George would probably have regretted it if he had known that he was talking to Winstonâs second son, Alyssaâs second brother. He might even wish he were dead.
âYou donât need to talk so arrogantly here. If you dare to have any ideas about Rose again, youâll see me deal with you.â Silas tilted his jaw slightly, smirking coldly.
In terms of arrogance, who could be more arrogant than someone from the Taylor family?
âYou-âGeorge was furious. He roared, âWho the hell are you?â
Silas swallowed and somehow had the courage to put his hand around Roseâs slender shoulder, pulling her into his arms.
Caught off guard, Rose didnât dare to move, and her heart was in turmoil.
âIâm Roseâs boyfriend.â
After saying that, Silas directly hung up the phone, not giving George a chance to retort.
The ward suddenly became very quiet.
Both Silas and Rose remained silent.
âUh, donât get me wrong. I was caught up in the moment just now.â Silas quickly tried to cover for his unintentional words.
âI didnât misunderstand. And no matter how I see it, Iâm the one who gained.â Rose self-deprecatingly smiled.
She knew that Silas was standing up for her because of Alyssa.
She hadnât become so arrogant to think that the second son of the Taylor family would really care about her.
She wasnât delusional. Besides, her identity as the illegitimate daughter of the Emerson family was no longer a secret. Such a prestigious family as the Taylor family would never be interested in the Emerson family, let alone someone like her, an illegitimate daughter who couldnât be brought out in public.
Silas licked his dry lips, looking at her deeply. After hesitating for a while, he asked in a low voice. âLast nightâ¦weâ¦â
âThank you for last night. If it werenât for you saving me in time, I would probably be dead by now.â
Rosel sincerely thanked him.
âNo, I mean⦠we ⦠um.. Do you not remember at all?â Silas asked tentatively, feeling a bit anxious inside.
âWhat?â Rose looked at him with confusion.
At her response, he was at a loss for words.
It seemed she really didnât remember.
He suddenly felt that he was being taken advantage of âUh⦠Can you let go of me?â Rose gently pressed her lips together, feeling a bit embarrassed in his arms.
Silasâ heart was pounding, and he quickly released his hold on her Rose covered her chest and walked back to the bedside to sit down.
As he watched her slender figure, his heart tightened. He walked up to her and asked softly, âDo you want to eat something?â
âI want a mac and cheese cup.â Rose raised her eyes, meeting his eyes.
When she was in a bad mood, she always liked to comfort herself with a hot cup of mac and cheese.
âOkay, Iâll make it for you.â
Silas rolled up his sleeves, thinking that this girl was easy to please. She was mac and cheese.
âAnd⦠add a poached egg.â Rose grabbed his hand and added a small request.
Silas smiled tenderly at her. âSure, Iâll add two for you.â
