“ Yes , ” William confirmed without hesitation .
Over the years , he had seen Sienna’s resilience and struggles , and he understood how much this
moment meant to her
William said , “ Joyce’s turn on the surgery list has finally come up ! ”
Sienna froze in place , her breath hitching .
Her eyes reddened , and a wave of warmth surged through her chest .
She thought , It’s happening ….
finally happening
She fought to keep her emotions in check , whispering , “ Thank you , Mr.
Thompson .”
She was so overwhelmed with excitement that she didn’t know what else to say
William chuckled .
“ No need to thank me .
I didn’t do much .
You’re the one who’s been holding on all this time .
After the surgery , Joyce won’t have to suffer anymore .
“ Yes … ” Sienna’s voice trembled , her heart overwhelmed with joy and relief .
But then , William’s tone turned serious as he added .
“ You’ll need to gather the surgery fees as soon as possible .
At the earliest , the operation will happen in two months .
At the latest , six .”
Sienna’s heart sank .
She thought .
The money … Of course .
I knew this wa

“ About 160 thousand dollars , William replied
Sienna wasn’t shocked , but anxiety still gripped her.

Despite her relentless saving , she was still far from having enough
William added gently , I know your situation , Joyce’s mom .

As a doctor , there was only so much he could do ,
“ I understand , ” Sienna said softly , though the enormous weight of his words pressed heavily on her chest .
After hanging up , Sienna sat quietly , her emotions oscillating between joy and worry .
‘ My child finally has a chance , she thought .
But how can I possibly gather such a huge amount in so lule time !!
Between her rehearsals and filming , Sienna made time to visit Mirands at the nursing home .

“ Come , sit ” Miranda said with a welcoming gesture , taking Sienna’s hand with a smile .
“ My health has improved a lot ! Soon , Ell be able to go home .
You’ve worried too much about me ”
“ It’s nothing .
” Sienna began , but Miranda cut her off .
She said , “ Nothing ! Look at yourself ! You’ve lost so much weight .
How long have you been back in Jeiacrity ! You’ve already shrunk to half your size .
” Josiah , who had been sitting silently , suddenly paused .
His thoughts wandered to her cramped , rundown apartment on 12th Avenue .
He wondered , Why does she insist on living like this when she could have so much more ?
He sneered inwardly .
‘ Lost weight he thought bitterly Serves her right .
She brought this on herself .
“ What are you laughing at Miranda’s sharp ears caught his subtle scoff .
Josiah straightened up awkwardly .
“ Nothing .”

Miranda pointed a finger at him and said , “ When you leave , make sure to take some of these gifts and bring them to Sienna .
”
The room was overflowing with items visitors had brought for Miranda during her recovery .
