“A car under the Schmidt Group’s name? Interesting.”
When Axel looked at the investigation results, he recalled the face that resembled Alyssa’s. He narrowed his eyes slightly.
“Ms. Altman, who are you really working for? Josh? David? Or Jameson?”
Meanwhile, Silas forcefully brought Rose back to his house in Solana City.
Surprisingly, the second son of the Taylor family didn’t have his own villa in the city. He lived in a single-
story house with simple decorations, which was quite unexpected for Rose.
“You can stay in this room.”
Silas brought Rose to the door of a spacious room. “There’s a bathroom inside, and my pajamas are in the wardrobe. If you don’t mind, you can make do for one night.”
“Why are you so stubborn?” Rose sighed in frustration.
“Because you’re Lyse’s best friend. I can’t just leave you outside.”
“Madam-“
“Don’t worry, I won’t mention tonight’s events to Lyse. I don’t want her to worry any more than you do.”
“I won’t go back, and I won’t meet with them tomorrow either! Do you know that I was almost-” Rose choked down her sobs at this point.
There was a sudden silence on the other end.
After a while, there was a change in George’s attitude. His tone softened, but his words were more cutting.
“Rose, I know you’re in a difficult situation. But at the moment, our family is facing difficulties. As a daughter of the Emerson family, sacrificing a bit for the family is reasonable, isn’t it?
“Your sister is about to be engaged to the second son of the Dalton family in Northuis. She has sacrificed a lot for our family, too.”
Rose’s eyes turned crimson instantly as she asked word by word. “Did you know that those two men had evil intentions toward me from the beginning? Is that so?”
George remained silent.
“You knew everything and still let me meet them. Is this how you put your daughter in danger?” Rose cried out in anger and frustration, tears streaming down her face.
Silas didn’t catch all the words outside the door, but this sentence was crystal clear.
Combining it with the fragments he had heard earlier, he pieced together the whole story.
Instantly, his heart wrenched. He clenched his fists, and he was filled with anger.
What kind of devilish family was this? How could parents willingly let their daughters do such things?
No sound came from inside for a while.
Silas took a deep breath and lightly knocked on the door out of concern. But Rose didn’t give him any response. Worried, he pushed the door open.
“Rose?” His pupils suddenly contracted, and his whole body shivered.
He saw the fragile Rose lying unconscious on the floor.
Silas rushed forward to check her condition, quickly realizing that she was experiencing cardiac arrest.
Fear spread through his being
“Hold on, Rose!”
He vigorously compressed her chest for CPR, but she showed no response.
“Rose… Rose…”
Silas watched as Rose’s lips, like withering rose petals, gradually lost color and turned a faint shade of gray. Finally, he made up his mind, leaning in and kissing her deeply.
Their lips pressed tightly together as he continuously shared his breath with her. His heart raced in an unusual rhythm.
After so some time, Rose slowly opened her eyes. Subconsciously, she reached out her arms and hooked them around Silas’ neck.
Silas widened his eyes in surprise. He lost his balance and collapsed toward her.
She let a soft moan escape her lips.
Rose, with a misty and teary gaze, looked pitiful yet incredibly affectionate.
Inadvertently, she stirred something deep within Silas’ heart.
Her lips, now restored to a rosy hue, unfolded like flower petals dampened by morning dew. Slowly, she traced his lips with finesse and warmth.
At last, the tightly stretched line of Silas’ rationality snapped silently
With red eyes, he firmly held the back of her head, his breath growing heavier.
His warm tongue gently pried open her parted lips, capturing her sweetness, which was accompanied by a subtle hint of alcohol. It invaded his senses, reaching deep into his soul.
He didn’t know how tonight had turned into this, but one thing was certain-he didn’t want to part with her lips and didn’t want to stop.
Rose’s sudden cardiac arrest was no small matter. Silas took her to the hospital and notified Alyssa to come and visit.
He knew his little clot her brother.
little sister’s temperament. Keeping this a secret any longer would lead her to disown him as
Early the next morning. Alyssa and Sean rushed back from Belbanks to the hospital where Rose was hospitalized in Solana City.
“Silas, what happened? How could Rose have a heart attack?” Alyssa was in distress, tears swirling in her eyes.
“The doctor said Rose has a weak constitution and a heart condition, but it’s not too severe.”
A heart condition?
Alyssa shivered, and Sean hurriedly supported her trembling figure.
She felt awful for Rose.
Not only was Rose her apprentice, but she was also her best friend. Yet she didn’t even know about her physical condition.
What a disappointment she was in her role as a mentor!
Recalling Rose and her family’s phone call last night, Silas clenched his fists silently.
His voice was hoarse as he explained, ‘She had a sudden emotional outburst, leading to a heart attack.
Luckily, I was there. Otherwise, the consequences could have been disastrous.”
After taking Rose to the hospital last night, he called Alyssa, briefly explaining how they had met.
However, he hadn’t disclosed the conflict between Rose and her family.
“Emotional outburst? What happened?” Alyssa always liked to dig deep into the affairs of those around her.
In her eyes, Rose was always carefree, not taking anything too seriously. Why would she-
“Lyse, let’s wait for Rose to wake up and let her explain it to you herself.”
When Silas recalled the prolonged kiss, his cheeks involuntarily heated up, and his thoughts were somewhat distracted.
“Mr. Silas, were you with Ms. Emerson all night? Did you take her to your place?” Sean couldn’t help but ask curiously.
At his words, Alyssa’s gossip spirit was ignited,
After all, this was the first time Silas, who had been single for 30 years, brought a woman home.
Wasn’t he always allergic to women?
