Chapter 170 A Friend’s Advice
“Why are you so excited?” “Isn’t this something exciting? Silas Nolan-the bachelor who’s the dream of countless girls! If you’re
with him... Oh god, I will be hugging a treasure now,” Kate exclaimed in exaggeration and even shook Camila’s thigh. Camila
was speechless, for she did not want to be acquainted in any way with the comical lady. Kate continued her celebration for some
time before asking, “Hey, why do you look sullen?” Camila gave her a cold stare and Kate smiled in embarrassment. “I mean,
that’s good news, isn’t it? Why do you look troubled?”
Camila pouted in good fun. “Kate, you’re disrupting my faith!” Her reply made Kate guffawed. “Hah! You don’t have the faith to
start with, but you’re accusing me of disturbing your faith? Tell me, how did you reply to him?” “I told him we’re not suitable for
each other.” Kate was surprised. “Wait, you rejected him?” “Do you think we make a good couple?” Camila glared at her. “Of
course! Why aren’t you a good match? Look, he’s cool, and you’re pretty. A match made in heavens!”
Camila was again at a loss for words. “I really don’t want to talk to you anymore.” Kate breathed in and said, “Camila, Silas is
really a nice man. After so many years, I have not once heard a scandal involving him in Summer City. This shows that he is a
disciplined man. I won’t go into his wealth, power, and good looks. You should know that he’s the best in all aspects. Even if we
only talk about how he treats you... Do you recall how he took great care of you in the hospital? Last time, he even rebuked
Harriet Grant at the party for you...” When she saw that Camila wanted to retort, she quickly added, “I know, I know that he just
happened to be at the site. Anyone would have done it for you, but Harriet is no average person. Even though she is no match
for Silas, everyone has to be courteous to her. But did you see him having any mercy on that day? Not many men would offend
someone influential just for you.” “By the way, don’t you think that you’re fated? Although your first few encounters were not
exactly friendly, you have to put trust in your destiny. If not, why would Landon turn out to be Silas’s nephew, and why would you
save Silas’s grandpa? What do these serendipities mean if not fate? You can argue with me as much as you want, but you
cannot lie to yourself. Camila, why don’t you give it a try?”
Camila sighed at her friend’s persuasion. “Silas is a good man, and that’s the reason 1 can’t burden him.” “Only you’ll think like
that. I bet Silas wants that burden on him badly.” Kate belatedly realized that she had made a suggestive remark. Camila was
tickled by her blank look and chuckled. “I wonder how much Silas pays you for you to promote him with effort.” “Yeah, right. I
should talk to him tomorrow.” “About what?” “I need to discuss my commission fee!”
“I was a little touched by your words before, but that feeling is gone after you made that materialistic comment.”
“Don’t! You need to feel touched. Look at me; my life’s a mess, but I still take the time to worry about your love life. How
sacrificial of me!” Not knowing how to comfort Kate, Camila sank into silence. Kate stared at her. “Hey! Stop looking at me like
that! I’d think that you’re pitying me.” Camila took a deep breath and intentionally barked at her friend, “What’s to pity? Why
would I pity a woman like you who sells your friend out but still has a best friend like me around you? Get back to your room and
sleep now!” “Camila, my girl, I want you to chat and sleep beside me.” Kate went up to grab Camila’s arm, to which the latter
shrugged away in a playful manner. “You’re getting over the line!”
A few days later.
