Her quick and casual response only made Josiah feel more uneasy .
He grabbed her hand .

Sienna put a finger to her lips signaling him to be quiet This is a public place , dont speak so loudly or youll disturbs others .
I told you to go , didnt To stop any more arguments , she added , Im not upset .

You can go and take care of her : I want to watch this Could you please be reasonable ? Sienna was getting a bit annoyed .
You wont stay to watch it with me , and now youre not even letting me finish it on my own ? Tactually really like this movie .
She turned her head , refusing to look at him again or continue the discussion .
Josiah watched her for a few seconds before giving in .

At the door , he paused and sent Sienna a message : [ Sienna , if I can make it in time , Ill come to get you .
If you decide to head home first , call me .
] After sending the message .
he got no reply .
Assuming she was caught up in the movie , he sighed softly , deciding to wait until she finished ; she would see his message eventually .
Josiah left the cinema and rushed to the hospital .
When he arrived , he found Yvette already settled in her room , awake but looking weak and pale .
Josiah youre here .
Yvette leaned against the headboard .
Ive made you hurry around again , but theres really nothing wrong with me .
I just skipped lunch while rushing through filming , and Im feeling a bit weak from low blood sugar .
She pointed to the IV drip .
Two bags of fluids will fix that .
Then she scolded her agent and assistant .
Theyre always making a big fuss .
Theyre just worried about you , Josiah said , sitting beside her bed .
But I have to scold you a little .
Youre already so busy getting ready for the wedding , why are you still working so hard ? Yvette chuckled softly .
You talk as if its wrong for me to take my work seriously .
She glanced past him , her eyes showing a hint of disappointment .
Howard hasnt come , has he ! Even though Josiah had issues with Howard , he would never say anything negative about Howard .
I asked them not to tell Howard yet .
I wanted to check on you first so he wouldnt get too worried Oh , I see .
Yvette accepted his explanation .
