So, she got the address from Cedric, and after finishing at the se she took a cals over. The traffic was a bit heavy, so she arrived a little later than planned.
The server led hes in, and by the time she entered, the party had already started. The place was lively Sienna spotted Cedric in the crowd, but he was busy, so she diel want to disturb him. She found a seat and sat down. The people around her were all young faces.
Sienna quietly breathed a sigh of relief. Thankfully, there were no older folks around.
âWell, well, who do we have here?â Suddenly, a group of three or four people approached, with the leader, Keyla, crossing her arms and smiling maliciously. It was Keyla.
Sienna frowned, planning to thove to another spot. She and Keyla had never gotten along, and she didnât want confrontation to start a âWhere do you think youâre going?â But as soon as she stood up, Keyla blocked her way with her arm. âSienna, long time no ce. Why donât we have a little chat?â
It was clear she was just looking for trouble. Sienna held back her impatience. âMove aside. Thereâs nothing for us to talk about.
âWhat do you mean? Thereâs nothing to talk about? Keyla sneered. âHow about you start by explaining why youâre so thick- skinned? Mrs. Flynn might indulge you, but this is a private birthday party, âYouâre just an adopted daughter of the Flynn family, yet you really think youâre on the same level as us, huh?â
One of the women standing nearby whispered, âI think Josiahâs here too.
âOh Keyla raised an eyebrow, thinking she had figured it out. So, youâre here to chase after Josiah, huh? Hey, youâre not just shameless. Youâve got no shame at all.
The others exchanged looks and snickered.
âGo ahead, and tell us why youâre here. What, did Mr. Flynn dump you? Is that why youâre here fishing for a rich husbandâ she pressed.
âDream on,â she mocked.
âLike climbing the social ladder,â she added.
Sienna shut her eyes briefly, deciding to ignore them, ready to speak up when....
Enoughâ A deep voice cut through the mocking laughter of the group Everyone froze, then turned to look. A group had just entered the room. Cedric, Josiah, Yosef, and even Yvette were all there.
Keyla stared at Josiahâs face, her mouth slightly open as she muttered, âJosiah...â
She wasnât sure if he heard her, probably not, since Josiah had his chin slightly raised, his eyes lowered, and no expression 1/3 Mon, Jan Chapter 111 on his face.
It was Cedric, however, who strode over to Sienna. In one swift move, he grabbed her wrist. Sienna was taken aback, feeling slightly uncomfortable, but didnât pull away.
âYou... Cedricâs handsome face darkened, storm clouds now gathering in his gaze as he looked at Keyla and the others. He spoke sharply, âYou will apologize to Sienna, Nowâ
âWhat?â The group stared at him, wideâeyed. âApologize to her? Why should we?â
âWhy?â Cedric laughed coldly. âBecause youâve been running your mouths, insulting her.â
âInsulting?â Keyla was stunned. âWhen did 1 insult her?â
She had just made a remark about Sienna, but she hadnât... âWhat did I say that was wrong? Sheâs just an orphan, who knows how she ended up here... she began.
Someone tugged at Keylaâs arm, signaling her to look at Sienna. Keyla froze and finally saw Cedric holding her hand.
âYou... you two... Keyla was surprised.
Thatâs right, Cedric stood protectively in front of Sienna. âSier is my girlfriend. Sheâs the person who most deserves to be here today. As for you all...
Cedricâs gaze swept over Keyla and the others. Please leave immediately. I donât welcome people who talk badly about my girlfriend.â
Sienna was Cedricâs girlfriend. That was a bombshell. Aside from Josiah, everyone in the room was stunned.
âNot leaving?â Cedric didnât care what they thought. âIf you donât leave now, Iâll have to call security to escort you out.â Once the host spoke, there was no way they could stay. If they kept causing trouble, it would make things awkward. âFine, weâre going. Keyla bit her lip in frustration, glaring at Sienna before storming toward the exit, fuming.
Her friends were just as upset. âShe really knows how to work it, doesnât she? First Mr. Flynn, now sheâs onto Mr. Brawne.â
âWell, if she had no skills, Mrs. Flynn wouldnât be so sweet on her âPoor Mr. Brawne..
Keyla couldnât stand their comments. She spun around angrily. Are you all done? Can we leave already?â She didnât watch where she was going and stepped on something.
Looking down, she realized sheâd stepped on Yvetteâs foot âYvette?â Keyla paled and quickly apologized. âSorry, sorry! Are you okay?â
âI....â
âDo you think?â Yvette didnât get the chance to respond before Josiah, standing nearby, glared at Keyla with eyes full of menace like a storm was about to break.
Keyla froze, fear flooding her.
Josiah...â Yvette tugged at his sleeve, speaking quietly. Iâm fine. Itâs not that bad.â
She gave Keyla a pointed look. âArenât you going to leave?â
âOkayâ Keyla shivered and took a step back, ready to bolt.
20:47 Mon, Jun o Chapter 111 âHold it.â Josiahâs voice was sharp, and his command froze her in her tracks. âYou canât leave yet.â
Yosef put a hand on Josiahâs shoulder, trying to calm him down, Relax. Yvette said sheâs fine. Sheâs a girl. Itâs not a big deal. Letâs just let it go.â
Josiah didnât respond. Let it go? No way, he wondered. The anger still simmered in him.
Yvette, noticing Josiahâs behavior, glanced at Sienna with a cold look. He was just using her as an excuse to blow off steam.
Sure enough, Josiah raised his eyes to glance at Sienna before turning to Keyla. âDidnât Cedric tell you to apologize to Sienna? Are you deaf?â
Keyla was stunned, her mouth hanging open in disbelief.
âStill not moving?â Josiahâs voice raised, and his foot stomped so hard that the floor seemed to shake.
âIâm sorry.â Keyla gulped, then quickly turned to Sienna, her tone unexpectedly humble. âSienna, Iâm really sorry, I was out of line earlier. Please donât be mad.â
âUh...â Sienna was speechless. This was the first time sheâd ever seen Keyla act so subservient. It felt pretty awkward.
âItâs okay,â she said.
âMr. Flynn.â Keyla seemed to think sheâd been given a pass. âCan leave now?â
âGerlost.â Josiah frowned, clearly annoyed, and waved his hand dismissively.
Keyla shuddered, then turned and practically ran out, her face red and full of embarrassment.

Josiah isnât planning on going back to Sienna, is he?â wondered Thomas.
