Chapter 430 There’s Something Else Going On!
Silas looked at Gianna and smiled. “Truthfully, my mother isn’t dead. Back then, my mother was
already in the operating room by the time I rushed over to the hospital, and Brian stood outside the
operating room and blocked me from going in. I didn’t know what condition my mother was in, so I
desperately begged a doctor to bring me inside. However, my mother was in critical condition at the
time. The doctor informed me that she might end up in a vegetative state. I didn’t dare to tell Brian
about her condition. If she fell into a coma, how would these two sickly people take care of each other?
Thus, I went to my grandpa. He helped me sneak my mother out of the hospital and sent her to a
secret location to be treated. Moreover, he took control of the people who were monitoring the situation
from the shadows. When Brian learned that my mother did not survive the incident, he passed out
again. By the time he woke up again, he rushed over to the funeral home and fought with me, thinking
that I buried our mother behind his back. At this point, I admit that I was using him. But, it was for his
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtsake. He was only safe if we were not on good terms. Afterward, I helped him get back on the right
track, a little at a time. I might not have been in contact with him all these years, but I know everything
that has been going on in his life.”
Gianna was shaken by what she heard. Then, she said in disbelief, “It must have been hard for you as
the elder brother. Then, where is your mother now?”
He replied, “She’s at a location I arranged for her.” After that, Gianna frowned and considered
everything he had told her again. “Even if your father doesn’t love your mother, aren’t you and Brian his
biological sons? Why doesn’t he love his own children? Besides, wasn’t he worried that both of you
would be strongly criticized by the public if he turned your mother’s incident into such a huge scandal?”
He coldly spat out, “Didn’t I already tell you before? Brian and I were kids he never wanted! If he never
had us, he might have had a smoother divorce! How could he possibly care for a bunch of stumbling
blocks that he hated in the first place?”
Frowning deeply, she said again, “Even if he didn’t love you because he considered the two of you little
more than shackles hindering his divorce… was it worth doing all this just for Lara? Does he love her
that much? Does he love her so much that he doesn’t mind claiming that he was cheated on, setting up
his ex-wife to be kicked out of the marriage with nothing but the clothes on her back, treating his sons
like they were no more than strangers, and even causing a car accident to kill your mother after his
divorce? Isn’t that overdoing it a little? Don’t you find it strange?”
He frowned in response but didn’t bother considering it deeply. “He has always been very caring toward
Lara. Even now, he obeys everything she says. If that isn’t love, then what is it? If he didn’t cause such
a huge scandal out of it, it wouldn’t have been easy for him to get a divorce!”
On the other hand, she didn’t know how to explain her thoughts well. Thus, she mulled over it and tried
to arrange her thoughts before saying, “Logically speaking, if all Lara and your dad wanted was to force
your mother to get a divorce, then Lara already achieved her goal! So then, why did they have to kill
your mother? Either you have been considering this from the wrong direction, and they aren’t the ones
behind it at all, or they actually wanted to kill your mother to conceal something else!” Upon hearing
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthat, he scowled fiercely. In the beginning, he had simply assumed that they were afraid of him exacting
revenge on them, and that’s why they did their best to suppress him, use his men to kill his mother, as
well as turn the brothers against each other. Now that he heard what Gianna said, he couldn’t help
thinking that what she said made sense. “Tomorrow, I plan to bring Brian with me to visit my mother. I’ll
ask her about this while I’m at it. Why don’t you come with me?” “N-NO!” she reflexively rejected the
offer. “Uh… I mean, I’ll go with you another time.”
The corners of Silas’s mouth turned up into a teasing smile. “At first, I wanted to give you some time to
mentally prepare yourself too. But, I don’t plan to marry anybody else except you. So, you don’t need to
feel so mentally burdened. Besides, you’ve already met grandpa and Brian, so it shouldn’t be a big deal
to meet your future mother-in-law, right?”
Upon hearing those words, Gianna felt speechless. How is that the same? I met Grandpa and Brian
before we became a couple, okay?
