novelxo Chapter 1342
"Silvia, it was you who refused to see me first! And so I didn't want to see you! Pay attention to the chronology!" Jayden sounded unusually stubborn.
He just needed to take the first step and comfort Silvia to resolve their animosity. But he didn't! Instead, he insisted that he was not at fault!
They were about to get into an argument over who refused to see who first. Given that Jayden was ill and hurt, Silvia decided to let him win. "Alright, it was my fault." Jayden added, "I'm wrong too."
Silvia said, "Alright, it's your fault then."
Jayden gritted his teeth and shot back, "You!"
Silvia patted him. "Don't move. I'll clean your wound first. It may get infected if you don't clean it in time."
Silvia took a swab with alcohol and cleaned Jayden's wounds. The moment it touched him, he frowned and inhaled sharply. "Ouch!"
"Does it hurt?" Silvia asked anxiously.
"Why don't you try if it hurts?!" Jayden said in a foul tone.
He suffered gun wounds once that almost cost his life, but he didn't even utter a word. This time it was just a small injury. He exclaimed merely to attract Silvia's attention so that she would feel sorry for him. "But you can't choose not to clean the wound just because it doesn't hurt." Silvia felt distressed to see that he was in pain. "Well, I'll be gentler. Please bear with it."
Jayden did not say a word.
Silvia made her move again. This time, just when she raised her hand, Jayden hissed in pain!
Silvia knew that this man was not in pain at all. He was behaving like this on purpose, so Silvia pressed the wound down forcefully. This time around, Jayden did not hiss in response. Instead, he roared, "Are you a fool?" "F*ck, how could a woman be so clumsy? She is so incompetent that she can't even handle a small thing!" Jayden wondered.
Silvia retorted, "Yeah, I'm just a fool. If I'm not, why would I come all the way here to see you?"
Jayden felt warm tears falling on his forehead. He looked up and saw that Silvia was crying. "What's wrong?"
"Nothing," Silvia shook her head. "Stop talking. I'm trying to stop the bleeding and bandage it."
"Why are you crying for nothing?"
"It's none of your business."
"If you don't care about my business, then whose business should you care about?" Jayden's face darkened, and he said ruthlessly, "Silvia, let me tell you this. This time, it was you who came to me first. If you dared to leave me without my permission, I'd definitely break your legs."
"If you don't want me to leave, then I won't. Why are you so fierce?" After all, she didn't plan to leave this place alone since she was here. If she wanted to go, she must bring Jayden with her.
"You're really not leaving?" Jayden felt something was wrong with Silvia, but he could not figure it out.
"I told you not to move. Don't you understand?"
"Is this how you treat a patient?"
"You deserved it!"
"You're ruthless!"
"It's done." Silvia had finally bandaged his wound.
"That was fast." Silvia was clumsy just now. How did she finish it up so quickly? He wasn't getting enough of her attention yet.
She then replied, "It's getting late. You should go back and rest early. Be careful with the wound, and don't let it get wet."
He had already come to see her, but she still asked him to leave. Jayden felt that this woman was peculiar. "Do you really want me to go away?"
"If you want to stay, then go ahead. I won't force you to leave." Silvia replied in her heart. However, Jayden didn't see through her and assumed that her silence was her assent for him to leave. "Fine, I'll go." Jayden said solemnly.
"Jayden, I'm staying in such a large house alone. If there is a thief, I will be scared." Silvia was being very obvious now. Jayden should understand what she meant.
However, Jayden did not understand her and said, "Secret Garden's security system was built well. We would be alerted even if a fly enters the premise, let alone a thief. After all these years, not a single thief has dared to enter the Kyles' residence to steal things. If there was any successful burglar, I would really want to see how it goes!"
Silvia replied, "Stop talking nonsense. Go back and rest."
If she continued to listen to him, she would probably feel dejected.
She had met fools before but not someone as silly as Jayden. Perhaps he wasn't dense, but he was just reluctant. After all, they were at the Kyles' residence in Chatterton Town, and the person Jayden truly loved was also in the same premises...
"Headlines! Headlines! Jayden snuck into Sister Silvia's room, and she hit him as she mistook him as a thief!" Levi messaged his mom as he eavesdropped outside the room.
"What? Levi, if this piece of information isn't 100% verified, then you would better not let Jayden know about it. Otherwise, he would spank you!" The moment Mia replied to Levi, she immediately forwarded the messages to their family group chat. "Headlines! Headlines! Jayden snuck into Silvia's room in the middle of the night with an ulterior motive! But Silvia mistook him for a thief and beat him up."
Mia's message was broadcasted immediately. Soon, all the Kyles knew that Jayden snuck into Silvia's room the previous night, but yet Silvia beat him up, mistaking him as a burglar.
"Headlines! Headlines! Sister Silvia asked Jayden to stay but Jayden rejected her!" Levi sent the latest update to his mother and left hurriedly.
Mia immediately forwarded the news into the group chat that Jayden was also in. "Headlines! Headlines! Jayden wanted to stay overnight in Silvia's room but he was rejected."
"Pfft..." Karen couldn't help bursting into laughter when she saw Mia's message.
Kevin, who was reading a book, heard Karen's laughter and turned around. He asked, "What's so funny?"
Karen pointed at her phone and said, "Mia just sent a message saying that Jayden secretly went to check on Silvia. Who would have thought that she would mistake him as a thief and beat him up!" Kevin replied, "You women are too much!"
Karen asked, "What do you mean?"
Kevin explained discontentedly, "How could a woman even mistake her man for someone else? What do you women think about all the time?"
Karen probed, "Kevin, what on earth are you trying to say? Jayden didn't even tell Silvia that he was coming to see her and snuck into her room in the middle room. Silvia isn't familiar around here, so she must've thought that he was a thief."
Kevin said, "It's getting late. You should go to sleep."
For the past few days, Jayden had been the subject of their conversation. Kevin was concerned about his eldest son's illness that it even bothered Kevin in his sleep. It was quite distressing! Karen replied, "You should sleep first. I'm still waiting for Mia to send me the latest updates."
Kevin grabbed the phone in Karen's hand, turned it off, and then threw it aside. "It's fine if you go about the children during the daytime. But you're mine at night. If you think about them again, be careful of wha I'll do with you!"
