Chapter 135 Sienna swiped her phone open to read Cedrics message first : [ Sienna , Ill sort things out at home .
Its okay if you dont want to talk to me right now .
Ill show you that Im not giving up on you .
] Why would he go to such lengths for me ? Sienna closed her eyes for a moment .
She was moved by Cedrics determination , yet it also made her sad .
But she knew she shouldnt reply to this message .
She figured that if she kept ignoring him , he would eventually give up .
Ending it now would hurt him the least .
Then Sienna opened Josiahs chat : [ Sienna , I saw Cedric .
Are you alright ? ] She frowned .
How could he have seen Cedric? Wasnt he gone ? Did he go back ? Why did he go back ? There was more to his message : [ You left your headband in my car .
Im returning it to you .
] So thats what happened .
Sienna touched her wrist and noticed the headband was gone .
She raised her fingers to reply : [ No need .
Its just a headband .
You can just throw it away .
] At that moment , Josiah sat in his car parked at the entrance of Lyceum Street .
He held a plum colored headband with some white plastic beads intertwined in it .
After reading Siennas reply , he looked at the headband and muttered , She doesnt want it anymore ? He picked up his phone and typed back : [ Im at the corner .
Ill bring it to you , and its no trouble .
] Sienna replied quickly : [ No need , really , and Im not on 12th Avenue now .
] Not on 12th Avenues Josiah suddenly tensed , quickly realizing that Sienna might have seen Cedric and was avoiding him .
Josiahs lips curled into a slight smile , and a trace of unbidden excitement passed through his heart .
[ Then where are you ? ] [ At a friends place .
] Sienna typed back , not providing a specific address .
Josiah pondered , wondering if asking more would make Sienna find him annoying .
After a while , he decided to let it go .
Even if he knew the address , he could do nothing about it .
[ I got it .
] Josiah put down the phone , rolled down the car window , and extended his arm outside , holding the headband .
There was a trash can by the roadside ; with a slight toss , he could throw it away .
But , after pausing for two seconds , Josiah pulled his arm back .
He gently rubbed the headband in his hand , not willing to throw it away .
He then started the car and hit the road .
When he passed TeeMall , he stopped and went to the womens boutique .
As soon as the sales assistant at TeeMall saw him , she exclaimed silently , Mr.

Flynn ? The Boss is here .
She quickly called the supervisor to assist him .
Mr.
Flynn , youre welcome , The supervisor greeted Josiah with a big smile .
Is there anything you need ? Just in time .
Josiah rubbed his forehead , surprised by the overwhelming number of womens items .
He picked up the headband in his hand and asked , Can you see if theres one like this ? Well … The supervisor took the headband from him and examined it carefully .
We have some that look similar , but theyre not exactly the same .
Let me see , Josiah said flatly .
Alright .
The supervisor turned around and quickly asked the assistant to fetch them .
Soon , the assistant returned with a tray , arranging them for Josiah to choose from .
Mr.
Flynn , have a look , these are the styles that are quite similar .
Okay .
Josiah nodded , and carefully checked each one before finally picking the one that looked the closest .
Ill take this one .
Alright , would you like it gift wrapped ? the supervisor asked .
No need .
Just hand it to me .
Josiah said .
He knew rapping it would make it seem too serious , and Sienna definitely wouldnt accept it .
The supervisor smiled , Okay , please sign here .
Its $ 513 .
The headband looked like the one Sienna had , but hers had plastic beads while this one featured Tayitian pearls , which made the price vastly different .
Josiah signed the receipt , took the headband , and left TeeMall .

At this moment , Howard was in the bathroom , leaning back on a shampoo chair while Yvette was getting ready to wash his hair .
Youre here , Josiah ? Yvette smiled .
Hey , Howard , Yvette , Josiah greeted .
Yvette was rolling up her sleeves when her phone suddenly rang .
Well , Ill take this call .
You can chat with Howard for a bit .
Ill be right back .
With that , she walked out with her phone in hand .
Okay , Josiah replied as he pulled out a chair and sat down , resting his arm on the back .
In front of Howard , he still faintly showed that little boy from back in the day .
Taking advantage of Yvettes absence , Josiah lowered his voice conspiratorially , Lately , I heard youve had Hervey looking for someone ? He didnt go snooping .
It was just when Hervey was searching , Zach picked up on it .
No intentional digging , just vague news .
Howard stiffened , his brow furrowing slightly in confusion .
He wanted to say something , but he couldnt .
Huh ? Josiah noticed Howard seemed nervous and curiously asked , Youre not looking for a girl , are you ? Non … Non … Howard got excited , his throat emitting indistinct sounds .
Nonsense ? Josiah caught the hint and raised an eyebrow .
He teased , Dont get so worked up .
I know youve got Yvette now , and Im just joking around .
Relax .
I wont say anything to stir things up with her .
As for who Howard was searching for , Josiah decided not to push .
If Howard didnt want to share , that was fine with him .
Just then , Yvette came in after finishing her phone call .
What are you talking about ? Just chatting , Josiah smiled and stood up .
I wont disturb you anymore.
He turned to leave , but something fell from him onto the floor .
Yvette opened her mouth , ready to call him back .
But then she noticed it was a pearl headband .
Isnt that something women wear ? Why would Josiah have this ? She frowned as she picked it up and realized it looked brand new .
From behind , Howard let out a hoarse voice .
% & … Coming .
Yvette snapped back to reality , lifted her hand , and tied up her long hair with the headband .
Got impatient ? Ill wash your hair now .
Only when Josiah got back to his room did he realize that the new headband he bought for Sienna was missing .
What happened ? Where did it go ? He searched everywhere , even went back to check the car , but it was nowhere to be found .
Could it be left in Howards room ? Then it wouldnt be good to bother him , Josiah thought and decided to just buy another one later .
At 7 PM , Sienna was putting on makeup , getting ready for her performance later .
Just then , Rosie came in , pointing towards the door .
Someones outside asking for you .
She lowered her voice .
Its a cute guy .
Sienna immediately guessed who it was .
Rosie , could you please tell him I wont see him and ask him to leave ? Huh ? Rosie was a little surprised , but she nodded .
Alright then .
She turned and headed out to the door where Cedric was waiting .
Cedric looked hopeful at first .
But upon seeing Rosie , he turned disappointed .
Sienna wont see me .
