Mr. Remus, Your Billionaire Wife Wants a Divorce novel Chapter 148

Silvia shook her head. “I picked up the diamond wristlet right after work. Then, I came here straight away. Mr. Remus might be working overtime.”

When Abalene heard this, disappointment filled her eyes. She initially thought that Neil’s accident would bring them together. They had been living in the same house after all. But it looked like things were still the same as before.

“He’s working overtime even on my birthday. You need to give him an earful when he gets here later!”

Silvia smiled and played along. “Sure!”

When Ada saw how nicely Silvia was being treated, she felt jealous and angry. Abalene always regarded her with extreme indifference.

Abalene had basically raised Neil, so he would only listen to her. Otherwise, Ada would not try her best to please this old witch!

“Ada… Ada… why did you become quiet all of a sudden?”

Melanie’s voice snapped Ada out of her daze, and she immediately looked at her.

“I’m sorry, Aunt Melanie. I got a little distracted just now. Maybe I’ve been a bit tired recently.”

“You’ve been helping me with Madam Remus’s birthday party, so you must be really tired. How great it would be if Silvia was as understanding as you.”

Ada subconsciously clenched her fists. She did not want to be understanding at all.

However, if she had not appeared obedient, she might not have gotten so far.

Ada smiled bashfully and said, “Aunt Melanie, I’m glad that I could help you. I enjoy my time with you, and I always learn so many things.”

Melanie nodded. “Don’t worry. I’ve seen all your hard work. You’re the only one I’ll acknowledge as my daughter-in-law!”

Ada pretended to be shocked. “Aunt Melanie, please don’t say that. Silvia’s married to Neil. I wouldn’t dare to have such thoughts.”

Melanie held her hand and whispered, “I’ll help you.”

She whispered something else, and Ada’s face instantly turned red.

Silvia walked around the banquet hall and headed to the backyard when she got bored. She planned to be alone in the courtyard for a while.

One of the women came from a family that collaborated with Pond Corporation. She suddenly stood up and scornfully said, “Silvia, you’d better pretend as if you didn’t hear anything. Otherwise, I’ll ask my father to end his collaboration with your family’s company!”

Silvia’s eyes were cold. Just as she was about to speak, an unfriendly voice rang out behind her.

“How arrogant of you, Miss Walker. Since the Walker Family’s so capable, I guess they don’t have to collaborate with Remus Corporation either. I almost forgot that the Crawson Family and Zeller Family still exist.”

When Neil suddenly appeared behind Silvia, their faces turned pale from shock.

If their families found out that they offended Neil and cost them their business, their families would definitely break their legs.

“M-Mr. Remus… we didn’t say those things on purpose… We’re sorry.”

“Mr. Remus, please forgive us this time… We promise we won’t spout such nonsense again…”

“Sor-Sorry… Mr. Remus…”
