When she stepped into the living room, Silvia noticed that the guests were looking at her with mockery and disdain. However, they were holding back because Neil was next to her.
Silvia remained calm and stone-faced.
The moment Idris saw Neil, he greeted him with Mindy in tow.
âMr. Remus, I didnât expect you to attend! Weâre truly honored!â
Silvia was surprised to see Idris buttering Neil up.
This time, Neil did not embarrass him. They talked briefly about the collaboration between Remus Corporation and Pond Corporation.
Since Silvia was not interested in the conversation, she told Neil that she would grab some desserts in the dessert area.
To her surprise, they had been prepared according to her request. Why would Mindy suddenly give in?
After she picked up a piece of milk pudding, she heard a mocking voice behind her.
âOnly shameless a person would eat something that she acquired through threats.â
Silvia turned and saw an unfamiliar socialite. She cocked an eyebrow in surprise and asked, âWere you talking about me?â
The socialite sneered. âIs there anyone else here?â
Silvia was puzzled. She tried to ignore her, but her actions only made the socialite even angrier.
âHey, Silvia Pond! Are you admitting to the shady things that you did behind the scenes?â
Silvia frowned. She turned to the socialite and coldly asked, âCould you please tell me what shady things Iâve done?â
The socialite was taken aback by her self-righteous response. After a brief pause, she gritted her teeth and mocked her. âEveryone knows that you forced Mrs. Pond to only prepare your favorite desserts for this birthday party. You threatened not to attend otherwise. Trying to steal your parentsâ
favor from your sister only makes you look more ridiculous!â
As she listened to the accusations, Silvia finally remembered that this socialite had a sickly elder sister who was left in the countryside when she was a child. She was brought back later, but her parents still felt guilty. In their efforts to make it up to their eldest daughter, they ended up neglecting their socialite daughter.

Silvia smiled and nonchalantly said, âThis has nothing to do with you.â
The socialite sneered. âIt has nothing to do with me, but everyone here knows what youâve done. Youâre truly shameless if you can still enjoy that dessert.â
Silvia then ate the milk pudding in a single gulp as the socialite watched in disbelief.
âWhy wouldnât I enjoy it? If youâre buying into these baseless rumors, I canât help but question your intelligence.â
Silvia was about to leave the dessert area, but the angry socialite stopped her.
âStop right there! Everyone knows that Ada loves chocolate desserts, yet there isnât a single chocolate treat today! Isnât it because you threatened Mrs. Pond?!â
After she said that, Adaâs voice came from behind.
âPlease stop, Miss Turner. Today is Silviaâs birthday too, and catering to her preferences is as important as catering to mine. She doesnât know that Iâm allergic to vanilla. If she had known, she wouldnât have asked my mother to prepare a vanilla cake.â
Ada appeared innocent and kind as she stood there. It was as if she had no idea that her words would immediately put Silvia in a tough spot.
As expected, Miss Turner got even more upset at this revelation. She pointed at Silvia and angrily said, âYouâre vicious, Silvia Pond!â
