Chapter 20 Save My Number
If he had said that
to any other woman, they would have been over the moon. Nolan Group was not a place w
here anyone could enter just because they wanted to, much less be personally invited by t
he company president, Silas Nolan. But who was
Gianna Aubrey? She was also from a rich and powerful family herself, She did not need to
depend on anyone to be able to live a luxurious life.
Her son had applied for that position for her out of his own volition, and she only decided t
o go to appease herself. However, she was well aware of the hardships that came with
working for someone else–once was more than enough for her.
South was staring at her with glimmering eyes. Say yes! Say yes!
She felt her son‘s gaze on her. But, even though Silas was handsome, he simply was not h

n opening my own fashion studio. I‘m currently starting preparations.”
The burning excitement in South‘s eyes died down, and he pouted in anguish. This is too
hard.
It was too difficult to bring those two people together.
Nevertheless, Silas had an understanding look on his face and did not look dismayed. He s
ighed. “Looks like it‘s Nolan Group‘s loss!”
She smiled. “Don‘t say that, Mr. Nolan. There are other people besides me.”
He lifted a corner of his lips. “Okay, as long as you don‘t take what I said before to heart.”
“I won‘t. I‘m grateful for your help earlier too,” she answered. “Don‘t mention it. Call me if
they ever harass you again. You should save my number.“ Save your number? I’m not eve
n planning on keeping in touch with you. But South gave him her phone right away. “Here,
Uncle Silas!” Gianna wanted to cry. Whose son is this? She glared at the little fellow and w
as going to snatch her phone back when Silas intercepted, “I‘ll put in my number.” His lon
g fingers made the phone
seem like a toy in his hands. He was only putting in his number but the sight of it was
pleasant to watch. Once he was done, he gave her phone back to her and said, “You can
always come look for me if there’s a problem. I meant what I said.” Seeing the surprise in
her face, he quickly added, “Your sense of justice saved my
grandfather and I’m very grateful for that. I‘m also quite fond of your son. You‘re a friend
to me now.” Gianna smiled but was unmoved by his words. “You don‘t have to be so
courteous. Needless to say, you put out your money, and I put out my strength.” She was
unwilling to give him a chance to get friendly either. He said
helplessly, “I admit that I was wrong about you once, but we still have a lot of time. We
can slowly resolve this.” She let out
a small smile. “Okay.” Every one of her sentences felt like a dead end. He

he got up. “Okay then. Call me if there’s anything. I‘ll
leave you alone now.” As he spoke, he rubbed South‘s head. “You can come
and look for me in the future.”
A wide grin appeared on South‘s face as he nodded aggressively. “Yes, sir!” Gianna
also stood up and smiled politely. “I‘ll see you out.” She
sent him off and bid him farewell. When she
returned, she sat right in front of South with a grim expression on her face. “What is up wit
hurt that much?” she asked while looking straight at him.
