Caught In His Embrace: A Second Chance Romance

Chapter 219 After a moment of silence , Howard sighed and said , Of course , I do .

Alright , lets … get married .

Yvette was momentarily shocked , and then tears overflowed from her eyes .

Howard moved closer , took her hand , and gently said , Please dont cry … I have no one but you .

Yvette asked , Is that true ? Absolutely .

Miranda clapped her hands in delight , exclaiming , Wonderful ! Were going to have a joyful wedding .

Not only was Miranda thrilled , but Josiah was excited too .

When he returned to Silver Beach , he could hardly contain his happiness .

Sienna looked at him , confused .

Why are you so happy about their marriage ? Why wouldnt I be ? Josiah replied .

My brother and Yvette have been friends since childhood ; theyve always promised to be together for life .

Sienna pondered , What about you ? You seem to have feelings for Yvette .

Wouldnt you feel a bit jealous ? Can you really love her so selflessly that her happiness alone brings you joy ? What are you thinking ? Josiah realized what was on her mind .

He playfully tapped her forehead .

Are you overthinking again ? Ive told you many times my relationship with Yvette is pure , yet you refuse to believe it .

Sienna didnt trust him , but what confused her more was her intuition that this marriage might not really happen .

The events around Yvettes miscarriage four years ago and Howards questionable faithfulness hung heavily .

Despite Siennas worries , the engagement between Howard and Yvette was firmly in place .

As the eldest grandson , Howard was expected to continue living at the Flynn residence after the marriage .

He didnt need to move out ; he just needed to reorganize the current room .

When it came to the wedding , Miranda insisted everything be done to fit Yvettes taste .

After all , the ceremony was mainly for the bride , so making her happy was the most important thing .

Sienna was a bit surprised to hear that Yvette had asked for wedding gown designs online .

The Flynn family could easily afford a top designer , and since Yvette had a good reputation in the entertainment industry , they could have even gotten sponsorships from luxury brands .

But instead , she wanted to invite designs from the public and pick her favorite .

Even before the actual wedding plans were set , news of her upcoming marriage to Howard was already making waves in Jeiacrity , becoming quite the sensation .

Sienna couldnt help but feel this was Yvettes way of provoking someone most likely the other person Yvette suspected Howard was involved with .

At noon , Sienna had lunch with Rosie , who also heard about the wedding .

Howard is going to marry her ? Rosie couldnt help but scoff because she had a history with Yvette .

Thats right .

They simply fell for each other , Sienna confirmed .

Rosie curled her lips .

I guess its an odd match made in heaven .

Sienna laughed at the remark .

Everyone has their own tastes , I suppose .

Exactly Rosie whispered , You know , I also entered that gown design competition .

Sienna was surprised .

You entered the gown design competition ? Rosie nodded , amused by Siennas reaction .

You havent forgotten what I do for a living , have you ? Rosie was studying fashion design but was still pretty unknown in the industry .

Sienna voiced her concern , Arent you worried Yvette might come after you ? Sure , but I dont care ; I want to give it a shot .

Rosie pouted .

Its a great chance ! What if they actually like my design ? I could become famous Chapter 219 overnight Thats true .

Sienna nodded .

In the end , its about the quality of the work .

Even if she does turn against you , you wont lose much Exactly , Rosie replied , beaming with envy .

You cant deny Yvette is lucky .

The Flynn family is at the top in Jeiacrity ! And Howard … hes pretty handsome Hmm ! Sienna was intrigued .

Youve met him ? Of course Rosie reminded her , Remember when you and Josiah had that fight : Howard also came to Sunshine Neighborhood ; be even drove me home .

She reflected and added .

He is strikingly charming ! Sienna made another trip to the hospital for fertility medication , arranged through Hannahs connections Feeling a bit disheartened after not getting pregnant last time , Sienna said to the doctor .

I followed your advice , but I still didnt get pregnant Stay calm , the doctor advised .

Pregnancy often takes time .

Taking the medication doesnt guarantee conception Sienna understood , but she was still anxious .

The doctor asked , Do you want another prescription ?TM Yes .

Unaware of her deeper reasons , the doctor said kindly , Youre still young theres no need to put so much pressure on yourself .

This medication shouldnt be taken continuously ; using it too much can have bad effects on your health ? Hannah had also mentioned this , but Sienna felt comered .

I see ; thank you for your concern .

With persuasion failing , the doctor handed her the prescription .

If you feel nauseous or dizzy , be sure to rest .

Alright .

That evening , when Josiah returned to Silver Beach , Sienna greeted him with a big smile .

Youre back .

She wrapped her arms around him tightly .

Josiah took this as a sign .

He held her delicate waist with one hand and lifted her chin with the other , leaning down to kiss her .

It felt almost uncontrollable , but he still remembered to ask Are you okay ! Is this alright ? Mm .

She nodded And so , they went upstairs .

Tonight .

Sienna was more passionate than usual , Josiah held her close , unable to hide his delight .

Whats gotten into you today ? What do you mean ! Sienna played dumb .

Josiah nestled into the nape of her neck , laughing softly .

After all this time , you must be missing me , right ? Sienna closed her eyes and stayed silent .

I know without you saying anything Josiah held her tightly .

Sienna , youve started to like me , havent you ? Sienna didnt know how he came to that conclusion .

Im so happy Josiah added .

He thought .

Isnt it said that men and women are different ? A woman who doesnt like a man wouldnt take the initiative in intimacy ! As Josiah thought about this , he couldnt help but chuckle , You almost swallowed me just now .

That was the proof of her feelings for hir Sienna didnt know how he interpreted her actions , but if she had known , she would have snapped back women can also be forward for reasons other than love .

For instance , the longing for a child .

In the bathroom , Sienna took the lead again , Josiah thought , And the still denies her feelings for me ? The next morning , at the breakfast table , Sienna peeled an egg , took out the yolk , and offered it to Josiah , who instinctively accepted it Sienna didnt eat the yolk herself .

After Josiah swallowed , he asked .

So , were not working this weekend , right ? Sienna nodded , confirming the dance troupe was off for the weekend .

Lets plan a date then , Josiah said .
