Silas was retching by the restroom basin, heaving all the tequila he'd drunk out
from his stomach.
His alcohol tolerance was the lowest among his siblings. Usually, he could barely
manage a sip of tequila.
Yet even after Silas had retched everything out, his mind was still heavy and
throat burning as if doused with acid.
"Look at yourself, Silas... Why are you still so worked up over her? She clearly
doesn't care about you at all," he mumbled to himself.
Silas splashed his face with some cold water and combed his fringe back with his
hands. Even in such a dire state, he was still remarkably handsome.
"I really am working myself up too much over this." Silas gently massaged his
temples, unable to stop feeling frustrated.
As he opened the door, he bumped right into someone else.
"Ah!" Rose gasped.
She had worn high heels that night, so her body rocked with the force and fell
backward.
Though Silas was still somewhat drunk, his speed was still exceptional. He
swiftly wrapped an arm around Rose and pushed her back up to her feet.
Their eyes met as their bodies pressed closed against one another, flushed.
Silas’ breathing quickened. He recalled the deep kiss that he'd had with Rose,
which started out as CPR. Silas still hadn't gotten over that until today.
Right now, he didn't want to let go of Rose.
"Can you. Let me go now?" Rose looked anxious. She instinctively pressed a
hand on Silas’ chest.
"Why. Why are you ignoring me?" Silas was usually a straightforward man. With
the addition of the alcohol earlier, his words, which he'd been holding back
tonight, were finally blurted out. "Don't we know each other already? Or are you
just forgetful?"
"How could I forget?" Rose's fingers curled slightly on Silas’ chest as she tried to
calm herself as best as she could. "You're the second son in the Taylor family,
Lyse's second brother."
"Then why are you ignoring me?" Silas persisted.
"I didn't bother to." Rose's eyes were dodgy.
Silas’ brows knitted together as the irritation in his chest grew. "Didn't. bother. to?
I'm probably the closest person to you in my family, next to Lyse. How could you
not bother to?"
"Mr. Silas, I don't have to say hi to every acquaintance of mine, do 1? It's not
illegal not to." Rose's heart clenched. She struggled in his arms. "Now let go. I
need to go back out there."
Silas grew angry, arm tightening around Rose's waist. "Every acquaintance?
Would you kiss your acquaintances, then? I'm afraid you have a
misunderstanding about the term acquaintance, Ms. Emerson."
"Kiss? When did we."
