Chapter 394
Neil glanced at the door to Silvia’s room and swiftly walked into the study.
“How’s he doing?”
“I heard that his recovery isn’t going well, and… there’s another matter.”
“Spill,” Neil demanded fiercely.
“I have news on Daisy’s family. Our men tracked them to Yothyae but found her parents dead. She’s still missing.”
“Have you looked into the person who helped them escape abroad?”
“Not yet… We’ve run out of clues…”
Neil was overwhelmed with dissatisfaction as he knitted his brows. “Keep searching. You need to find the mastermind!”
After he hung up, he briefly stared at his phone and made another call.
“Why are you calling at such a late hour, Mr. Remus?”
“Mr. Rios, I’ll agree to your terms, but you have to make sure that Chris never appears before my wife again!” Neil stressed.
Alan remained silent for a few seconds before he smiled and said, “I look forward to a pleasant cooperation, Mr. Remus.”
“Mr. Rios, I hope you keep your word. Otherwise, I’ll take drastic measures.”
“Don’t worry about it, Mr. Remus. Chris is my son and heir. I won’t let him be a homewrecker.”
With that, Neil hung up.
In the blink of an eye, it was time for Rainy’s celebratory party.
The Pond Family had booked the entire third floor in the largest hotel with a river view. They also invited almost everyone from Ryoln City’s upper class.
Silvia had decided not to go, but Dulcie tried to persuade her to attend the party with her. After a few days, she managed to annoy Silvia enough to finally give in.
When Silvia entered the hall with Neil, it was already full of guests.
The Pond Family was attending to their guests. However, the moment they saw the couple, they rushed over.
Even though Bethany and Jeremy were seniors, they tried to flatter Neil with their warm smiles.
“Mr. Remus, Silvia, here you are. Have a seat.”
Bethany was extremely enthusiastic toward Silvia, and the sincerity in her smile was unprecedented.
Chapter 394
Meanwhile, Silvia was calm and emotionless.
Once she sat down, Bethany grinned and asked, “Has work been tiring lately? Come home if you’re exhausted. We can take care of you, Silvia!”
However, Silvia did not take her seriously.
“No, I’m not tired. By the way, where’s Rainy? Aren’t we celebrating her achievements today?” At the mention of Rainy, Bethany was full of pride and joy. “She’s doing her makeup with her friends on the fifth floor. She’ll come downstairs later,” she answered gently.
Silvia nodded and stopped asking.
Both of them gradually quietened down because they had nothing much to say to each other.
Neil was sitting near Silvia with a cold expression. Bethany glanced at him and said, “Mr. Remus, you don’t have to sit with us here. Many of your business partners are here today. I think you’ll have more to talk about with them.‘
He nodded in response. “Okay.”
He looked at Silvia and whispered, “I’ll chat with them first. Call me if you need me.”
“Sure.”
More than one person approached him the moment he entered the crowd.
Neil was the president of Remus Corporation, the largest company in Ryoln City. Naturally, he would be in the spotlight wherever he went.
“I didn’t say anything when you previously wanted to divorce him. I thought you guys didn’t love each other anymore. Now that you’re back together, you should remarry.”
Hearing this, Silvia frowned. “Grandma, that’s between me and him. We’ll decide on our own.”
Displeasure filled Bethany’s eyes. “I’m saying this for your sake. Yes, Mr. Remus likes you right now and lets you have your way. But what if he falls in love with someone else again? You won’t get anything when that happens.”
After a brief silence, Silvia slowly said, “I’m not with him for monetary gain.”
