Chapter 187 As Rosie cried so much , Sienu felt she couldnt say more .

After leaving the apartment building , she stayed gloomy .

Josiah drove the car while trying to console her , Are you still worried about your friend ? Siena didnt speak and just nodded .

I want to say something , but please dont get upset .

Josiah tapped the steering wheel lightly .

Shes just a friend .

You can care about her and help her , but you cant live her life for her .

Try not to worry too much , okay ? Sienna nodded , still feeling gloomy as she looked out the w window she really didnt understand Earlier , as Sienna said Daniel had a wiffe .

Rosie was extremely calm about it , not surprised at all .

It seemed like she already knew .

Sienna couldnt understand why she was still getting so involved with Daniel .

Although they hadnt known each other for long , Siena didnt think Rosie was the kind of person to get involved with a married man .

She just couldnt understand what was going on .

Sienna and Josiah didnt speak the whole way until they arrived at Silver Beach .

The car drove through the community gates , and the security guard greeted them with a smile , Mr.

and Mrs.

Flynn , welcome home .

Thanks, Josiah smiled , feeling quite pleased .

Sienna was taken aback and looked at him .

He had called her his wife carlier , and she really hated that label .

She frowned and asked , Why is he calling me Mrs.

Flynn ! Josiah acted like it was no big deal , Of course , I said it.

Sienna found it amusing .

Are you forgetting things ? Were already divorced ? Josiah was momentarily taken aback .

As the car entered the garage , he parked and turned to face her .

His eyes darkened ; he didnt expect her reaction to be so intense .

He admitted fault first .

Sorry , but its just a habit .

For four years , youve been my wife .

How long has it been since we divorced ? I just slipped up Sienna wasnt sure whether to believe him .

She bit her lip and said , A wife is different from a girlfriend , so please , get it right .

Josiah froze for a moment before reluctantly agreeing .

Alright , no problem .

But soon , he felt a strange itch in his jaw .

Unable to help himself , be glanced up at her .

With a teasing tone , he said .

Have you ever thought that if we keep moving forward and things calm down a bit , we might have a chance to get back together ! No way Sienna quickly replied , almost cutting him off , leaving no room for doubt .

Josiah didnt expect her to respond so quickly and firmly .

It stung him a bit , and he asked with frustration , Why ? Its simple .

We tried marriage ; it didnt work , did it ? Its a path that doesnt fit us .

Why go through the same mistakes again ! Sienna picked up her bag , opened the car door , and got out .

Josiah sat in stunned silence for a couple of seconds before getting out .

His face was tense and even darker than the night around them .

After taking a shower , Sienna lay in bed and started watching videos on her tablet .

Josiah joined her a moment later , climbing into bed and wrapping his arms around her .

What are you watching ? Sienna was so engrossed in the video .

She just pointed it without bothering to reply .

Oh , that show Poker Face .

Its not bad , Josiah said , holding her tighter and tighter and getting a little restless .

He leaned down to give her a peck on the hair , then moved down to kiss her cheek .

Sienna was fed up and put down her tablet .

Youre annoying .

Not at all Josiah stared at her beautiful face , his eyes lighting up .

Sienna , its been a while It had been quite some time since they were last intimate .

Josiah was a healthy guy .

Lying next to such a pretty girlfriend every day and not 1/2 d Chapter 1ST touching how was he supposed to manage ! He gave her a pleading look .

Sienna , have some pity on me .

Too bad .

Sienna was hard hearted .

She pushed him away without any pity .

I told you already , Im not interested for now .

You did say that Josiah frowned , trying to persuade .

But hasnt it been days ? Oh .

cant wait anymore ? Sienna looked at him mockingly Well , you can always find someone Sienna Shaw ! Josiah cut her off .

His lips pressed into a line as he suppressed his annoyance .

If you dont want me to touch you , I wont .

Just dont say things to annoy me on purpose .

With that , he threw off the covers and headed to the bathroom .

Sienna was puzzled .

Whats he up to ? Acting like a virtuous husband ? Why ? For me ? Suddenly , her heart skipped a beat .

No , could it be ? In our relationship , respect and loyalty arent exactly good signs .

The next day .

Sienna finally had a day off , Josiah didnt go to the office and took her to Pine Valley Golf Course .

Josiah had some work to do here too .

Businesspeople often made important decisions in informal settings like this .

Miranda had spared no expense in educating Sienna , raising her according to high society standards .

This was why Sienna had mixed feelings about the Flynns over the years .

Sienna raised an eyebrow .

Over there was the lounge , where people could rest and enjoy the scenery outside .

He wasnt like this before , and she guessed it was because he was getting older .

That even reminded her of her grandina .

Wait fo Wait for me .

Josiah withdrew his hand without getting angry .

Sienna frowned .

I dont like dining with you and your business associates .

A table full of scheming businessmen gives me indigestion .

Dont worry .

Its just us Josiah liked it when she made requests of him she looked so lively and vibrant then .

Somehow , after he left , she swung a few more times but felt bored and went to the lounge .
