent has been -stuck in my head.”
“Let me take a look, Cedric leaned his head out the window, then smiled. “Hold on.”
The light turned green, and he started to drive. But instead of ging straight, he slowly pulled over by the handmade chocolate shop.

“What are you doing? sien asked, watching him unbuckle his seatbelt.
Cedric raised an eyebrow. “Buying some handmade chocolate.
With that, he got out of the car.
“Hey,” Sienna hesitated for a moment before getting out and following him.
There was a line in front of the shop, and Cedric stond at the back, waving to Sienna as she approached.
“Just wait, we’ll have some in a minute.” He smiled.
“Hey…” Sienna couldn’t help but smile. She’d just mentioned it, aber all.

In the crowd, Cedric’s tall figure stood out, and Sienna started counting on her fingers. “There are six people in front of him, now five…
She couldn’t help but think about how Joyce loved chocolate too. But since it was hard for her to digest, Sienna only allowed her to have two pieces at a time.
She missed Joyce so much. Even though they video–called every couple of days, Sienna couldn’t wait for her surgery to be over so they could finally reunite.
Lost in her thoughts, she realized they had reached Cedric’s turn
“I’ll have a milk chocolate one,” he said.
