I’ll Settle the Bill
Silvia was about to step back unknowingly.
Jayden grabbed her and said, "Silvia, what are you trying to do?"
Just now, she had promised him that she would not leave him. She wanted to love him and let him discover her merits... It was because he believed in her; that was why he told her everything.
Yet, this woman began to retreat only moments after making her promise.
Silvia drew back her hand. "Jayden, I'm sorry! I need some time to calm down!"
Jayden growled, "Silvia!"
Silvia shook her head and said, "Jayden, I like you. I really want to be with you forever, but when I think of Felix being hurt because of me, I can't forgive myself."
Jayden became furious and said, "So what do you want? You want me to get someone to arrange a marriage for him in the afterlife?!"
"Felix is still alive! He doesn't need an afterlife marriage. I just hope that he can find the happiness that belongs to him. I hope he will be happier than me. Do you understand?"
"Felix is still alive?" Why hadn't Jayden received any news? How did Silvia know about this? Were the people sent by Stanley to her side useless?
Silvia answered, "Yes, he is still alive. I will find the real murderer to avenge him and let him know that you are not the culprit. Only when he finds the happiness he deserves, can I be with you. Jayden, do you understand?"
"Silvia, you want to search for the murderer?!" Jayden's eyes darkened at this. He grabbed her and held her hands tightly. "Leave this matter to me. You don't have to care about anything else."
The truth would be crueler than she thought, and he was afraid that she couldn't accept it.
"You?" Silvia shook her head and insisted, "No, Jayden, you have nothing to do with this. You must not intervene. I don't want you to be in danger too."
"Silvia, you are my wife. Your business is my business." Jayden uttered with determination, "Trust me! Believe me this time! I know who the murderer was. I ensure the murderer is punished and give Felix an explanation."
Hearing this, Silvia was extremely surprised. "Jayden, you know who the murderer was? No... You should know that. I was confused for a moment."
He had already told her that he knew about the incident, so it wouldn’t be surprising for him to know who the murderer was.
Jayden embraced her in his arms and said, "Silvia, believe me, let me handle this!"
Silvia asked again, "Who was the murderer?"
"Don't ask!" No matter what, he would never tell her who the murderer was.
"I want to know!" Silvia was persistent too.
"Norman Turner!" Jayden blurted the name. Only when it came to this person would Silvia believe it. Besides, he was sure that Silvia could not find Norman to confront him.
Silvia gnashed her teeth and cursed angrily, "It really was Norman. That son of a b*tch, not only did he hurt my father, but he also wanted to hurt Felix. I want to tear him apart with my own hands!"
Jayden comforted her, "I will tear him apart for you."
Nevertheless, Silvia was still worried and she replied, "Jayden, I don't want you to be in danger."
"Don't worry, I can still handle such a small matter."
Silvia added, "Felix is back. He did not tell me personally that you hurt him nor show his hatred for you, but my sixth sense told me that it was not as simple as it seems. I am afraid that Felix will hurt you, so we must let him know the truth as soon as possible. Don't let him harm you out of hatred."
Hearing that she was concerned about him, Jayden smiled gently and could not help hugging her tighter, "Silly girl, don't worry. It won't be so easy for him to hurt me."
"Jayden..." Silvia had something else to say, but she felt that this request was too much after thinking about it. However, she had no other choice but to beg him. "If Felix does anything, as long as he does not endanger your life, can you not hurt him?"
Jayden fell quiet.
Thinking of how she was still thinking of Felix, Jayden was slightly unhappy. However, she was willing to tell him everything, which also proved her trust in him. He could promise her this. "Okay, I promise you!"
Silvia said gratefully, "Thank you!"
She knew that she was asking too much, but she could only beg. She also believed that Felix would not do anything to Jayden once Felix found out the truth.
"Thank me for what?" Jayden pushed her out of his arms and said, "There are many nice places in Chatterton Town. Let Karen Joy and Levi bring you for a stroll."
"There’s no need, I want to accompany you." Without him, she didn't want to go anywhere. If he could accompany her, then she would have the chance to visit Chatterton Town.
"But I'm sleepy. I want to rest for a while," said Jayden. He still had to ask Stanley to deal with Felix’s matter, thus he could not let Silvia find out for the time being.
"Then I'll stay with you." She had finally made it to his side, so she didn't want to leave so quickly.
Jayden cupped her face and pushed the hair on her forehead behind her ear. "You will make me feel bad. Go out with them. If you like something, just buy it. I'll settle the bills."
"There are a lot of things that I like. Aren't you afraid that I would make you go broke?"
Silvia was looking down on his financial capabilities! If she could truly spend all his money, she must be remarkable. He replied, "If I become broke, I'll just make more money."
Silvia shook her head again and insisted, "But I still don't want to go."
Jayden deliberately pulled a long face and asked, "Then, are you not afraid that I can't have a good rest if you’re here?"
"Well... " If he didn’t rest well, it would affect his condition. Silvia thought for a while and answered, "Then I will ask Levi and the others to accompany me for a walk. Let’s be clear, don't blame me for spending too much money!"
Jayden smiled gently and said, "Only a woman who knows how to spend money would be able to make money. Show me your ability to spend, and I'll see if you have the ability to earn too!"
"Huh! You said it! Don't regret it." If this man dared to say that to her, she would let him know how powerful her spending ability was.
"I will never regret it."
"Then, I'm leaving."
"Sure."
"Are you really going to let me go?"
"Yes."
"You don't want to do anything to me anymore?"
"Well, come here."
Silvia complied and approached him. But as soon as she got close, he hugged her head and kissed her fiercely. Later, Silvia went out to find Levi and the others with her swollen lips. She was so embarrassed that she couldn't hide from their ambiguous gazes.
If she had known this would happen, she would not have provoked Jayden.
.....
As soon as Silvia had left, Jayden dialed Stanley's number immediately.
When he received a call from Jayden, Stanley was so excited that he almost burst into tears. He said, "Sir, you’re finally looking for me. I thought you have abandoned us and didn't want us anymore."
Jayden said coldly, "You can't even handle a small matter! So, it's really useless for me to keep all of you."
Stanley stammered in shock, "Sir, I..."
"Felix is still alive!"
Stanley couldn't believe it. "Felix is still alive? Sir, I witnessed his burial. How could he possibly still be alive?"
