Chapter 272 Chapter 272 You Neither Sienna nor Cedric broke the ice , but when they did , they spoke in unison .
Then they exclunged smiles .
You pobrs Cedric said , gesturing for Sienna to sprak .
Sienna nodded , peering at his expression .
Are you okay ? Dont be too sad .
She was referring to Reyna .
Yes , Cedne sand , forcing a smile I know In truth , he felt a bit embarrassed admitting he wasnt really sad .
If anything , he felt a sense of relief .
I was Xenia who had wanted him to be with Reyna .
He had only gone along with it because his mother had hugged him about it so much that he wanted her to just drop it already Logically , Cedric should have been angry that Reyna was two timing him .
But he wasnt , not even a little bit , because his feelings for her had always been shallow .
As a result , he didnt feel guilty .
As for sadness , the reason for his sadness was something entirely different .
Sienna Cedric whispered , his eyes welling up .
Tim sorry .
Im so Im so sorry Sienna was taken aback .
Her eyes were filled with shock .
She thought , Why is he saying sound like it ing this ? He came because of Reyna , didnt he ? But it doesnt ́s eyes were bloodshot , and he struggled to speak .
Sienna , I know everything Cedrics eyes wer He knows what ? Sienna thought , still confused .
That day … Cedric continued softly .
That day in Fliraty , you didnt do anything .
It was my mother .
She was the one who hurt you .
Oh ..
Sienna feh tears streaming down her face , blurring her vision .
She covered her mouth in disbelief .
Cedric knew .
He actually knew .
She had thought that this whole mess would fade away with time .
How did he find out ! Sienna Sering her eyes turning red .
Cedric felt his mind superimpose her image with the one he remembered That day , you must have terrified Yes , Sienna nodded , choking back sobs .
Even now , thinking back to that situation , she still felt a lingering fear .
Then , what about Josiah Cedric asked softly , wanting to know the entire course of events that day .
How did you two end up together ? At this point , there was nothing to hide .
Sienna wiped her eyes and told the truth .
That day , Josiah saved me .
He drove the man away I see .
Cedric suddenly understood .
It makes sense .
How else could Sienna have gotten away from a grown man ! he thought to himself .
One question lingered in Cedrics mind .
He frowned , feeling a lump in his throat as he finally asked , So , later , how did you and Josiah … you know … Sienna froze , her face stiffening She mumbled , Later I thought you said you knew everything I dont , Cedric said with unusual conviction .
I only know that at that time , you were willing to accept me .
Sienna turned her head away , refusing to look at him .
The more she did this , the clearer it became that something was wrong Sienna , please tell me , Cedric urged , turning to face her directly .
What happened ? I cant believe you would just change your mind like that .
She stayed silent , which left him to guess .
Did Josiah force you ? .
No Sienna abruptly looked up , cutting him off .
Actually , that day , he didnt do anything to to me .
I just couldnt move .

Couldnt move ! Cedric was stunned , his mind buzzing .
How could you not move ! Could it be … Did ΠΙ mother do something to you ? Sienna found it hard to explain .
Xenia was Cedrics biological mother .
Although her actions were terrible , Sienna believed she was doing it for Cedrics sake .
Sienna , say something .
I need to know the truth Seeing her struggle to speak , Cedric had a vague guess , but he wasnt sure .
You said you couldnt move 1/2 11:56 PM c d Chapter 272 Under what circumstances would a person not be able to move Did my mom get you drugged ? Siennas eyes widened , her lips slightly parted .
That looked like a yes to Cedric His heart jolted , and his pupils suddenly constricted .
He wasnt sure whether to cry or laugh .
So thats it .
It turns out to be like this He should have realized it sooner .
Before , Josiah had also been pestering Sienna , but Sienna had no intention of being with him .
In fact , she was scared of him .
But all of a sudden , Sienna changed her mind .
Cedric closed his eyes , filled with remorse and regret .
What was I doing at that time ? Im such a terrible person , he murmured to himself .
He couldnt help but think .
I failed to handle things at home and was clueless about what Mom was doing .
Besides , I was selfish and cowardly .
caring only about my own sadness without considering Siennas feelings .
Now that he understood everything , Cedrics voice was hoarse.
At that time , Josiah took advantage of your weakness .
Sienna was silent , which felt like a confirmation .
Cedrics heart felt like it was being sliced open as he absorbed the truth .
He raised his hand , hesitating for a moment before gently placing it on her shoulder Sienna , Im sorry , Im so sorry … He said it over and over again , even though he knew saying sorry wouldnt change anything now.
He looked down at her .
If he had persuaded his mother properly , he and Sienna wouldnt be like this now .
Sienna , Josiah , he- Cedric Sienna probably guessed what he was thinking and forced a smile .
Dont overthink it .
Im tine now .
Josiah and I … It was my own choice .
He didnt force me .
Cedric was skeptical , not sure if Sienna was just saying that to make him feel better .
But what Sienna didnt know was that he wouldnt be okay .
If the wasnt happy , he would never be happy either .
But since Sienna said so .
Cedric didnt refute it .
Instead , he squeezed out a smile .
Thats good .
As long as youre okay … thats all that matters .
Sienna smiled and nodded , You have to be happy too .
Sienna .
Cedrics voice cracked , his heart aching .
He bent down suddenly and hugged her tightly .
He sad .
Promise me if you are not happy , or if Josiah is not good to you , youll let me know .
We may not be lovers , but we are still friends .
Sienna blinked back tears and managed a reply .
Okay , Ill remember .
Neither of them noticed that steady footsteps were approaching .
At the door .
Yvette held her phone and spotted Josiah coming in .
She smiled and greeted him .
Hey Josiah , youre here : She had just sent him some photos she had taken .
Yeah , Josiah nodded slightly , his expression blank .
Yvette d didnt say anything else .
Instead , she pointed toward the lounge door .
You can g go in .
Il get back to work .
Okay , Josiah nodded again , stepping forward to open the door .
When he saw Cedric and Sienna hugging each other , both still in tears .
expression quickly turned cold .
Darkness clouded his eyes , as if a storm was brewing inside him .
He curled his lips and asked coldly .
What are you doing ? E AD his
