Chapter 41
Did Silvia find out that Snow had set her up during Jeremy’s birthday party?
Henry looked at Silvia with a frown. “What do you mean?”
She calmly met his gaze. “I’m sure you know what I mean. Your girlfriend happens to be wearing my birthday gift to Dulcie. Why is she wearing it? Care to explain?”
Snow’s face turned pale. A mix of shame and anger surged within her. This dress was a gift from Silvia to Dulcie?!
Henry sneered. “I’ve paid Dulcie the money for this dress. It belongs to my girlfriend now.”
Silvia cocked an eyebrow in disbelief. “You’re truly shameless. I doubt Dulcie ever agreed to sell you the dress.”
Henry’s expression darkened, and he remained silent.
Snow turned to Silvia with an aggrieved look and teary eyes. “Miss Pond, I didn’t know that it was a gift from you to Dulcie. I liked it, so I asked Henry to buy it from her. Please don’t blame him. It’s all my fault.”
Silvia finally understood why Henry left Dulcie for Snow. That pitiable face of hers could probably earn any man’s sympathy.
“So, just because you liked it, you did everything you could to snatch it away? I suppose that’s a mistress’s habit. You’re always snatching people’s things!”
“Silvia Pond, watch your mouth! I’m only putting up with you for Neil’s sake!”
Neil glanced at Henry indifferently and said, “You don’t have to put up with her.”
A glimmer of delight sparkled in Snow’s eyes. It appeared that Neil was genuinely not fond of Silvia.
Henry was momentarily stunned before he looked at Silvia in contempt. “You heard what Neil said. I

However, Neil interrupted him. “Because I look down on you too!”
Henry’s face twisted with anger and disbelief as he stared at Neil.
However, Neil did not even spare him a second look. He stood up and sternly said, “Return the dress immediately, or else, I’ll make your girlfriend face the consequences before Silvia takes action.”
Henry never thought that Neil would openly show him disrespect. “Neil, we’ve been friends for so many years, but you’re disrespecting me over a dress?!”
Neil glared at him. “If I truly wanted to disrespect you, I would make Snow remove the dress right here and now. She doesn’t deserve to wear the dress that my wife gave to her friend.”
Henry’s face turned pale, but his eyes were filled with anger. “Fine. Since you put it that way, we’re no

longer friends from this point on!”
“As you wish!”
Neil immediately left with Silvia.

The private dining room suddenly fell into an eerie silence. Snow’s face had turned white with fright. She cautiously said, “Henry, I’m sorry. This is all my fault. If I hadn’t insisted on having this dress, you wouldn’t have fought with Mr. Remus.”
Henry looked at her gloomily and said, “Change out of the dress when you get back. Wash it and return it to Dulcie.”
Although Snow felt reluctant, she was too afraid to provoke him at this moment. She nodded and said, “Okay.”
When Snow lowered her head, rage flashed in her eyes.
She would return the dress, but she would also ensure that Dulcie could never wear it again.
As Neil and Silvia left the restaurant, Silvia pulled her hand away from his grasp
“You don’t have to defend me, Neil. This is my problem, and it doesn’t concern you.” “You’re my wife, so it naturally concerns me.”
