Chapter 68
Silvia was unperturbed as she looked at Neil. “I’m quite curious. How do you plan on not letting me off the hook?”
The room fell into an eerie silence.
Sensing Neil’s menacing aura and fearing that he might harm Silvia, Ryan quickly stepped forward and said, “Neil, we haven’t even unraveled the cause of their conflict. Let’s all take a step back and calm down.”
Henry sneered. “Does the reason even matter? Snow has a fracture, and Silvia’s unscathed. It’s clear who’s in the wrong here!”
Silvia turned to Henry and laughed.
Annoyance flickered in Henry’s eyes. “What’s so funny?”
“I find it amusing that Dulcie probably regrets falling in love with you and being your secret lover for two years.”
At that moment, Henry and Neil’s expressions darkened.
Henry was furious at her for exposing his betrayal of Dulcie. On the other hand, Neil sensed an underlying message in her words. It was as if she was reprimanding both Henry and him.
With emotions running high in the room, Snow spoke up as she lay in Henry’s arms.
“Silvia, I understand that Dulcie’s unhappy because Henry got back with me after I returned to the country. Since you’re her friend, it’s no surprise that you don’t like me too. Despite that, I can’t tolerate such malicious treatment!”
“You’re overthinking it. Why would Dulcie be unhappy about that? If she were here, she’d probably thank you for taking this sc*mbag away. After all, he’s a real piece of work, and so are you. You two are a perfect match!” Silvia said coldly.
“Silvia Pond!”
Neil’s face was flushed with anger. Her provocation of Henry and Snow had crossed the line, and it was evident that she had struck a nerve with Henry.
“Apologize to them now!”
Silvia cocked an eyebrow in annoyance. “I’ve told you that I won’t apologize.”
Without another word, she turned to leave the room.
“Stand there!”
Henry gently placed Snow back on the bed and walked over to Silvia. “Apologize, or take a fall from the horse just like Snow did. It’s your choice,” he said.
Neil looked at Silvia coldly and said nothing. His silence indicated his consent to Henry’s demand.
Ada felt a sense of satisfaction. It appeared that Silvia did not hold a very significant place in Neil’s heart. Otherwise, he would not have allowed Henry to pressure her like this.
Silvia chuckled. Although her voice was soft, everyone present could hear her clearly.
“I choose neither.”
“Silvia Pond, you’ve left me no choice!”
Henry lunged forward to grab her and coerce her into apologizing. However, she grabbed his arm before he could even touch.
her.
A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, but he had no time to react. Silvia fl*pped him over her shoulder expertly and sent him crashing to the ground.
Pain surged through every part of his b*dy. If it weren’t for the sake of preserving his dignity, he would have screamed in pain.
Everyone, except Ryan and Neil, was shocked. They never thought that Silvia would possess such impressive martial skills.
Neil narrowed his eyes slightly as her action deepened his suspicions. When did she develop these skills? Was it after marrying him or long before?
Silvia looked at Henry and spoke confidently, “As I said, you can’t stop me.”
She left the room after she dealt with him. Meanwhile, David and Ryan rushed to help Henry to his feet.
Henry limped up to Neil and said coldly, “Neil, you saw that, right? She’s gone too far. If you don’t give us an explanation, I won’t let this slide!”
Just as Neil was about to respond, the horseback riding center’s staff entered the room with a tablet.
“Mr. Brooks, here’s the surveillance footage of Miss Walls’s accident. As soon as we learned of her fall, we had a copy made.”
Ada and Snow’s faces instantly turned pale. Why was there surveillance footage?
If the others watched it, they would be in serious trouble.
What should they do?
Both of them exchanged glances. Suddenly, Snow had an idea and said, “Give me the tablet!”
