Chapter 715
As Harper saw him in so much anguish, her eyes turned sad again, “Are you not going to see her ever again?”
Silas fell silent. “I might be able to stop thinking about her if I don’t see her again. But if I do… will I lose my mind with jealousy?” He wondered.
He sat in the same spot for a long time before he slowly calmed himself and looked at Harper.
“Take care of yourself!”
He then pushed the wheelchair and headed towards the door.
Seeing his fragile figure in the wheelchair, Harper felt bad for
him.
She chased after him and asked, “Will you answer my calls in
the future?”
Silas looked up at her with his red-rimmed eyes, then nodded
slightly.
It was only then that Harper felt relieved, “Remember to tell
me when you’re able to move on.”
Silas nodded with a smile. There was no trace of resentment on his gentle and handsome face, only resignation.
When he moved out of Gmissta, it was windy and cold. Sitting in the wheelchair, he looked up at the flurrying sno wflakes in the night sky.
“Camille…”
He called softly, and Camille who was standing behind him. immediately bent over to ask him what was wrong, but he saw that the man’s eyes were brimming with tears.
The wind blew over, taking his faint voice along, but Camille could still hear it, “I miss her so much, but she’s already
someone else’s she-wolf.”
At a loss, Camille stood where he was. Staring at the man who
was an influential CEO in the Wolverly Capital, he couldn’t help sympathizing with him.
They all thought that he was able to move on, but only Camille
knew that this man, who had lost his beloved in Arcadia,
would never forget her for the rest of his life.
He had once asked Silas, “How could you forget Ms. Palmer?”
And Silas had told him, “I had lost her after forgetting about
her, and I would not forget her ever again until my death.”
As Camille stared at him in a daze, the man said, “I’ll never be able to mate the one I want to mate…”
Camille tightened his grip on the handles of the wheelchair, “Mr. Sterling, I’m sure there will be a better person who will mate you in Ms. Palmer’s stead…”
Silas did not reply and just lowered his head as he said softly, “Let’s go…”
Standing on the steps of Gmissta, Harper gazed after and felt bad for him.
She remembered that Silas fell in love with Taya when they
were very young.
She had no idea how long it had been, but she knew his love for Taya was as strong as Griffon’.
Harper sometimes thought that if Silas mated Taya sooner, probably she would never end up with Griffon.
“But… some people love each other deeply but are destined to be apart.” She thought.
“That’s because fate has chosen a candidate for us, and that
candidate has probably begged for it in his or her previous
life.”
“Therefore, who are we to say whether it is Silas or Griffon who has come first?”
Harper sighed deeply, “I hope you can also find your own happiness in the future.”
Harper came down from the steps and neared her car. When she looked up, an overcoat was tossed over.
Preston, who usually acted gentlemanly, curtly raised his chin at her, “Put it on.”
Harper wrapped her arms around the stiff overcoat and looked at him, “Didn’t you leave? Why have you come back?”
Preston put his hands into the pockets of his trousers, and his gaze fell on the car in the distance, “If I hadn’t come back, I wouldn’t be able to see you meeting another man, would I?”
Too far away to see what the man in the wheelchair looked
like and not familiar with Silas, Preston hadn’t guessed that it
was him.
In a low mood, Harper did not bother to explain. She returned the overcoat to Preston, then opened her car door without saying a word.
When she was about to get into the car, the man’s hand held
onto the door before shutting it with a bang.
