Entangled in the Night: Unable to Escape Him-Chapter 24: Does Your Husband Get Jealous?
Chloe Nash pretended as if nothing was wrong, gave a light laugh, and said, "Doesn’t Mr. Prescott know, a forced melon isn’t sweet?"
Silas casually replied, "Sweet or not, as long as it quenches thirst."
"Then I wish you find your little bitter melon soon."
She said that and pushed Silas aside, quickly leaving.
Watching her leave, Silas let out a chuckle.
What little bitter melon; his Sienna was sweet all over.
Chloe returned to the private room and chatted with her classmates for a while before finding an excuse to leave.
She stood by the road waiting for a car; it was already past eleven at night, with few cars and many people.
The cab she hailed was still in line.
She was contemplating whether to ride a small electric scooter home.
It was just a bit far.
Just then, a man’s voice came from behind, "Hey beautiful, where are you headed? Let me give you a lift."
Chloe turned around and saw a man with tattooed arms, looking at her ambiguously.
She was startled and blurted out, "No need."
Then she hurried towards a crowded area.
However, the tattooed man caught up with her and seized her wrist, letting out a strange laugh.
"Why run? Spend a night with me, and I’ll give you anything you want."
Chloe’s wrist was gripped painfully.
She knew this guy meant no good; he must be waiting here deliberately to pick up drunk girls.
Chloe shouted loudly, "Let go, or I’ll call the police."
The tattooed man laughed lecherously, "Oh, a spicy girl, huh? I like that."
Saying that, he reached out with his lecherous hand to grope Chloe.
Chloe was so scared that she quickly dodged backward, but the man was strong, and she couldn’t escape.
Watching the man’s hand about to touch her sensitive area.
Suddenly, a shadow appeared, the tattooed man’s wrist was fiercely grabbed and twisted.
A crack was heard.
The tattooed man couldn’t help but wail, "Who the hell are you, meddling in my business? Just you wait, I’ll beat you to death."
After that, he whistled.
A few men came from all directions upon hearing the whistle.
These men had different tattoos, clearly no good people.
Chloe got scared and quickly grabbed Jett Sterling’s arm, "Jett Sterling, there are too many of them, let’s go quickly."
Jett Sterling looked at her with a peculiar gaze, "Chloe Nash, why are you so nervous? Forget my Taekwondo black belt?"
Chloe didn’t know about this, she quickly shook her head and said, "I just don’t want to cause trouble, and don’t want to drag you into this."
Jett Sterling smiled slyly, "Don’t want to drag me in, or scared I’ll cling onto you? Didn’t expect you to become so cautious after years of not seeing you."
He pulled Chloe’s hand, pushed her aside, and sternly warned, "Stay here, don’t move."
After saying that, he charged towards those men.
Chloe could only stand by and watch Jett Sterling fight with four burly men.
The four men looked like they weren’t easy to deal with.
Although Jett Sterling claimed to be a Taekwondo black belt, Chloe was still worried, anxiously stomping her feet beside.
At this moment, a shadow enveloped her, and a deep voice sounded in her ear.
"Dr. Nash, your ex-boyfriend is fighting desperately for you, won’t your husband be jealous knowing this?"
Chloe looked up to see Silas Prescott standing before her, his lips curled with an elusive smile.
He didn’t seem to want to help but was instead watching the commotion with arms crossed.
Chloe saw his schadenfreude demeanor and spoke unfriendly, "Mr. Prescott, is watching people make a fool of themselves fun?"
Silas gave a light laugh, "I’m just worried your marriage might break down, given how dearly you love that man."
He said this, almost gritting through his teeth.
Every time he thought about Chloe having a man she dearly loved at home, Silas felt like countless ants were biting him inside.
Inside, he had an urge to ruin Chloe’s happiness.
Chloe glared at Silas, "My marriage is none of your concern, if you’re not helping, please leave, knives and swords don’t have eyes, I won’t be able to pay if you get hurt."
As she finished speaking, a thug wielded a knife towards Jett Sterling.
Startled, Chloe shouted, "Jett! Watch out!"
At the same time, Silas moved swiftly to Jett Sterling’s side, delivering a kick to the man.
The thug fell to the ground, wailing.
But the knife still managed to cut Jett Sterling’s arm.
Blood flowed down his arm.
The thugs saw this and quickly fled in fear.
Chloe immediately rushed to Jett Sterling, took off the scarf from her neck, and wrapped it around Jett Sterling’s wound.
"Jett, let me take you to the hospital for treatment."
Seeing how worried she was, Jett Sterling’s lips curled playfully, "Chloe, are you worried about me?"
Chloe glanced at him, "You got hurt saving me, I should take responsibility, don’t overthink."
Seeing the two exchanging glances, Silas clenched his fist tightly.
He watched Chloe carefully wrap the scarf around Jett Sterling’s arm and even tied a neat bow.
Jealousy surged within him.
He gritted his teeth and said, "Dr. Nash, did you forget you have another savior?"
Chloe immediately looked at him, "Mr. Prescott, thank you today."
Silas smirked, "How do you plan to thank me, verbally?"
"How do you want to be thanked?"
Jett Sterling naturally knew what Silas intended, he quickly intervened, "Chloe, don’t fall for his trick, this man seems upright but is actually insidious and cunning."
Silas chuckled lightly, "President Sterling, did you quickly forget who saved you just now?"
"You say you saved me, it has nothing to do with Chloe, whatever reward you want, speak to me."
"Am I short of your money?"
"Silas, don’t push too far."
"Dr. Nash isn’t speaking, why are you piping up? Don’t forget your current identity, ex-boyfriend!"
Silas emphasized the last three words, irritating Jett Sterling gritting his teeth.
"An ex-boyfriend is still a boyfriend, closer than your patient’s family status."
Jett Sterling bragged slightly, "I’m the one injured, Chloe has to take me home, President Prescott, you go back yourself, I’ll properly thank you another day."
He said that and was ready to leave with Chloe.
Silas stared at the scarf on Jett Sterling’s arm, finding it increasingly unpleasant.
As Jett Sterling flaunted before him, Silas unexpectedly tore off the scarf.
