Caught In His Embrace: A Second Chance Romance

Chapter 216 After the examination, the obstetrician hesitated for a moment, looking at Sienna with a serious expression.

Mrs.

Flynn, Im very sorry... As these words left his lips, a chill enveloped Sienna.

It wasnt just her; Josiah, separated by a mere curtain, felt the same.

A dreadful thought surged through their minds their child was gone.

They hadnt been able to save their child.

Ignoring the hospitals rules, Josiah hurled the curtain aside and rushed in.

Mr.

Flynn, you cannot enter! Get out of my way! At that moment, no nurse could deter him no one, no matter how great, could stop him.

Sienna ! Josiah reached the bedside, enveloping her in an embrace .

His gaze turned to the obstetrician, filled with intense anger.

How can you call yourself a doctor? What kind of words did you utter to a pregnant woman? If my wife cannot handle this shock, what will you do to make up for it ? As he spoke, he held onto Sienna, quickly softening his tone.

Its alright.

Were still young.

We will have kids ....

There will be more.

Yet as he said this, his eyes revealed a glimmer of red, misting with tears.

Sienna saw it clearly, yet could hardly believe it.

She wondered if it was possible that the loss of their child weighed heavily on Josiah too.

Ugh... Sienna frowned and pressed her hand against her abdomen, the pain in her lower belly intensifying. This caused Josiahs fury to erupt.

What are you standing around for? Isnt there something to be done? If you couldnt save my child, at least take care of my wife! The surrounding doctors and nurses exchanged glances, hesitant to speak, collectively turning their gaze toward the obstetrician.

The obstetrician, taken aback, steeled herself to explain, Mr.

Flynn, please dont be agitated your wife is not actually pregnant ... What are you waiting for- Josiah, initially confused, paused for a second before realizing, his eyes widening in disbelief as he glanced between the doctor and Sienna.

Siennas reaction was more intense; she strained to rise.

Thats impossible ! She hadnt had her period, and moreover, she had taken a test.

Josiah quickly supported her, urging her to lean against him while questioning the doctor, Have you conducted a thorough examination? My wife wouldnt lie about this.

The doctor, drenched in cold sweat, remained composed.

After all, instances of false pregnancies were not unheard of in clinical settings.

She turned to Sienna.

Mrs.

Flynn, might I ask how you determined that you were pregnant? Sienna recounted her situation with a heavy heart, Could it be that the pregnancy test was inaccurate? Its possible, the doctor admitted, Though the likelihood is minimal, it cannot be entirely dismissed.

And your body may have sent misleading signals, perhaps due to ovulation stimulation medications ... Sienna stopped paying attention to the conversation, tightly clutching the bedsheet beneath her.

For she had indeed taken ovulation stimulants, hoping to conceive swiftly.

But she wouldnt have thought this would lead to false pregnancy signals.

The doctor continued, In fact, Mrs.

Flynn, the most accurate method remains a blood test.

Sienna closed her eyes, feeling utterly deflated, resting against Josiah and allowing him to hold her.

Though a comical blunder had occurred, Josiahs heart was finally at ease.

Gazing down at Sienna in his embrace, he asked, Is your shoulder still painful? Shall we consult an orthopedic doctor? Mm.

Sienna nodded weakly.

The obstetrician exited, and an orthopedic doctor entered.

After examining her, it was determined that her shoulder was dislocated, and the doctor promptly performed manipulation to reset it.

With her shoulder secured in a bandage, he advised, Mrs.

Flynn, it is not serious.

For the coming week, avoid any vigorous activities and be careful with your diet.

Both doctors prescribed medication and explained the dosage protocol before giving them clearance to leave.

While an assistant handled the discharge procedures, Josiah carried Sienna to the car.

1/2 Chapter 216 Throughout the ordeal, Sienna kept her eyes shut, uncertain how to face Josiah after such an unexpected turn of events.

Initially, she had thought that their connection would resolve with the child she carried.

Even though she had promised to return to him for Rosies sake, the current situation was vastly different .

The revelation that she wasnt pregnant meant they would remain enmeshed in their complicated relationship. Unprepared, both mentally and physically, for this reality, she felt overwhelmed.

Josiah, mistakenly interpreting her silence as mere embarrassment, tenderly brushed his fingers against her cheek.

Sienna, you know what? Im overjoyed.

At those words, Siennas eyes snapped open, confused by why he seemed so delighted.

As she studied his expression, she noticed joy radiating from the corners of his eyes and the arch of his brows he wasnt lying.

His fingers caressed her hair as his gaze lingered on Sienna, warm and intense.

Although the pregnancy was a misunderstanding, for you, it was real.

You meant to carry my child to term, didnt you? Sienna parted her lips, trying to find the right response.

He didnt need an answer; the truth was laid bare before them.

Josiah leaned in, embracing her.

Sienna, thank you, thank you.

Pregnancy is not an easy journey for a woman.

Beyond the arduous nine months, there are risks involved, and childbirth itself is perilous.

After giving birth, one must face aging, body changes, postpartum depression, and various other challenges.

He whispered in her ear, I cant believe you would endure all this for me, for our child.

Even if the pregnancy was a misunderstanding, her intentions were genuine.

He turned his face and kissed her cheek.

Sienna, thank you.

I will take care of you; I will not let you down.

As she was enveloped in his embrace, Sienna rendered speechless.

Compared to the false pregnancy, his heartfelt words stunned her even more.

She wondered if his words were sincere.

She was no longer concerned about whether he would betray her shel had long surpassed the phase of love En being paramount. She merely yearned to know if he genuinely accepted that they had a child together.

He need not love her; he only needed to love their child.

Sienna wanted to know if she could bring herself to trust him.

The assistant returned with the medication, handing it to Josiahn who then inquired, Should we go back to Silver Beach? With that, youll need care.

Living with someone who has a child can be risky what if something m happens? your shoulder like Fate had played a cruel joke on her. It was clear that she would have to remain entangled with Josiah .

Mm.

Sienna accepted her fate with a nod .

That night, Hervey brought good news to Howard.

We found the kid ![]
