Chapter 173
Dulcie took a deep breath. “No, I’m still furious. I’m going to cool down in the restroom!”
After Dulcie left, Silvia stood by the handrail in the corridor and sent a message to Kimberly. Then, she kept her phone and thought about a way to handle the problem.
It did not matter whether MY Corporation’s designer plagiarized or not. This incident already had a terrible effect on the company. If she failed to handle the issue properly, things would
not turn out well.
“Why are you here, Silvia Pond?!”
A sharp voice nearby interrupted her thoughts.
She looked up and saw Mindy, as well as Ada, walking toward her. Ada was even holding a few shopping bags.
Mindy’s face was full of hatred and dissatisfaction. She quickly walked up to Silvia with a sneer and said, “Your father asked you to talk to Neil yesterday, but you said you didn’t have the time. Yet, you have time to come shopping today?”
Silvia treated them as if they were strangers.
“Ms. Woods, you failed to raise me, so I’m not bound by any rules to help you either.
Mindy’s expression was cold, and she glared at Silvia as if she was looking at trash.
“Silvia Pond, how shameless of you to say that? When you came home at 16, didn’t we give you food or clothes? Didn’t you have the same things that Ada did? Now, you’re here saying that we didn’t raise you. Can you be any more shameless?”
Silvia knew Mindy’s character really well. It did not matter what she said; it would always be wrong in Mindy’s eyes.
She could not be bothered to explain and simply said, “Whatever you say.
Seeing that she was about to walk away, Mindy stopped her. “When are you planning to
divorce Neil?”
Her eyes shone with surprise. She cast a casual glance at Ada, who was silent, and said, “Why? Is someone getting impatient?”
Ada froze before she bit her bottom l*p and said, “Silvia, it’s meaningless for you to stay with Neil. Please give him back to me!”
“I’m staying with him? Did he tell you that?”
“Neil didn’t say anything, but everyone can tell that he doesn’t like you.”
“Oh.”
Silvia used to think that Ada was a b*tch. Only now did she realize that the woman was also blind.
“Silvia Pond, why are you being so disrespectful? I’m warning you. You’d better divorce Neil as soon as possible, or else, I won’t spare you!”

Silvia glanced at Mindy with a faint smile. “Ms. Woods, what makes you think that you can order me around? Have you forgotten that you just held a press conference not long ago to cut ties with me openly.”
Mindy did not expect her to bring that up. Her face instantly turned red with rage.
“How dare you! Great! Since you want to cut ties, return the money that I spent on you all these years!”
Silvia wanted to ignore her at first, but she did not expect Mindy to say such weird things.
“If Ada returns my bone marrow, I’ll immediately return all the money that the Pond Family spent on me!”
The moment she said this, Ada and Mindy’s expressions darkened.
“Ada’s your sister. It’s only right for you to donate your bone marrow to her!”
Silvia smiled. “You’re my mother. Isn’t it also the right thing for you to raise me?”
“How dare you!”
Silvia had no interest in talking to her any longer. She turned around and left.
Mindy gave her a murderous glare. “Just you wait and see, Silvia Pond!”
Ada immediately supported her. “Mom, don’t hold this against her. She’s just not very mature.”
“She’s already twenty–three, so how can she not be mature? You’re younger than her, yet you’re more thoughtful!”
“Let’s forget about this and go
home.”
Mindy nodded, but the anger on her face had not dissipated.
“Oh yeah, your father wants to invite Neil for dinner. He wants to thank him for including Pond Corporation in the East City projects. Why don’t you do the honors?”
