At exactly 7:00 pm, after the business conference, all the big shots and elite figures of Solana City rushed to Berenike Hotel to attend the cocktail party.
Alyssa sped in her black Bugatti, with Julien tightly gripping the door handle on the passenger side. He stared straight ahead, not daring to say a word throughout the journey.
He was afraid that saying too much would make him throw up last nightâs dinner.
Finally, when they arrived at the hotel, Alyssa executed a beautiful and precise drift, smoothly parking in the designated spot.
âGet out.â Alyssa unbuckled her seatbelt Julien didnât move. His face was as pale as paper.
Noticing no response from him, Alyssa blinked and waved her hand in front of him. âHey, whatâs wrong?
Petrified?â
âI⦠want⦠to⦠vomit.â Julienâs face turned purple, and he was not doing well at all. 1 Alyssa yelled, directly kicking him out of the car. âIf you need to vomit, do it outside, not in my car!â
The moment the car door opened, Julien started throwing up.
Even though he was a son from a scholarly family, this was the first time he had been so lacking in manners and vomited so unceremoniously.
Fortunately. Jonah wasnât present. Otherwise, he might have given up on life.
After Julien finished vomiting, he weakly leaned against the car door. Panting, he glared at Alyssa. âYou Taylors are all insane! Do you think the car is an airplane?â
âYouâre quite a big man, yet youâre carsick Alyssa folded her arms, shaking her head. âMy driving skills are at a racing level. Itâs very stable. If you canât adapt, thatâs definitely your problern.â
Saying that, she handed him a bottle of water, showing a bit of consideration.
Julien rinsed his mouth with water. It took him quite a while to recover.
âHey, donât forget what you promised me.
âI wonât.â
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.
Silas rolled up his sleeves, thinking that this girl was easy to please. She was satisfied with just a cup of 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
