Chapter 144

Chapter 144 Zach picked up on what Josiah was hinting at right away. “Mr. Flynn, you want to get rid of her?” Zach asked.

“Yes,” Josiah confirmed with a subtle nod. It was a no–brainer. He wasn’t going to leave a time bomb near Sienna otherwise.

Sienna had some really bad colic this time. And it happened on a stormy day when roads were closed. If Josiah hadn’t shown up just in time, she could’ve gotten into big trouble. Josiah couldn’t believe how ruthless Nina was being.

At the same time, Cedric got to the Harbwood Hospital.

“Excuse me, was there a patient named Sienna brought in a bit ago Cedric asked.

“Yep, she’s in Observation Room 3, the nurse told him.

“Got it, thanks, Cedric said, walking into the room.

It was quiet and empty He went over and sat down by the bell.

“Sienna” Cedric softly held Sienna’s hand, treating it like a delicate treasure.

“Sorry I got here late, he apologized, his voice heavy with guilt. Just really glad you’re alright.”

Her hand gave a slight twitch in his grip “Sienna“” Cedric asked, his voice rising in surprise. “You awake?”

Sienna’s eyes fluttered open, a small furrow appearing on her brow. “Cedric... it’s you,” she whispered, her voice barely there.

Her mind was foggy from the pain, and she only vaguely recalled being rushed to the hospital. She hadn’t thought it was Cedric who helped her.

Her surprise quickly faded. With blocked roads in the storm, Cedric was the only one she thought would care for her to such an extent and go to such trouble for her.

“Yeah, it’s me,” Cedric said with a nod, not knowing what her words implied. “Sorry about the delay. Feeling any better?”

“Much better. Sienna replied, her voice still weak. “How’d you find out I was sick?”

“Jum told me,” Cedric said.

Sienna recalled Queenie was at the hotel with Brenda, which explained how Jim knew about her illness.

She noticed Cedric was totally drenched. “Why’re you-

Before she could finish, Cedric just chuckled. “No worries. It was pouring our there. Couldn’t stay dry?”

Sienna felt a rush of gratitude for what he’d done for her. “Cedric, thanks so much,” she said softly, her eyes gening a little misty.

Cedric shook his head. “I didn’t do much,” he said.

Sienna couldn’t believe he was playing it down. Without him, she’d have been in a real jam tonight.

“Cedric... Sienna began, reaching for something on the nightstand.

“What do you need?” Cedric asked, seeing her move “This?” He grabbed the big towel hanging on the bedpost “Yep. Menna nodded, and Cedric was about to hand it to her “You’re something” Sienna smiled, “Why’re you giving me the towell You’re the one who’s soaked. You should dry off.

Gedrir smiled wally. “Alright” he said.

Sienna, her voice geile, tossed the towel over his hair. “Dry off quick, or you’ll catch a cold,” she warned.

Sienna had glanced at Cedis with that tender, sweet look and even sumilest, Josialt thought his involvement was ridiculous. Cedric and Sienna’s issue wasn’t their feelings for cash other, but Cedric’s family.

“Sienna, you up?” Cedric asked, walking to the room.

“Yep, she said with a ned.

Sienna could pick up most of the chat through the flimsy observation room door. She knew Cedric had his plate full. “Tin good now, if you need to work, you should go she said.

Not wanting Cedric to put up a fight, she added. “The nurse said Rose phoned and is on her way.

Tin isot asking for much,” Cedric went on, his voler shaking a bit. “I’m giving it my all here. Just lonking for a chance.“.

Sanna was conflicted–she was in a better place now thanks to him, and she worried that saying no might sound ungrateful.

“Sienna, can you give me a shot at getting off your bad list Cedric asked, his e eyes shining with hope.

After a beat, Sienna nodded, locking eyes with him. “Yeah, sure”

Sienna inakdn’t believe it. Did Cedric acully come for me in a helicopter? she wondered, e it.” Rosie’s eyes sparkled. “He can fly a helicopter. That’s straight–up awesome! Sienna, you’ve got great taste”

Sienna felt a bit deflated. Why hadn’t Cedric mentioned at Did he think I’d known that? Or was he trying to avoid making me feel the pressure she thought.

Anyway, knowing this made saying no to Cedric even tougher.
