Chapter 151: His Brother, His Hero,

When Silas entered his room, he clenched his fist, his heart pounding hard. It had taken a lot of restraint to keep himself from touching Ivy.

She looked like she hadn't slept all night, and his chest squeezed with pain.

He began to pace around his room, discomfort settling in his stomach.

"It's just a misunderstanding, he said out loud. "You're not even that hurt?

He shook his head. He wasn't even that pained, he knew Mason was a dickhead, he shouldn't have made it a big deal

"Ivy?" he knocked. "Ivy? Baby, I'm sorry."

But there was no response.

He stood there for five minutes before Monica found him.

"She's not home, sir," Monica said.

"Some moments ago," she replied.

"Alright, thank you," he said with a small nod and walked away.

He had no idea what Cole had been doing in his house but now that Ivy had left with him, Silas was curious.

Immediately he returned to his room, he heard his phone ring. He located it on his bed and picked it up. Wade was on the line.

"Hey Wade," Silas said, his heart suddenly pounding with dread.

Wade had been avoiding his call night and day and now that he was calling willingly, Silas wasn't sure whether to be happy

or troubled.

"Hey, Silas," Wade said softly. "Sorry I missed your calls, I have been busy." "Okay. How is Thomas?"

Wade sighed before he spoke. "He's not doing so well, Silas. But he's ready to see you."

Silas's heart flipped. "Give me the address. I am heading there right away." Wade gave it to him. "Thanks," he said, ending
