Chapter 284 There Is No Need to Be so Courteous Camila was instructing the workers to change the glass when she saw Silas’s car. Instantly became
vigilant, she looked at the car guiltily. Why is the annoying man here again? However, she didn’t dare to
reprimand him. Not only did she not dare to scold him, but she even greeted him with a smile and
politely asked, “Mr. Nolan, may I know the reason for your visit?”
Silas looked at her and chuckled. Even though she sounds polite, the way she’s glaring at me is like
she’s about to stab me with a knife! He secretly glanced at George, who was walking toward them from
inside. With a serious expression, he asked, “I heard that your studio was robbed. Are you alright?” “I’m
fine. We only lost some fabrics,” Camila replied. Hearing this, Silas said, “Everything else doesn’t
matter as long as there are no casualties.” The two of them spoke politely to each other until George
appeared before them. “Camila, why don’t you invite him in?” At that moment, Camila seemed to have
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtjust come back to her senses. Truth was, she didn’t want to invite Silas in at all. The more they spoke,
the higher the possibility that they might reveal something. If her senior found out about their
relationship, she would be in trouble. However, at that instant, she had no choice but to ask, “Mr. Nolan,
would you like to come in?” She really hoped that Silas would be able to understand the look in her
eyes that was asking him to leave and wished he would give an excuse that he had something else to
attend to. To her dismay, Silas enunciated each word clearly, “Sounds great!” S-Sounds great? Didn’t
he see the look in my eyes that asked him to leave immediately? Truth be told, Silas saw her signal but
ignored it as he really was reluctant to leave his cute girlfriend. Even though they couldn’t do anything
intimate and he could only watch her, he felt it was better than not being able to see her at all.
Moreover, he wanted to see the extent of the damage. When he went in, the staff and workers had
pretty much cleaned up everything but they hadn’t had the time to clean the paint all over the floor, so
Silas could still imagine what a mess it was earlier. “How much have you lost?” Silas asked. Camila
helplessly replied, “A rough estimate would be hundreds of thousands!” Hearing this, Silas said, “I
heard that the police have already caught the suspect.” Camila was slightly shocked to hear this. “That
was fast. Was it Lyla?”
“No, it was Leila.” “Leila?” Camila was so furious that she was speechless. “Why are these two mother
and daughter so persistent?” Looking at her with a gentle and tender gaze, Silas
replied, “Don’t worry. The police will definitely give you an explanation.” Before Camila could reply,
Silas heard George say, “Mr. Nolan, you’re a busy man but you still make time to take care of our
Camila. I’m sorry for troubling you. Why don’t we go to Camila’s house to have a meal together?” Silas
frowned slightly. Our Camila? He sure doesn’t treat Camila as an outsider. Seeing that Silas was about
to say something, Camila hurriedly spoke first. “George, you know very well that my cooking is terrible
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmso don’t make me look foolish. If you want to thank him, we can invite Mr. Nolan out another day!” If
they went to eat at her house, Silas knew every nook and cranny so they would definitely give away
their secret.
However, George disagreed and said, “Going out to eat doesn’t seem as genuine as cooking
ourselves. I believe Mr. Nolan doesn’t mind.” His words were targeted at Camila but his eyes were
focused on Silas. It was as if he was glaring at an enemy that was about to steal something that
belonged to him. Camila was extremely anxious so when George wasn’t looking, she quickly gestured
to Silas with a glare. Seeing how anxious Camila was, Silas couldn’t help but stifle a laugh. At first, he
wanted to compete with George but he didn’t dare to provoke his girlfriend. After all, if she got angry, he
might even lose his trial period as her boyfriend. After giving it some thought, he politely said, “There’s
no need to be so
courteous. Besides, I trouble Camila more often. We’re all friends so there’s no need to be so polite.”
As he spoke, he turned to look at Camila and said, “There’s another reason for my visit today. My
grandpa is free tomorrow. Do you have time to head over to his house to get his measurements?”
