The Accidental Wife by Sara Islam

Chapter 186

I can't believe that Silas is here. I know that he is persistent and doesn't easily give up, but I didn't think that he would follow me to another country. How did he even know that I'm here?

I quickly put on a T-shirt and some shorts before making my way to the lobby. Has he already booked a room here? Is he going to stay for as long as we're staying? We're leaving in two days, and I bet there's Knox's bachelor's party he should be preparing for by now. Has he hired somebody to do the preparations while he busies himself with following me to another place?

When I reach the lobby, I take a deep breath and look for him. I don't know what he wants to say and I'm not sure if I can listen to him without giving in. It doesn't take me long to spot him. I can easily spot Silas wherever he is.

"Hi, Silas." It's so hard to prevent myself from smiling at him. "What are you doing here?" I ask although I know the answer.

"There's nothing to talk about. I left you the papers and I just need you to sign them." Why do I suddenly have this feeling that I'm going to break into a million pieces if he does that?

"I'm not going to sign them, Rosie. I'm not going to let you walk away," he argues, and I shake
