Chapter 80
Silvia felt guilty. Scorpion was on to her, so even if he did not create an accident when Neil was on the way to the courthouse, he would have found another way to harm Neil.
“Madam Remus, I promise that Mr. Remus will be fine!”
She would not let anything happen to him!
After Silvia comforted Madam Remus and asked someone to send her back, she kept her eye on the ward door.
Soon, Ada received the news and rushed over too.
Her eyes were full of tears as she glared at Silvia and said, “I heard that Neil got into the car accident on his way to file the divorce. You’re such a troublemaker. Those around you always end up with misfortune!”
Silvia sneered at her and firmly said, “Does this have anything to do with you? Don’t forget that I haven’t divorced him yet. A homewrecker like you has no right to comment on us.”
“How dare you!”
Ada remained silent for a moment before she spoke with a disgusted look, “I’ll take care of Neil. You can get lost!”
“You should get lost, Ada Pond. I haven’t even made you pay for the incident at the horseback riding center. If you keep barking here like a dog, I don’t mind settling things with you now. Neil happens to be unconscious, so no one will back you up.”
Ada pointed at Silvia while she gritted her teeth and said, “This is your true face. You were just pretending to be gentle and considerate!”
“I’m gentle and considerate to people who treat me right. Do you think you deserve my kindness?”
“Just you wait!”
After Silvia chased her out, the hospital was finally quiet.
If she had not been afraid that Scorpion’s men would come and harm Neil again, she would have left the moment Ada
volunteered to take care of him.
Besides, Neil’s leg was a problem. She could not let him spend the rest of his life in a wheelchair.
She hesitated for a long time before she made a call. She had been too afraid to dial this number for the past three years.
The call almost went to voicemail when someone answered it. Silvia immediately heard a sarcastic voice.
“Wow, you still remember this old man. If you call me later, you’ll be able to visit my grave.”
Silvia bit her bottom l*p. “Mr. Yerger, I-I…”
When Mr. Yerger heard her stammering, he questioned her in annoyance, “Are you calling me about Neil Remus again?”
“Yes.”
He remained silent for a long time before he sighed and said, “Forget about that for a moment. Does he treat you right?”
“He’s quite nice.”
Right after she spoke, he scoffed. “Nice my *ss! I may be living in a remote area, but I’m not old and blind! If he really treats you right, you would’ve brought him to see me!”
Silvia did not expect her mentor to be so sensible. She instantly felt embarrassed when she was exposed.
“Mr. Yerger, can you at least help me save face a little?”
“Is there anything left to save? Three years ago, I told you that you could come back anytime you were in trouble, but what did you do? Do you want me to die in anger because you think I’ve lived long enough? Are you trying to attend my funeral?”
Silvia had no answer.
Winston must have told on her. Otherwise, how could Mr. Yerger know about her and Neil? He was always absorbed in his research,
“Are you secretly planning to get back at Winston?”
“No, I’m not!”
“You’re not? Don’t I know you well enough? Winston hasn’t been back for three years either. Come back with him next time
and bring Neil Remus along! I want to see how good-looking he is to make a fool out of you!”
“Okay,” Silvia answered.
“Alright then.”
Over the next three days, Silvia guarded the entrance to Neil’s ward, but he showed no signs of waking up.
It was almost noon on the third day when Silvia suddenly received a call from Dulcie.
