Chapter 84 Crash and Burn
Serenity nodded with a smile. Then, she sat down a fair distance away from them with her lute in herarms. In no time, the crisp and sweet strains of music floated in the room. Meanwhile, the otherladies exclaimed jokingly, “Don't purify yourself, Mr. Road! We love you as you are.”
Chuckling, Alex remarked, “That makes sense. Mr. Nolan here is chaste, so I'm your only hope. Howdoes the saying go again? If I don't sacrifice myself for the greater good, who will?" “Pfft...” Theladies giggled, while Silas shot him an affronted glare. “You should have a care lest I throw up atthat gross remark!”
Unfazed, Alex leaned close to him with curiosity written all over his face. “So, what exactlyhappened? I heard that you even crushed Harriet Grant? Isn't there a collaboration between GrantGroup and Nolan Group?” Downing his glass of wine, Silas replied with utter distaste, “She can'tmanage her brother well, so I kindly helped her out!”
"Her target was Camila Brooklyn, so what has it got to do with you?” Alex asked in feignedbafflement, craftiness concealed in his eyes. “Could I have just ignored it when she was right besideme?” Silas retorted. Alex arched an eyebrow even as he smirked slyly. “Really? Do you just like herthat much?”
Cutting him a glare, Silas stubbornly declared, "What that man did was practically slapping meacross the face right before me, so I just didn't like him. What has it got to do with liking her?”
Alex curled his lips and exclaimed, “Cut that crap! Did you think I don’t know you? When have you,Silas Nolan, ever loved poking your nose into someone else's affairs?” “He just had to come andseek death, so what could I do?” Silas shot back. Alex exchanged a look with Hayden. “You're sureyou don't like her?” “He can't admit it even if he does. After all, Silas is the kind of person who'sused to being pursued.” After snubbing out his cigarette in the ashtray, Silas demanded with adisdainful look, “Do you two even know what liking someone means?” The two of them shared alook before they burst out laughing. “Indeed, we've never saved any damsel in distress, unlike you.”“Let me ask you this-what were you thinking back then?” Alex asked. “Nothing,” Silas answeredperfunctorily.
Alex's expression turned knowing. “That's it. It's game over for you. It's exactly such subconsciousaction that's most terrifying! It seems like you've been taken down without you even having realizedit.” Silas was rendered speechless for the very first time. Actually, he was thinking at that time. Whenhe heard that the man wanted Camila to sleep with him, his only thought was to kill that man.Perhaps it was because they'd been teasing him, but he abruptly recalled the time when he saw herduring the grand competition. I was truly happy back then, delighted even. Could it be that... I havereally developed feelings for her? The next day, Camila was in the studio, keeping an eye on thingssince the renovation was about to be done when she suddenly received a call from Silas justmoments after she'd arrived, asking her to go over to Ruby Palace. While he didn't specify thereason, she knew that he wasn't the kind of person who'd ask her out for no reason, so she readilyagreed and drove over to Ruby Palace right away. Since she'd been here once, she was familiar withthe place. The moment she went in, she noticed a huge crowd gathered in the lobby. As she waswondering what was happening, she heard a woman's furious bellow. “Ben Roberts, what do youtake me for? A back-up lover? Aren't you on a business trip?” Stifling his anger, the man proclaimed,“I just came back, okay? She's just a client, so you don't need to get all suspicious.” After taking twosteps further, Camila caught sight of the person who was speaking at a single glance. The man wascasually dressed in black, his expression as dark as charcoal. On the other hand, the woman waswearing a red dress, her face brimming with profound ire. Meanwhile, the woman standing besidethe man was Lyla. Recognition dawned upon her. Aren't these two people the couple I bumped intowhen I bought a car? Ben Roberts and Jessica Smith. Huh? Are they crashing now? inexorable joyinundated her. I just knew that they're going to crash and burn sooner or later. She then squeezedfurther to the front. Her face bright red with fury, Jessica sneered. “A client? Ben Roberts, I'm trulyimpressed that you managed to cook up such an absurd lie! Which part of her screams client?”
