The Woman From Hell novel (Wanda and Theo) novel Chapter 2574

A way out?

I laughed, and when I looked up at Silas, his expression was blank, dark, and filled with hostility. "Did you actually come to look for me now to seek leeway for Yard Group?”

Although Silas was calm, he definitely would not have come talk to me unless he was afraid.

Confident, I continued immediately, “You’re afraid that the overly high bid because of our partnership would affect Yard Group. Even though you just said that you’ll get the land in North Courts at all costs, the truth is you wouldn’t take the risk. So, you’re trying to get me to give up this campaign, am I right?”

Silas was slightly taken aback when he heard this. His calm expression also shifted a little as he moved his hands away from the table as if he did not want me to catch his micro-behaviors again.

“You’re sure you want to fight me?” I did not expect Silas to ask such a question. I thought he would just leave in a fit of anger.

Rolling my eyes slightly, I answered, "That depends on your sincerity."

"What do you want?"

It was the first time he spoke to me in such a low voice.

It seemed that he really wanted North Courts.

I tilted my head and looked at him. “If I want to know why you have a special liking for North Courts’ land, would you tell me?"

Hearing this, Silas was startled again before responding, "No."

The answer was decidedly lacking in emotion.

I shrugged and spread my hands. "Then, there’s nothing to talk about."

I stood up and was about to leave when Silas' voice sounded again behind me. “Is there anything else apart from that?”

Why should I refuse him with how humbly he was asking me that?
