Chapter 65
What about Ada?
David and Henry had known Ada since childhood, and they naturally wished that Neil would end up with her. Besides, they looked down on Silvia to some extent due to her rural background before she was sixteen. While they did not openly acknowledge it, they secretly believed that she was not the right fit for Neil.
“Neil, now that Ada’s back, what’s your plan with Silvia?”
Neil glanced at Henry and spoke expressionlessly, “What does her return have to do with my relationship with Silvia?”
Henry frowned. “Everyone knows that you and Ada used to be a couple. You-”
Neil interrupted, “As you mentioned, that’s all in the past. I consider her nothing more than a close friend now.”
“What about Silvia? Have you fallen in love with her?”
The atmosphere grew tense for a moment.
Neil glared at Henry. “My relationship with her is none of your business. I don’t owe you an explanation.”
Henry sensed that he had hit a nerve and wisely chose to stay silent.
Meanwhile, Ada and Snow found Silvia in the riding arena and surrounded her.
Snow mocked her with a sly smile.
“Silvia, are you having trouble controlling it? Let me help you!”
She raised her crop and struck Silvia’s horse on its hindquarters.
The sudden whip startled the horse. It let out a terrified neigh and bolted.
Ada and Snow chased after Silvia with malicious grins. They could not wait to see her fall from the horse.
A cold glint flickered in Silvia’s eyes as she gently pulled the reins to calm the horse. Then, she rode in the opposite direction.
To Ada and Snow, it looked like she had panicked and taken a random path. Otherwise, she would have directed the horse toward the stable.
They exchanged glances and saw excitement in each other’s eyes.
They were determined to teach Silvia a lesson. It would be even better if she fell from the horse and became paralyzed.
They chased after her relentlessly and eventually cornered her in a deserted corner.
Silvia glared at them. “What do you want?”
Snow sneered. “What do I want? Silvia Pond, you made me embarrass myself on Ryoln City’s largest advertising screen. Do you think I would just let that go?”
Ada paused for a moment and pretended to defend Silvia. “Snow, I’m sure she didn’t do it on purpose. How about you let her apologize to you and let this matter slide for my sake?”
“It depends on whether her apology is sincere enough to calm me down,” Snow said disdainfully.
Ada looked at Silvia and gently said, “Please apologize to Snow. I don’t want to see her harm you.”
Silvia’s eyes were filled with amusement as she watched them play along with each other. “You two are quite the actresses. One puts on a show of kindness, while the other acts fiercely. I’m sure you’ll both become popular!”
Snow’s face turned red with anger as she glared at her and said, “It looks like you won’t learn unless I teach you a lesson.”
She swung her riding crop at Silvia’s face with ferocity, and Silvia’s expression turned icy.
Snow put all her strength into the swing. If it had landed on Silvia’s face, it would definitely cause disfigurement.
Meanwhile, Add
Since they were so malicious, Silvia decided that there was no need for her to hold back.
Just as the crop was about to strike her face, she knocked Snow to the ground. Her movements were so fast that neither Snow nor Ada had a chance to see what transpired.
