SWNOVELS Chapter 348: She Likes Him
A few people gathered together, and Silvia suddenly realized why Balk always seemed so familiar whenever she saw him. It was because of this, wasn't it? The old lady and Miles standing together looked like
a family.
"See, little sister, I told you I've seen them before. Look, isn't this it?"
"Alright, alright, you have good eyes to recognize them at a glance."
Silvia was speechless. She hadn't even considered such a relationship existed. But because of what happened today, she couldn't help but wonder if it was all part of a scheme. But seeing the surprised expression on Miles' face, it seemed he didn't know much about it either.
"So, you two are here at the charity event tonight too. I thought I wouldn't see you here."
Miles suddenly realized who the person his grandmother had mentioned on the phone was. It must have been Silvia. At that time, he hadn't cared much about who his grandmother had met, so he didn't come. Now knowing it was Silvia, he felt a bit helpless. If he had known Silvia was here this afternoon, he would have come without hesitation. But obviously, his grandmother didn't give him that chance.
The old lady almost burst into laughter. This was what she wanted, for Miles to regret not coming. Since he didn't come, now they couldn't meet. She had to make the most of this chance.
"I invited you to come with me tonight, but you didn't. If it weren't for this girl helping me today, I might have been bullied by someone else."
The old lady saw Miles' anxious look and recounted today's events seriously. Miles was surprised after hearing it all. He looked at Silvia seriously. "Anyway, thank you very much for today. I had something prepared for you. Consider it my thank-you instead of my grandmother's. But..." He stopped halfway because he knew some things were not appropriate.
He went to the passenger seat, opened it, and took out a small bag. He handed it to Silvia, who recognized the brand instantly.
This brand specialized in jewelry, especially beautiful ruby necklaces and bracelets, which Silvia loved. Miles unexpectedly bought one for her.
"I know you like their jewelry, so I bought a bracelet for you. They made it in the shape of a rose. I think you'll really like it. Originally, I planned to give it to you later, but because of what happened today, I'm giving it to you now. I hope you'll accept it."
Silvia was surprised that something
she liked would be given to her by Miles. Even if he asked around a little, he could have found out. She held the bag Miles gave her, feeling complicated. She initially thought everything was planned, but now she realized it was just an accident.
Apart from this unexpected incident, when she received the bag, her emotions became even more complicated. She hadn't wanted too much interaction with Miles because she knew his initial intentions. But now, it seemed there was something else.
"Since you two know each other, it's much better. I've been wanting to thank him, but he's always refused. Now that he's given this, I can breathe a sigh of relief. You two should go home and rest early." After politely greeting them, Silvia drove away with Miles. As they drove off, Silvia couldn't help but turn back and look at her grandmother, feeling helpless.
"Why didn't you tell me you met Silvia tonight? If you had, I would have come. Now I'm struggling to prepare something, which I wasn't planning to give away now."
"What's the big deal? Since you bought something to give her, it doesn't matter when you give it. Besides, how can you guarantee that what you give her is what she likes?"
The grandmother saw through his
thoughts. She knew Miles must have chosen the bracelet for Silvia. Otherwise, he wouldn't have known that brand, let alone pick the right style. By saying this, she just wanted to test Miles' thoughts, especially his feelings towards Silvia.
Hearing what his grandmother said, Miles looked at her seriously. "Grandma, the bracelet I gave her is definitely what she likes. I can guarantee it."
"I can't believe it. I didn't expect you to understand her so well. If you really understand her, go after her quickly. I think she doesn't hate you much. It's probably something you did before that made her a bit wary. Be careful from now on."
"I know, grandma. Let's go. Jimmy has been waiting for you at home. He said he wanted to go out with you today, but you came out by yourself."
"Why bring him to this kind of occasion? Besides, these people here are just superficially nice. I don't want him to have any contact with them so early. Let's go."
"
After exchanging a few more words
with Miles, the two of them got into their respective cars. The old lady couldn't help but think back to when she saw the two of them together. As for Miles, after hesitating for a while, he prepared to send a message to Silvia but was seen by
his grandmother.
"You're about to message Silvia, right? Let me tell you, you don't understand what girls like. If you like her, you wouldn't make her suspicious from the start. You'll have a lot to deal with in the future."
