Silas grabbed his coat and walked out with Pearl, but he stopped at the door.
"It's only eight-something. Why don't we go to a bar?" He smirked. "You said it's a celebration so Iwas thinking we should do something interesting. Since that girl isn't around, she won't be thekilljoy."
"No."
Silas stepped in front of her and pleaded with a sad face. "Please, I really want to see the bandperforming tonight. They're my favorite band."
Pearl looked up at him, gazing into his eyes, which were reflecting the light. He appeared genuinelyeager to go.
Seeing her considering it, he added, "Didn't you mention you were going to give us something afterdinner? Well, this is the gift I want."
Pearl's eyes went wide. "I meant a bonus."
Silas unlocked his phone, found Pearl's account number, and transferred 300 thousand to her."Alright, can we go now?"
Pearl sighed. "Just this once. There won't be a next time."
Silas smiled happily and dragged Pearl to Dark Bar.
The bar was bustling with people moving around. Silas held onto Pearl's hand tightly. If it weren't forthe crowded space, Pearl might have suspected he was taking advantage of the situation.
"Let's try to get closer to the front," Silas shouted over the loud music.
Pearl wanted to tell him she owned the bar, so getting a table near the front would be easy with thehelp of the bouncers. However, seeing how excited Silas was, she decided not to interrupt themoment and squeezed through the crowd with him.
Eventually, Silas found a spot he liked.
The band had already started performing. They were a hip-hop group, and the lead singer had aseductively charming presence that captivated both men and women.
"Do you know why I love this band?"
They were standing very close to each other, and Pearl felt as though she could hear the poundingof his heart.
"Why?" she asked.
"The lead singer looks a lot like you and even sounds like you," Silas replied.
Pearl looked up at the lead singer, who had smoky eyes and was dressed in black leather. Her hairwas styled in a high ponytail, giving her a cool and edgy look.novelbin
"Which part?" Pearl saw herself as more of a girl boss, and the lead singer had a completelydifferent style.
"Her eyes. Both of you have beautiful eyes," Silas replied as he lowered his gaze, locking eyes withPearl. "I've had a crush on you for a long time. Anything related to you or resembling you interestsme."
Pearl was taken aback by this unexpected confession. She didn't know how to react. "Your puppylove started early."
"Puppy love?" Silas repeated, his expression changing abruptly.
The romantic atmosphere around them instantly dissipated, and the fire in Silas's heart extinguishedinstantly. He rolled his eyes at her, scoffing. "You're so boring."
Pearl couldn't help but scoff back. "There's no need to be interesting around you." She wanted tohave a witty comeback, but she failed to notice the change in Silas's expression as he leanedcloser.
"No need to be interesting?" Silas's smile turned chilling. He gently pinched her chin and emitted amenacing aura. "Let's see if you're really that boring."
