Chapter 100 Does Silas Like You?
The next day, Gianna took South to the studio with her. On the way, they were stuck in traffic.
The car had been in a complete standstill since forever, and honking sounds could be heard everywhere. There were cars that got in each other’s way, as well as cars that were supposed to move but were stationed instead, a bustling scene to behold.
All of a sudden, Gianna’s cell phone rang. Putting on the Bluetooth earphone on her ear, Kate’s voice sounded from the call. “Gianna, did I say anything embarrassing yesterday?” “I don’t think so,” said Gianna. “It was my first time having dinner with such a reputable person, so I was kind of nervous,” kate confessed.
“Nervous? Isn’t he human like you? With two eyes and a mouth!” “That’s not what I meant. The moment he sat down, I had difficulty breathing. I really don’t understand how you interact with him. That reminds me! I wanted to ask you since yesterday-does Silas like you?” Hearing that, Gianna’s heart skipped a beat. “Quit your nonsense! He has countless girls running after him, so why would he like me?”
Sitting in the back, South had heard what Gianna said, and he felt joy bubbled up inside of him. I guess I wasn’t the only one who thought that Daddy likes Mommy! “Can you explain why he helped us, then? And what about the house? If he doesn’t like you, why would he do so much for you?” questioned Kate. Anxious, Gianna explained, “What else? He just happened to be around us when that incident occurred. Isn’t it normal for a friend to help out? And about the house, he said it was to pay me for my consultation. I had been to the Nolan Residence several times, and he had never paid me a single cent. Do you think it’s that easy to seek for my consultation?”
“Fine! You’re good, and I simply cannot win against your silver tongue. Wanna bet?” “Are you that bored?” “Chicken!”
Crash-!
Before Gianna could reply, a car just cut in line in front of her, and she didn’t manage to brake in time, hence her car crashed into the car.
With that, Gianna noticed the car had just turned on its blinker. Slapping her forehead, Gianna said, “I’ll talk to you later. Something popped up.” Upon hanging up the call, she saw a man and a woman getting out of the car before her.
The woman was wearing a black skin-tight dress with a beige woolen overcoat. Knocking rudely on Gianna’s side window, she shouted, “Get down this instant! Can’t you see our car just now? Did you deliberately crash into us?”
Frowning, Gianna wasn’t pleased at all. Frankly, the damage on the car didn’t bother her much, for most importantly was that no one was badly hurt. Besides, considering it was such a close distance, there were probably just a few scratches on the car. By right, they should’ve turned on their blinkers if they had wished to cut in line. However, Gianna figured she shouldn’t have talked on the phone too, so she had to share the blame. Anyhow, it would be fair to just take matters into their own hands, but this woman was acting plain rude.
Getting out of her car, Gianna checked on the condition and realized there were indeed scratches on the left side of the
front car bumper. The car in front of her was a Mercedes-Benz, and it seemed to have received much more damage as the passenger door was dented.
The man didn’t say anything but was seen touching on the spot that was badly damaged. Refusing to back down, the woman jeered, “We just bought this car, and look at what you’ve done.”
Dumbfounded, Gianna arqued, “Well, my car is new too, and it was scratched. Besides, your car cut in line and didn’t even turn on the blinkers Why are you acting like it was all my fault?”
Behaving like a shrew, the woman pointed at the flashing blinkers and bellowed, “Are you blind? Can’t you see that the blinker is still on? You’re the one who was on the phone while driving! Don’t you know that it’s against the law?”
Extending a stop gesture, Gianna said, “Alright, let’s not argue. It’s not worth our time. Let’s call for the police and let them determine whether I had violated the law.”
