Abalene remained quiet, so Neil resumed, “If we keep backing off, it’ll make them think that we’re pushovers. They’ll grow to become more fearless, so we can’t make any concessions.”
When Abalene saw her grandson’s determined gaze, she stopped talking about handing over the secret key. Despite that, she was still heartbroken.
“Oh yeah, where’s Silvia? Why don’t I see her around?”
The moment Neil heard her name, his eyes shone with gloom. “We broke up,” he said softly.
Abalene was shocked. “It’s only been a few days since I saw you proposing to her on all the billboards in Ryoln City. Why did you break up?”
“Grandma, please don’t ask me about it again. This is my problem.”
Abalene snorted. “Of course it’s your problem. Silvia is such a good-natured person. You must have done something unforgivable for her to break up with you!”
Neil did not respond, but his cold demeanor showed that he was in a bad mood.
“Since you’re not together anymore, I’ll start introducing Silvia to other men tomorrow. You might not appreciate her, but somebody else will.”
As Abalene spoke, she got up to leave.
She started calling her gambling mates and asking them to introduce the men in their families who were of a similar age to Silvia. She did this before she even walked out of his bedroom, and he could no longer stand it. “Grandma, please don’t cross the line!”
Abalene could hear how annoyed, embarrassed, and angry her grandson was. She put her phone away and looked at him unhappily.
“What’s wrong? You already broke up. Can’t I introduce Silvia to other men?”
Neil’s expression darkened. “How do you know if she wants to be in another relationship?”
“That’s not the point. I’ll just make the necessary preparations first. What if she’s suddenly ready for it one day? Women can change their minds very quickly. She might still like you today, but there’s no telling after tomorrow. On top of that, you’re bad-tempered and inconsiderate. You may be good-looking and rich, but apart from that, you’re useless!”
Neil was at a loss for words.
“I may be your grandmother, but that doesn’t stop me from criticizing you!” Abalene said in a righteous manner.
After Abalene upset him successfully, she left with satisfaction.
A man like him needed to realize how incapable he was so that he could treat his wife well in the future.
After Abalene got into her car, she said, “Send me to Silvia’s place! It’s been so long since I last met her.”
Half an hour later, Abalene stepped out and saw Silvia’s mansion. “Sure enough, Silvia is doing better without that brat!”
She walked up to the door and pressed the doorbell. When Silvia saw Abalene, her eyes shone with surprise.
“Madam Remus, what brings you here?”
Abalene smiled. “I heard that you were living here, so I came to visit.”
