Chapter 1544
Harper hadn’t had a chance to refuse when Griffon had already sent her the address.
“Could you do me a favor?” Griffon put away his phone, said ‘thanks,’ and then got into the car.
Looking at the luxury car speeding away, Harper stared at the address on her phone, standing still.
Inside the car, Edith saw Harper hesitating and locked the car before rolling down the window.
“Why don’t you go pick up my brother? Taya and I will go see Silas.”
“But…”
Before Harper finished speaking, Edith stepped on the gas and drove off.
These two siblings, they never even let people finish their
sentences.
Watching the two luxury cars speeding away, Harper, who didn’t have a car in the capital, stomped her foot in anger…
“At least drop me off at the subway station!”
By the time Edith realized this and turned back, Harper was nowhere to be seen.
Taya messaged her, asking where she was, and Harper quickly replied with an angry emoji, ignoring them afterwards.
“Great, I’ve offended my future sister-in-law.”
Taya put down her phone and turned to Edith.
“How do you know Harper is your future sister-in-law?”
Edith, who was beautiful and glamorous, glanced at Taya through the rearview mirror.
“Women’s intuition.”
Resting her elbow on the car window and supporting her chin with her palm, Taya started to ponder.
Harper was her sister. If Harper mated Preston, what should
Griffon call Preston?
Lost in thought, the car quickly stopped at Sila s’s villa.
Silas was still sitting in the flower garden, waiting for Taya’s arrival.
When he saw Edith accompanying her, his expression stiffened
slightly.
Unfazed, he led the two inside the living room and called Nora to make coffee and serve dessert for them.
After chatting in the living room for a while, Taya felt a bit embarrassed and spoke up, “Silas, you should know Miss Knight. She used to suffer from depression, but she has overcome it. I brought her here to see you.”
Taya genuinely wanted to help him, and Silas could sense her goodwill. When he looked at Edith, his expression wasn’t as cold anymore. “Miss Knight’ situation must be different from mine, right?”
After taking a sip of coffee, Edith composed herself and said gracefully, “If my situation was different from yours, I wouldn’t have come.”
It was precisely because they had gone through similar experiences that she was confident in persuading Silas. But from the moment they entered, Sila s’s affectionate gaze never left Taya. It seemed like he was even more deeply entrenched in his feelings than she was. No wonder he had fallen into severe depression.
Silas didn’t really mind his own depression. It was just a matter
of not being able to sleep at night and constantly thinking about
dying. He would tough it out, but this was Taya’s concern.
No matter what, he wouldn’t let her down. “So, does Miss Knight have any solutions?”
