Chapter 360
Silvia frowned when she discovered that it was Idris. “What are you doing here?”
“I came to see you because I heard that you got hurt in a fire.”
Silvia wore a cold expression. “Oh, I’m fine.”
Feeling awkward, Idris suggested, “Why don’t you come home and stay with us for a while? Our servants at home can help take care of you.
“Are you saying that I can’t take good care of her, Mr. Pond?” Neil chimed in with displeasure.
Taken aback, Idris quickly denied this. “That’s not what I meant, Mr. Remus. You’ve gotten it wrong”
Neil gave him a cold look. “Then what did you mean, Mr. Pond?”
“Umm…. I just want to take good care of Silvia…”
She found it hilarious because Idris never thought of taking good care of her when she lived in Pond Mansion. She felt that he was doing this because she was dating Neil.
“Don’t trouble yourself. I’m doing really well. You can leave if you have nothing else to say.
“Silvia, come home and eat with us in a few days. Your mother regrets the way she’s treated you. At the end of the day, we’re family.”
“We’ll see.”
Silvia did not want to ruin her mood by going there since there was no place for her in their home.
Idris smiled awkwardly and left in disappointment.
Silvia no longer felt like going for a walk because of him. She simply returned to the living room to watch TV.
Neil sat next to her and whispered, “Don’t let irrelevant people affect your mood.” Stupefied, Silvia snapped back to reality and smiled. “Don’t worry. I’m just a little tired.”
They watched some TV, and Silvia went to bed after 9 p.m.
Neil went to the study to call Curtis.
“How is Chris doing?”
Curtis sounded solemn. “He’s still in a coma, and the doctor doesn’t know when he’ll wake up. The shards from the explosion hit his head and caused a congestion.”
Neil’s gaze deepened as he said, “Get him the best specialist from abroad and fulfill all of the Rios Family’s requests.”
“Understood.”
After he put down his phone, he opened up a document to read. However, he could not focus on a single word. All he could think of was the scene when he found Silvia.
Chris was hugging her tightly. He had been seriously injured, but Silvia had merely breathed

in some smoke and suffered some minor injuries.
Neil squeezed the document in a panic when he thought about it..
They were both men. Neil was obviously aware of Chris’s feelings for Silvia. If she learned that Chris had risked his life to save her….
Neil closed his eyes and pushed it out of his head.
He had come so far with Silvia, and he would not let anyone affect their relationship.
After she rested at home for two days, Silvia went to the police station to give a testimony with Dulcie. When she exited the building, she saw Adam.
He averted his gaze and pretended not to see her as he walked into the police station in a hurry.
Dulcie snickered. “Adam approached Jacob’s parents and bribed them to make a big scene. That way, he could ask you for the fine and terminate his contract with MY Corporation. But now that they’re on the run, his crime came to light. On top of that, Merlight fired him. Serves him right!”
However, Silvia was indifferent. Adam was reaping what he had sown, but the mastermind had not been found.
That person might still be watching her in the dark and plotting against her.
Back in her company, Silvia had a meeting with the shareholders and confirmed that they would launch their new products next month.
“This is really important. I hope to see all the departments working together to make next season’s launch successful.”
After the meeting, she sent the modified designs to Rita and dealt with the work that had accumulated during her absence.
