Chapter 399
Ada heard Silvia’s mocking tone and bit her bottom lip. She would not have come if Idris was not trying to curry favor with Neil!
Seeing that Silvia was about to leave, her tone finally turned cold. “You’ll regret being so
heartless today.”
Silvia smiled faintly. “That’s my problem. Just mind your own business.”
After that, she looked at Neil and said, “I’m a bit tired. I’ll go back to my room and rest.” “Okay.”
The living room instantly became quiet.
Ada clenched her fists in anger.
“You should leave,” Neil said coldly behind her.
Her heart sank, as she got up and said, “Don’t forget that you still owe me one last wish, Neil.” He stared daggers at her. “Do you want to use it now?”
She seemed conflicted, but eventually, she looked down and said, “No. I’ll figure out how to solve my family problems.”
Neil did not say anything else. It was clear from his look that he wanted her to leave.
With that, Ada took a deep breath and left.
When she returned home, Mindy was still crying on the couch. She had been crying since her daughter left the house.
Ada was a little annoyed. Recent company affairs had already tired her out. Now, Idris had an affair and wanted to divorce Mindy. She felt that she had too much on her plate.
She stood at the door for a while to compose herself. Then, she walked up to Mindy and sat next to her. Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
“Mom, stop crying. It won’t do any good. The most important thing now is to change Dad’s mind.”
Mindy finally stopped crying and wiped her tears. “I gave him my heart and my soul for years, but he did this to me instead?! I want to kill him!” she said in sorrow.
Ada took a deep breath and slowly said, “Since things have come to this, there’s no point in complaining now. We have to think of a way to solve this.”
“Didn’t you visit Silvia earlier? What did she say?”
Ada’s eyes shone with anger, and she softly answered, “According to her, the family’s issues don’t concern her.”
It looked like Mindy had already expected this. She gritted her teeth and said, “I knew that heartless b*tch wouldn’t help me!”
“Alright, let’s put that aside. I’ve asked my attorney to look into Dad’s assets so that we can freeze them. If Dad insists on divorcing you, we’ll sue him with marital infidelity,” Ada said
calmly.
Idris and Sophia had a son, and they had been hiding it for so many years. His purpose was self
-evident.
Ada remembered when Idris said that he would hand Pond Corporation to her in the future. Now, she just found him extremely disingenuous. He had probably decided to leave the company to that b*stard son of his. That’s why he refused to let her handle the company business all these years. In addition, he did not allow her to have experience in the company.
Mindy wiped her tears as she nodded and said, “Got it, Ada. I’ll do as you say.”
Ada held Mindy’s hand as she slowly said, “Mom, you’ve been with Dad for so many years. It’d be best to get him to return to your side. If you win his heart again, we can take our time dealing with Sophia and her little b*stard. There’s no need to rush.”
Although Ada said this, she was aware that there was almost zero possibility for Idris to return to Mindy’s side. After all, Sophia was young and pretty. She even had a son as her trump card.
“Okay. I’ll think about what I should do…”
She refused to divorce Idris not because she still had feelings for him, but because she did not want Sophia to get what she wanted!
While they spoke, a maid walked forward and said, “Mrs. Pond, your cousin is here.”
