0 L Chapter 8 Sienna hurried back to Silver Beach but didnt see Josiali .
So , she figured shed head to the bathroom first .
But just as she opened the door , there he was shirtless .
Sienna Shaw ! Josiahs face darkened as he pulled on his shirt , voice low and tense .
Sorry ! Sienna quickly shut the door , her heart pounding .
How was I supposed to know he was the bathroom on the first floor anyway ? in there ? And whys he using Inside the room , Josiahs face was thunderous , and he quickly locked over his shoulder .
She didnt see anything , did she ? Before long , Josiah emerged , now fully dressed .
He pointed at a large box on the coffee table and said , Co change into this .
Sienna figured there had to be a dress inside .
The Flynn family was hosting this event for her , and they werent the type to do things by halves .
Alright , she nodded , picking up the box A few moments later , Sienna stepped out wearing an almond colored off shoulder evening dress that flowed down to the floor .
She had done a quick base makeup routine , lightly defined her eyebrows , and added some lipstick for the occasion .
Luckily , even though she was broke , for her job , she had some basic makeup supplies .
Even with just a few light touches , her naturally striking features really shone through .
Josiah Jooked at her , narrowing his eyes instinctively .
She was tall with tender skin , her long hair pulled back to reveal her delicate swan like neck .
She was breathtaking beyond words .
For a moment , Josiah was taken aback .
She had been cute , but now , in her early twenties , she had blossomed .
She had swapped her girlish innocence for the charm of a sophisticated woman .
Josiah studied her and asked , Did you see anything just now ? See what ? Sienna replied , genuinely confused what was there to see ? It looked like she really didnt notice his back .
Josiah turned and started walking .
Keep up .
The welcome party was held at South Jeiacrity Nursing Home .
Since Miranda wasnt well enough to travel , so having the gathering there was the most convenient option .
Luckily , she had a private room with a little patch of grass outside , which made it just right for a cozy family reunion .
The driver headed straight for the nursing home with Josiah and Sienna in the back .
Sienna sat in silence , lost in her thoughts as she looked out the window .
Josiah was next to her , feeling a bit restless with the heavy silence .
He remembered how Sienna had been around him , chattering non stop .
She always had so much to say , and it used to drive him nuts .
Why so quiet all of a sudden ? Is this some new tactic ? Anyway , shes already signed the divorce agreement , and whatever games she might play , the divorce is a done deal , he mused to himself .
When they arrived , Josiah led Sienna to see Miranda first .
Unfortunately , the doctor was here to do Mirandas routine therapy session .
Miranda took Siennas hand .
The therapy will take about half an hour .
Why dont you catch up with everyone ? Its been years .
Alright , Sienna replied with a warm smile .
1/3 22:19 Sat , Jan 4 Chapter 8 Still , Miranda felt uneasy .
She glanced at Josials and told him , Say with Sienna and keep an eye on her .
Grandma , Josiah frowned , not pleased with the idea .
Whats going on ? Mirandas face grew serious .
I listened to you back then , so why cant you do the same for me ? Four years ago , when Sienna was sent away , Miranda had heeded Josiahs wish not to keep Sienna around .
Josiah didnt have a comeback .
As much as he wished things were different , he could only nod and say , Alright .
Great Miranda sighed with relief , giving Sienna a reassuring pat on the hand .
Go ahead and follow Josiah .
If you have any questions , just ask him ? Okay , Sienna nodded , just as she had been doing since she arrived .
Sienna trailed closely behind Josiah as they left the room and walked through the living room into the courtyard .
She noticed many eyes on them and the whispers floating in the air Hey , whos that with Mr.
Flynn ? Is that Yvette ? Doesnt look like her .
