Chapter 98 Housewarming
“You’ll know by tomorrow,” said South nonchalantly as he jumped to his feet and went
straight into his room. Gazing at him, Silas couldn’t help but smile. For a kid that was
barely one meter tall, South clearly didn’t act or sound like one.
For dinner, Gianna had prepared a hot pot with two types of broth-spicy and non-spicy,
hence everyone’s preference was well taken care of. As it was a simple comfort food, it
didn’t take too long for her to serve the hot pot on the table, and the aroma of the hot pot
broth had spread all the way to the living room. Attracted to the aroma, Silas rose from his
seat and walked over to the dining room. Seeing the tantalizing food galore on the table
made his mouth water.
Holding a plate of beef in her hands, Gianna said, “Mr. Nolan, please have a seat. Dinner
will be ready soon.”
Then, she turned to the direction of the spacious hallway and shouted, “South, dinner is
ready.” With that, the door flung open, and South came running out of the room. Taking
out the newly bought wine, Gianna poured each one of them a glass. While passing a
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtglass of wine to Silas, she said, “Mr. Nolan, drink some. You can ask your driver to come
and pick you up later.”
“Alright,” Silas replied.
Without needing Gianna to serve, Landon and Kate had already helped themselves with a
glass.
Since it was housewarming, everyone took turns to toast Gianna and said their blessings.
As a formality, Gianna had said a few words in response. After all, there was someone else
present in their little group. As South mentioned, their relationship with Silas wasn’t that
close. Throughout dinner, Gianna had taken extra care to serve Silas. “Mr. Nolan, if you
prefer non-spicy, feel free to take this side of the food together with South.”
“Will do. You eat up, too. Don’t bother to serve us,” said Silas. Having said that, Gianna
was still busy dishing up the cooked food nearer toward Silas and South with the serving
chopsticks.
With Silas around, the dinner atmosphere seemed more restrained as compared to their
usual dinner.
However, it wasn’t too much a difference for Landon because from the very start, he was
already intimidated by Silas. Hence, he dared not say much and would tend to be more
proper around him.
As for Kate, her behavior on the table was solely determined by how close her relationship
was with the people around the table.
Today, she was unusually proper and quietly enjoying her meal. Holding a glass of wine,
Gianna looked toward Silas and said, “Mr, Nolan, thank you for always watching over us,
especially the incident that occurred last night. If it weren’t for you, Kate and I wouldn’t be
able to get ourselves out in one piece.”
“You’re most welcome. Cheers!” They raised their glasses and finished up the wine.
Confused, Landon asked, “What happened?” Lowering her head, Kate briefly explained
what had happened last night. Casting a glance at Silas, South’s expression seemed to
have gone back to his normal friendly self. Giving Silas a nudge, he said, “I want to eat
that cocktail sausage.”
Feeling elated, Silas immediately picked up two cocktail sausages from the hot pot and

Sneaking a grin, South hung his head and began to dig in. With that, Silas had kept
himself busy by taking care of the little guy. Noticing the close interaction between Silas
and South, Gianna thought the relationship seemed fine and blamed herself for thinking
too much.
Upon hearing the whole incident, Landon felt his anger spiked. “How dare he! That Luca,
who does he think he is?”
Tugging on Landon’s sleeves, Kate comforted, “Calm down! Mr. Nolan had everything
settled. Metrostar Entertainment had officially fired him, and my guess is President Grant
dare not work with him ever again.” “Right, Harriet Grani is a smart person for doing so,”
said Silas.
Considering tiow modest and friendly Mr. Nolan was, Kate became more daring by raising
up her glass to propose a toast. “Mr. Nolan, I’d like to propose a toast to you. Besides
helping us to solve our big problem yesterday, many advertisers had
