Chapter 269: It's Snowing
As they were leaving the gathering, they noticed snowflakes falling from the sky. It was then they realized that winter had arrived earlier than expected.
"Snow this early in the year? Let's hurry back home; it's getting really cold."
Kate, who had worn a coat for style, was now feeling the chill and suggested they leave. The others agreed, feeling the cold too. They were about to ask Silvia if she wanted to walk together when they noticed a familiar car approaching. It stopped in front of them, and Miles stepped out.
It had been a while since they last saw Miles, and they wondered what he had been up to lately.
They exchanged glances with Silvia, understanding that Miles had something to discuss with her. Silvia had her own thoughts to share with Miles too. "You guys go ahead; Miles and I have something to talk about."
Silvia's words made the others realize they should leave. After bidding Silvia goodbye, they departed. Once they were gone, Miles spoke to Silvia, "I'll drive you home."
Silvia didn't refuse and got into the car. With the heater on, she didn't feel the cold at all.
"Are you okay after what happened? I heard about it and was worried."
Despite having his own motives, Miles was generally a good person. Silvia knew this and understood his intentions. Besides, she didn't see anything wrong with Miles having ulterior motives; after all, everyone looks out for themselves. She herself had initially had intentions toward him.
"I'm fine. My brothers just worry too much about me and don't want me to go anywhere. But I'm not as weak as they think." "That's good. I wanted to ask if you'd like to watch the fireworks together since it's snowing today."
Silvia hadn't seen Miles around lately and had thought he had given up. His persistence made her want to laugh. Sometimes Miles's actions were quite amusing.Content © NôvelDrama.Org.
"I thought after our last conversation, you wouldn't come looking for me again. Some people lose face after a scare and never come back." "Although I initially had intentions towards you, after spending time together, I think being family wouldn't be so bad. Plus, my son really likes you." Miles spoke sincerely, and Silvia didn't reply.
Silvia's silence didn't surprise Miles; if she had replied, it would have been more surprising.
After dropping Silvia off at home, Miles didn't rush to leave.
"Do you have something else to say?"
Silvia looked at Miles, not understanding what else he had to discuss.
"My son's birthday is coming up in a few days, and I'd like you to accompany us."
Silvia paused for a moment,
surprised that it was for this reason. It wasn't a big deal, so she agreed. Seeing Silvia agree, Miles breathed a sigh of relief.
He had been worried because Silvia had refused last time, but her agreement now was a relief.
Back at home, Silvia saw her brothers and father standing by the window, staring at her.
She was startled and couldn't understand what her three brothers and father were thinking.
"What are you all doing? You've been standing at the door for so long, why
didn't you come in? If you want to
talk to
to him, why not invite him in?
You can talk inside; isn't that better?"
Hearing Silvia's words, her family was wide-eyed. They hadn't expected Silvia to say something like this.
"If you're just going to stand here
and talk, why bother? If you wanted to talk to him, you should have invited him in earlier. You stood here for so long, and now that everyone's gone, you're talking to me. When did you become so overbearing at home?"
The three brothers were taken aback by Silvia's words. They hadn't expected her to speak like this.
"We didn't know what to say since you and he were having a conversation. Wasn't it better for us to wait and see?"
Her eldest brother's explanation made Silvia roll her eyes.
"What's done is done. You've already discussed everything before. Is there any need to bring it up now? I'm speechless at how you're acting."
With her father speaking up, the three brothers didn't say anything further. However, they each held their own thoughts, planning to deal with Miles
later.
