What? Siennas heart raced, her eyes wide with disbelief.

The heatwave had been brutal, and for days, shed barely had an appetite.

Look, blood tests dont lie.

You are definitely pregnant.

Sienna opened the report, her heart thumping as she read the bold print, stamped with the words early pregnancy.

She abruptly shut her eyes gripping the paper tightly.

Thanks, doc.

Stepping outside the hospital, the scorching sun blared down on her, stinging her eyes and threatening to bring tears.

She closed her eyes, whispering to herself, What do I do now? Sienna and Josiah had been married for less than two months.

They hadnt spent much ttogether physically, and their few encounters had been rushed.

At first, she thought Josiah just wasnt into that sort of thing.

Truth be told, she wasnt a big fan either it always ended up hurting.

Now, the truth hit Sienna like a ton of bricks.

He wasnt against intimacy; he was just against being intimate with her.

Those few moments they had together were probably just for Mirandas sake.

But now she was pregnant of all times.

The shock was too much, and she couldnt think straight about what to do next, or even if she should keep the baby.

Sienna was only 20, too young for such a huge decision.

After hours of agonizing thoughts, she realized she had to talk to Josiah .

After all, he was the father.

Josiah was at the hospital.

To care for her, he had brought work into her hospital room.

Flynns ondes Chester replied, trying to keep his ne soothing.

Josiahs order? Is he worried I might cause trouble for Yvette, of he just afraid Yvette would be upset if she sees me? Sienna lowered her head, feeling defeated and hopeless.

She seed fragile, yet there was a stubborn streak in her.

Clenching her fists, she pleaded, I wont go in, but could you please tell him I need to see him? I have something really important to discuss.

After a quick glance at Chester, James nodded and headed inside to deliver the message to Josiah .

Not happening, Josiah replied coldly, his indifference evident.

With a sneer, he added, Tell her to stay away from the hospital room.

Durb Yvettes rest, Okay, Mr.

Flynn.

James headed back out and conveyed Josiahs words to Sienna.

Siennas face drained of color as she listened.

Her hands, clenched tightly, shook uncontrollably.

You need to leave, Mrs.

Flynn.

Ms.

Young could wake up at any moment.

It wouldnt be good if she sees you, James added.

Im leaving now, Sienna said, biting her lip so hard it drew blood, but she was oblivious to it.

As she stepped out of the surgical building, she hesitated she couldnt just walk away; tomorrow, she was flying out of the country.

In a foreign place, she wouldnt even know what to do.

So, she stood there waiting for Josiah, convinced he would cout eventually.

Flynn, Mrs.
