Chapter 235 Love Was a Gamble
Unexpectedly, Silas especially-obediently followed her in. “Wait for me here!” Gianna turned her head
to cast him a look before turning around and entered the kitchen.
He stared at the woman longingly. She was wearing a white pajama, accentuating her tiny, slim waist.
Her every movement and expression were so lively, she was just right in front of him and was within his
reach He finally understood Alex’s joy of not wanting to be human-he now had the intention to turn into
a beast as well. Just looking at her made his imagination uncontrollably go wild. He shook his head. It’s
all that guy’s fault-he influenced me to have so much filthy thoughts in my mind! She made him a cup of
honey water in the kitchen and brought it over to him. “Drink this. It’ll make you sober up!”
He took the cup, but his gaze was fixed on her. His fervent gaze made her feel a little uncomfortable.
“What are you looking at? Drink up now!” He hummed in reply before gulping the whole cup of honey

gaze away first. With her head lowered, she kept quiet for a moment as she didn’t know what to say.
Silas, on the other hand, had so much to say, but his remaining reasons stopped him from saying
anything. Therefore, they looked at each other in silence for a while. The atmosphere was awkward.
Finally, Silas had no choice but to use his remaining rationality to instruct his body to stand up. “Go to
bed. I’m going back.” She subconsciously stopped him. “Aren’t you here to see South?” He nodded and
hummed a reply before turning around and headed toward South’s room. The little guy was rather
sound asleep; he was no longer in the curled-up position he was in yesterday. Today, he was bold and
unrestrained-his limbs were spread out, and the blanket, which was initially covering his body, was
kicked to a side. His delicate little mouth was pouted, while his breathing was shallow and regular.
Upon seeing him, Silas’s expression became gentle. He reached out his hand to stroke his little face.
“Looks like he’s recovered from the incident,” he quietly uttered. Gianna smiled and agreed. “Yeah. He
even consoled me today! He said that he had a dream, and in his dream, he took revenge on them!”
He smiled as well. “Our son is impressive!” She frowned. This wasn’t the first time she heard him
addressing South as his son-yesterday, when they were looking for the child, Silas called him ‘son’ as
well. She thought that his intention was to console her, but he called him ‘son’ again today. Therefore,
she looked at him and sternly corrected him. “It’s my son who is impressive!” Silas looked at her with
an obvious smug on his face. “Sooner or later, he will be my son too!” She looked at him, puzzled. She
was indeed slower to warm up to people, but she was aware of his kindness to her, and also his
sincerity and attentiveness toward her. She hadn’t had a boyfriend for so many years. The first reason
was because she hadn’t met anyone suitable. Besides, the other reason was because of South. She
was worried that the man would mind that she had a child or would mistreat her child, or perhaps South
wouldn’t like him. Therefore, due to all sorts of reasons, she had been alone all this while. She had
eliminated all the slightest possibilities that might harm her child! She couldn’t withstand any such

Last night, she saw it with her own eyes that he was as anxious as her when they were searching for
the child; he even took action on Alana to force an answer out of Kaylee. He was also worried that the
child couldn’t sleep properly, so he purposely stayed back to accompany him. Though his purpose here
tonight was not only to see the child, he must have had the two of them in his mind as well. Otherwise,
why would he stand at her door? A person’s eyes could never lie. He only had such a gentle gaze
when facing South and her. Love was a gamble-one would lose nine out of ten tries. She had always
been unperturbed by romance; knowing that she might lose, why would she still be attracted to love,
like a moth to a flame?
However, she felt depressed today, so she had a lot in her mind the moment she watched him leave.
