Chapter 444 Sharing the Same Room
Edward had never felt that there was any problem with the way Lara talked. But probably because of
what happened to Penny, he also felt that Lara’s tone was too aggressive, and it was indeed
commanding!
“You go first! I’ll stay for a while!” Because Lara didn’t hear the answer she thought he would give, she
was at loss for a long moment. Finally, she didn’t say anything and hung up the phone. Silas and the
others had been chatting until 11 PM. Gianna and South weren’t able to hold on and they lay on the
sofa drowsily. Knowing that they were tired, Ellen shooed them to sleep.
However, the villa on the island had only four rooms in total and there was no doubt that Brian and
Ellen would be occupying one room each. There were two rooms left for the three of them. If it were in
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthe past, it was natural that Gianna and South would share one. Nevertheless, South had already
checked out all the rooms earlier and he told Ellen that he wanted to sleep on his own. So, Silas and
Gianna had to stay together in the same room. Silas didn’t have any objections, but Gianna didn’t seem
to like the idea. When they were back at home, they had never shared a room. Why was it that she had
to sleep with him in the house of her future mother-in-law? People who didn’t know her would think that
she couldn’t keep her composure. Of course, she wasn’t someone like that! So, she kept herself awake
on the sofa but still couldn’t help falling asleep. “Let’s go to sleep. I think Gianna is already sleepy,” said
Ellen. Immediately, Gianna woke up. This wasn’t her house after all and hence she didn’t dare to sleep
too deeply. That was why she woke up the moment Ellen spoke. When she woke up, she tried to
explain, “It’s okay. I’m not sleepy.” But when her voice dropped, she started yawning. Looking at her
behavior, Silas was entertained but heartbroken at the same time. “All of us should go to bed now.
We’re leaving too.” As he said, he bent down, lifted Gianna away from the sofa, and walked toward the
room. Gianna was shocked at once. She murmured subconsciously, “Hey! Let me go!” Instead of
letting her go, Silas’s eyelids drooped and there was a teasing smile at the corner of his mouth. While
he was walking, he asked, “Are you shy?” “What do you think your mom would think when she sees
you holding me like that in front of her?” Gianna frowned. Silas whispered, “Mom would only be happy
for me.” “Just let go of me.” “Don’t move. Mom’s watching.” In her heart, Gianna thought, of course, I
know your mother is watching! If she isn’t, I would have kicked you already! She was so angry now but
she had nowhere to vent her anger out. So, she could only threaten him with her gaze. “Silas, how
could you be so shameless? What do you mean by we’re going to sleep now? You made it sound like
I’ve been sleeping with you all along!” Halting his movements, Silas thought for a while and said, “Didn’t
we sleep together before?” ‘Who slept with you?” Although her voice wasn’t loud, her expression was
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmfierce. “If we haven’t slept together before, how did our son appear?” chuckled Silas. Gianna was
speechless for a moment and she yelled, “You’re too much into character!” As soon as her voice
dropped, she heard Ellen’s voice. “Silas, why don’t you come sleep in my room. I can crash on the
sofa.” Silas frowned after he heard what his mother said. There was no way he would let his mother
sleep on the sofa and so he answered, “No. I’ll sleep on the sofa!” “No way. You guys must have been
very tired coming here by car and boat. There’s no way you can rest well.” Gianna pouted. She felt like
his mother’s words were clearly meant for her. She was originally thinking of kicking him out to the sofa
after he sent her back to the room. But how could she do that now? She took a deep breath and said to
Ellen, “It’s fine, Mrs. Nolan. You sleep in the room. Silas can sleep with me!” Finally getting the answer
she wanted, Ellen smiled. “Okay. Rest well, then. Good night!”
