Larry looked ed at Tania and then at Sienna , feeling utterly torn .

He turned to help Sienna up .

Sienna , get up .

Lets talk this through … Sienna looked ups abruptly at Larry and grabbed his arm .

Since Tania refused to speak .

Larry was her only hope .

She bit down on her lip so hard that her sharp teeth pierced the skin , drawing fresh blood .

Gathering her strength .

Sienna said , Dad Larry was shocked .

Sienna , you … What did you just call me ? It had been over a decade ever since Tiffanys passing .

Sienna had never called Larry that again .

Dad Tears streamed down Siennas face as she called out once mo nord .

At that moment , nothing neither her hatred nor her pride mattered in the face of Joyers surgery , Sienna knelt on the floor, clutching Larrys arm with all her might .

Dad .

Sienna stared at Larry with pleading eyes , Choking back sobs , she begged , Please , I beg you , help me .

Please .

Im begging you .

Just tell me where Conner is .

Make her tell me where he is .

Sienna could barely speak through her tears .

When Mom died .

I begged you to take me in , but you refused .

When Grandma passed away , you did the same .

I begged you to come get me when I was being sent to Fliraty , but you never did .

Sienna added .

Upon hearing that Josiah was taken aback .

He couldnt believe Sienna had gone to Larry for help back then, before heading to Fliraty .

She despised hirn , yet she still pleaded with him .

Just how much had Sienna dreaded leaving for Flirty that she would humble herself before the very man she loathed ? Josiah wondered .

Before Josiah could dwell on it further , Sienna choked back a sob and continued , When I returned to Jeiacrity , I asked to borrow 150 thousand dollars for Joyces surgery , but you ran away , afraid Tania would find out … Each instance revealed Larrys cold hearted nature .

Dad Sienna bit down hard on her already wounded lips .

Just this once .

I beg you , please .

For the sake of me being your daughter , help me this one time , Joyce is all I have in this world .

Shes all I have left .

Siennas breath hitched , almost losing consciousness Sienna Josiah reacted swiftly , catching Sienna before she could collapse .

Are you all right ? Dad Sienna ignored Josiah and grabbed Larry by the arm .

Please , Im begging you .

Sienna .

Larry said , his face was streaked with tears , yet he remained hesitant .

I promise Ill try , but I cant guarantee anything After all these years of living under the same roof , of course Larry knew what kind of person Tania was .

Upon hearing that , Sienna straightened her back .

Her face turned ashen , her eyes lifeless and unmoving Sienna , Josiah called .

Why am I so useless ! I cant save my daughter .

Ah … Sienna lifted her gaze , clutching tightly onto Josiahs lapel .

What do I do ! joyce … What do I do ? Why a Darkness clouded Siennas vision as her eyelids fluttered shut .

Eventually , her strength gave out , and she collapsed into Josiahs arms .

Sienna Josiah caught Sienna , scooping her up effortlessly .

His long strides carried them past the Fischer residences threshold .

His brows furrowed as he gazed at the fragile figure in his embrace .

Josiah wondered what right he had to call himself a man if he couldnt protect Sienu and Joyce .
