Chapter 188 Years of Emotion
Miles‘ perspective truly surprised Silvia. However, they hadn’t known each other for long, and it was possible that Miles’s words were just a passing interest.
Surely, no one would pursue someone so recklessly, right? After all, they were all adults who considered the consequences before acting. Even Cyril’s decision to marry her had been made after careful consideration of pros and cons.
“All these things, including the trouble you might cause me, as you mentioned earlier, I just got out of your not–so–good emotional life. So, for a long time, I don’t want to get involved in any emotional entanglements. I appreciate your liking towards me, but… I can’t give you any response right now. I suggest you seriously reconsider your feelings for me. In the adult world, besides emotions, there are many other things to consider.”
Silvia looked earnestly at Miles. Over the years, she had learned a lesson: if she didn’t like someone, she shouldn’t give them any ideas. If a relationship needed to end, it should be cut off.
Miles paused for a moment, then smiled, “I thought you would sharply reject me from getting closer to you. But since you said that, I’ll definitely think about it. But if after thinking, my feelings for you are sincere, I won’t easily give up.”
Silvia nodded slightly. Since the words were spoken, and she believed a competent businessman like Miles knew what was beneficial for him.
Oh, yes, she almost forgot. Miles now knew her identity, so perhaps his actions were influenced by that. With their similar backgrounds, if they were to unite, it would be beneficial for both their companies.
In such a win–win situation, Miles pursuing her wasn’t surprising.
Thinking this, Silvia’s mood lightened. How could the adult world be so straightforward?
“Well, it’s about time. I’ll leave now. We’ll contact each other if there’s anything.”
After Silvia finished speaking, she headed towards the underground parking lot. She knew her friends were probably lurking nearby, so she needed to get to her car quickly. They knew each other so well; they couldn’t resist gossiping.
Sure enough, when she reached the parking lot, her friends emerged from somewhere and crowded around her.
“Tell us what happened. Forget about Cyril, what about you and Miles? What did you both say just now? And were you defending Miles just now? Weren’t you uninterested in him? Yet you were so close. Is that appropriate?” they bombarded her with questions.
“And Miles, he seems like a decent guy. You should consider him, but be careful. He just came out of a marriage, and he has a son. Think it through. Anyway, let’s not talk about this anymore. Do you want to go somewhere else for a drink?”
Their eyes sparkled with gossip, and though they spoke for her benefit, Silvia could see through their intentions. They just wanted to pry information out of her.
“Forget it. I have nothing to say to you two. You both have partners; what could come out of my mouth?”
Silvia crossed her arms, refusing to indulge their gossip. She didn’t want to talk anymore.
They exchanged a glance, sighing helplessly. What could they do? Silvia had learned to keep her mouth shut; their attempts to get information out of her were futile. “We just care about yourBelongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.
emotions over the years. How could you think of us like this?” they said, feigning innocence.
Silvia chuckled bitterly, finding their pathetic act amusing.
“It’s because of our years of friendship that I still don’t know what you two are thinking. Dream on,” she retorted.
In truth, even Silvia’s mind was a bit muddled. She couldn’t figure out the dynamics between them all, but there was no need to dwell on it too much.
She believed Miles’s interest in her was probably influenced by their backgrounds.
Realizing this, Silvia felt she didn’t need to discuss it further with her friends. Perhaps her previous pondering had been a waste of energy.
Since Silvia didn’t want to talk, her friends decided not to push it. Eventually, Silvia drove off, but her car was abruptly stopped.
Miranda spoke up, “Let’s go out together in a few days. I’ll send you the details.”
They had been busy lately, but if they had time to go out, Silvia wouldn’t reject the idea. After agreeing, Miranda let her go.
Kate looked puzzled, “When did we decide to go out? Why wasn’t I informed?”
“We just decided to go out. Don’t you think it’s a good idea to invite Miles after we go out? Silvia didn’t say much just now, but her expression was off. Miles must have said something. We need to figure out what’s going on,” Miranda explained seriously.
Although they were curious about what had transpired between Silvia and Miles, they didn’t want Silvia to repeat the mistakes of her past.
Understanding Miranda’s intentions, Kate had nothing more to say. She immediately took out her phone to search for a suitable place for relaxation.
But then came the question: “How do we invite Miles out?”
