I Stopped Loving Him When He Let Me Bleed Out novel Chapter 354

"Just stick to being a good ex-boyfriend and mind your own business."

The moment she finished speaking, her phone rang again.

This time, Silas was calling directly.

Sienna hesitated for a second before answering.

"You're not at the hospital. Where are you?" Silas's voice came through the speaker. "Do you need me to come pick you up?"

Sienna looked at Finn sitting across from her.

His gaze was still anchored to her face, unwavering.

"Okay," she said. "Come get me. I'm at The Eastside District. I'll wait for you."

She hung up and dropped the phone into her purse.

She stood up.

Finn shifted a step, deliberately blocking her path.

His hand was still gripping the glass serving pitcher, his knuckles white from the pressure.

His eyes had changed. The light inside them had sunk, like a deep pool violently churned, dragging the mud and silt to the surface until everything was opaque.

"Is Silas really that clingy? When I was your boyfriend, I certainly wasn't this controlling."

Sienna purposefully provoked him.

"And that is exactly why you're an ex-boyfriend."

The light in Finn's eyes shattered completely.

"Are you serious? You're actually going to keep dating him? Even knowing what he..."

"I said, mind your own business. What I choose to do has absolutely nothing to do with you."

Sienna shoved past him and walked straight out the door.

Finn remained rooted to the spot, staring at the two cups of cold tea on the table.

The cup he had poured for Sienna remained entirely untouched.

-

An hour later, downstairs, a black Maybach idled by the curb.

Silas stepped out of the car and stood by the door.

Seeing Sienna, the corners of his lips curved upward. He reached out and gently tucked a stray strand of windblown hair behind her ear, his touch incredibly light.

Once inside the car, Silas drove Sienna to a high-end Western restaurant in the financial district.

When the food arrived, Sienna didn't touch her silverware.

"Not to your liking?" Silas asked.
