Chapter 435
Isla spotted Silvia and waved at her.
Silvia sat across from her and asked, “Why did you suddenly invite me for dinner?”
Isla shot her an angry glance. “You disappeared abruptly for so many days. How can I rest easy when you’re missing?”
Silvia smiled. She picked up the menu and casually asked, “You don’t have to look after David anymore?”
Since she was looking at the menu, she did not catch the unnatural expression that briefly appeared on Isla’s face.
“He’s been discharged from the hospital. I won’t meet him anymore.”
Silvia finally sensed that something was off and looked at Isla. “Why did you suddenly make that decision?”
“We’re from different worlds. It’s better to draw a line between us sooner than later.”
Silvia did not know how to comfort Isla when she saw the sorrow in her eyes. After all, her own romantic relationship was a chaotic affair. She was not in a position to judge someone else’s relationship.
“Just do what’s best for

you.
Isla nodded. “Okay. How are things with you and Neil?”
“We broke up.”
Isla frowned. “That’s so sudden. Why? When you disappeared, he came to me and asked if I could get in touch with you.
“Later, when Liam falsely accused him and the police detained him at the station, he asked David and Ryan to help him find you. I think he really loves you.
Isla sighed.
Silvia gripped her cup so hard that her knuckles turned white. She lowered her head and remained silent.
Noticing her reluctance to discuss it further, Isla quickly changed the subject. “Let’s not dwell on it. I’m going to start filming a TV series tomorrow. I’ll probably be on set for about six months.”
Silvia appeared surprised. “What kind of series would take that long?”
“It’s Mr. Thompson’s new TV series. He’s known for being strict in the industry, so filming will take a little longer.
Silvia nodded. “Well, it’s a good thing. The best way to move on from a relationship is to focus on work.”
Isla chuckled. “Actually, the most effective way to forget about a relationship is to start a new
one.”

“But that wouldn’t be fair to the other person.”
“True. That’s why I don’t plan on hurting anyone.”
After they finished dinner and left the restaurant, Silvia noticed David standing near the door. He was looking in their direction.
More precisely, his eyes were fixed on Isla.
“Isla, it looks like he wants to talk to you.”
She glanced at David indifferently and said, “I have nothing to say to him.”

“Can we talk?”
at the entrance. As she was about to get in, David suddenly grabbed her wrist.
Isla shook his hand off and coldly said, “We’re not that close, Mr. Cooper. Please don’t touch
me.”
The disgust in her eyes pierced David’s heart, and he turned pale.
“That day, in the hospital ward, I-”
Before he could finish his sentence, Isla turned to Silvia and said, “Silvia, you can head back. I need to talk to him.”
“Okay. If there’s anything I can help with, just give me a call.

Seeing how wary Silvia was, David wore a bitter smile. “Don’t worry. I won’t do anything to her.”
“I hope you keep your word.”
Once Silvia left, Isla looked at David coldly. “Let’s talk in a quiet place.”
After that, she got into the car without sparing him another glance.
