Chapter 201
After she got out of her car, she gave Isla a call as she walked toward the mansion.
“Isla, have you gone on a trip?
“No, my manager arranged a last–minute event for me. I’m on my way back now.”
Once Silvia confirmed that Isla was safe, she entered the mansion.
After she took a shower, she received a message from Neil.
[You mentioned that you would treat me to a meal. When will that be?]
Silvia opened her conversation with Yannick and asked him when he would be free.
Yannick: I’ll be free in the next few days. But Miss Pond, since you want me to act as your boyfriend, just call me Yannick, and I’ll call you Silvia. Our relationship will feel distant if keep calling me Mr. Reed. What do you think?
Silvia: Sure.
you
Silvia confirmed the time with Yannick and received a call from Neil before she could reply to his message.
She heard his voice the moment she answered the call.
“Silvia, you’re not going to back out, are you?”
“Of course not. If you have some time tomorrow, we can go for dinner. Is that okay with you?”
Neil paused for a few seconds before he softly said, “Sure. Make a reservation and send me the restaurant’s location.”
Following that, Neil gave Curtis a call.
“Cancel the dinner with Chelsea tomorrow night.”
“Mr. Remus, Chelsea is leaving the day after. If you don’t meet him tomorrow night, we’ll miss our chance to collaborate with him.”
Neil said with an indifferent expression, “Book me on the same flight as his. I’ll talk to him on the plane the morning after.”
Curtis was slightly surprised. “Mr. Remus, do you have something important to do tomorrow night?”
“Yes,”
Neil hung up once he was done speaking.
Meanwhile, Silvia took a towel to dry her hair.
She heard the sound of a car engine outside the mansion. She walked up to the window and saw Isla getting out of the passenger seat of a red Bugatti.
Then, the driver stepped out as well.
Realizing that it was David, her eyes were filled with shock. When did Isla and David become so close?

In the past, Isla would not allow male colleagues or male celebrities to send her home even if she worked late into the night. She would be afraid of being filmed by the paparazzi.
Unexpectedly, she broke her rules for David.
Silvia went downstairs, and Isla happened to come in at the same time,
“Silvia, you haven’t gone to be?”
Silvia nodded. “Yes. Why did David send you back?”
Isla became speechless at the mention of his name.
“Can we not talk about it? While I was on my way back, my car had a flat tire. He happened to pass by, so I asked him to send me back.”
The thought of her owing David a favor left a little annoyed. She would have to treat him to a meal now.
Silvia chuckled. “Look at you. Why do you
look so unhappy?”
Isla sighed. “I plan to treat him to a meal, but I don’t want to go alone.”
As she spoke, her eyes suddenly lit up. “Silvia, why don’t you tag along?”
That way, she could return the favor and make David understand that she was not interested in him at all.
When Silvia saw her expectant face, she nodded and said, “Okay.”
Isla instantly hugged her.
“I love you, Silvia!”
“Let go of me. If you strangle me to death, no one will go with you.”
Isla immediately released her. “I’m just too excited.”
“Okay. Take a shower and get some rest. I’m going to bed.”
“Okay.”
Silvia was about to sleep back in her room when she received a call from Dulcie.
