Chapter 309 Ive changed a bit from four years ago , but as the saying goes , You can take the boy ou out of the country , but you cant take the country out of the boy My essence remains the same , Sienna said .

She leaned back in her seat , her smile faint as she spoke , You used to dislike me so much ; you wouldnt like me much more now .

This had been proven in their interactions over the past while .

He did have some affection for her , but it wasnt enough for her to let go of the past , much less to build a lasting future .

Josiahs insides churned , but his lips curled into a mokking smile as he said , Whether I like you or not , you should know better than I do , right ? Hmm Sienna raised an eyebrow and said .

Never heard of the onlookers see most of the game ? She stared right at his handsome face , speaking seriously .

Im just your second choice .

Four years ago , I was foolish and paid a heavy price for it .

Four years later , why would you think Id repeat the same mistake ! Just because you find me more tolerable than you did four years ago ? Sienna said .

Upon hearing this , the mans eyes darkened suddenly .

Sienna took a deep breath and said , Im grateful that youve accepted Joyce and are responsible for her .

Youre not entirely without redeeming qualities But we dont need to force ourselves together for joyces sake .

We can just love her from our own sides , Sienna finished , closed her eyes , and leaned back , not intending to continue the topic .

Sienna .

Faced with her resistant attitude , Josiah wanted to say something but stopped himself , only managing to bitterly twist his lips and drive in silence .

The car stopped in front of the apartment building .

Thanks Sienna turned to open the car door , only to find it locked .

She said , Josiah , open the door , please Josiah didnt move , took a piece of gum from the storage box , popped it into his mouth , and even offered it to Sienna with a wave of his hand , saying , Want some ! Sienna was taken aback , frowned , and said , I need to get out of the cart Seeing Josiah still unmoving , she anxiously lunged over , trying to unlock Taking the opportunity , Josiah pulled her into a tight embrace .

Sienna looked up in shock .

Sienna , Josiah called out .

He murmured her name affectionately , and said , Weve been together for so long .

Dont you have any feelings for me at all ? You used to like me a Jot .

Sienna frowned , struggling to break free , but he didnt seem to be using much strength , yet she couldnt budge .

She stammered in confusion , Like you ? You already know that .

If it werent for Joyce , would I be with someone who abandoned me for four years ! Struck as if by a heavy blow , Josiah froze , his expression utterly blank .

Sienna took the chance to push him away and turned to get out of the car .

Sienna Josiah said , then suddenly , he leaned in and hugged her from behind , and his arm stretched out in front of her .

Josiah complained in a low voice , What am I supposed to do ? I didnt like you before ! I treated you badly .

But I cant go back to the past .

Tell me , what should I do ? Josiah thought , How could I have anticipated this day back then ? Siennas back stiffened , and she stared blankly out the car window , her voice cold as she said , Then look forward .

She closed her eyes , a memory flashing through her mind of her boarding a plane alone to Fliraty four years ago .

You are already a thing of the past to me .

What we had ended four years ago , Sienna said .

After leaving Sunshine Neighborhood , it was still early .

Josiah didnt feel like going back to the desolate Silver Beach and went to Mouse House instead .

To his surprise , he only saw Thomas and not Yosel .

Whats keeping Yosef so busy ? Josiah asked casually .

ΕΠ 7:28 Act Chapter 309 Thomas shook his head and said , Not sure , he mentioned some family matters Josiah was taken aback and said .

What kind of matters ? Does he need help ? He didnt say .

Hell ask if he needs to .

Thomas nodded at Josiah and said , Ters play a romel .

Sure , Josiah replied .

Yosefs family indeed had matters at hand , but it wasnt the Compton family .

It was Xenias family .

When Yosef arrived , Xenia saw him and anxiously grabbed his hand , saying .

Yosef , you have lo help Austic Dont worry , Auntie Yosef nodded and said , Til do my best .

Then he asked , Wheres Cedric ? In the study upstairs , Xenia frowned and led Yosef upstairs , saying , I dont know why hes so stubborn about going abroad , As they spoke , they reached the study and knocked on the door .

Xenia said , Cedric, its Mom and your r cousin Come in , came Cedrics clear voice from inside .

Go ahead Xenia said , pushing the door open to find the study in disarray , with Cedrics books , on all sorts of topics , piled everywhere .noveldrama

Whats 17 Xenia frowned and said , Your cousin is here , and theres no place to even put a foot down going on ! Its fine .

Yosef replied Bro .

Cedric smiled at Yosef and said .

Sorry , I didnt know you were coming .

Im packing up these books .

Theyll just gather dust if I leave them here .

Cedric ! Xenia became anxious upon hearing this and said .

Why are you so stubborn ! She held Cedric and said , Mom knows that the blind date with Reyna made you uncomfortable , but that was the Fischer familys fault .

Theyre the ones who lost face .

You dont have to leave your hometown because of them .

Mom , Cedric calmly waited for his mother to finish , then gently smiled and said .

Do you think thats the reason ! Xenia was taken aback and said .

Then what else could it be ? Mom, Cedric lightly furrowed his brows , his tone somewhat heavy as he said , Im an adult .

I want to decide my own life .

I dont want every move I make to be under your surveillance and control Xenia was shocked .

She thought , My son is leaving because of me ? She said , What are you talking about ? Kenia didnt realize her own issue at all and coldly laughed , Tm your mom .

Everything I do , isnt it all for your own good ? Yosef .

Cedric glanced at Yosef and said , See ! Now you understand why I want to leave , right ? Cedric ! Xenia became agitated , shouting .

In front of Yosef , what are yo you saying ! I do everything for your own good , and Im wrong ? For my own good ? Cedric snorted lightly , coldly questioning .

Doing good for me means scheming to separate me from the person I love and then forcing on me someone you like ? You ! Xenia was speechless with anger , her face turning blue as she said , So in the end , its still because of Sienna ? That thing I did , even though I shouldnt have , so what ? Are you going to judge me ? I dare not Cedric said with a cold face , Do as you please .

You Xenia said .

Alright , Auntie ! Yosef hurriedly pulled Xenia aside .

If this continued , the mother and son would become bitter enemies .

Didnt you ask me to persuade Cedric ? Let me talk to him , Yosef said Yosef … Xenias face alternated between blue and white as she patted Yosefs hand and said , Auntie leaves it to you 20 7:28 AM Chapter 309 Dont worry , Auntie .

Xenia glared at her son and sighed as she left the study.

The moment the door closed , Cedric looked at Yosef and smiled faintly , saying , Yosef , you dont need to to persuade me .

My n Yosef looked at his cousin and shook his head helplessly , saying .

What if I told you Sienna and Josiah broke up ! mind is made up .
