Chapter 483 Side Story: Silvia and Spencer (1)
Silvia drank a lot last night. When she woke up in the morning, she could no longer remember what had happened last night and what she had done.
Silvia followed Mina who came upstairs to call her to eat and went downstairs.
After entering the dining room, Silvia saw that there was an empty seat beside Anaya, so she walked over.
Before Silvia sat down, Hearst, who was sitting by Anaya's side, said lightly, "That seat has been taken."
For some reason, Silvia could hear some wariness from Hearst's words.
Silvia had just pulled out a chair. After hearing Hearst's words, Silvia silently walked to the opposite side of Anaya and sat down.
Anaya felt that Hearst went a little too far. She whispered in his ear, "Silvia is unfamiliar with this place. With me around, she can feel at ease. How can you be so against her?"
Hearst glanced at Anaya unhurriedly and said, "You promise me that you will be like last night. Then I will let you sit with her."
Thinking of what happened last night, Anaya felt that she was still a little weak, and she immediately shut up.
Silvia probably just lacked a sense of security. Anaya thought, if I let Silvia sit by me, I will not be safe.
The three of them waited for a few minutes until Reina and Jaylon went downstairs. Only then did they start to enjoy breakfast.
After breakfast, Jaylon sent Reina back to where she lived. Hearst went to work, and Silvia was ready to meet the seniors in the organization.
Anaya sent Silvia out, but she was still worried, so she told Silvia, "Keep the bodyguards beside you. Be slow when you do things. Don't force yourself too much."
Silvia listened to Anaya's words and nodded yes.
At the gate, Silvia and the bodyguards got in the car together. "Ana, you can go back. I'll leave now."
"Okay, wish you a safe journey." Anaya nodded.
The car slowly drove out of the villa and onto the main road before starting to speed up.
The exchange event that Silvia participated in this time was related to the mental health problem of females.
This time, the event was mainly handled by one of Silvia's seniors, and she just assisted the senior.
Silvia was not a core member of the public welfare organization. According to the rules, it was not her turn to come over.
Silvia wanted to come back to see Anaya, so she volunteered to participate and came with the team.
This exchange conference would last for about a week. After it ended, Silvia could still take a few days off and stay in the country for a few days.
There were not many things to do here. Silvia was busy for the whole morning and was free in the afternoon.
On the way back, Silvia asked Anaya if she wanted anything, and Anaya asked Silvia to go to the pharmacy to buy some vitamins for her.
Silvia agreed and asked the bodyguards to stop the car by the road. They
got out of the car and entered the pharmacy.
Silvia bought vitamins according to the picture that Anaya had sent. After paying, she turned and got into the car.
Not far away, Joshua watched Silvia's car disappear into the road traffic. He took out his phone and called Bryant.
The next day, Silvia went out to work.
When Silvia arrived at the office building, a senior said to her, "Silvia, someone is waiting for you on the balcony outside. He told me to inform you when you came."
Silvia gave the coffee she bought to the other staff and asked with a smile, "Who is it?"
The senior recalled for a moment and said, "I didn't ask for his name, but he is sitting in a wheelchair. He is quite good-looking... Silvia? What happened
to you?"
Before the senior finished speaking, Silvia's face turned pale. The coffee in her hand fell to the ground.
"It's nothing. I'll clean up right now." Silvia exerted her fingernails into her palm to keep calm.
The senior saw that Silvia was in a bad state and said, "If you are not Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
feeling well, go to rest. Leave this to me."
Silvia hesitated, nodded, and then asked, "Can I ask for leave today?"
The senior was a little surprised.
Most of the people in the public welfare organization were part-time workers. There were not many people like Silvia who worked hard and took
the work as a full-time job.
In the past few months, Silvia had not asked for a day off.
Today was the first time she made a request for leave.
The senior agreed without hesitation. "Okay, you go back to rest today. If
you are still uncomfortable in two days, you can continue to rest at home. We can handle the affairs here."
Silvia's work was not very important. Others could completely replace her. It
would not be a problem if she asked for leave.
Silvia thanked the senior and was about to leave.
The senior was still thinking about the matter of someone looking for Silvia
and reminded, "That person is waiting for you on the balcony."
Silvia nodded randomly and walked out of the office.
She didn't go to the balcony but just went downstairs.
The sun was shining brightly today, and it was warm and even hot.
On such a hot day, when Silvia saw the man sitting in a wheelchair, her hands and feet were cold.
Those memories in the past all jumped out in an instant and ruthlessly bit
her nerves.
Silvia looked around uneasily and saw that the bodyguards were still
following behind her. The uneasiness in her heart eased a little.
Bryant saw Silvia. There was a hint of surprise on his haggard and pale face,
but he also showed a careful and probing look.
He wheeled the wheelchair and went towards her. "Shiloh..."
Bryant still called Silvia's past name "Shiloh".
The name that she had almost forgotten.
Silvia ignored him and strode away.
Bryant wanted to chase after Silvia, but the bodyguards following Silvia
blocked his way, not letting him pass.
The people behind Bryant wanted to forcefully break through, but they were
stopped by Bryant.
Bryant knew that Shiloh hated him. If he hurt her people again, he would not
have any chance to talk to her.
He came here today just to see her and leave.
Bryant shouted inwardly, Shiloh!
My beloved Shiloh!
Now she was even more beautiful and charming than before.
Unfortunately, he was no longer worthy of her.
Silvia walked quickly for a long distance before she gradually slowed down.
One year had passed. Silvia thought that she could face the things that she
had experienced calmly.
However, it was only today when she saw Bryant again and remembered
the days when she was violated by Bryant in the basement that she realized that she had never forgotten.
During that time, she was imprisoned in a dark and damp basement, on a
narrow bed, and her body was covered in wounds left behind by Bryant's
abuse.
Every day, she screamed and begged for help with all her might.
However, no matter how loudly she shouted, no one could hear her voice.
She was like an isolated island that was on the verge of extinction in the
world, unable to call for help or save herself.
That was her nightmare for the rest of her life.
The memories with suffocating despair flooded her over like a tide, almost
drowning her.
Silvia stopped and held her knees as she squatted on the road, crying
bitterly.
When the people around saw her, they took a detour and avoided her.
A figure stopped in front of her after a long while. A tissue was held by a
clean and slender hand and was handed to her.
"Young lady, are you alright?"
