Isla spotted Silvia and waved at her.
Silvia sat across from her and asked, âWhy did you suddenly invite me for dinner?â
Isla shot her an angry glance. âYou disappeared abruptly for so many days. How can I rest easy when youâre missing?â
Silvia smiled. She picked up the menu and casually asked, âYou donât have to look after David anymore?â
Since she was looking at the menu, she did not catch the unnatural expression that briefly appeared on Islaâs face.
âHeâs been discharged from the hospital. I wonât meet him anymore.â
Silvia finally sensed that something was off and looked at Isla. âWhy did you suddenly make that decision?â
âWeâre from different worlds. Itâs better to draw a line between us sooner than later.â
Silvia did not know how to comfort Isla when she saw the sorrow in her eyes. After all, her own romantic relationship was a chaotic affair. She was not in a position to judge someone elseâs relationship.
âJust do whatâs best for you.â
Isla nodded. âOkay. How are things with you and Neil?â
âWe broke up.â
Isla frowned. âThatâs so sudden. Why? When you disappeared, he came to me and asked if I could get in touch with you.
âLater, when Liam falsely accused him and the police detained him at the station, he asked David and Ryan to help him find you. I think he really loves you.â
Isla sighed.
Silvia gripped her cup so hard that her knuckles turned white. She lowered her head and remained silent.
Noticing her reluctance to discuss it further, Isla quickly changed the subject. âLetâs not dwell on it. Iâm going to start filming a TV series tomorrow. Iâll probably be on set for about six months.â
Silvia appeared surprised. âWhat kind of series would take that long?â
âItâs Mr. Thompsonâs new TV series. Heâs known for being strict in the industry, so filming will take a little longer.
Silvia nodded. âWell, itâs a good thing. The best way to move on from a relationship is to focus on work.â
Isla chuckled. âActually, the most effective way to forget about a relationship is to start a new one.â
âBut that wouldnât be fair to the other person.â
âTrue. Thatâs why I donât plan on hurting anyone.â
After they finished dinner and left the restaurant, Silvia noticed David standing near the door. He was looking in their direction.
More precisely, his eyes were fixed on Isla.
âIsla, it looks like he wants to talk to you.â
She glanced at David indifferently and said, âI have nothing to say to him.â
Islaâs car stopped at the entrance. As she was about to get in, David suddenly grabbed her wrist.
âCan we talk?â
Isla shook his hand off and coldly said, âWeâre not that close, Mr. Cooper. Please donât touch me.â
The disgust in her eyes pierced Davidâs heart, and he turned pale.
âThat day, in the hospital ward, Iââ
Before he could finish his sentence, Isla turned to Silvia and said, âSilvia, you can head back. I need to talk to him.â
âOkay. If thereâs anything I can help with, just give me a call.â
Seeing how wary Silvia was, David wore a bitter smile. âDonât worry. I wonât do anything to her.â
âI hope you keep your word.â
Once Silvia left, Isla looked at David coldly. âLetâs talk in a quiet place.â
After that, she got into the car without sparing him another glance.
