Chapter 218 You Are Injured
Giannn lumed to look at the man standing beside Kate when she heard that. The man was around
180cm, and he looked handsome and elegant There was a kind smile etched across his face, giving
him an unmistakable look of a graceful young master. “Nice to meet you. My name is Jasper
Greenwood. I am. Katie’s friend.” He deliberately glanced at Kate when he said that Gianna
immediately understood what he meant. He is most probably pursuing Katie, but she hasn’t agreed to
it, and that must be the reason he glanced at her during his introduction! “Nice to meet you. I’m Gianna
Aubrey, Katie’s childhood best friend.
Jasper smiled when he answered her, “I know, she always talks about you!” He glanced at Silas after
saying that. “You must be President Nolan.” He reached out to shake Silas’s hand. They shook hands,
and Silas greeted him, “Nice to meet you.” Jasper finally straightened up while commenting, “It’s great

relieved since you’re fine. You don’t have to worry about a thing, you just have to go home and sleep
well. I’ll see you tomorrow, alright?” South nodded, “Mm-hmm.” The few people chatted for a moment
longer before finally separating. In the elevator, Silas started discussing with Gianna, “Why don’t you
both stay at my place?”
She shook her head. I know that Silas is just being kind and generous. He most probably guessed that
we are both in shock from what
· happened tonight. However, how could I possibly be comfortable staying overnight at his home? “No
need.”
Silas did not comment further. The narrow elevator suddenly fell into a deafening silence. The three of
them remained quiet for the rest of the elevator ride. When they arrived on the 59th floor, Gianna held
South’s hand to leave the elevator. Under normal circumstances, Silas would have straightaway rode
the elevator down, but he followed them from behind today. Gianna glanced at him in surprise. “We are
truly fine. Thank you for today, because if it weren’t for you, I’m not sure if I would have survived until
now. I will repay you and thank you properly another day.” Silas did not reply to her; instead, he walked
straight to the main door of their house and punched the passcode in to open the door. Gianna did not
even have the chance to ask how he learned about the passcode to her home when he broke the
silence first. “Since you refuse to come over to my place, I have no choice but to stay over!” Gianna
was dumbfounded, and it took her the longest time to digest and process what he meant. “That’s not
necessary. We will be fine!” Silas had a solemn expression when he signaled at the room. His voice
was dominant and firm, as if he wasn’t taking ‘no’ for an answer. “Come into the house!” The child must
have been hurt. However, since the little fellow doesn’t want his mommy to know about it, it’ll be better
if I keep him company. After going through such an ordeal, how could both mother and son not be
affected at all? And how could I possibly relax? Gianna did not say anything further. She walked

first. I’ll get the medical kit to treat South’s wounds.” South was quite surprised. Did I not hide my
wounds well? He pulled Gianna in a hurry. “Mommy, I’m fine! I’m not injured!” Gianna felt tears surging
in her eyes, and she had to hold them back. “Don’t lie to me because I saw it. Look, your blood is
already seeping through” she whispered with a hoarse voice. South’s eyes widened, and he looked at
the direction she was staring at. There were blood stains across the shirt on his shoulder. I was injured
around my shoulders when that mad woman pushed me to the ground, I already had my wounds
treated in Will-o’-Wisp Headquarters; I even had a change of clothes. Why is the blood still seeping
through? It was impossible for Gianna not to have noticed because South flinched reflexively when she
first held him previously. He wouldn’t have flinched and avoided my touch if he weren’t in pain. “Wait
right here,” she instructed him before she stood up. Silas scowled deeply. It seems like nothing gets
past her as a mother.
