SWNOVELS Chapter 491
Chapter 491 Side Story: Silvia and Spencer (9)
Bryant's attention was all on Silvia just now. Now that Spencer was
standing before Silvia, Bryant diverted his gaze to Spencer, who appeared to be a decent scholar.
Bryant raised his hand, indicating for the person who was pushing his wheelchair to stop.
His gaze only stayed on Spencer for a second before returning to Silvia.
"Shiloh, I have something to say to you.
"Just give me ten minutes, okay?"
Bryant's voice was very soft, but even so, the fear in Silvia's heart did not
diminish at all. Those unbearable memories of the past were like wild beasts, biting at her nerves.
Silvia did not speak and turned to leave but found that there appeared several men standing on the stairs. They seemed to be Bryant's subordinates.
Silvia only brought Paige with her, so it was impossible for her to break out of the encirclement at the moment.
Her face turned deathly pale as she lowered her head and grasped the hem of her clothes tightly. She didn't say a word.
Bryant looked at her with infatuation and coaxed, "Shiloh, turn around and let me see your face, okay?
"I just wanted to talk to you. I didn't mean to hurt you.
"Come here, please..."
Silvia mustered up the courage to interrupt him. "I have nothing to say to you. Let me leave."
Bryant controlled his wheelchair to slowly approach Silvia. He fixed his
gaze firmly at Silvia, looking awfully stubborn and frightening.
"Shiloh, I haven't seen you for a year. Don't you miss me?
"After you left, I've been thinking about you every day.
"Because of you, my legs have been broken. The past grudges should have been offset.
"Shiloh, let's start over again, okay?"
Bryant finally came to Silvia's side and reached out to grab her. "Shiloh..."
"Don't touch me!"
When Silvia sensed him getting closer, she immediately screamed sharply, as if she had gone crazy. Then she held her head and squatted down, her body trembling non-stop.
"Don't touch me. Leave me alone."
Silvia kept muttering as if she had been possessed.
She couldn't help but recall the broken and damp basement, the dim light, and her body stained with disgusting remains that Bryant had left behind.
Everything related to those days in her memory made her sick and desperate.
Bryant intended to reach out to touch her, but his hand was grasped and thrown to the side by Spencer.
"What do you want to do to my wife?" Spencer's handsome face exuded strong coldness and anger.
Bryant was injured, so Spencer wasn't very tough with him.
Otherwise, Spencer would have kicked Bryant when he approached Silvia.
"Who is your wife?" Bryant was stunned.
"Silvia," Spencer replied indifferently.
Bryant was completely dumbfounded when he heard this.
He said in disbelief, "It's impossible, I haven't heard about her marriage. You are lying to me!"
Spencer's tone was extremely cold. "Silvia and I just got married four days ago. We didn't invite you, so it's understandable that you didn't know it."
After Spencer finished speaking, he squatted down and held Silvia's shoulder, coaxing her in a soft voice, "Silvia, get up. Let's go home."
The last bit of reason that Silvia had made her know that Spencer was
helping her out. After a while, she nodded gently.
Spencer helped her up, took off his suit, covered her in the suit, and
protected her tightly in his arms.
Spencer did not smoke. So there was only the faint smell of detergent on
his suit.
Silvia was immersed in his breath, and the uneasiness in her heart was slightly relieved.
However, Bryant gazed at them maliciously, which was gloomy and scary.
When Spencer and Silvia took a step forward, the people behind Bryant stepped forward and blocked their way.
Spencer said coldly, "Mr. Tirrell, do you want to fight? With the current
situation of the Tirrell family, are you sure you want to stir up trouble in
public?"
At the time, the Tirrell family was falling day after day.
A year ago, under the joint suppression of Kael and Anaya, the Tirrell family almost failed to survive.
In addition to the exposure of many unspeakable secrets, the Tirrell family had been watched closely by the police.
However, the police had yet to get convincing evidence, so Bryant was not caught yet.
But if Bryant made trouble now, which equaled offering the police a reason to arrest him, along with Anaya's assistance to the police, Bryant might be imprisoned for the rest of his life.
It might even implicate Bryant's father and the entire Tirrell family.
Bryant closed his eyes and said in a muffled and trembling voice, "Let them
go."
After getting the order, the people behind Bryant immediately stepped aside to give way to Silvia and Spencer.
Spencer held Silvia and walked out. Bryant looked at the backs of the two as they walked away, and clenched his fingers tightly.
Silvia knew nothing about Bryant's reaction.
Even when they walked out of the gallery, her body was still trembling
slightly.
Spencer held her into the back seat of the car, and Paige got into the driver's seat and drove back home.
Spencer hugged Silvia and gently patted her back, coaxing her over and
over again. "It's okay now. We're going home. Everything will be fine."
After an unknown period, Silvia finally recovered from her previous nervousness. Her fingers tugged at the sleeves of Spencer's white shirt, indicating for him to let go of her. When Spencer let go of her, Silvia did not take off his suit to return it to him.
Instead, she wrapped herself even tighter in the suit, shrinking away from him to the other side. Silvia leaned against the car door, hugging herself tightly.
Her muffled voice came from the suit. "Thank you for what you did just now." She had already thanked him many times today.
Spencer said lightly, "It's fine."
The air in the car restored its previous silence. Silvia still huddled up and
leaned against the car door.
Spencer did not disturb her and only looked at her quietly.
Not long after, he received a text message from an unknown number on his
phone.
Although there was no name mentioned in the message, Spencer could tell that it was sent by Bryant.
"Silvia was once kept captive by me and was raped many times by me.
"Her body and heart are both branded by me.
"She can't forget me easily.
"She's mine.
"If you're a sensible man, you'd better take the initiative to divorce her. Or I
may do something horrible."
The first sentence of Bryant's message was to convince Spencer of Silvia's
filthy past and make Spencer hate her.
And Bryant sent the other words to declare his ownership of Silvia.
Spencer looked at the shocking content on the screen, and his grip on the phone tightened bit by bit as if he was about to crush the phone He finally understood why Silvia was so frightened and anxious when she
saw Bryant.
The last time, he met Silvia squatting on the ground and crying, which was probably because she had just seen Bryant.
Spencer had a calm and humble personality, and he rarely went mad. But at this moment, he wished he could find Bryant and kill him.
Just now in the gallery, Spencer had even felt pity for Bryant because of the
injuries on Bryant's legs.
Now it seemed that Bryant deserved it.
The car reached the Helms' villa. Silvia slowly got out of the car and
returned the suit to Spencer. Then she didn't say anything, just lowering her head and walking into the villa.
Paige said to Spencer, "Professor Marrow, thanks for the help today."
"It's okay. Take good care of Silvia. I'll leave now."
Paige nodded and immediately caught up with Silvia and helped her into
the villa.
Spencer looked at Silvia's back with great concern. Then he opened the car door, got in, and drove away.
