NovelEnglishChapter 308 Why Was He Such a Jerk? With that, she wiped away the tears on her face vehemently before turning around and making her way
into the house.
“Kate, I won’t give up on you. I only did those things back then because I had no idea that I had fallen
in love with you!” Tugging a handful of his hair frustratingly, Landon was eaten up with regret. Back
then, he started some very bad fights with her like a child because he had no idea how to deal with her
who had suddenly given him a cold shoulder.
He thought he could make her respond to him by doing that, or even yell back at him at the very least.
However, he had no idea that he had hurt her very badly by doing so. Why was he such a jerk?
Leaving the romantic element aside, they had been friends for seven years. Wasn’t that a long enough
time for him to gain a thorough understanding of what type of person she was?
What had he been thinking at that time?
Why would he think that Kate had really bullied Melanie?
That must not be the case!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe was deceived and misled because he simply didn’t expect Melanie would turn out to be such a
wicked woman, so much so that she was capable of putting on an act just to make him believe that she
was really bullied by Camila!
Camila had promised Silas that she would attend the birthday dinner of Old Man Nolan but at the same
time, she was worried that her decision might irk George.
After all, he had warned her to stay away from Silas at the time she went out to deliver the suit for Old
Man Nolan. So, she wondered what comment he would make in response to her decision to attend the
birthday dinner. In order to avoid any possible complication, she decided to lie to him by saying that
Marcus wanted to meet her for a favor.
Fortunately, George did not probe into the matter hence after work, Camila booked a taxi for him to go
back to Muse Peninsula.
Meanwhile, she and South headed straight to Nolan Residence. The birthday dinner of Old Man Nolan
was such a sensational event that almost everyone in town was aware of it. While many were
interested to attend it, only very few people could do so because only those who carried an invitation
card would be allowed access to the villa to ensure the safety of the event.
To avoid tiring his grandfather excessively, Silas had made an effort to trim the guest list but in the end,
the living room of the villa still ended up being crammed with a crowd which consisted the members of
the Nolan Family, which already made up a total of over a hundred people as well as some of their
close friends. After busy giving out directions to the housekeepers, Silas checked his watch and found
it was almost six in the evening. It was only then did he dare to give Camila a call. Speaking like a
secret service agent, Silas asked, “Are you on your way here?” “Yes, I’m on my way and I’ll be there
soon,” she answered. Silas couldn’t help but break into a wide grin when he heard her. “Alright, I’ll go
downstairs to wait for you!”
He started striding off toward the main door where he bumped into Landon who was coming in. “Why
are you late?” Landon pursed his lips in response. He was here only for the sake of his great-
grandfather who had always doted on him, or he wouldn’t have stepped out of his house in all events
with such a foul mood. Without bothering to explain, he greeted Silas listlessly, “Uncle.” Silas knitted his
brows slightly when he heard him. If it wasn’t because he was in a hurry to pick Camila up, he would

As for now… He only replied perfunctorily, “Go on! Your great-grandfather is in his room.”
At a hurried pace, he then made his way to the gate of the villa where he craned his neck looking into
the distance but found no sight of Camila. Suddenly he realized he was being too impatient because
she just told him that she was ‘almost here’, but not ‘here already’. Two bodyguards who were standing
at two sides of the gate started whispering among themselves. “Who is Young Master Nolan waiting
for?” “I have no idea but I suppose it must be some VIP or some important business partner.” At that
juncture, a taxi was seen working its way through the winding road leading toward the villa. Silas’s eyes
lit up with excitement immediately at the sight of the taxi and almost out of instinct, he strode out of the
gate and then in the direction of the taxi.
The bodyguards started asking questions doubtfully. “What kind of business partner travels around in a
taxi?”
“Why is he staring at the car that way? Hey, isn’t that Doctor Brooklyn?” The bodyguard was right. As
soon as the taxi pulled up by the gate, Camila alighted the car wearing a long blue dress which was
matched with a trench coat of the same color. Her long hair was tied up in a loose ponytail that gave
her an innocent but a tad bit sensual look. Standing next to her was South who was wearing a blue suit
so that he looked like a pair with his mother.
