Chapter 156

Sienna’s body hadn’t fully recovered, and she couldn’t fight against it, so she simply closed her eyes and ignored him.

Was this cold resistance! Josiah let out a self–deprecating laugh.

hate me?”

Of course, Sienna wouldn’t answer, nor dut he need her to

You know better than anyone else that today’s mess stents from Xenia l’in just the one who picked up the pieces! If it weren’t for me, you and Cedric would have split up anyway, and you would only be worse off than you are now” said Josiali.

With her eyes still shot, Sienna’s eyelashes fluttered, and she clenched her hands, remaining silent.

Josial sighed helplessly. Just get some rest and try not to overthink things”

Looking at Sienna’s stubbor face, he thought to himself, forget it… Why bother with a woman who just had her heart broken!

When Sienna wake up, she was alone in the room. When had Josiah left? She wasn’t sure, the anesthesia had a calming effect, and she had fallen asleep afterward

She moved her hands and feet, she finally had some strength. Stresching her arms, she sat up and saw her clothes by the bedside

Josiah hadn’t tried anything while she was out. She didn’t see him as a gentleman; it was more that he found her unworthy of his interest. She knew that well. Even when they were married, he didn’t care to touch her.

Getting up and dressing quickly, her phone rang. It was Brenda calling. “Hey, Ms. Scoll

In this incident. Brenda had suffered quite a bit. On

n the phone. Brenda asked her to come to the hospital.

“Sure, Ms. Scott” After hanging up. Sienna rushed to the hospital

In truth, she needed to go anyway. Many of her colleagues had been injured in this event, and she wanted to see if there was anything she could do to help.

“Ms. Scott” Sienna met Brenda, who was in a single room.

“Sienna, sit,” In the room besides her, there were a number of people from the company, including dancers and department heads.

Brenda motioned for everyone to sit down. “Now that everyone’s here, let’s have a brief meeting–short and to the point

The discussion centered around the incident. With so many injuries, including two lead dancers with serious conditions, the tour was likely going to be put on hold.

Brenda sighed. “It’s unfortunate, but accidents happen, you can’t control everything”

What she meant was they planned to get preliminary treatment in the hospital and then charter a flight back to Jelacrity. After returning, they would aho need to reschedule performances.

They discussed various matters and detailed arrangements going forward.

“Everyone, make sure to handle your responsibilities well. In Fliraty, communicate about anything that comes up.”

“Yes, Mi Scort“:

“Understood. Mr.

Sienna held her phone and silently jotted down her tasks in her notes. With the lead dancer injured, she had to take on the lead roles in two additional performances besides “Serene Joys”

On top of that, there were various other chores around the group, making her schedule quite hectic.

As Sienna stepped out of the hospital room, she let out a long sigh of relief, ready to check on Rosse. Just then, her phone buzzed. It was a call from William. She figured he was calling to confirm Joyce a surgery date.

She perked up, “Hey? De Thompson?”

“Sienna. Can you come i

I’m already here!” Sienna laughed, “Til head over right now! Just hang tight!”

After hanging up. Sienna hurried towards Joyce’s ward. Before she even reached the room, she spotted William from a distance. “Dr. Thompson?

But something was off with William’s expression. Sienna slowed down, her smile fading a bit. “Sorry, I was a bit loud! The ward needs to be quiet.”

“It’s fine Willum frowned and gestured to his office. “Let’s talk inside.”

“Sure.” At that moment, Sienna had no clue about the disappointment awaiting her.

William “After hearing his words, Sienna’s face turned pale. She forced a smile, “You’re kidding, right?”

William shook his head. “Since J

Joyce was admitted six months ago, just like you. I’ve been hoping for her recovery

Immediately. Sienna felt a lump in her throat, her eyes welling up. Her voice trembled. “William, is there really nothing we can do?”

William sighed, his gue sympathetic. The donor suddenly backed out It’s out of our control”

He felt guilty. “It’s my fault. I should have warned you this could happen”

Just what she needed–getting her hopes up for nothing!

“William” Sieniu closed her eyes, then suddenly asked, “Who’s the donor? Can you tell me? I’ll plead with them…”

“Sienna!” William quickly grabbed her arm. “Calm down! That’s illegal!”

Sienna froze, her eyes turning redder. What was she supposed to do? What about Joyce!

“Stenna William understood the heart of a mother. “Don’t be too sad. There will be more chances. Joyce’s condition isn’t critical yei

That may be true now, but what about the future? If the illness isn’t treated Joyce would need regular hospital visits! She tried to think positively- that the condition could stabilize. But what if it didn’t?

Sienna took a deep breath, pressed her palms down on the uble, and stood up. Thank you, William. I. I need to see Joyce”

“Sienna”

I’m fine” Sienna turned around, biting her lower lip.

Standing in front of the hospital room door, she took deep breaths, trying to hold back her tears. She couldn’t let Joyce see her upset

Opening the door, it was eerily quiet. The bed was empty–joyce wasn’t there.

In the lobby on the first floor. Josiah had just seen off a supplier who came to visit him and was turning back to his hospital room when a familiar Linke figure caught his eye out of the corner.

He took a step back, squinting slightly. Wasn’t that the same little girl he had run into last time, standing in front of the vending machine?

Josiah walked over and crouched down. “Joyce

Joyce turned around, her initial look of confusion turning into a bright smile upon seeing him. “It’s you, Mr. Josiah!”

He gently ruffled her hair. “What are you doing here? It’s bedtime, where’s your nurse?”

The little one didn’t answer. Instead, she pointed at the vending machine. “Uncle, strawberry milk

What does she mean! Josiah raised an eyebrow, wondering if she wanted him to buy it for her.

How could he resist such a cute little bundle? He pulled out his walles, dropped in some coins, and pressed the button, “Here you go, strawberry

She leaped into his arms, wrapping her little arms around his neck. Then, all of a sudden, she asked in a quiet voice, “Mr. Josiah, do you know wit
