Neil got into the car and instructed the driver to start driving.
Once the black Maybach merged into traffic, Neil glanced at Silvia in displeasure and said, Didn’t I tell you to stay away from Ryan?”
“Mr. Remus, MY Corporation has a collaboration with Anderson Corporation. It’s natural for me to have dinner with him. I’m not sure what you mean by ‘stay away.‘ Should I not meet him at all? If I bump into him, do I need to act as if I don’t know him?”
Seeing the mockery in her eyes, Neil fell silent for a moment and said, “That’s not what I meant.”
“I don’t care what you meant. You mentioned wanting to talk last night. What did you want to talk about?”
“I hope you’ll reconsider what you said the last time.”
Silvia frowned and said, “I don’t see the need for further consideration. You and I-”
Before she could finish, Neil grabbed her chin and kissed her.
She was momentarily stunned. She instinctively tried to break free but failed.
After the kiss, she panted as lay on his chest. She had lost all energy.
He gazed at her and asked, “Deep down, you still have feelings for me, don’t you? Why don’t you give us another chance?”
Once she regained her composure, she pushed him away with a glare.
“Mr. Remus, even if I still have feelings for you, that doesn’t mean I want to get back with you. You’ll never completely cut off contact with Ada, and I won’t let myself repeat the same mistake!”
Neil’s eyes
darkened as he softly said, “There’s nothing between me and her.”
“Nothing? Are you sure? Then why do you take her to every business event? Why do you let people assume that she’s your girlfriend? Neil, don’t treat me like a fool!”
After a brief silence, he said, “I can’t explain it right now, but I want to assure you that there was nothing between me and Ada in the past. I’m confident nothing will happen in the future either.”
Silvia had a scornful look. “Save it for someone who’s willing to believe you.”
“I’ll prove it to you through my actions.”
She did not respond. Once the car stopped at the mansion’s entrance, she turned to Neil and seriously said, “Mr. Remus, you don’t have to do all this. Your actions are meaningless to me now.”
During their three years of marriage, she had given him many chances, but he never appreciated them.
Even if he was willing to explain and give her all kinds of promises now, it meant nothing to her.

With that, she opened the car door and left.
Neil did not approach her in the following days. He continued to attend various events with Ada, and they often became the focus of entertainment news. However, they never offered any explanation.
Before long, news of Ada’s appointment as the president of Perficient spread widely.
Dulcie expressed her discontent after she read about it.
“She’s just being appointed the company’s president. Why are they making it sound so grand? Anyone unaware might think she’s about to become a queen.”
Silvia glanced at her in amusement and said, “You don’t seem fond of her.”
“Of course! I despised her even before my family went bankrupt because I knew that she was deceitful. Once I saw her deliberately plotting against you, my hatred for her only grew!”
“She’s our competitor now, and with Remus Corporation backing her, we need to be alert. Otherwise, Perficient might overshadow us.”
Dulcie nodded. “With you here, we won’t lose to Perficient.”
Silvia chuckled. “Have you forgotten that we’ve lost a few times?”
Dulcie sneered. “If she hadn’t secured Remus Corporation’s support, our potential. collaborators wouldn’t have chosen Perficient. She’s only taking advantage of Remus Corporation.”
“It’s not easy to take advantage of Remus Corporation, but she did it. Anyway, these are the signed contracts. You can take them.”
“Okay, I’ll get back to work.”
Meanwhile, Sigwald took out his phone in his office and gave Leroy a call. “Are you ready, Leroy?”
Leroy was still a little nervous and hesitant.
“sigwald, I’m a little scared about carrying this fake bomb. What if it actually explodes?”
Sigwald’s expression was cold, but his voice remained gentle. “Don’t worry. There’s only mud inside. Nothing will happen. Think about it. If Silvia hadn’t interfered, Dulcie would have helped you!
“We’re just trying to scare her so that she won’t dare interfere with the Reed Family’s affairs anymore. Besides, I’ve paid off your gambling debt. Do you think I’d harm you?” This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
