Mr. Remus, Your Billionaire Wife Wants a Divorce novel Chapter 169

“I’ll find a suitable time to tell Grandma about this. Before that, I hope you’ll keep this a secret.”

Silvia frowned and stared at him. She had a feeling that something was wrong.

“How long will I have to keep quiet about this?”

“No longer than three months.”

Silvia contemplated for a few seconds before she reluctantly agreed.

“Okay. I hope you’ll keep your promise.”

After she spoke, she turned to leave, but Neil stopped her once again.

“In the meantime, I hope you’ll be able to play along. Come with me whenever I visit her.”

“Neil, you’re crossing the line here. I’ll only help you keep this a secret. That’s as far as I’ll go!”

He looked at her and slowly said, “After the shock Grandma received, her health got worse. I don’t want her to worry about us again.”

“Fine. Is that all?”

He released her hand with a nod and said, “That’s all.”

“Can I leave now?”

Seeing that he was silent, she left the room.

Neil was rooted to the spot for a long time before he returned to Room One.

Silvia lost her appetite as well. She took a few bites before she paid the bill and left with Isla.

Having grown up in such an environment, Isla would not easily get carried away with fantasies of love.

“Okay. I’m glad that you know what you’re doing.”

She nodded with a grin and said, “I should be able to save enough money to support myself for the rest of my life. When the time comes, I’ll quit the entertainment industry and find a quiet place for retirement.”

They continued to chat until they reached the mansion. Silvia still had to work, so she went straight to the study while Isla watched some TV in the living room.

Silvia was finally done with work at 10 p.m. She was standing up to get some water when she suddenly received a call from Idris.

“Where are you right now?”

She sounded distant as she replied, “What is it?”

Idris remained silent for a while. Silvia gradually lost her patience, and he finally said, “Come back home. There’s something we need to discuss.”
