Mindy held her hand against her cheek. She finally calmed down and realized what she had said.
She seemed lost as she looked at the guests. When she saw their disgust and hatred toward her, she trembled and almost fainted.
Ada immediately held her up when she realized that something was wrong. âMom, are you okay?â
Idris was still angry as he yelled, âLeave her alone!â
After he said this, he turned around to Silvia with an awkward expression.
âSilvia, your mother didnât mean what she said earlier. Please donât take it to heart.â
Her eyes were extremely cold. They were all aware whether Mindy truly meant what she said.
Besides, since the facade was ruined, there was no need to uphold their image anymore.
She looked at Idris and said, âI believe everyone clearly heard what Mrs. Pond just said. Since she hates me so much, I donât think we have to keep in contact moving forward. Iâve donated my bone marrow to Ada, and that should be enough of a repayment for giving birth to me. From now on, Iâm no longer part of the Pond Family.â
Silvia wanted to leave, but Idris quickly stopped her.
âSilvia, blood is thicker than water. Your mother behaved irrationally because of her anger. Once she returns to her senses, Iâll ask her to apologize to you.â
Silvia remained cold, and her eyes were filled with determination. âThereâs no need for that. Iâm sure that Mrs. Pond doesnât want to apologize to me either. Also... Mr. Pond, shouldnât you be happy that I no longer want to associate with the Pond Family?â
Idris was momentarily stunned, and he felt a little flustered. Did Silvia find out what the tarot reader had said over a decade ago?
Although he was afraid that Silvia would bring harm to the Pond Family, it was beneficial to keep her around now that she was in a relationship with Neil. Perhaps, Neil would award Pond Corporation some projects as a result.
He was not willing to cut ties with Silvia.
âSilvia, since youâve made up your mind, I wonât stop you from leaving. I just want to say that weâll always be family, you can return whenever you want.â

After they left, the living room fell silent. Idris said a few words to liven up the atmosphere before he asked Ada and Mindy to follow him to his study.
Idris immediately gave Mindy another slap after he closed the door. The strong force made Mindy lose her balance and fall on the floor.
âUseless! This is how you invite Silvia back home for a meal? Do you realize that weâre trying to get a huge project from Remus Corporation? If we donât get it, Pond Corporation will be in trouble!â
Mindy sat on the floor and started to laugh maniacally.
âHahaha... You only care about Pond Corporation. Itâs more important to you than everyone else. I really regret marrying you, Idris!â
Idris was furious when he saw her conflicted expression. âIf I didnât work hard all these years and build up the company, do you think youâd be able to enjoy such a luxurious life? While you were shopping and hanging out with your friends, I was working. You didnât help me at all, and now youâre giving me trouble!â
Mindy sneered. âDonât sugarcoat it. I wanted to work, but you asked me to take care of the children because you didnât trust nannies. Now, youâre blaming me for it? Itâs hard for you at work, but isnât it difficult to take care of the kids as well?â
âThat was ages ago!â
Ada subconsciously clenched her fist when she saw her loving parents arguing.
She had no idea when their relationship had deteriorated to such a point. They were attacking each other with the most vicious words.
In the past, Ada would try to break up the fight. But now, she only felt frustrated.
