âI trust you.â
Silvia fell silent before she said, âI went to see Isla just now. When I was about to leave, I bumped into the Cooper Familyâs housekeeper.â
Neil set down his spoon and looked at her. âWhat happened?â
He knew Silvia well. She would not bring something up without a reason.
She lowered her gaze and said, âCan you talk to David and ask him not to bother Isla anymore?â
She knew that David had previously been deceived by an actress who was not very well known. It was said that David had promised not to fall in love with celebrities again.
Isla never had a boyfriend before, so it would be bad for her to fall in love with David.
Neil frowned. âThatâs David and Islaâs business. We shouldnât interfere. Besides, Islaâs an adult. She knows what to do.â
Silvia looked at Neil with displeasure and retorted coldly, âDoesnât David know better too? Heâs the one who started things with Isla. If he genuinely cares for her, he should realize that he shouldnât pursue her because they have no future together!â
After she finished speaking, a heavy and uncomfortable silence settled over the dining table.
It took a while before Neil finally spoke up.
âWhat future? Marriage?â
Silvia sneered. âForget it. I donât want to argue with you. You wouldnât understand anyway.â
Neil frowned. He wanted to speak, but Silvia got up and returned to her bedroom.
As soon as she woke up the next morning, she saw news of David admitting that he was the man beside Isla in the photos. He clarified that she was not his sugar baby and confessed that he had pursued her without success.
His clarification set the Internet on fire.
When Snowâs investor boyfriend found out, he pressured the film executives of âA Thousand Yearsâ to sign a contract with Isla and forced Snow to apologize to her.
Snow refused and quarreled with him in the hotel. She made it clear that she would not apologize no matter what.
âSnow, are you going to apologize or not?!â
âIâm not apologizing! If you continue to push me, weâre done!â
She had been arrogant toward Isla in the hospital ward. If she apologized to her now, Isla would definitely mock her.
Besides, the fact that Isla was friends with Silvia intensified her reluctance.
âFine, letâs break up. Donât expect any more roles from me!â
Just like that, the man left.
Snow was still upset, so she did not go after him.
The man loved her a lot, so she was confident that he would not have the heart to break up with her.
When Isla received the call from the film executives, she immediately realized that it was a result of Davidâs clarification.
She lowered her gaze and found it amusing that a few words from him online had more impact than her years of hard work.
âA Thousand Yearsâ was already halfway through filming, and she genuinely enjoyed the script. As such, she decided not to give up and agreed to continue filming.
After she sorted things out with the crew, Isla gave David a call. She invited him to dinner, and he readily agreed.
To avoid arousing rumors, Isla invited Silvia and Neil as well.
She chose to meet them at Tipsy Rain, the most expensive restaurant in Ryoln City. The food there cost a minimum of one thousand, and the wines started at a hundred thousand.
When Isla entered the restaurant, she was surprised to only find David there.
âWhere are Silvia and Mr. Remus?â
âI asked them to leave first. Donât worry. Iâve had someone check the place. There wonât be any paparazzi around.â
Given their status, they could not give the paparazzi a chance unless they wanted their private lives exposed.
