Chapter 55
Silvia nearly did a spit-take.
However, she still managed to swallow the juice. Once she put down her glass, she said, “Madam Remus, we’re not considering children right now.”
Abalene sighed and said sympathetically, “Ada’s back, and I’m worried about you being upset about it. Neil might have a change of heart if you have a child with him.”
Silvia smiled. “If I need a child to make him stay by my side, I’ll just be a sad clown. I won’t let myself sink to that state.”
“You saved Neil’s life, and you also cured his legs. No matter what, you’re the only one I’ll acknowledge as my granddaughter-
in-law.”
Ada would have to climb over Abalene’s dead b*dy to marry Neil.
After some hesitation, Silvia looked at her seriously and said, “I’ve been thinking about a lot of things lately. I hope that you’ll support my decision if I divorce Neil some day in the future.”
Abalene was shocked. She never expected their relationship to deteriorate to such a state.
“Did Neil do something bad to you?”
“No. I’m just telling you in advance. If things really sour to that point between us, I hope you’ll be prepared.”
Abalene kept quiet for a long time. When she spoke again, she sounded very dejected.
“Alright.”
She remained dispirited even as they ate later on. She also found Neil an eyesore.
After dinner, Abalene asked Neil and Silvia to stay the night. However, both of them had to work the next day, so they rejected
her offer.
As they were leaving, Abalene summoned Neil to her side and hissed. “If you mistreat Silvia, I’m not going to let you have a single percent of Remus Corporation’s shares!”
While Neil was the president of Remus Corporation, Abalene was the one with the shares.
Three years ago, Neil agreed to marry Silvia partially because Abalene had promised to transfer 80% of Remus Corporation’s shares to him five years later.
However, Silvia had no idea about their promise.
Neil’s gaze turned colder as he said, “I understand.”
Silvia did not know what they talked about. All she knew was that Neil was gloomier than ever when he came back.
She looked away and bade farewell to Abalene with a smile.
“I’ll visit you soon!”
Abalene did not want her to go, but she said, “If Neil upsets you, tell me! I’ll teach him a lesson!”
Silvia felt touched when she saw how Abalene supported her unconditionally. She nodded and said, “Alright. You should go in. The wind’s really strong tonight.”
“I’ll go in once you leave.”
Silvia then entered her car without another word. She ignored Neil the entire time, and his expression was as dark as a storm
cloud.
Abalene glared at him. “Go.”
After that, she ignored him too and went back inside.
Neil was speechless.
Did both of them hate him?
Neil stopped Silvia the moment they reached the foot of the hill. He did so by parking his black Maybach in front of her car.
Then, he got out and approached her.
When she sensed his intimidating aura, she wound down the window with a frown. “Yes?”
He remained silent for two seconds before he said, “We need to talk.”
