Chapter 99 An Amusing News
With a grin, Silas said, “You’re most welcome. They chose to cooperate with your
magazine publisher simply because they think there’s potential in helping them to
generate more sales, which is basically a win-win collaboration for both, so don’t mention
it.” Hearing that, Kate was so touched and even had the sudden urge to sell off Gianna.
“Thank you for all that you’ve done. In the future, if there’s anything that requires our
help, please don’t hesitate to ask. Gianna is very capable! She’s nice and has such a
pleasant personality. It’s simply a great blessing to be friends with her!” Picking up a
fishball, Gianna threw it into Kate’s bowl. “Eat up!” she ordered, hinting her to keep her
mouth shut. “Exactly, you’ve gotta keep a low profile. Don’t go overboard,” ridiculed
Landon. Picking up another prawn ball, Gianna dumped it into Landon’s bowl and warned,
“Shut up and eat up too!” These two just wouldn’t quit embarrassing me… With the corner
of his mouth curved up, Silas really enjoyed the free and unrestrained atmosphere. “I’m

said, “Then I guess all of you have to treat me better. Otherwise, I’ll take back all the
blessings!” Being nomophobic, Kate was browsing on her phone when all of a sudden, she
burst out laughing while taking a peek at Silas. “What are you laughing at?” Landon
asked. “Take a look at this.” Kate passed her phone to Landon, and he laughed like a drain
too. Glaring at them, Gianna complained, “Why are you two laughing among yourselves?
Sharing is caring!” “Two naked men were tied by the Jordan Bridge and were seen freezing
in the cold throughout the night. Oh my, I’m about to die laughing!” Landon guffawed as
he wiped the tears off his eyes. Laughing along, Kate jested, “Aren’t they afraid that it will
cause an accident? Since the drivers will be busy checking them out instead of paying
attention on the road.” Rolling her eyes at them, Gianna said, “What’s so funny about
that?” Throughout the conversation, Silas didn’t utter a word. He was busy eating, as
though the news mentioned had got nothing to do with him. When the dinner was coming
to an end, everyone was a little tipsy. Both Landon and Kate couldn’t hold their drink. After
drinking a couple of rounds, both of them had reached their limits. If Silas hadn’t been
around, they would’ve probably been having a live concert and singing their hearts out
already. Silas was better at handling alcohol, but he gradually felt a little tipsy too. If
compared with Gianna, he was no match at all. Noticing the light flashed on his cell phone,
Silas knew Xavier had arrived. Getting up from his seat, he said, “It’s late, so I’ll make a
move now. Drop me a call if there’s anything.” “Alright,” Gianna replied politely and didn’t
stop him from leaving. Trying to stay sober, Landon and Kate got up to send Silas off and,
later, took their leave too. Upon sending them off, Gianna ushered South the sleepyhead
into his room and got out to clean up the table. After spending an hour clearing up the
whole mess, Gianna went into her room. While browsing on her phone, she read the news
which Kate had mentioned about the two men.
It was a 10 seconds video, and the image quality was rather clear. At first sight, Gianna
could recognize that it was the exact two men who came to her house with Robin-the men
with bad intentions.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIf she didn’t know it was the both of them, she would have thought there was nothing
amusing about this news.
Somehow, she had a gut feeling that it was Silas’s doings. Initially, when Silas handed
Robin over to Aleena today as a warning, she was puzzled for a moment because she
didn’t see the other two men with him. Quelle surprise! They were on the bridge. Silas did
not spare anyone. Gianna couldn’t find words to describe her current feelings. After
returning here for some time, he did have some misconceptions about her character, but
putting that aside, he seemned to be helping her all the time–from solving the kid’s
fighting issues to yesterday night’s ceremony, as well as defending her from Robin. She
knew very well that his intention was to repay the kindness, all because she had saved his
grandpa. Hence, he made every effort to help her. Frankly speaking, she was really
touched by all he had done.
