âSilvia, come here quickly. Is that person at the door Neilâs secretary?â
Silvia walked up to the window and saw Curtis outside. He seemed to be holding something in his hand.
âI noticed him standing there when I woke up this morning.â
Silvia did not know what Neil was up to, so she frowned and said, âIâll go out and take a look.â
When Curtis saw her, he hurriedly approached her. âMiss Pond, Mr. Remus asked me to deliver this.â
She looked at the container in his hand. It was from a well-known restaurant in Ryoln City. She used to enjoy the food there and often stood in line to get breakfast.
âMr. Harrell, please take it back and tell him not to do such meaningless things in the future. Weâre divorced, and I donât want to be involved with him any further.â
Curtis looked troubled. âMiss Pond, itâd be better if you tell Mr. Remus yourself. Iâm just his secretary.â
Silvia nodded and said, âAlright, Iâll follow you to Remus Corporation right now.â
He was caught off guard.
Seeing that he was not moving, she furrowed her brows. Just as she was about to speak, a white BMW stopped nearby.
She was peeved as she recognized it as the Pond Familyâs car. Why was everyone here to cause her trouble early in the morning?
The rear door of the BMW opened, and Mindy, as well as Ada, stepped out.
Mindy had a cold expression, but she did not carry the same arrogance from the day before.
She approached Silvia and said, âI realize I was wrong in the past. I shouldnât have taken sides. I hope you can forgive me.â
Silvia looked at her in surprise. Why did Mindyâs attitude change overnight?
This was her first time seeing someone apologize so self-righteously.
Besides, she did not want Mindyâs apology.
âMs. Woods, you donât have to apologize to me as I have no intention of forgiving you. Also, I doubt weâll have any future interactions.â
Mindyâs expression changed. She gritted her teeth and said, âWhat do you mean? Do you truly want to sever ties with me?!â
Silvia smiled. âMs. Woods, werenât you the one who held the press conference and declared your intention to cut ties with me?â
Mindy spluttered and grew more dissatisfied. If it were not for the collaboration between Pond Corporation and Remus Corporation, she would have taught her a lesson on the spot.
Sensing her anger, Ada quickly tugged at her sleeve. âMom, you came here to apologize to Silvia. You promised me that you wouldnât argue with her before you left the house. Have you forgotten?â
Mindy bit her lip and took a deep breath. âI was thoughtless with my words before. What do I have to do for you to forgive me?â she said.
Although Silvia seemed indifferent, she had slowly run out of patience.
âMs. Woods, you donât have to force yourself to apologize to me. Considering Ada and Neilâs relationship, it should be relatively easy to change his mind. I have to head to work now. Goodbye.â
With that, Silvia walked to her car. After she started the engine, she lowered the window and turned to Curtis. âMr. Harrell, please inform Mr. Remus that Iâll visit him at Remus Corporation at noon.â
Before he could respond, she stepped on the accelerator and left.
The others just exchanged glances. Eventually, Curtis cleared his throat and said, âI need to get to work as well. Mrs. Pond, Miss Pond, please excuse me for now.â
Realizing that Curtis was about to leave, Ada quickly stopped him. âMr. Harrell, is there no other way to make Neil change his mind? You saw what just happened. My mother tried to apologize, but she refused to forgive her.â
Curtis shook his head. âMiss Pond, I donât know what Mr. Remus is thinking. Itâs best that you ask him directly.â
Mindyâs expression turned icy once she and Ada were left.
âSilvia must be doing this on purpose! She hates me for my past favoritism, so sheâs trying to make me suffer! Iâm fed up! How did I end up with such an ungrateful child?!â
Ada consoled Mindy and gently patted her back. âMom, letâs return for now. Since she wonât forgive you, weâll have to think of another way to regain the project for Pond Corporation.â
âI can tell that your dad is determined to divorce me this time. Neil clearly likes you, so why did he help Silvia this time?â
Mr. Remus, Your Billionaire Wife Wants a Divorce ï¤Chapter 183 Watch Out, CEO Daddy!
ï¤Chapter 20 The Ugly Lady Strikes Back ï¤Chapter 2514 Ada was a little irritated. If Mindy had been less harsh on Silvia and tried to maintain a better relationship with her, they would not have ended up in this predicament.
It was her fault, yet she dared to question Ada.
Nevertheless, Ada smiled and slowly said, âDonât worry, Mom. Iâll plead with Neil for help.â
âIâm counting on you.â
Ada fell silent, and before long, noon came.
