Triplets’ Mighty Mom Novel novel Chapter 144

Chapter 144 The Fall

Camila shot Kate a glance. Although she didn’t want to admit it, Kate seemed to have pointed out the truth. Rather than being afraid of Silas, she was just nervous, her heart leaping to her throat whenever he spoke to her.

Camila’s condition was fairly stable during her one-week stay at the hospital. Silas had stopped staying overnight to take care of her, but he would pay her a visit every day. Meanwhile, Camila started doing things she never thought she would do in the past. For example, she would stay in the hospital garden for a while every day. To make it easier for her, Silas got her a wheelchair and would even help her with getting in and out of the wheelchair. Camila found it awkward initially, but she got used to it later on. Eventually, she came to the conclusion that she must have read too much into it. I guess that’s why I felt that Silas was acting weird. Would she find it awkward if Landon hugged her? No! She would even make him get into a more comfortable position. So why would she reject it when it was Silas who did it?

Her embarrassment suggested that she had some unnecessary thoughts. Instead, she should be forthright and treated him like how she treated Landon. Upon some convincing, she eventually accepted it. After being discharged from the hospital, she spent two days working at her studio and finally had some free time. All of a sudden, she felt that she should treat Silas to a meal. Be it thanking him for taking care of her during her hospitalization, or fulfilling her promise, she should prepare a meal for him. On the same day, she put on some makeup to get ready to go to the supermarket. Just when she entered the elevator, she bumped into Silas, who was going to work. Flashing a smile at him, she greeted, “Hi, Mr. Nolan. I wanted to call you and tell you that I’m going to treat you to a meal tonight.” A hint of surprise flashed across Silas’s gaze as his lips curved into a smile uncontrollably. I knew she’s going to treat me to a meal! Smiling, he said, “Alright, where are you.” “I’m going to the supermarket. What are your favorite dishes?” Camila inquired. Silas couldn’t help smiling and sized her up. She was wearing a white coat and a pair of stilettos, while the makeup looked perfect on her beautiful face.

Eventually, he couldn’t help but tease, “Aren’t you worried that you might twist your ankle if you go to the supermarket in this outfit?” Camila was rendered speechless. What is wrong with my outfit? I’m not going to a wet market anyway. After I’m done with grocery shopping at the supermarket, I don’t even need to carry the groceries myself as I will tell the delivery guy to send them to my home. Why can’t I go to the supermarket in this outfit? So, she snorted, “I’m not worried at all!” The elevator doors opened after she finished her words. Once she stepped out of the elevator, her left foot stamped on her right foot as she fell down directly. In that instant, she closed her eyes and waited for her imminent fall as she blamed Silas for jinxing her. However, to her surprise, she fell into a pair of strong arms. Subconsciously opening her eyes, what fell into her gaze was Silas’s shocked expression. He inquired, “Are you alright?”

At that moment, Camila’s heart pounded against her chest. Just like a soap opera, the male lead managed to save the falling female lead. Seeing such scenes on television when she was younger, she would urge the characters to hug and kiss.

However, when that happened to her in real life, she was utterly embarrassed as her face flushed. Apart from her fall, she had also asserted that she would never fall down again. How embarrassing! She didn’t even dare look at Silas, for he must be laughing at her. Lowering her head, she replied in embarrassment, “l-I’m fine.” Silas’s lips curved into a smile, not because he was laughing at her but because he simply found her adorable.

Camila couldn’t be described as adorable as she never acted coquettishly, nor was her face the cute type. In fact, she didn’t need all of those to get what she wanted.
