Chloe Nash couldn’t help but smile bitterly in her heart.
That man was the dream of her teenage years, a ray of light in her life, how could she not have loved him.
She rembered clearly, Silas Prescott had been developing a project during his university days, and hadn’t been ho for several weeks.
Sienna Paxton went to his school alone, just wanted to secretly see him.
But the campus was huge, she didn’t know where to find Silas Prescott, she wandered around several teaching buildings and finally saw his figure in a laboratory.
She was about to rush over to him when she saw a girl walk up to Silas Prescott.
Discussing project matters with him.
The two of them were engrossed in their discussion, completely unaware that soone was watching them at the door.
Sienna Paxton recognized who this girl was.
She was Silas Prescott’s rumored girlfriend in university.
The two were in the sa class, involved in the sa project, both remarkable talents in the field of computing.
Lucy Rhodes even said they were likely to go abroad for further studies together.
Witnessing this, Sienna Paxton quietly left the teaching building.
The sprout of her unrequited love was slowly crushed, the pain of which only she knew.
She walked alone in the drizzle-strewn campus, as if even the heavens were mocking her, how ridiculous her affection was.
She lost her way in the campus, unable to find the exit she had co from after a long ti.
She didn’t know whether the drops on her face were rain or tears.
Just as she was at a loss, suddenly she heard Silas Prescott’s voice behind her.
"Sienna."
Upon hearing this voice, Sienna Paxton quickly turned around, and saw Silas Prescott standing not far away holding a black umbrella.
The man’s deep and fathomless black eyes were filled with anxiety and concern.
Silas Prescott took quick steps to her, sheltering her body with the umbrella, gently stroked her wet head, and softly asked, "Why didn’t you call when you ca to see , Sis?"
Facing his gentle gaze, the snipped sprout of Sienna Paxton’s unrequited love broke through the soil once again.
She looked at Silas Prescott in tears: "I-I couldn’t find you."
Silas Prescott took off his coat and put it on her, then took out a handkerchief to help her wipe the droplets from her hair.
With a gentle tone he said, "Is it that you couldn’t find , or did you not want to see ? Sienna, don’t lie."
The two stood under one umbrella, making the space seem small.
Sienna Paxton could even see the fuzz on Silas Prescott’s face.
Her nervous lashes trembled: "I saw you were busy, so I didn’t want to disturb."
Hearing her explanation, Silas Prescott chuckled.
He didn’t expose her little thoughts, and instead softly said to her: "That girl is the professor’s daughter, working on research with , we are just classmates, now and will be in the future, do you understand?"
Sienna Paxton was surprised, why would Silas Prescott explain this to her.
She bit her lip tightly, her clear and bright eyes looking at Silas Prescott.
"Brother, she’s so outstanding, why don’t you like her?"
Silas Prescott smiled and rubbed her head: "Not liking is just not liking, there’s no why. Co on, I’ll take you ho."
"I can do it myself, you go on with your work."
Silas Prescott put his arm around her shoulder, laughingly said: "If I don’t go ho now, I’m afraid the person who misses there will cry."
"I didn’t."
"So you admit you missed , Sis?"
Sienna Paxton imdiately covered her mouth, shook her head denying vehently.
Silas Prescott tapped her head lightly: "You little ingrate, I’m so good to you, yet you never say you miss ."
The two chatted and laughed their way ho.
Since then, the sprout of Sienna Paxton’s unrequited love only grew more uncontrollably.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have admitted it as soon as Silas Prescott asked her.
Recalling these things, Chloe Nash felt so hatred towards herself.
If she could have hidden her little thoughts, she and Silas Prescott wouldn’t have reached this point.
Facing Silas Prescott’s question, Chloe Nash didn’t know how to respond.
If she said she loved, would Silas Prescott continue to persist with Sienna Paxton.
If she said she never loved, she feared hurting Silas Prescott’s feelings.
She calmly said: "Love or not, it’s all in the past, no one can live in the past forever, we must face the future."
Silas Prescott’s eyes burned as he looked at her: "But I’ve always lived in the past, only when my Sienna returns to can she pull out of this quagmire of the past. Do you think she’d co back knowing how much I’m suffering?"
Facing Silas Prescott’s probing, Chloe Nash was at a loss.
She didn’t even know what Silas Prescott’s purpose was in asking her these questions.
Had he discovered sothing, or was it just casual conversation.
Nervously she clenched her fingers: "I don’t know if she’d co back, but I know people need to wake up promptly, and be content with everything, letting go of obsessions is growth, you and Sienna might just be passing travelers in ti, it’s unnecessary to cling on."
Having said that, she stood up and left.
She didn’t know that after she left, Silas Prescott let out a sinister laugh.
"Sienna, you’re not just a passing traveler to , you’re my destiny."
The two walked out of the bedroom one after the other, just as Caden Sinclair ca in.
He waved at Chloe Nash: "Look what I’ve bought you to eat."
Chloe Nash sniffed and walked over with a smile: "Deep-fried stinky tofu, how did you know I wanted this."
"I’m like the parasite in your stomach, there’s nothing you want to eat that I don’t know."
He handed the deep-fried stinky tofu to Chloe Nash, softly reminding her: "Just out of the pot, be careful, it’s hot."
Watching the two interact so naturally, Silas Prescott’s jealousy flared wildly in his eyes.
Yet his face remained calm as water.
He eagerly walked over, found a pair of disposable slippers for Caden Sinclair, ’politely’ saying: "No slippers at ho, wear these, they’re brand new, prepared especially for guests."
This one sentence clearly defined the identities of him and Caden Sinclair.
He was the host, Caden Sinclair was the guest.
Hearing this, Caden Sinclair didn’t get angry, he actually smiled and said: "No worries, I’ve got so at ho, I’ll go get them later, after all, I live right across the hall."
The smug expression Silas Prescott had just monts ago instantly froze upon hearing this.
He looked at Chloe Nash with so confusion: "Why does he live across from you?"
Chloe Nash calmly replied: "He’s staying here for two months, and hotels are too expensive, so when the unit across from went up for rent, I rented it for him."
Caden Sinclair deliberately teased him: "Don’t ntion it, living across is convenient, eating the dishes Uncle makes every day, it’s simply blissful, I don’t even want to leave."
Silas Prescott gritted his back teeth, yet his face remained serene.
He glanced at Chloe Nash and said, "Stray dogs are like that, find good food and they don’t want to move, I bought a lot today, make sure to feed him well."
Hearing that, Caden Sinclair stomped his foot angrily: "Silas Prescott, who are you calling a stray dog."
Silas Prescott chuckled: "I said stray dogs, why are you barking, are you one too?"
