âI heard that Abalene actually held this banquet to find Liam a wife. Since heâs inherited tens of billions of dollars, he can pick anyone he wants in Ryoln City!â
âWell, I think itâs better to stand back and watch. After all, Madam Remus is still alive. Even if heâs going to inherit Harmony Yard, heâll have to wait until she passes away to touch that ten-billion-dollar fortune.â
...
Ada listened to the people around her and smiled.
What Madam Remus did tonight could prove the tarot reader right. Those who got involved with Silvia would only be met with misfortune!
She saw how upset Melanie was earlier.
As she searched for Melanie in the banquet hall, she saw her walking in from the outside. She immediately approached her with a smile.
âAunt Melanie, I can see that youâve been pretty busy tonight. You havenât eaten yet, have you? I got you some food. Please eat something.â
Melanie had been angry with Abalene. But when she saw Adaâs worried gaze, she sighed and took a piece of cake from her.
âAda, youâre really thoughtful.â
Ada smiled bashfully and softly said, âNo oneâs sitting on the couch over there. You can sit down and catch your breath, Aunt Melanie.â
âOkay.â
They walked to the couch and took a seat. After Melanie ate the cake, Ada sighed.
âAunt Melanie, I donât think Madam Remus should have given Harmony Yard to Mr. Liam Remus.â
Melanie paused and asked with a frown, âWhy do you say so?â
She had the same opinion, but she did not want to reveal her true feelings to others. It did not matter that she preferred Ada as a daughter-in-law.
After all, they were not family yet.
âAunt Melanie, donât you think that it makes no sense?â

Melanie did not speak, but she had stopped eating. Seeing this, Ada continued, âI actually didnât believe the tarot reader who claimed that the Pond Family would fall apart because of Silvia. But if you look at these past years following her return, hasnât Pond Corporation been going downhill?â
Melanie frowned and spoke in support of Silvia for once.
âThat doesnât have anything to do with her, right? The Pond Family just hasnât been managing the company well.â
Ada shook her head and said, âAunt Melanie, you donât know about this, but every time my father makes an investment, heâs met with failure. Even if heâs bad at his job, he should still be lucky enough to make money once or twice. Yet, that hasnât happened at all.â
Melanie remained silent for a while before she looked at Ada and said, âAre you saying that Abalene has given Harmony Yard to Liam because Silvia is with Neil?â
Ada pursed her lips. âI canât be sure, but I still hope that things will get better for him whether I end up with him or not.â
âDonât tell anyone about this, Ada. I want to think about it.â
Ada held Melanieâs hand as she looked her in the eye and said, âAunt Melanie, just let me know if you need my help.â
âOkay.â
Melanie put down the cake and left, but she seemed a little dispirited.
Adaâs eyes shone with ruthlessness. Melanie might not believe her just yet, but if she brought this up more often, she could totally change Melanieâs mind!
In the meantime, Silvia found Neil in a corner where there were not many people.
Silvia saw him sitting alone with his head lowered. He appeared to be deep in thought, so she walked over and sat next to him.
âWhatâs on your mind, Mr. Remus?â
