Tiffany , despite being a woman , had quite a business minded head .

She was running a small convenience store back then , but it was making a pretty good profit .

They hit it off immediately , and from there , Tiffany used the income from her store to support Larry through his studies .

The house and the car- they were all bought with Tiffanys hard earned money .

Are you okay , Sienna ? Josiah raised his hand , waving it in front of Siennas face with a concerned frown .

Whats going on ? Is it because Cedrics got a girlfriend ? Are you upset ! Of course not .

Sienna snapped out of her thoughts and looked at him .

I just think the girl looks familiar .

Really ? Josiah raised an eyebrow and glanced at Reyna Nowadays , all these girls look the same once they put on makeup .

Josiah gently took Siennas hand .

Her fingers were soft , slender , and beautiful so pleasant to look at .

I can tell youre different .

Youre more beautiful than all of them .

Sienna blushed and pushed him away lightly .

She pointed at the plate .

The salmon is delicious .

Go get some more Josiah glanced at the empty plate , smiled , and stood up .

Sure .

As soon as he left , Sienas smile faded .

Something didnt feel right .

From what Josiah said , it seemed like Cedric and Reyna were dating .

Sienna wasnt jealous .

It was more that she felt sorry for Cedric .

She thought , Forget about Reynas parents .

The fact that Reyna could go so far as to threaten and kidnap someone for her gain .

Shes no good person .

Does Cedric really know her ! Has he figured her out and still liked her , or is he totally clueless ? Should I even get involved ! Sienna felt conflicted and uncertain , unsure of what to do .

The next morning , Sienna arrived at the Lightning Dance early .

She hadnt even had time to change before someone called for her .

Ms.

Scott is here .

She wants to see you 1/2 d Chapter 259 Sienna said , Okay , Ill be right there .

Brenda had been resting for quite a while .

She had been seriously injured during the incident in Fliraty and had to heal from some great injuries .

She was still in a semi recovery phase .

Hi , Ms.

Scott .

Sienna knocked on the door and entered the break room , standing respectfully .

I hope you feel much better now , I do Brenda gestured to her leg .

You cant rush things .

She had come for something important .

Come here and sit down .

Alright .

Sienna followed her instructions and sat down .

Ms.

Scott , is there something you need from me ? Brenda was direct .

Sienna , I want to assign you to work as a dance consultant for a variety dance show at the TV station , Sienna froze , surprised .

But , Ms.

Scott , we have been on a break for over a month .

Arent we about to start performing again ? Not yet .

Brenda sighed .

The energy is badly depleted .

Some of the dancers simply wont be able to perform again .

Sienna had heard about it .

Injuries to muscles and bones were the worst .

For ordinary people , as long as the injury didnt affect daily life , it wasnt a huge issue .

However , for dancers , renuming to the stage wasnt always guaranteed .

This time , two of the lead dancers in the troupe wouldnt be able to perform again .

As soon as Brenda found out , she immediately selected replacements .

Now , the troupe was mostly made up of newer dancers , so the box office appeal wouldnt be what it used to be .

Brenda spoke seriously , Sienna .

I need you to help build the troupes reputation through this variety show .

Do you understand ? In this era dominated by online influence , Brenda knew all too well that internet fame was a double edged sword .

Sienna , I trust you .

I believe in your passion for the stage .

The entertainment industry was chaotic , and appearing on a variety show was like stepping halfway into it .

If one wasnt careful , he could easily get distracted by its allure .

Brenda was looking for someone reliable .

Otherwise , once Sienna entered the entertainment circle after being on a show , it would all be for nothing Sienna nodded firmly .

I understand , Ms.

Scott .

Ill do it properly .

Good .

Brenda smiled with relief .

Tll send your information to the crew .

Theyll reach out to you soon ! Sienna said .

Thank you , Ms.

Scon In the afternoon , Sienna received a call from the crew .

It was Friday , and they had agreed to meet next Monday to discuss the details further .

Around four or five in the afternoon , snowflakes began to fall .

Sienna received a message from Josiah : [ Ill be at the Lightning Dance entrance in 10 minutes .

] He had social obligations the next day and couldnt accompany her , so he had decided to finish early today .

Sienna felt secretly pleased .

His having something to do was great for her she had time to spend with Joyce .

She could take Joyce shopping and buy her some new clothes .

Joyce had grown quite a bit lately , and most of her clothes were too small .

After changing into some fresh clothes and grabbing her bag , Sienna stepped out of the Lightning Dance .

Just as she reached the entrance , her phone rang .

She expected it to be Josiah , but when she looked at the screen , it was a strange number .

Puzzled , she answered , Hello ! The caller was completely silent .

Sienna frowned and raised her voice slightly .

Can you hear me ? Whos this ? Who are you looking for ? Still , nothing but silence .

Hello ! Sienna felt an an uneasy sensation creeping up her spine , , and then suddenly , she had an accident .
