Chapter 393
A cold voice interjected before Idris could speak.
“Who are you talking to, Sil?”
Just as Silvia was about to answer, Idris raised his voice and said, “It’s me, Mr. Remus. When I came back, I heard about the incident between Perficient and MY Corporation, so I dropped by to see Silvia.”
Then, he saw Silvia mocking him with a fake smile.
His face turned red because he felt like she had seen through his thoughts.
The next moment, Silvia opened the door and retreated as she calmly said, “It looks like you have something to say to Mr. Remus. Now’s a good time to say it, Mr. Pond.”
Idris was speechless.
He found her willful, but he could not speak harshly to her in front of Neil. Thus, he cracked an awkward smile. “What are you talking about, Silvia? I’m here to see you.”
Silvia looked at him apathetically and said, “Well, you can leave now that you’ve met me.‘
Her words created a very unwelcoming atmosphere.
Neil was cold, and Silvia was unconcerned. Idris glanced at them and finally put on a humble front. “Actually, I do have some business to discuss with Mr. Remus.”
Neil remained hostile and prepared to ask Idris to leave. However, something suddenly occurred to him, and he said, “Let’s talk in my study.”
Silvia looked at him in confusion. She wondered why he suddenly changed his attitude. After all, he had decided to stop collaborating with Pond Corporation.
However, he walked into his study without looking at her.
No one knew what they discussed in the study, but Idris was full of smiles when he stepped out. It looked like he had gained some benefits.
He walked up to Silvia and smiled. “Silvia, Rainy has been accepted into Lufrora University as a postgraduate student. She’ll be back here for her vacation next week. Your grandmother and the others are going to hold a celebratory party for her. You and Mr. Remus should join us.” Silvia fell into deep thought. To her, Rainy was the pride of Brighton’s family. She excelled in her studies from a young age and always managed to win her elders over with a few words. Hence, the Pond Family doted on her very much.
When Silvia first returned to Pond Mansion, she thought that she could gain everyone’s adoration as long as she acted like Rainy. Sadly, she later realized how outrageously wrong she
was.
The Pond Family regarded her as a jinx who ruined their family. They would never accept her no matter what she did. /
Idris only treated her nicely to please Neil.
“I’ll see how things go. I’m busy with my company, so I might not have the time.”
Idris nodded. “Okay, it’d be great if you could come because your grandmother and the others miss you.”
“Mhm.”
After she sent Idris off, she turned to Neil, who had been silent the entire time. “What did you give him?” she asked.
“Nothing. We just talked about work.” All content is © N0velDrama.Org.
Silvia stopped raising questions. “I’m taking a bath. Don’t stay up too late.”
When she brushed past Neil, he suddenly grabbed her wrist.
“Are you upset?”
She looked up at him and faked a smile. “Remus Corporation is yours. You can work with anyone you want. How could I meddle?”
He chuckled and seriously said, “You could if you wanted to.”
Silvia swung his hand away and looked at him nonchalantly. “No, I don’t want to.”
“Okay.” Neil pretended to be disappointed.
However, she ignored him and returned to her room.
Neil only smiled in response. He wanted to return to his room as well, but he received a call from Curtis.
“Mr. Remus, I have news from Imperial City. Chris is awake.”
