Chapter 344 Bottom Line

Silas's brows knitted together, which surprised him. With George's departure, he could calmly listen to her talk about him, but a feeling of irritability still swept across him. He looked at her in disbelief.

"Gianna, I can understand your feelings for your senior. It's the type that surpasses that of family, or even the feelings you have for me, your boyfriend. I shouldn't have forced you to give me an answer, and I have just learned the reason why you gave such a promise. To be honest, I'm also feeling really grateful to your senior right now, and I'm willing to repay him. But when the two of you made the promise, did you agree on a limit? If he really prohibits you from being with me, would you really listen to him?"

Gianna looked at him and anxiously explained, "George won't make such a request! No one wants me to be happy more than him!" Silas frowned and said, "Doesn't this still depend on his mood? If he is upset and prevents you from being with me, doesn't that mean you'll have to break up with me? He didn't make any request of you because he's noble; does that mean I have to be grateful to him for allowing us to be together? Gianna, don't you care that whether or not we can be together can be decided by him?" Gianna looked at him. After inhaling and exhaling deeply several times, she said, "I do care! If I didn't care, I wouldn't have asked you to hide, and I wouldn't have told you so much today. Silas, I won't ever be as innocent and carefree as other women. I am filled with complications. Not only do I have a child with me, but there's also George. You still have time to get away if you regret this, otherwise, don't want you to be complaining about it in the future." Silas was choked with anger when he heard this and looked at her with hurt in his eyes. "What's with this? Are you thinking of breaking up with me again?" Gianna turned her head to the side and ignored him. Silas sighed deeply, feeling somewhat helpless. When it came to her, he just couldn't stay calm.

He didn't want to quarrel with her when he was supposed to be affectionate with her, but how could he accept such an agreement?

Didn't this amount to relying on others for charity?

He had understood that one must hold the initiative in one's own hands ever since he was a child.

But now, whether or not his girlfriend was his didn't depend on him nor his girlfriend. Instead, it depended on an outsider. What the heck was with this? But..

Like she said, he was the one asking for it for liking her. Speaking of which, wasn't he the cause of all of this?

If it hadn't been for him bullying her by mistake, she wouldn't have been forced to leave her hometown, and she wouldn't have suffered so much and owed George a debt she couldn't repay. She didn't want a boyfriend initially, but he kept persisting, pestering her to be his girlfriend. Now that he had gotten her, was he going to give her up just because of the issue with George? Silas rubbed his eyebrows fiercely. He had been too impulsive and he shouldn't have forced her like that. It wasn't like this was an easy choice for her to make! After a long internal debate, he reached out and pulled her into his arms. "Gianna, let's not argue. We can solve any problems we face. I got anxious when I heard that I might lose you. Look, this is my first time dating someone. I'm inexperienced with stuff like this, so please don't be angry." Gianna's eyes suddenly watered and she glared at him. "You talk as if I'm very experienced!" "Yes, we are both failures in this department," Silas replied. "We need to examine ourselves. I can't hold my temper when I face matters regarding you. This is because I care too much about you and worry about losing you. I don't know a good way to express it." "I also didn't explain myself clearly enough. Actually, George must have been aware of us this time, which was why he left in such a hurry. Although he won't be able to accept it at the moment, he will accept it sooner or later. I made it clear to him that I don't like him and only think of him as family. In fact, my purpose of telling you all this is to make you understand my feelings for George and I didn't want you to think that I'm partial to him. If I have wronged you, I can repay you but I can't ever repay George. I will agree to anything he asks of me so long as it doesn't cross my bottom line, and my bottom line is... that I can't be separated from you!"
