Chapter 122
Caught In His Embrace A Second Chance Romance
Chapter 122 When something happened, the first person she wanted to turn was him.
âSienna,â he began.
Cedricâs gaze was intense. âFrom now on, just like today, no matter what happens, call me right away. I donât care what Iâm doing. Iâll drop everything and come to youâ
Sienna froze, momentarily at a loss for words.
To say she wasnât moved would be a lie. Her chest felt warm, almost glowing. This feeling of being genuinely valued was wonderful Before now, she wouldnât have dared to imagine being treated with such care, as if, in his world, she was his top priority.
Everything else came second.
âItâs getting late. Iâll head out now. You should rest early, Coodnight, Cedric said.
âNot wanting to disturb her, Cedric gave a small wave and turned to leave.
âGoodnight,â Sienna whispered softly as she gently closed the door.
Moments later, her phone chimed with a new message from Cedric Cedric: [Donât let the wound get wet, and donât forget to take your medicine.]
Siennaâs breath hitched. Her nose stung, and tears filled her eyes.
After seeing Sienna off, Josiah turned and summoned Zach.
âMr. Flynn, your orders?â Zach asked, Josiahâs sharp eyes narrowed. Those who knew him well understood this expression. His mood was anything but pleasant.
âHandle Enio,â he ordered.
Zach hesitated, unsure of his exact meaning. âMr. Flynn, when you say handle... what level are we talking about?â
Josiah let out a cold laugh, his lips curling into a sinister smirk. Canceling his new film isnât nearly enough. I want him erased. From now on, I donât want to see his name in this industry again.â
It was to blacklist him in the industry. Zach stiffened but quickly responded. âUnderstood.â
He had accompanied Josiah tonight and had naturally witnessed what had happened with Sienna earlier. So, this was about standing up for Sienna.
But this was a bit much.
Umbag Enio had the audacity to touch Sienna. Blacklisting him was already merciful. The fact Josiah didnât break his hands already showed he was showing restraint.
Yel Josiah didnât think so. That The thought made Josiahâs head ache. âCouldnât she just stay out of trouble at the dance studio? Instead, she got expelled, he wandered.
She had barely set foot in the entertainment industry and was already being bullied. She really knew how to make him WOTTY.
Chapter 122 No. She needed to go back to the dance studio where she belonged. But Cedric had already tried using Thomasâs mothers connections, and that path was clearly a dead end.
So, what other options are there?â he wondered. Josial glanced Zach Does Brenda have any weaknesses?â
âHuh?â Zach blinked in surprise before shaking his head. Iâm no sure... But everyone has a weakness. No oneâs ant exception Josiahâs piercing eyes narrowed further. âThen have someone look into Brenda. I want every detail, no matter how smallâ
He refused to believe she was untouchable. There had to be a way to send Sienna back to Lightning Dance.
âYes, Mr. Flynn. Zach nodded.
The next day, Sienna arrived at the set, her heart pounding with anxiety. After last nightâs mess, she had no idea how to face Derek or Charles.
âSienna, you are here!â To her surprise, Derek greeted her as though nothing had happened.
âQuick, Mr. Carter is free right now and wants to see you,â said Derek.
âOh, okay.â Sienna nodded. Completely baffled, Sienna followed him to meet Charles.
âSienna. Surprises just kept coming. Today, Charles was noticeably warmer toward her than ever before. âYouâre here! Come on, and sit down so we can talk,â he said.
-Sfenna felt flattered but quickly waved it off. âNo need, Mr. Carter. Did you need something from me?â
Noticing her unease, Charles found it strange. âYou seem a little nervous. Is it because I didnât step in last night? About what happened then...â
âItâs not that.â Sienna hurriedly shook her head. âI understand the situation. It wasnât easy for you or Derek to handleâ âGood to hear.â Charles sighed in relief, a smile spreading across his face. âBut weâd still appreciate it if you could say a few nice words about us to Mr. Flynn.â
âWhat?â Sienna froze, looking utterly confused. âMr. Carter, what are you talking about?â
âHuh?â Charles looked even more surprised than she did, thinking she was playing coy. âSienna, this isnât fair, you know. Sure, youâve got Mr. Flynn backing you now, but donât forget, we were the ones who gave you your start, right?â
Sienna was even more taken aback. What does he mean by saying I have Mr. Flynn backing me now?â she wondered.
âNo, thatâs not... Sienna chuckled helplessly, realizing theyâd misunderstood. Thereâs nothing between me and Mr. Flynn, not in the way youâre thinkingâ
âAnd what exactly do we think?â Charles and Derek exchanged knowing smiles, waving their hands dismissively. âAre you afraid weâll spread rumors?
Donât worry. As long as itâs about Mr. Flynn, we wouldnât dare say a word.
â...â Sienna tried to deny it again, but Derek cut her off. âSienna, thereâs no need to hide it from us. Let me tell you something. Enioâs been blacklisted in the industry.â
âWhat?â Sienna exclaimed. The news hit her like a boulder dropping into a still pond, each wave of shock bigger than the last.
From Derekâs tone, it sounded like Josiah was behind this. âWho else could it be but Mr. Flynn?â Derek said matterâofâfactly. âLast night, he was the only one there who had that kind of power.
Seeing her confusion: Derek added, âWhat? Mr. Flynn didnât tell you?
20:52 Mon, Jan 6 Chapter 122 âNo.â Sienna shook her head, bewildered.
âThen he probably wanted it to be a surprise,â he said.
Sienna furrowed her brows, a tangle of doubt in her mind. âDid siah really do this? For me? she thought.
It didnât seem possible. When they were siblings, even when they were married, heâd never gone out of his way to do anything for her. Why would he now, when they had no relationship at all?
âSienna,â Charles interrupted her thoughts, steering the conversation toward business. âWith Enio out of the picture, I have an idea. Iâd like to promote you to the second female lead. What do you think?â
Initially, he wouldnât have dared to suggest it. But things were different now, East Entertainment was backing the production, and Josiah had clearly taken an interest in Sienna. From now on, it wouldnât be surprising if they had to rely on her just to stay afloat.
Promoting her served two purposes. Charles genuinely believed in her potential, and it would also please Josiah. Why not kill two birds with one stone?â he wondered.
âThe second female lead?â Sienna hadnât expected this turn of events. After last night, she thought her chances at acting might have been ruined.
Instead, her role had been upgraded. Iâm worried I might not be able to handle it,â she admitted hesitantly.
âThereâs nothing to worry about,â Derek reassured her. âYes, acting talent matters, but do you think Mr. Carterâs just here for the show? A good director knows how to draw out an actorâs potential and guide their performance.â
âExactly.â Charles nodded approvingly. âSienna, I believe in you, Trust me. Youâve got this.â
âBut...â Sienna was still unsure, struggling to make a decision.
âAre you worried something like last night might happen again? Charles waved dismissively. âRelax. Youâre with Mr. Flynn now. No one would be foolish enough to mess with you.â
âThatâs right,â Derek chimed in. âSienna, just focus on your acting Youâve got nothing to worry about.â
