Mr. Remus, Your Billionaire Wife Wants a Divorce novel Chapter 96

Silvia stared him down.

“So, what did you find? Did you receive photos of me kissing or having sex with him?”

Neil frowned, but she left the living room before he could respond.

The silence between them was so obvious that even Leo and the housekeeper noticed it.

The housekeeper approached Silvia and whispered, “Miss Pond, have you had an argument with Mr. Remus?”

“No. Why do you ask?”

“He seems to be in a bad mood lately.”

After a brief silence, Silvia said, “It’s probably because of his workload at the company. Don’t worry about him. He’ll be fine in a while.”

“Alright.”

After the housekeeper left, she waited on the couch for Neil to return.

Around 7 p.m., Curtis called to inform her that Neil had a dinner party, so he would not be back for dinner.

After she hung up, she did not bother reheating the food and just had a few bites. Then, she watched TV for a while before she headed to bed.

Throughout the party, Neil requested his phone from Curtis every half an hour.

Curtis initially assumed that he was waiting for an important client’s call. However, around 10 p.m., Neil checked his phone again and frowned. He turned to Curtis and asked, “What did you say to Silvia?”

Curtis was stunned for a moment, and he subconsciously responded, “I simply informed her that you wouldn’t be returning for dinner.”

“What was her response?”

“She just said ‘okay.’”

Neil’s expression darkened. “She didn’t ask when I’d be back?”

“No.”

Neil fell silent and poured himself another glass of wine.

Usually, nobody would dare push him into drinking at a social gathering. However, he accepted every offered drink tonight and had downed over ten glasses.

He had been irritable every day since their big argument. Yet, she was eating well, sleeping soundly, and not taking him seriously.

“Silvia, wake up!”

After a few more tries, she finally woke up.

In a dazed state, she noticed a figure not far away and was immediately jolted awake.

She frowned when she realized it was Neil. She sat up and asked, “Why are you staring at me instead of sleeping at this hour?”

“Why didn’t you answer when Curtis called you?”

Silvia checked her phone; there were indeed several missed calls.

She was somewhat speechless. Was this the reason for waking her up?

“Come on, how can I answer when I’m asleep?”

“From now on, if I attend a dinner party, you’re not allowed to sleep until I return!”
