Chapter 170 A Friend's Advice
"Why are you so excited?â âIsn't this something exciting? Silas Nolan-the bachelor who's the dream
of countless girls! If you're with him... Oh god, I will be hugging a treasure now,â Kate exclaimed in
exaggeration and even shook Camilaâs thigh. Camila was speechless, for she did not want to be
acquainted in any way with the comical lady. Kate continued her celebration for some time before
asking, âHey, why do you look sullen?â Camila gave her a cold stare and Kate smiled in
embarrassment. âI mean, that's good news, isn't it? Why do you look troubled?â
Camila pouted in good fun. âKate, you're disrupting my faith!â Her reply made Kate guffawed. âHah!
You don't have the faith to start with, but you're accusing me of disturbing your faith? Tell me, how
did you reply to him?â âI told him we're not suitable for each other.â Kate was surprised. âWait, you
rejected him?â âDo you think we make a good couple?â Camila glared at her. âOf course! Why aren't
you a good match? Look, heâs cool, and you're pretty. A match made in heavens!â
Camila was again at a loss for words. âI really don't want to talk to you anymore.â Kate breathed in
and said, âCamila, Silas is really a nice man. After so many years, I have not once heard a scandal
involving him in Summer City. This shows that he is a disciplined man. I won't go into his wealth,
power, and good looks. You should know that heâs the best in all aspects. Even if we only talk about
how he treats you... Do you recall how he took great care of you in the hospital? Last time, he even
rebuked Harriet Grant at the party for you...â When she saw that Camila wanted to retort, she
quickly added, âI know, I know that he just happened to be at the site. Anyone would have done it
for you, but Harriet is no average person. Even though she is no match for Silas, everyone has to be
courteous to her. But did you see him having any mercy on that day? Not many men would offend
someone influential just for you.â âBy the way, don't you think that you're fated? Although your first
few encounters were not exactly friendly, you have to put trust in your destiny. If not, why would
Landon turn out to be Silas's nephew, and why would you save Silas's grandpa? What do these
serendipities mean if not fate? You can argue with me as much as you want, but you cannot lie to
yourself. Camila, why don't you give it a try?â
Camila sighed at her friend's persuasion. âSilas is a good man, and that's the reason 1 can't burden
him.â âOnly you'll think like that. I bet Silas wants that burden on him badly.â Kate belatedly realized
that she had made a suggestive remark. Camila was tickled by her blank look and chuckled. âI
wonder how much Silas pays you for you to promote him with effort.â âYeah, right. I should talk to
him tomorrow.â âAbout what?â âI need to discuss my commission fee!â
âI was a little touched by your words before, but that feeling is gone after you made that
materialistic comment.â
âDonât! You need to feel touched. Look at me; my life's a mess, but I still take the time to worry
about your love life. How sacrificial of me!â Not knowing how to comfort Kate, Camila sank into
silence. Kate stared at her. âHey! Stop looking at me like that! I'd think that you're pitying me.â
Camila took a deep breath and intentionally barked at her friend, âWhat's to pity? Why would I pity
a woman like you who sells your friend out but still has a best friend like me around you? Get back
to your room and sleep now!â âCamila, my girl, I want you to chat and sleep beside me.â Kate went
up to grab Camilaâs arm, to which the latter shrugged away in a playful manner. âYou're getting over
the line!â
A few days later.
