Chapter 87 Unexpected Guest

Jessica was worried, “You shouldn’t have gotten on their bad side for me. Ben is a petty man.”

That didn’t faze Gianna. “Well, I’m not easy prey either.”

Jessica smiled. “Thank you for what you did, or I would have been humiliated.”

Gianna returned a smile. “It’s fine. I despise jerks like that, especially abusive ones.”

“Did we… meet somewhere before?” Jessica stared at her, “Yeah, at the 4S shop. We bought the same car.” Gianna smiled.

This surprised Jessica. “Oh, I remember you! I was thinking you looked familiar.”

“Gianna.”

“Jessica.”

“I know. My friend told me. You should treat your face. It’s swollen.” A moment later, Silas called her, and that reminded Gianna of her appointment. Whoops, the show’s fun, but no time to waste now.

Jessica had a lot to ask, but Gianna had no time to answer. “I have something to do, so until next time!”

Then, she went upstairs.

After coming to the VIP room of the appointment, she took a deep breath to calm herself down before entering. The first thing she saw was Silas. He was sitting in the center, and today he donned a black shirt. His face was inscrutable, and he was slowly enjoying his cup of tea.

A woman was sitting two seats away, and she was none other than Aleena. Aleena was wearing a lavender dress, her hair tied in a bun. She looked languidly sexy and obviously dolled up. When she saw Gianna, Aleena looked surprised, apparently wasn’t expecting her.

Gianna was equally perplexed, but she greeted, “Hello, Mr. Nolan, Miss Jones.”

“Have a seat.”

Gianna took her seat two spaces away from Silas. He then poured a cup of tea for her, much to Gianna’s surprise. “Thank you, but please, let me.”

“Stuck in the traffic?” Silas asked. He had even given her an excuse,

Yeah right, Gianna thought. I was watching a car crash. Even so, she mumbled, “Yes.”

Meanwhile, Aleena looked on with jealousy, and her anger Mared. “What is the meaning of this, Silas?”

She held her fury down Aleena thought Silas was treating her to a meal with just the two of them because he ignored her last night, so she felt delighted. She had been waiting for him to talk, but even after an hour, he said nothing. Even when she tried to start a conversation, he would kill it in a second.

Aleena told herself that Silas could give her this attitude because of his status. Treating me to a meal is already proof that I’m important to him, so if he doesn’t want to talk, I’ll do it. But he invited Gianna, too? Was everything I imagined just that? My imagination? Was I being full of mysell? Humiliation and her scarred pride made her tear up.

Silas looked at her. If he looked closer, he would have noticed the tears in her eyes, but he didn’t. All he did was take a glance and remarked, “Why? Can’t invite anyone else just because I invited you?”

Aleena took a deep breath. “I don’t think there’s anything worth talking about if it’s the three of us here.”

Silas glanced at her “We’ll see about that in a moment.”
