Caught In His Embrace A Second Chance Romance novel Chapter 369

Chapter 369 There was a few seconds of silence .

Josiahs voice , soft and low , finally broke the quiet .

Yes , I like you .

Its true .

How could I not like a girl who literally saved my life ? Josiah … Yvettes heart eased , and tears shimmered in her eyes .

Josiahs gaze darkened , and his voice grew heavier as he continued , But Yvette , you and Howard have been together for over ten years .

Not once did I feel a hint of jealousy .

I only felt happy for you two As he spoke , the light in Yvettes eyes began to dim .

Josiah took a deep breath, as though he could no longer hold back .

Do you understand what this means ! No … Yvettes heart raced , shaking her head frantically in disbelief .

Josiah stared at her , his voice growing even softer .

What I feel for you is just gratitude .

To me , this kind of feeling has nothing to do with your gender , or maybe it goes beyond gender .

He always treated her as his lifesaver .

That was why , all these y years , he had protected her without condition and just wanted her to be happy .

No ! Yvette shook her head , tears streaming down her face .

Its not true ! Its getting late .

Josiah looked away , his arm twitching slightly .

Youre tired .

You should rest .

Clearly , he didnt want to continue this conversation .

However , Yvette had already backed herself into a corner .

Josiah , dont leave ! She called out , her voice desperate , her eyes frantic .

I get it ! Its because of your grandmother , right ? Youre worried shell oppose it , arent you ? As the head of the Flynn family , Miranda could never stand for any scandals within the family .

That was why , years ago , she made Yvette choose between the two boys .

Later , she even arranged for Josiah to be with Sienna The more Yvette thought about it , the more certain she became .

She almost convinced herself .

How about we leave the Flynn family ? Would that be okay ? Im willing to leave with you , Josiah ! Yvette .

Josiahs voice was soft but full of hesitation .

Yvette said .

I know youve built your own career these past years ! Josiah tried to interrupt , but Yvette was already spiraling , her thoughts clouded by obsession .

She smiled through her tears , saying .

Even if we leave the Flynn family , with your abilities , we can live just fine.

Yes , lets leave the Flynn family ! She gripped Josiahs arm tightly as if she had already made up her mind , Well leave the Flynn family .

If we leave , we can be together .

Yvette ! Seeing that she wasnt listening , Josiah snapped in a sharp voice as he interrupted , Listen to me , okay ? Yvette froze and finally stopped .

Okay .

This has nothing to do with Grandma .

Josiah frowned as he shook his head slowly but firmly , Yvette , I dont have romantic feelings for you .

Do you understand ? Yvette trembled , her heart breaking into pieces , but she still sh I shook her head , unable to accept it .

I dont believe you ! Josiah rubbed his forehead and sighed deeply .

Dont you know what kind of person I am ! I dont give in to things I dont want , not even if my grandma pressures me .

Even after Sienna and I were married , I still kept my distance .

Even after the marriage , he still neglected Sirma .

Josiali continued , However , when I want something , no matter how unwilling she is , Ill still go after it Yvette thought , Every sentence is about Siennal She let out a biger laugh .

Then what about me ? Do I not mutter to you anymore ? No.

Josiali shook his head and said carefully , To me , youre like a sibling , just like Howard , Yvette let out a silent , bitter laugh .

Then what about Sienna is that love ? No , I dont believe you She questioned him sharply .
