Chapter 415: Brewing tension behind the scenes
"Don’t lose the baby."
Heaven knitted carefully, rocking on the rocking chair on the veranda. After her brief interaction with Silas, everything the man said repeated in her mind like a broken record. She didn’t plan to knit outdoors due to the weather, but she needed a clear mind right now.
"That’s what he said, Bear," she added, drawing a deep breath as she leaned back.
Bear, standing not far away, had a grim expression at her previous remarks. He had been with her since she came in here, but both remained quiet until now.
"You should cut him off," he suggested in a deep baritone. "He bothers me."
Heaven blinked ever so tenderly, turning her head in his direction.
"He reminds me of that person. They gave off the same vibe... do I have to remind you what happened back then just because you let such a person linger around you?" Bear added, eyes glinting menacingly at the thought of the past. "Let’s not make the same mistake in this life, boss."
"That decision is not mine to make, Bear." Heaven let out a sigh, setting her eyes on the lush green ahead. "If I hold that decision, he wouldn’t even step foot in this place. I’ve already known he is bad news... I think everyone already knows that."
"This is frustrating."
