Chapter 108 Get Along With Her
It can’t be Silas, I hope? Gianna rejected that possibility almost immediately after it
surfaced in her mind. How can it be Silas? Why would he leave his large villa to move to a
place like this? There are few occupants with the last name of Nolan in Summer City
When the elevator door opened with a ‘ding’, Gianna stepped out of it and continued to
eye the indicator panel with suspicion. She had a hunch that it was Silas yet she was a tad
bit afraid that it was really him. Sigh, what an indescribable sensation. The door was
opened-it was South standing by the entrance, asking, “What are you looking at,
Mommy?” ” bumped into the workers from the moving company earlier, they were moving
things to the floor above us and said that the owner’s last name is Nolan!” she explained.
There was a spark in his gaze in that moment. She was not fully certain about the house
owner’s identity, but her son knew from the moment he heard it and thought. This was
what he meant he said that he’ll fix things. It seems like Daddy’s a pretty reliable man.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe young child smirked-it was one that seemed a tad bit mature for his age.
Gianna noticed the sneaky grin on South’s face and walked over to ask, “What are you
smiling at?” “Nothing much.” South tried his best to stop his smile from widening. Gianna
feigned anger as she stomped toward him, saying, “Hurry up and tell. Otherwise, I’m
going to tickle you.” He was frightened by her words that he immediately rushed into the
house,
A loud smack reverberated in the Roberts Residence as a slap landed on Ben’s cheek.
Evan was extremely furious as he pointed a finger at Ben, saying, “What did I tell you? I
don’t care how you want to fool around, but you have to make sure that you’re in Jessica’s
good books. That was smart of you to hit her for the sake of some useless lady. You were
even caught on video and I had to deal with it on your behalf. My dignity has been
trampled on, no thanks to you.” That incident had caught Ben by surprise as well.
Although Jessica had stopped him in his room that morning, Kaylee was already wearing
her clothes, so he could’ve merely lied that they were in a business discussion. Why would
it have mattered when Jessica hadn’t seen them being intimate together? Even if she did,
she would not have any proof. He had to have a convincing explanation for the slap that
he gave her downstairs–she kicked up a fuss and he laid a hand on her impulsively after
being embarrassed by her. However, that was not a big deal – he could simply apologize
to her and it did not matter much for them to cancel their wedding. However, what he
never expected was Jessica to have a video footage of him kissing and hugging Kaylee,
replaying the entire scene that happened earlier that morning. He only lowered his head,
responding. “I don’t know where she obtained that video from.”,
“Let’s see how you’re going to explain yourself to your aunt!” Evan cursed with anger.
With a palm being pressed on his cheek, Ben spoke through gritted teeth. “It’s all because
of that woman, who was being a busybody, this morning. Otherwise, Jessica wouldn’t have
been certain of her decision to break up with me. I can feel that she’s still into me.”
“What’s the point of saying this? I think you should focus on mending your relationship
with her. Although both she and her mother wish to cancel the marriage, you’re lucky that

reconcile with Jessica.” “Okay, I got it,” Ben replied. His phone rang immediately after he
finished speaking and he panicked when he saw the caller 10. “-it’s my aunt.” Evan also
tensed up upon hearing that as he quickly ordered, “Hurry up and pick it up! What are you
waiting for?” After taking a deep breath, Ben answered, “Aunt Lara!” Lara’s gentle voice
sounded from the other end of the call as she said, “Ben, how are things going with Jessica
recently?” Ben’s eyes darted toward Evan, as if he was asking the man for advice to
respond to her question. Evan shot him a look that read, Pacify the caller. “N-Not too bad.”
She sounded satisfied with Ben’s response, saying, “Alright. Make sure that you get along
with her. The Roberts will only be able to go against Silas if we’re able to unite with the
Smiths.”
