Chapter 391
Soon, Liam received a summons from the court.
He frowned when he read that MY Corporation was suing him for stealing their designs. He called Ada immediately.
“Did you say something? Why is MY Corporation suing me all of a sudden?!”
Ada chuckled and replied, “I just told Rita that you gave me her designs. I didn’t expect her to be so cruel. It looks like
not letting you off the hook.”
There was a cold and ruthless glint in eyes.

“Do you think I won’t harm you just because you’re pregnant?!”
Ada continued to smile. She was indifferent to his threat.
“Didn’t I tell you that we’re on the same boat? I can’t help but drag you down since you refuse to save me!”
Liam subconsciously tightened his grip on his phone and warned her, “You’ll regret this, Ada!”
However, she ignored him and hung up.
Ruby then came in with a document. “Miss Pond, we have another contract termination. Please sign this if there are no issues.”
Hearing this, frustration got the better of Ada. “How many clients have asked for a termination?” she asked sternly.
After a brief silence, Ruby replied, “Thirty–two.”
Anger dawned on Ada’s face as she knitted her brows. “A bunch of *ss k*ssers!”
“These terminations are going to affect the company’s revenue, Miss Pond. We need to get new business partners as soon as possible.”
“Got it. Ask the Marketing Department to sort out a list of clients. We’ll invite them out for a meal.”
“Okay.”
After Ada signed the document, she handed it back to Ruby and asked her to leave.
Perficient suffered a considerable blow when it lost most of its clients. Furthermore, MY Corporation refused to let Ada go. They filed a complaint against Perficient and asked for seven million dollars in compensation. This intensified her frustration.
She could afford it, but the thought of paying Silvia filled her with reluctance.
She had always regarded Silvia as an unsophisticated person who grew up in the countryside. Silvia had no right to snatch away everything that she had.
The more she dwelled on it, the more disturbed she felt. The idea of killing Silvia even crossed her mind for a moment.
While she was under great pressure from Perficient’s crisis, her phone rang out of the blue.

She picked it up and heard Danny Burton’s panicked voice. He was the Pond Family’s butler.
“Please hurry home, Miss. Mr. Pond is back, and he’s beating Mrs. Pond up!”
Her expression changed, and she sternly said, “Separate them right away. I’m on my way home.”
Half an hour later, she reached Pond Mansion, but someone slapped her the moment she walked into the living room.
She failed to dodge it in time, and the force of the slap pushed her to the ground.
She quickly got to her feet and held her face as she looked at Idris in sorrow.
“Why did you slap me, Dad?”
Idris sneered. “Don’t you know why? I go on an overseas business trip for a few days, and you ruin our family’s reputation. Do you know how others have criticized me? They’re saying that I raised a duplicitous daughter who knows nothing but dirty tricks!”
Ada’s face gradually turned cold.
“Have you forgotten that it was your so–called duplicitous daughter who gave you seven million dollars to help Pond Corporation soldier through a crisis?”
When she touched his sore spot, he grew angrier and tried to slap her again. But an injured Mindy suddenly raised her voice. “If you dare slap my daughter again, everyone will know about your illicit affair before tomorrow!”
