Chapter 305 How Many Days More, Gianna?

After taking a deep breath, Silas responded, “I’m not going to throw one because I’d rather not spend this precious time with you fighting and getting bitter with each other.” Gianna felt a lump in her throat when he said that because he always managed to make her feel bad and touched by his sweet gestures at the same time. Being Silas Nolan, he could have just ditched her for another woman instead of going through all these grievances. Trying to cheer him up, she then looked up at him with mischief in her eyes. “Do you have anything to say to your girlfriend?”

Every time Silas set his eyes on her, he couldn’t help but smile. In fact, he would prefer not to look so obviously smitten by her but the truth was, he just couldn’t stop his lips from curling upward into a smile no matter how hard he tried. He cleared his throat before he declared, “I want to kiss you!”

Gianna went speechless. He was pushing for his luck, wasn’t he? “I asked you whether you have anything to tell me, not whether there’s anything you want to do.” Silas beamed at her. “I will convey everything I want to say through my kiss.” Gianna rolled her eyes at him and snapped, “Can you please don’t be so greedy after just getting a hug from me?” Staring at her embarrassed but annoyed face, Silas was overjoyed. “My girlfriend, if a man says he likes you but he isn’t interested in kissing or hugging you, you should be worried.” Gianna had nothing to say as she wondered why she was even discussing this with him in the car. Just as she was left stumped, her wrist was grabbed tightly all of a sudden before a shadow moved swiftly over her and pressed his soft and warm lips on hers,

At that very moment, she resisted him out of instinct as she could feel the horrifying experience that had taken place on that night seven years ago come back to haunt her. Silas, who seemed to have sensed her nerves, toned down his aggressiveness and started kissing her gently. It was only then Gianna’s mind was pulled back to reality to realize Silas was the man in front of her. Slowly, her body became less stiff as her muscles slowly relaxed. After a long and passionate kiss, Silas withdrew himself and wrapped his arms tightly around her. “Gianna, I miss you so much!” She responded slightly breathlessly, “Am I not here with you?” The feeling of missing her although she was just right in front of him was beyond his ability to describe. Running his fingers through her hair, he asked, “Where are George and you going tomorrow?” “The destination hasn’t been fixed yet,” she said. Frowning at her answer, he doubted, “Are you not telling me because you’re worried that I might go to the same place to check on you?”

Holding his hands, she clarified, “Nope, it really hasn’t been decided because the plan has never existed in the first place. It was just an excuse I used so that George wouldn’t think that I was trying to chase him away. In fact, I’m still thinking if I should bring him to a hot spring. It would be nice in such cold weather.” Sounding like a battered soul, Silas asked, “How many days more, Gianna?” Gianna, who didn’t get what he meant, questioned, “What do you mean?” “When is your senior going to leave?”

he asked. She was guilt-stricken at the mention of that. “Silas, I think he’s going to stay for a few days more because he is in no rush to leave now that my master is back to take care of the clinic. So, I have no idea when he is leaving either.” Silas’s brows were knitted together as soon as he heard that.

Eyeing her in disbelief, he bleated, “Don’t tell me we have to date secretly forever.” Without saying anything, she stretched out both arms and wrapped them around his neck soothingly. “Silas, I’m not interested in George and I know this arrangement is unfair to you, but please give me some more time and I promise you I’ll sort this out.” Closing his eyes, Silas felt like venting out his frustration, confronting her for an answer and hauling her over to George to spill everything to him. However, what he actually did was stay meekly in her embrace like all his energy was sapped. He could do none of those things because he couldn’t afford to lose her! Looking at him apologetically, Gianna said, “Silas, I promise I’ll attend your grandfather’s birthday celebration with you, okay?” Silas did not utter a word in response as his buoyant mood came to an abrupt end.
