Chapter 379
By the time they made it home, it was midnight. Silvia headed straight to the bathroom for a quick shower and went to bed. Meanwhile, Neil had a hard time falling asleep.
He completed some pending paperwork in the study and took out a diamond ring from his pocket. He had prepared it for his proposal.
Neil had seen it in a jewelry store during a business trip to Yothyae. Thinking that it would look good on Silvia, he bought it on a whim. However, he never got a chance to give it to her. He had planned to propose at the restaurant, but a call disrupted everything.
Neil stared at the ring for a while before he sighed and locked it in a drawer.
He could propose to Silvia after he dealt with Ada.
The thought of Ada brought a cold glint to his eyes, and soon, he gave Curtis a call.
‘Stop all investments in Perficient and let our collaborators know that Perficient has no connection with Remus Corporation from now on.‘
“Understood, Mr. Remus.” Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
In the next few days, Perficient kept getting notices from clients, who expressed their desire to end their contracts. With the exception of those who relied on Perficient for survival, almost everyone else decided to end their collaboration.
Whenever Ada came to the company, she would receive one termination notice after another. She was about to have a breakdown.
She asked Liam for help as she fumed, but he said no.
“Miss Pond, have you forgotten that I don’t have any resources and funds? How do you expect me to help you?”
“If you hadn’t assured me that no one could tell the image was fake, I wouldn’t have taken the risk and sued MY Corporation. You caused all this, and now you want to act like it’s not your problem? No way!”
Liam sneered and said, “It’s your greed that led to the current situation. I gave you that image, but I never told you to sue MY Corporation.”
Ada glared at him. “We’re in the same boat. If I face problems, you won’t have it easy either!”
After a brief silence, Liam said with resignation, “I want to help, but Neil has made it clear that Perficient is no longer associated with Remus Corporation. That’s why the companies that rely on him are terminating their contracts with Perficient.”
Ada was shocked.
“He’s so heartless! He’s willing to ruin me just for that b*tch!”
Liam grabbed her chin right after she spoke.
The sharp pain instantly made her wince. “What are you doing? Let me go!”
Liam stared at her coldly. “Don’t forget that you’re my fiancee now. Don’t you dare show a

gering feelings for Neil. It’s disgusting!”
Ada pushed his hand away and looked at him with hostility.
“What’s the point of having a fiance like you? You’re indifferent even when you see me in a difficult situation. We might be partners, but you don’t have the right to tell me what to do!” He nodded with a smile and said, “You’re right. But as long as you carry the title of my fiancee, don’t act like you have feelings for Neil. Otherwise, I’ll make sure that you regret it!”
Ada’s face turned red with anger, but her phone rang before she could retort.
It was a call from Ruby. “I’m not in the office. We’ll talk about the terminations when I return,” she answered impatiently.
“Miss Pond, the shareholders discovered that you used Remus Corporation’s investment! Come back quickly!”
She immediately turned pale and started shaking.
What should she do?
Pond Corporation had previously gotten into some trouble, so Idris wanted to divorce Mindy. To placate her father, Ada secretly took fifty million from the one billion dollars that Remus. Corporation had invested in Perficient.
She initially planned to replace the money once business was profitable. However, due to subsequent events, she had no chance of restoring the funds. To make matters worse, actions were discovered before she could do anything

Ada bit her lip and tried to compose herself. “How did they find out?!”
