Sweet Revenge

Chapter 224

Chapter 224 With Simon, Silvia Is Afraid of Nothing 
The weather was getting colder. It was snowing at night. However, it did not snow much all year round in LA. Even if it did, it would only snow lightly. The snow fell on the trees and formed a thin layer. But it melted before it could form a thicker layer.
After leaving LA and heading to Boston, the scenery on the way could be seen changing.
To be exact, the snow in LA was mixed with rain. The rain was mixed with snow particles, which looked crystal clear. But it was different in Boston. The further they went forward, the bigger the snow became. There were no longer snow particles but large snowflakes. The thickness of the snow on the ground was getting greater. When they were about to reach Austin’s manor, the thickness of the snow on the side of the road could reach one’s ankle.
“Boston is not far from LA. I didn’t expect their scenery to be so different. It is snowing so heavily here.”
After getting out of the car, Silvia stretched out her hand and caught a snowflake.
The snowflakes fell on Silvia’s head, shoulders, and palms. But they did not melt immediately. Silvia had not seen snow for many years. Now, standing in the snow, she was in a much better mood.
– “It’s right there. You haven’t been back for a long time, right?” Simon placed a shawl on Silvia’s shoulders and
handed her a cup of hot cocoa.
There was a heat preservation pot in the car, and the hot cocoa was very fragrant. Although it was not as good as home, Silvia still felt comfortable.
Silvia took a sip of hot cocoa and nodded.
After thinking for a while, she replied, “About six to seven years!”.
Since Silvia went to college, she hadn’t come back. Anyway, she usually stayed in school, and she had to do experiments during the holidays. She had to check the information and go to different places to collect information about the local culture. Anyway, she could always find an excuse to not come back.
If Silvia didn’t come back, Marc would definitely not persuade her. Marc once said, “If she doesn’t come back, then she doesn’t have to come back. Do I have to force her to come back?”
Silvia also felt that her grandfather did not dote on her too much. In her memory, there was endless training, learning, and all kinds of tests. She could not rest even at home. She rarely had a chance to sleep peacefully.
At that time, Silvia felt that her mother had passed away, and her grandfather didn’t love her anymore. Most importantly, Silvia thought Marc might blame Silvia’s mother’s death on Silvia. That was why Marc was not close to
Silvia.
When Silvia was young, she might still hope to feel the warmth of her family. But after she grew up, she would stop thinking about it. She only hoped to escape from the Austin family as well as its suffocating environment. Silvia wanted to live freely, even if she had to live alone.
Now, when Silvia thought of the break-up with her family, she thought it should start when she officially established a relationship with Ladarius,
Marc had always been indifferent to Silvia. When Marc found out that Silvia was in a relationship with an ordinary young man, he suddenly flew into a rage and wanted Silvia to break up with that young man. At that time, Silvia’s heart was filled with resistance and rebellion. The more Marc disagreed, the more Silvia wanted to be with Ladarius. As a result, Silvia cut off all ties with Marc at that time…
“Silvia. Silvia?” After Simon called Silvia twice, Silvia came back to her senses and turned to look at Simon.
Simon’s eyes were filled with worry. He asked, “Did you just think of the past?”
silvia smiled and nodded.
Simon said, “If you are unhappy and don’t want to face it, we can go back.”
Silvia said, “No need. I haven’t been back for a long time. It’s time to go and visit grandpa.” Silvia thought she had already left here for so long. Was she really going to cut off all ties with her family for a lifetime? No. Now that Silvia was with Simon, she thought she should tell her family about this matter sooner or later. It didn’t matter if they wanted to know it or not.
“Then let’s go!” Seeing Silvia’s insistence, Simon took the empty cup and threw it into the trash can in the car.
Silvia smiled and held Simon’s hand tightly. Silvia thought she was afraid of nothing when standing by Simon’s side.
The distance was not long, and they soon arrived at the entrance of Austin’s manor.
Austin’s manor was not in the city center. To be exact, it was in the suburbs. It occupied a large suburban area and was
next to a mountain and river. It was said that this was a prosperous place.
Silvia didn’t remember when the Austin family took root in this place. After so many years, it was already hard to remember. It was also a legend that the Austin family was an ancient martial arts family, and it was passed down from generation to generation. As for whether the Austin family really knew martial arts or not, no one had seen it with their own eyes, and no one had verified it.
The current Austin family was mainly doing business. Of course, it was not just business. There were also those who had become professors and doctors. The Austin family was huge and had a lot of branches. When someone mentioned the Austin family, they could not help but be respectful. However, it was hard to say which family branch they were talking about
Perhaps it was because of this that the Austin family gave people a feeling of mystery.
Probably because it was Marc’s birthday, there were a lot of cars coming. The car tracks on the road were very obvious, and the snow was crushed by the passing cars.
When the car arrived at the entrance, it was stopped by the guard. It required the guests to show the invitation letter.
Simon pulled his collar slightly and was about to take out the invitation letter. But Silvia had already lowered the. window and looked at the guard.
It had probably been a long time since Silvia left this place. The guard at the entrance was stunned for a moment. But after taking a closer look, he quickly reacted and said, “Ms. Silvia? Ms. Silvia, you’re back!”
“Yes. I’m here to celebrate my grandpa’s birthday,” Silvia said in a deep voice.
“Hey, let them pass!” The guard waved his hand. “Go and tell Mr. Austin that Ms. Silvia is back!”
They all looked excited. It looked like they were very glad to see Silvia back
Then, Silvia slowly rolled up the window, and her expression was still very solemn. Simon did not say anything. He only gently held one of Silvia’s hands.
Alter entering the manor from the entrance, they drove for about ten minutes before stopping in front of a house.
There were already quite a few cars in the parking lot at the entrance. Silvia looked out and saw that Zain’s car was also there.
Today was Marc’s birthday, so Zain should naturally be there.
But…
Silvia didn’t want to enter the house in front of so many people and didn’t like to face such a noisy occasion.
“I’ll send the gifts in. You don’t need to go through the main entrance. You can avoid other people and go to see your grandpa alone. It shouldn’t be a difficult thing for you, right?”
Noticing Silvia’s hesitation, Simon suggested so.
Simon came today as Silvia’s husband, and he also represented the Palmer family. Thus, to not embarrass both families, Simon had to enter the hall through the main entrance. However, Silvia obviously did not like to deal with this kind of social interaction. There were too many people inside, and Simon did not want Silvia to be in that kind of environment. Thus, Simon thought it would be better for them to do things separately.
Silvia thought this arrangement was perfect, so she nodded and agreed.
The gift Simon prepared was a master’s painting. It was placed in a brocade box. But Silvia’s crane-shaped wooden sculpture had to be transported using a car.
Simon leaned over and kissed Silvia’s forehead. Then, he said, “I’ll go look for you after I’m done with my business here.”
“Alright!” Silvia replied with a smile. Then, she watched Simon get out of the car and walk up the stairs step by step. Freddie held the brocade box in his hand and followed closely behind Simon.
