Look , Tayitian pearls , quite nice quality .
For a headband , though , theyre a bit small .
Really expensive ? Sienna asked .
These few pearls would be at least 300 dollars on the market .
Rosie estimated .
She glanced at Sienna with curiosity and asked , Didnt you buy it yourself ? No.
Sienna shook her head .
She couldnt bring herself to buy something like that .
If shed known Josiah got something so expensive , she wouldnt have accepted it .
Before each evenings show , the dance crew would eat dinner in advance .
Before applying makeup , Sienna and Rosie decided to grab some food at the shopping street nearby .
On their way back , they spotted Cedrics tall figure under the streetlamp from afar He was holding a bag and looking longingly at Sienna as she slowly approached .
Rosie glanced at Sienna and said , Ill go in first .
Okay , Sienna nodded .
With no way to avoid it , she walked right up to Cedric and stopped in front of him , slightly frowning .
You … Just then , Cedric lifted the bag in his hand , filled with desserts from Tasty Bites .
Here .
Sienna didnt take it and sighed helplessly , Cedric , do you really want to turn me into someone I dislike ? Dont be angry , Cedric said cautiously , watching her closely .
I just wanted to come and see you .
Cedric- I have to leave Jeiacrity tonight , Cedric interrupted her quickly , worried she might say something hurtful .
I wont be able to visit you every day anymore .
What did he mean ? Sienna was slightly taken aback .
Where are you going ? Cedric noticed the concern in her eyes and smiled gently .
Ive found a job .
Its with a company run by a classmate , and Ill be joining as a technical partner .
Without his familys backing , he only had his own abilities .
Its a small company , just starting out , and we have very few employees , Cedric explained .
So theres a lot of work to do .
I need to go to Harbwood to meet with a couple of partners .
Sienna was taken aback .
She hadnt expected Cedric to jump into work so quickly .
He , who usually lived like a pampered prince , had suddenly gone from living in luxury to struggling in a cramped , rundown apartment .
Yet , he didnt even take a moment to complain .
He lived there without a word of bitterness , quietly moving forward on his own path .
Sienna , Cedric said , his eyes shining with determination .
I know exactly what Im doing .
I dont need my family to live well .
I wont give up on myself or you .
Siennas lips parted , but she couldnt get a single word out .
Here Codric said , taking her hand and placing the bag in it .
I have to catch the train .
Ill come see you when Im back .
With that , he let go of her hand , smiled , and stepped back .
Im off .
As he turned away , Sienna closed her eyes , feeling tears welling up .
Hes so remarkable always humble when hes on top , and never self pitying when hes down .
Now wander Mrs.
Brawne wouldnt want me to get close him I might drag him down .
That performanor was over .
While removing her makeup , Sienna held the pearl hairband she almost forgot it .
She took out her phone and sent Jonas message : [ How much for the pearl hairband ? Ill transfer it to you Joma waful way back to the Flynn residence when he received the message .

As they nearly arrived , Josiah finally picked up his phone to reply : [ Im almost at Lightning Dance .
Lets talk in person if theres anything .

She didnt think much about it and left Lightning Dance with Rosie .
Thanks for having me these past few days , Rosie .

Dont be so polite ? Anytime you need help , just come to me , Rosie smiled .
As they left the main gate , Sienna saw Josiah leaning against the car door , waiting for her .
Rosie , Im heading out now , she said .
Alright , Rosic nodded .
Sienna jogged over to Josiah , slightly out of breath , and got straight to the point with her phone in hand .
How much ? Josiah frowned , his tone somewhat deep .
Im not here for the money .
So why is he here ? Sienna was surprised and looked up at him .
She paused for a moment and then understood .
I get it .
You just bought it casually , right ? To you , this headband might be like a small expense , but to me , its invaluable .
Wait a moment .
Josiahs eyes darkened .
Do you think I just bought this on a whim ? Sienna paused .
Isnt it ? Yeah , I just bought it on a whim .
Josiah laughed out of anger , pressing his tongue against his teeth .
His chest felt a sharp pang .
When Sienna said she would pay him , he thought she was refusing to accept his gesture .
But when she mentioned he bought it on a whim , he pictured himself holding her cheap headband , trying to find a similar one , and it felt downright foolish .
Whats more depressing than rejection ? Its her not sensing my intentions at all .
She never even thought I bought it specifically for her , Josiah thought bitterly .

What Josiah snapped back to reality , a flicker of pain crossing his eyes .
Well … Sienna reminded him , You still havent told me how much it is .
Josiah didnt answer .
Instead , he asked , Did it ever occur to you … But he didnt finish his sentence .
In his heart , he continued , That I specifically got the hairband just like yours for you ? Occur to me what ? Sienna blinked in confusion .
Nothing Josiah shook his head , his Adams apple bobbing prominently .
Then he casually tossed out a number , 60 dollars .
Sienna subconsciously nodded , then suddenly jerked in surprise .
What did you say ? She thought , Did he get it wrong ? Rosie said it should be at least 300 dollars ! Didnt catch that ? No , just that cheape Why are you asking so many questions ? Josiah frowned , looking somewhat impatient .
I bought it , didnt I ? If you want to transfer it , do it ; if not , then forget at I dont have time to argue about 60 dollars ! Aingha Sarana replied helplessly .
