CHAPTER 1181
When she was about to get off work after a busy day, Silvia received a phone call from Andrew. He said that he was busy at the moment so he could not go over to pick Silvia up, and that he had already requested for the driver to pick her up from the company.
Silvia was baffled. Andrew was a rich young master who was idle all day. All he had to do was spend money and hit on girls, so how could he be busy? However, she did not probe into the matter.
She knew very well that no matter how close they were, even if they were husband and wife, they would still need their own personal space.
By giving enough space to each other, they would not end up feeling suffocated and getting tired of each other in the long run. This way they could make this relationship last longer.
Silvia was the kind who absolutely needed her own personal space. When she went to bed, she would want to sleep in her own room and not in his arms every single night. Andrew was very strong, and would embrace Silvia so tightly as if he could crush her bones.
Most importantly, there was still someone in Silvia's heart. Before she was ready to confess to him about it, she would need a tiny space to hide her thoughts away from him.
When Silvia came out of the company, the driver, Terry Fuller was already waiting for her at the entrance. The moment he saw Silvia coming out, he hurriedly greeted her. "Madam..."
However, before he could even finish his words, Silvia immediately gave him a warning look. "Uncle Fuller, didn't I tell you that you can call me anything you like, but not 'Madam'?"
Silvia did not want anyone to address her as 'Madam' because she had not figured out the relationship between her and Andrew. Besides, she was somewhat unwilling to accept the identity as someone's wife at such a young age.
She was only twenty years old. Twenty years old! She should be full of youth and vitality. Why would she be willing to let a man declare sovereignty over her at such a young age?
Terry said, "Okay, Madam!" Silvia was speechless.
Andrew's subordinates were indeed loyal to him. They would do whatever Andrew had asked them to do and they would never speak carelessly in front of Silvia.
To think about it, in order to have such loyal and tight-Iipped subordinates, Andrew must have some commendable qualities which they could look up to. However, Silvia still had not noticed any of those qualities in Andrew.
No. In fact, she did. The only good quality that she had noticed in him was his strong stamina when he was in bed. D‘mn it, it was like he would never get tired. Even Silvia, who was young and strong, could not keep up with him at all.
Thinking of Andrew's outstanding stamina, Silvia blushed. She quickly got in the car and said, "Uncle Fuller, thanks for coming to pick me up!"
Just like how it was lately, Silvia would go back to Mrs. Turner's place after work to accompany her.
Andrew had only given her two hours. No more, no less. So, Silvia would cherish the precious time that she had gotten and once she was home, she would tell her mother everything that had happened at the company that day.
Silvia was very satisfied with Wayne's performance at the meeting. When she returned home, she immediately told her mother about it. “Mom, I think it's because of all the good deeds that Dad had done in the past that luck is starting to get on our side now."
Looking at Silvia's excited look, Mrs. Turner was happy too. "My dear, did something good happen today? Tell me!"
Silvia took over the flower tea that Mrs. Turner had handed to her and took a huge gulp. Then, she said, "Mom, I feel like I'm on a roll recently. I've already found someone who could help us manage the company."
Mrs. Turner said, "Has Uncle Bachman promised to return to the company to work?"
"No, it's not Uncle Bachman." Silvia shook her head and said excitedly, "Mom, I‘ll give you two more chances."
Mrs. Turner thought for a moment and said, "My dear, I really can‘t think of anyone. Don't keep me guessing. Just tell me who it is already."
Silvia put down the cup and cleared her throat before saying, "Mom, when l was in trouble, Uncle Bachman couldn't help me, but he introduced someone to me. That person was originally an inconspicuous employee in our company, so if it wasn't for Uncle Bachman's recommendation, I definitely wouldn't have noticed him. And after a careful observation, it was no doubt that he was a capable employee. His understanding of the company was even better than mine and it was because of his help that my work had gone quite smoothly nowadays."
It was a good thing that someone was helping her daughter, but Mrs. Turner was somewhat worried. "Silvia, can this person be trusted?"
Because of what they had gone through with Norman, it was inevitable that Mrs. Turner would be worried. If even a relative could steal the company away from them, let alone anyone else.
Silvia reassured, "Morn, you don't have to worry about it. Although I appreciate his talent, I won't get carried away by it. Of course, I've looked into him before trusting him. I have not even settled all the damage that Norman had caused to the company, so how can I make the same mistake again?"
“Okay then. As long as you trust him, I will trust him too." Mrs. Turner caressed Silvia's head. She was distressed as she looked at her daughter who had lost quite a bit of weight in such a short period of time. "Silvia, since you've just come back after work, let's not talk about work now. Let me go prepare some delicious food for you."
"Being able to come home to home cooked meals is really the happiest moment of my day.” Silvia made an exaggerated look on her face and went to the kitchen with her mother. However, little did she know that the delicious food her mother was referring to was actually a vegan sandwich and some salad. Silvia could not even see a tiny bit of meat in them.
"Mom, are you sure that this is the delicious food that you've prepared for me?" Silvia was almost starting to suspect if the person in front of her was still her biological mother. Why did Mrs. Turner change everything all of a sudden?
Mrs. Turner broke into a gentle smile and said, "When I was in the hospital, Auntie Baker, who lived next to my ward, is a nutritionist. She told me that human bodies need different macro and micronutrients every day. Therefore, we should make sure that we have a balanced diet by having a variety of food in a meal, and everything must be at an appropriate ratio. So, you mustn't be picky with your food or else it will affect your growth."
"Affect my growth? Mom, I'm an adult now, I can't grow anymore..." That was what Silvia said, but at the same time, she had instinctively lowered her head and looked at her chest.
Speaking of which, Silvia couldn't figure out what her body was made of. She had been eating huge meals every single day but her body would still stay skinny. She could never get that curvy body. Even that b‘stard Andrew had teased her for being flat-chested.
Silvia was angry as she thought about it. How could he complain about her having small boobs after taking advantage of her? She didn't even complain that he had a small d‘ck, so how could he say that about her?
"Of course, these are not enough for my daughter." Mrs. Turner lifted the pot lid and the scent of the meat stew rushed into Silvia's nostrils. "This is the main dish I've prepared for you.”
Looking at the meat in the pot, Silvia held her mother in her arms and said with a smile, "Mom, you're really my biological mother. I knew it!"
"Oh, so you're saying if I don't let you eat meat, then you‘re not my child then?" Mrs.Turner poked Silvia's head and said, "Let's hurry up and eat now, or else you'll have to go home before you‘re done eating."
Mrs. Turner wanted her daughter to stay by her side, but now that her daughter was married, she knew that she could not keep Silvia by her side all the time. Mrs. Turner was already very content that Silvia could come home and have a meal together.
CHAPTER 1182
Ring...
Silvia and Mrs. Turner had just sat down for dinner when a phone call came in. It was Andrew. Silvia glanced at her mother and Mrs. Turner chuckled and said, "See, what did I just tell you?"
Silvia said, "Mom..."
Mrs. Turner said, "Hurry up and pick it up! If you don't, he's going to come over to the house to capture you."
Silvia answered the phone call. “Are you done with your work already?"
"Not yet." Andrew's low voice sounded in Silvia‘s ear. His voice did not sound as calm and powerful as it usually was. Instead, he sounded a little tired.
"Why are you calling me if you are still busy then? You should get back to work now." She was still waiting for him to pick her up, so she did not want him to waste precious time on the phone with her.
Andrew's voice sounded from the phone again. "Silvia, I'm calling you to tell you that I won't be going back home tonight. I'll get the driver to pick you up later."
"Oh..." Silvia responded in disappointment, and then said, "It's okay. You can go do whatever you have to do. I'll stay at my mom's place tonight then."
Silvia had already gotten used to Andrew driving her around. Now that he couldn't come, Silvia felt like something was missing in her heart. However, she wasn‘t sure what that feeling was. In short, she just felt like she had a lump in her throat.
“Okay. Make sure you rest early." Andrew, who was on the other end of the phone, did not say anything else after that. After a moment of silence, Silvia hung up the phone.
Seeing that Silvia was a little down after the phone call, Mrs. Turner immediately comforted her, “Silvia, it's normal for men to be busy with work and not go home. Your father used to go on business trips too.”
"Mom, he's just a rich kid who doesn't need to work for a living. His father is in charge of everything in his family, what kind of work does he have to do?" Silvia did not want to overthink, but she just could not control her mind. "Mom, do you think that he's cheating on me?"
Looking at her jealous daughter, Mrs. Turner couldn't help laughing and said, "Aw, just look at you. Are you becoming a green-eyed monster?"
Silvia waved her hand and denied, “What kind of nonsense is that, Mom? Why would I get jealous because of him? Who does he think he is?“
Mrs. Turner brought another bowl of stew over and said with a smile, "Did I say that you were jealous? Are you admitting it yourself?"
Silvia stamped her feet anxiously. "Mom..."
Mrs. Turner put the bowl of stew in front of Silvia and advised her patiently, "Silvia, we get jealous because we care about that person. But you should learn to stop getting jealous for no reason. You have to learn to trust him, do you understand that?"
Silvia suddenly felt that the stew that her mother had cooked for her no longer tasted delicious. She said dejectedly, "This is the first time he's not coming home... l.. I'm just worried about him."
Mrs. Turner smiled and said, "Silly child, you should tell him that you're worried about him then. Otherwise, how would he know?"
After listening to her mother's advice, Silvia went into the room and called Andrew on the phone. However, no one picked up the phone. Silvia tried to call him again...
At the seventh call, the line finally connected. Before Andrew could even say anything, Silvia said in an anxious voice, "Andrew, where did you go? Why aren't you answering my call?"
“I'm busy!" Andrew merely spat out these words and fell silent.
Andrew's attitude towards her was so cold! Silvia couldn't bring herself to say any caring words to him. "I..."
“Sir..." Stanley's voice suddenly came from the other side of the phone. However, in the next second, it was silent again. Silvia pricked up her ears and tried to listen to their conversation. However, she could not hear anything at all. Instead, Andrew's voice spoke again, "If there's nothing else, I'll have to hang up now. Make sure you rest well."
"Did something happen?" Silvia wanted to ask him, but before she could say anything, Andrew had already hung up the phone and all she could hear was the busy tone coming through the phone.
Silvia wanted to call him to ask about it, but she was afraid that she would bother him. After thinking for a while, she sent him a Whatsapp message. "Young Master Carter, did something happen? Do you need my help?"
When Silvia's message came in, Andrew was still in a meeting, trying to come out with a countermeasure to cope with an emergency that came up that day. He was tied-up at that moment but when he saw these two short lines, his heart warmed up in an instant.
How could this silly girl, who didn't even know anything, be of any help? She couldn't help him with anything, but her concern for him was enough to keep him going. He raised the corner of his mouth and replied, "Yes!"
Soon, Silvia replied, "What can I do for you?"
"Go home and warm the bed for me!" Andrew quickly typed a short message with his slender fingers. As soon as he tapped on the "send" button, someone barged into the conference room and said, “Sir, the matter got exposed to the public."
A big brawl had taken place in a Phantasy Nightclub that Andrew owned and the number of casualties was at 13 people. If this incident was exposed to the public, Andrew would definitely suffer enormous losses, and that was why he had called for a meeting.
Although the incident was being exposed to the public now, no one was panicking. All of them had gone through countless vicissitudes under their boss' lead. Therefore, such a small incident could not scare them at all.
Someone immediately thought of a solution and said, "Sir, I'll go to the Network Supervision Department and ask the team to remove all the posts that are relevant to this incident. We must not let this incident continue to affect us."
However, someone rebuked, "I don't think we should do that. We would never be able to remove everything that has gotten on the Internet. Also, if we were to do that, the public and the media might use the opportunity to kick up a fuss about it and things might end up worse than now."
Everyone who was present at the meeting expressed their opinions. In the end, Andrew made a decision and said, "Hand in all the evidence that we have at hand and cooperate with the police in the investigation."
After hearing Andrew's words, someone immediately understood what he meant. "Sir, do you mean that we should make amends for what we have done? You can rest assured, we will make the public stand on our side and we will eventually become the biggest beneficiary of this incident."
Andrew nodded. No matter how serious the situation was, his interests could not be violated.
Silvia's uneasy heart was finally at ease when she saw Andrew's flirtatious message. If he still had the mood to speak in such a manner, it probably meant that he was alright.
"Silvia... are you done calling him?" Mrs. Turner knocked on Silvia‘s door. "The stew is getting cold. If you don't eat it now, it won‘t taste as nice anymore."
Silvia opened the door and came out of the room. "Okay Mom, I'll go finish them up now."
Seeing that her daughter's mood had gotten better, Mrs. Turner added, "Silvia, when are you bringing Andrew home to introduce him to me?"
Silvia almost choked on the stew when she heard what her mother said. "Mom, it's not the right timing yet. When the timing is right, I will bring him over to see you."
Mrs. Turner knew what Silvia was worried about. Although she really wanted to meet her son-in-law and get to know him, she should take Silvia's feelings into account. Hence, Mrs. Turner said, "It's okay, I can wait."
"I'm sorry, Mom!" Silvia felt that she was an unfilial daughter. Her mother only had one child and now that she was already married, she still could not bring her husband home to meet her mother. Although her mother did not mention it, Silvia knew that her mother was worried about her.
CHAPTER 1183
"My silly child, as long as you're happy, I'll be happy.“ Mrs. Turner picked up some salad and put them on Silvia's plate as she continued, "Your father and I always wanted you to be happy for all your life, Silvia. Promise me you'll treat yourself right."
"Mom, I will. I won't let you worry, and I'll make sure Daddy rests in peace in heaven." Nowadays, Silvia had been putting a lot of effort into managing Wateria Corporation and also in her studies. She was working so hard to enrich herself and boost her qualifications in order to make her way to the upper rungs of society. When she finally got there, no matter would be by her side, she would be confident in herself and no longer have to worry that she would not be good enough for him.
Mrs. Turner said, "Okay, hurry up and eat. You shouldn't go home too late."
Silvia said, "Mom, why are you not asking me to stay for the night? I want to stay here and accompany you."
Although she said that she wanted to stay with her mother, Silvia's mind was completely occupied by what Andrew had said to her a while ago. He wanted her to warm the bed for him. Silvia was willing to do this for him, but he was not at home anyway. So what was the use of warming up the bed for him then?
Mrs. Turner said, "Ask you to stay for the night? Well, I can do that, but I'm afraid that your mind will probably wander somewhere else."
Silvia said, "Mom..."
Mrs. Turner said, "Alright, hurry up and eat. Don't deny it!"
Silvia indeed could not deny it. Mrs. Turner was her mother after all. She knew what her daughter was thinking.
Ring...
Right after the two had finished dinner, Andrew called Silvia on the phone again. Silvia answered, "Young Master Carter, what's the matter?"
Andrew said, "I want to see you at the entrance of the residential area in five minutes."
"Who is he to order me around like this?" Silvia was displeased. However, she still picked up her bag and ran towards the door as she shouted, “Mom, I'm going off now. I'll come over tomorrow."
When Mrs. Turner ran to the door, Silvia had already gotten into the elevator. Mrs. Turner could only mutter, "Slow down, Silvia. Be careful, don't fall down.“
......
Silvia ran to the entrance of the condominium as fast as she could, but she was still late for nearly two minutes. However, Andrew was not there yet.
"Huh, this b‘stard!" Silvia was so angry that she sneered. So this man was just messing around with her. When she was about to take out her mobile phone to call him and curse at him, she saw Andrew driving his luxury car towards her. Then, with a sudden brake, the car stopped right in front of her.
He wound down the car window and said, "Get in the car!"
Looking at his arrogant look, Silvia was infuriated. She refused to cooperate with him, "No."
"No?" Andrew unfastened his seat belt, opened the door, and got out of the car. He took two steps forward and stood before Silvia. He grabbed her by the waist and carried her into his arms. And in the next second, he stuffed her into the passenger seat and fastened the seat belt for her.
Silvia wanted to unfasten her seat belt. "I mean it when I said I don't want to get in your car. I also mean it when I said I'm not going back home with you. I said that I want to stay with my mother. Are you deaf or something?"
Andrew grabbed her hand which was trying to unfasten the seat belt and placed his left hand on her head. As he pinned her against the car seat, he lowered his head and kissed her aggressively.
"Mm..." Silvia widened her eyes and glared at him.
Andrew was pressing her against the passenger seat with half of his body still outside of the car as he kissed her overbearingly. The entrance of the condominium was a public area with people passing by. What if those people saw them? What would they think?!
Silvia once again tried to push him away, but she couldn't. This man didn't care about anyone's opinion at all. It was only when Silvia was lightheaded from the overbearing kiss that he had let go of her.
"Andrew, you..." Silvia was about to fling her fist at him, but Andrew grabbed onto her hand in time. Then, he lifted her chin and pressed his thumb on her red lips as he whispered to her flirtatiously, "Whatever you say is not what you really feel! Why can't you just admit that you like it when I do this to you?"
Now that Andrew had seen through her, SiIvia wished that she could just dig a hole and hide in it. She raised her hand and punched him. "What nonsense are you saying? I never said I like it! I'm warning you, you'd better stop this nonsense, or I will beat you up ."
"So you said that you don't want to go home with me? And you want to stay with your mother? Then why did you come out so quickly right after receiving my call?“ Andrew looked at her and waited for her answer.
Seeing that Silvia wanted to avoid his question, Andrew turned her face towards him and said, "Answer me, Silvia!"
"If I don't come out on time, you'd probably skin my alive." She definitely could not tell him that she did it out of instinct. She did not even know why she ran out so quickly.
"I won't skin you. I'll only kiss you until you give in.“ Andrew lowered his head again and kissed her overbearingly. It was so overbearing that it felt like he was going to suck her soul away.
Just as Silvia felt that her soul was about to leave her body, Andrew finally let go of her and pinched her red lips. "Silvia, I want you to remember this feeling. If you dare to disobey me again in the future, you will be punished like this."
Silvia touched her blushing face and thought to herself, "Come punish me like this every single day if you can then. I'm not scared of you."
...............
On the way back home, Andrew suddenly suggested, "Silvia, why don't you ask your mother to move into the villa next to ours? Then, it will be more convenient for you to visit her in the future."
Andrew had put forward this suggestion, mainly because he felt bad for his wife. He did not want her to tire herself out by traveling between two places every day. More importantly, if Silvia were to get into a fight with him, she would not be out of his reach.
Upon hearing his proposal, Silvia immediately kept her guard up. "Andrew, what are you plotting this time? I'm telling you, that's my mother. If you dare to lay a finger on her, I'll definitely kill you."
Jayden was flabbergasted.
He really could never figure out what this silly woman was thinking. He was only making a suggestion, but she just wouldn't fail to overthink.
Seeing Andrew's displeased look, Silvia knew that she might really be overthinking, so she explained, "Young Master Carter, have you not heard that home is where the heart is? Although our house is not as luxurious as your villa, it's still something that my father had left for us. It's our own house, and my mother is comfortable staying there."
Andrew didn't know what to say. He decided to ignore this foolish woman. Knowing that she had already made him angry, Silvia moved closer to him and tried to find a topic to talk about. "By the way, Young Master Carter, there's one thing that I wanted to ask you."
Andrew was still silent.
He did not say anything, but Silvia knew that he was listening, so she continued, “Ever since I've taken over the company, I've found out that there were a lot of things that I don't understand. I felt like I didn't learn anything at all from school or from my father. I just realized that I'm actually a useless person."
Silvia deliberately spoke in a strangled voice. Sure enough, Andrew was affected by her emotions. He stretched out his right hand and held her hand to comfort her. "Don't worry, just take it slowly. No one is born to know everything, but we can learn them step by step and gain experience through it. And when you finally have enough experience, you will realize that such matters are as simple as ABC.“
Now that her motive was achieved, Silvia smiled covertly. "That's easy for you to say. All you do is fool around and you never had to worry about money your whole life. How would you know how difficult it was to manage a company?"
Andrew was once again at a loss for words.
Could he tell her that if it wasn't for him, she would never have gotten back Wateria Corporation? Could he tell her that if it wasn't for him, Norman would not have been convicted for his crimes?
Could he tell her that he was actually the legendary Old Mr. Carter that all those rumors were about? Or could he tell her that in fact, he had endless work to attend to every single day?
CHAPTER 1184
Andrew really wanted to tell Silvia all these things, but he could not. In Silvia's view, Andrew and herself were not equals in their relationship.
Therefore, if Silvia was to know about all the things that he had done for her behind her back, it would definitely intensify the inferiority she felt in the relationship.
"I discovered a talented employee. He gave me a lot of good suggestions, but I don't know whether I should trust him..." Silvia looked at Andrew and said, “It's not that I want to have any doubts in anyone, but once bitten twice shy! I'm just afraid that I would end up trusting the wrong person, and Wateria Corporation would be taken away from me again. If that really happened, I think I will never ever going to get it back again. If the company collapsed in my hands, I would be too ashamed to meet my father in heaven when I die."
"I see. What kind of person is he?" Wayne was someone whom Andrew had planted by Silvia's side. He knew much more about Wayne than she did, and Wayne was someone she could absolutely trust. However, Andrew just could not tell her about that.
Silvia said, "You've seen him actually. It's the man who I met up with at the café a few days ago. His name is Wayne Zachary and he has been working in Wateria Corporation for a few years now. He was an ordinary employee but someone recommended him to me, and that's how I found out about him."
Andrew comforted her and said, "Don't think too much about it. Just leave this matter to me. I'll help you look into his background and see if he's trustworthy."
Silvia smiled and said, "Thank you Young Master Carter, I knew that you would help me! If it weren't for you, I wouldn't know what to do most of the time."
Andrew said, "I'm your man. if I don't help you, who would? You don't have to be so courteous..."
Silvia said sweetly, "No matter who it is, I should thank those who had helped me. This is just a basic courtesy."
Andrew did not say anything else. As long as she was happy, she could do whatever she wanted.
After they arrived home, Silvia hurriedly turned on her laptop and started working. In order to bring Wateria Corporation back on its track, she was doing the best she could. However, the outcome was not what she had expected.
Silvia was so engrossed with her work that she could not even hear Andrew who was calling her repeatedly, which made Andrew somewhat unhappy. If he had known that she would be like this, he would not have returned the company to her. If she had nothing to do all day long, then her attention would only be on him.
The more he thought about it, the more annoyed he was. Hence, he snatched the laptop in her hand away from her and said, “You should stop working for today. Go take a bath now and go to bed earlier.“
"I still don't quite understand some parts of this contract. if I don't read it and understand it properly, how am I going to discuss it during the meeting tomorrow?" Silvia wanted to grab the laptop, but Andrew did not give it back to her.
Silvia started to feel a little anxious and said, “Can you not mess around now? This is not a joke or something. This is my job and there are a few hundreds of people who are depending on me."
For Wateria Corporation's sake, Silvia was giving her all. She wanted to accomplish great achievements after taking over the company and she wanted the others to see that she would not disappoint her father. She also wanted to prove to her father that she was an outstanding person.
Seeing that she was being so serious, Jayden decided to help her. "Which part do you not understand?“
Although he might not understand it too, it would still be better than having her trying to figure it all out by herself. Silvia pointed to one of the terms of the contract and said, "This one. I don't quite understand what it's saying."
When it comes to work, Andrew would never mess around. When Silvia asked him, he would explain it to her seriously. Looking at the solemn look on Andrew's face, Silvia felt as if she had never really known him.
In life, he was often a shameless person, and he really liked to get down to doing those dirty things with her.
He had made love to her almost everywhere in his villa. However, when he was dealing with work, he would always be so serious and everything that he said made a lot of sense too.
Silvia listened to him seriously and gave him a thumbs-up to compliment him. "Young Master Carter, to be honest, I'm quite curious about you sometimes. You are just a rich kid who does nothing all day, how can you analyze things so clearly and logically? To some extent, I even feel that you're more capable than Wayne is."
"Well, I might not have done much, but I've probably seen it or heard about it more than most people." Andrew stroked her head and continued, “Do you have any more questions? If not, then you should go take a bath and get a good rest now. it's going to be a busy day for you tomorrow."
"I don't have any more questions for now. I have classes tomorrow, and I have to go over to the company after that. Yeah, it's going to be quite a busy day for me. Okay, I'm going to take a bath now and go to bed early. Otherwise, I won't be able to wake up early.“ After the matter was resolved, Silvia put her laptop away, got up, and went into the bathroom, leaving Andrew all by himself. Andrew, on the other hand, was gnashing his teeth, feeling extremely annoyed.
It did not feel good at all that Silvia had ignored him over and over again. However, he could not bear to pester her anymore. Silvia had not slept well for the past few days, so he had to let her rest up or else such an hectic schedule is going to take a toll on her body sooner or later.
Just as Silvia had stepped into the bathroom, Andrew took out his mobile phone and sent a text message. "She has a good impression of you. You should continue the hard work and gain her full trust as soon as possible."
As long as Wayne could gain Silvia's trust, Silvia would be at ease to let him manage the company for her and only then would she have the time to accompany her husband.
Wayne replied promptly, "Sir, I will continue to work hard and I will never let you and Miss Turner down."
There were not many who knew that Silvia and Andrew were a married couple. On top of that, because Andrew and Silvia had not announced their relationship to the public, everyone would still address Silvia as Miss Turner.
Looking at this salutation, Andrew furrowed his brows. Andrew never liked to have unnecessary conversations with his subordinates, but he still replied, "She is my wife."
Usually, their Boss would never say anything else after he had made his orders. Therefore, after replying the initial message, Wayne threw his mobile phone aside and lay down on the sofa, thinking about what to do next. He had to be careful so that Silvia would not find anything suspicious about him.
Just as he was thinking about this matter, his mobile phone rang again. It was a text message. He picked up the phone and saw that it was his Boss.
On the screen, there were only four words, but it was enough to make Wayne shudder. It seemed like his Boss was not very dissatisfied with the way he was addressing Silvia.
Therefore, Wayne immediately replied, "Sir, from now on I will pay attention to what I say in front of Mrs. Carter at all times."
After sending the message, Wayne immediately edited Andrew's name in his contacts. He used to save his number as 'Mr. Carter, but now he had changed it to 'Call His Wife Mrs. Carter."
So that whenever he saw the name, he would not make the same mistake again.
CHAPTER 1185
Silvia came out of the bathroom after her shower and saw that Andrew was still there. She immediately looked at him vigilantly and asked, "Andrew, why are you still in my room?"
"What do you think? Why am I still in your room?" When she needed his help, she would behave coquettishly in front of him. The way she called him Young Master Carter was just so pleasant to the ears. However, now that she was done using him, she immediately turned her back on him and spoke to him in such a hostile manner. Andrew thought that this woman just wanted to get punished!
"Why would I know...? Can you go back to your room now? I'm going to bed soon." As she had expected, this man really had inexhaustible energy. It seemed like he would not be able to fall asleep if he did not do something with her at night.
He had nothing to do all day so he had nowhere to expend his energy. On the other hand, Silvia was busy for the whole day. She was so tired that she did not have any more energy left to do anything else with him.
"You don't know?" Andrew asked with a smile. Looking at the naughty look on his face, Silvia was irritated. However, she felt that he was also somewhat attractive at the same time.
D*mn it! How could she think that this man was attractive? He was clearly an annoying devil.
Silvia knew that she would always be the one who would suffer if she was to play hardball with him. So, she immediately deployed a gentle approach. "My most beloved and handsome Young Master Carter, I'm really tired recently. I really don't have the energy for anything else. Can you please be a little more considerate of me?"
Andrew knew what she was trying to do, so he immediately got up and walked towards her. As he had expected, she was so scared that she kept retreating, "Young Master Carter, I'm really tired. Please let me go this time!"
With a cold face, Andrew slowly forced her to the corner of the room and pressed her against the wall. "Silly woman, what do you think I am?"
A beast!
Andrew, the beast! What else could she take him for?
That was what she thought about him, but she did not dare to say it out loud. Therefore, she could only tell him a little white lie, "You are the kindest person in this world. I believe that you will be considerate of me, right?"
"Hmph... Don't think that I don't know what you're thinking." Andrew lowered his head and breathed a warm breath into her ear. "Silvia, if I didn't do anything to you, would you be disappointed?"
"Why would I be disappointed?" Silvia widened her eyes in surprise. "Andrew, why are you looking at me like this? Do you think that I'm that kind of person?"
Well, Silvia could not make up any more excuses. When he got close to her, she was really hoping that he would actually do something to her.
After living with Andrew for quite some time, Silvia had unconsciously become as shameless as him, thinking about all those dirty things all the time.
Just as Silvia was full of expectations, Andrew let go of her. "Since you don't want me to do anything to you, then you should go to sleep then. I won't bother you anymore."
And he left! He left, just like that! He left, without a trace!
Looking at the door which was tightly shut, Silvia really wanted to scream her lungs out. How could he do this to her? He was leading her on and now that he had successfully aroused her, he left.
"What a b*stard! F*cking b*stard! I'll remember what you did to me today. I will definitely get back at you one day." Silvia lay down on the bed and cursed at him.
Because of the fatigue, Silvia ended up falling asleep while cursing at Andrew. However, she was not sleeping soundly.
In her dreams, Norman was pointing a gun at her and he was speaking to her in an eerie tone. "Silvia, I haven't seen you in a while. Could you still recognize me?"
Her greatest enemy was just right in front of her, and he was even pointing a gun at her. Silvia had nowhere to hide at all, so she was so terrified that her body was stiff all over. "Norman Turner, aren't you in jail now? Why are you here?“
Norman sneered and said, "Do you think that they can look me up? Do you think that Wateria Corporation is yours now? Silvia, you've grown up, but your IQ hasn't improved at all."
Norman's words surprised Silvia. "What do you mean?!"
"Silvia, do you think that the people in Madison City dare to do anything to me? Do you know who took away Wateria Corporation? Hahaha... I guess that you don't know a thing at all!" Norman burst out laughing. However, as he was laughing hysterically, he was slowly turning into Andrew's appearance.
"An... Andrew? How could it be you?" Silvia was not willing to believe it, but the person who was pointing a gun at her now was indeed Andrew.
He had the same facial features, the same clothes, and the same smile. It was definitely him. She definitely had not mistaken someone else for him.
"Yes, it's me! It's me! You've never expected that I would be the mastermind behind all of these, have you?" Andrew was also laughing, and his laugh was extremely terrifying. He was no longer the man who Silvia was familiar with.
The Andrew who she was familiar with was cold, sharp-tongued, and sometimes a little overbearing... However, he had never been so terrifying. At this moment, he looked exactly like a demon that had broken out from hell.
"No, no, no... it's not you. How could it be you? You will never do that. This isn't real, all of these must be just a hallucination..." Silvia shook her head and retreated, trying to get herself out of this nightmare.
Andrew was the person who had saved her when she was at her most helpless state. How could he be the mastermind behind all of it?
No way, no way... It must not be him, it must not be him. This was her dream, it was just a dream, it was all fake!
"It was me who did it!" As his voice sounded, a gunshot was released. The bullet pierced through her body and fresh blood squirted onto her face.
"No..." Silvia woke up from her nightmare with her body covered in cold sweat.
This dream was too terrifying. She dreamed that Wateria Corporation was being taken away from her again, and the person who did it was... Andrew.
"Silvia, what‘s wrong?" Before she could completely calm down, Andrew's voice suddenly sounded in her ears.
Silvia opened her eyes and saw Andrew's face in front of her eyes. She was so scared that she rushed backward and accidentally hit her head against the wall. "Who are you? What do you want?"
At that moment, she could not even bother about the pain in her head as she tried to get away from him as far as she could. She was like a porcupine flashing its spines, refusing to let anyone get close to her.
"Who do you think I am?" Without her sleeping in his arms, Andrew couldn't fall asleep at all. Therefore, he sneaked into her room again. However, he did not expect that before he could even get onto her bed, he could see Silvia waking up from a nightmare.
"Who the hell are you? Don't come over here! Don't come near me!" Silvia shrilled. She grabbed the pillow on the bed and threw it at Andrew who was approaching her.
"I'm your man!" Andrew caught the pillow and got onto the bed. Then, he lay beside her and held her in his arms. "Silvia, you just had a nightmare. It's just a dream. Wake up. I'm here with you. I won't let anyone hurt you."
A dream? Was that just a dream?" Why did the dream seem so surreal? It felt so real that she did not dare to accept what had just happened.
