Chapter 328
Idris frowned with dissatisfaction.
“Mr. Remus likes her now. If we only throw a birthday party for Ada, he won’t be pleased.”
Mindy was furious. She gritted her teeth and said, “What does Neil Remus’s satisfaction have to do with me?! Ada’s birthday party is a private matter. Is he trying to meddle in our family affairs?!”
Since she was not listening to him, Idris immediately lost his temper and said, “You either ask Silvia to come home for the birthday party, or forget about the party entirely. It’s your choice!”
“Idris, you know that I don’t like her! Why are you forcing me to do this?!”
Idris ignored her and left without looking back.
Mindy cried on the couch for a long time. When she finally calmed down, she called Ada and told her about it.
Instead of getting upset, Ada chuckled and said, “Mom, it’s alright. Just give Silvia a call. It’ll be livelier if she joins us.”
Mindy could not believe what she was hearing. “Y–You’re not mad?”
“There’s nothing to be mad about. I have things to do, so let’s leave it at that.”
After she hung up, Ada turned to Liam with a smile. He was sitting across from her. “Have you decided to collaborate with me?”
Liam’s expression was cold. “What will I gain from collaborating with you?”
Ada’s smile grew even brighter, and she said, “I have some information that I’m sure you’ll be interested in. It’s about Remus Corporation.”
He fell silent and looked at her with skepticism,
“I heard that you used to like Neil. Why would you suddenly turn on him and help me? Maybe you and Neil planned this?”
Ada sneered, and her eyes filled with hatred. “I did have feelings for him before, but he’s completely devoted to Silvia now. Besides, we’re already engaged. Helping you is the same as helping myself.”
After all, if Liam became Remus Corporation’s president, her status would elevate too.
“Aren’t you worried that I’ll ditch you once I beat Neil?”
Ada was doubtful. “Would you?”
“Of course not.”
They exchanged glances and smiled. “I have a surprise for you on my birthday,” she said. “What surprise?”
Ada shook her head. “It’s a surprise. How could I spoil it in advance?”
“I’ll look forward to it then.”
As Silvia was about to have lunch, she received a call from Mindy.
“Your dad and I are going to hold a birthday party for you and Ada next week. Remember to come home for it.”
A birthday party?
Ada would probably be the center of attention again, and Silvia would look out of place.
However, Silvia would not let their plans come to fruition this time.
She smiled and said, “Okay, but I don’t like bright colors, so the decorations should be simple. Also, I don’t like chocolate cake. We used to have chocolate cake every year. Let’s change it to vanilla this year.”
After she made her requests, Mindy’s angry voice came through the phone.
“Silvia Pond, don’t go too far!”
Silvia cocked an eyebrow in amusement. Were her requests too much?
“Mrs. Pond, didn’t you just say it was a birthday party for me and Ada? What kind of birthday party is it if you can’t even prepare the things that I like?”
