Silvia glanced at Neil with a faint smile. Then, she picked up the meatball and placed it on his plate. âYou should eat more too. After all, you need to work every day. Thatâs very tiring.â
Ada could not stand it any longer. She looked at Neil with teary eyes and asked, âNeil, have you forgotten your promise?â
His expression changed slightly, and he remained silent.
Sensing the tension in the air, Idris promptly intervened. âMr. Remus, let me raise a toast to you.â
Neil did not show any disrespect, and the two of them shared a toast. Idris then brought up a different subject.
The atmosphere throughout the rest of dinner was relatively harmonious. Silvia stood up after she was done.
âIâve finished eating.â
As she turned to leave, Neil gripped her wrist firmly and prevented her from breaking free.
âNeil, what are you doing?â
Silviaâs voice was low with a hint of anger.
Neil looked at her coldly. âStay with me. Iâm almost done with my food.â
âI want to take a walk.â
âIâll join you, then.â
Irritation flashed in her eyes.
As she was about to retort, Idris said, âSilvia, why donât you sit here with Mr. Remus for a while? Heâs been drinking, and heâs hardly had anything to eat. You can help him to some food.â
Silvia smiled sarcastically. âDonât you already have someone to serve him food? I think Adaâs been doing a good job. Why donât you ask her to continue?â
Adaâs expression instantly changed. She had done that to annoy Silvia, but Silvia made it sound like she was a servant.
She got up and looked at Silvia with a wounded expression. âI noticed that you were focused on eating, so I was just trying to help him. If it bothers you, I wonât do it anymore.â
Silvia sneered as she was growing weary of Adaâs innocent act. âYouâre helping him even in bed, huh?â
Adaâs face instantly turned pale, and her body began to tremble. She could not find the words to respond.
Mindy slammed her hand on the table and gave Silvia a look of pure disgust. âYouâre the one who isnât fulfilling your duties as a wife, yet you dare criticize Ada! Sheâs been close to Mr. Remus since they were children. Donât get jealous just because she served him food!â
Silvia chuckled and said, âIâm not jealous. Sheâs doing a great job, so Iâm letting her continue.â
âHow dare you!â
The atmosphere in the dining room had become unpleasant, but Silvia smiled and said, âTake your time with your meal. Iâll head back first.â
When Silvia walked away, Mindy got so furious that her face turned red. âSilvia Pond, if you leave right now, donât bother coming back!â
âMindy!â
Idris glared at her. His frustration was evident.
He had advised Mindy to control her emotions before Silviaâs arrival today, but she still lost her temper.
If Neil got angry because of this, it would spell trouble for the Pond Family.
Neil glanced at Ada, who was still in tears, and said, âIâm heading back. Thank you for your hospitality, Mr. Pond.â
Idrisâs expression darkened, but he mustered up the courage to say, âMr. Remus, about the project we discussed in the study...â
Neil was apathetic. âPond Corporation can bid on the project, but your companyâs capabilities will determine whether you can secure it or not.â
Idris was a little disappointed, but the opportunity to participate in the bidding was still a significant step forward. He quickly responded, âAlright.
Thank you, Mr. Remus! Let me see you to the door.â
âItâs okay.â
As soon as Neil walked out of the Pond Familyâs mansion, Ada caught up to him.

He could see that her eyes were swollen from crying and filled with sadness.
There was a time when those eyes were really bright.
âAda, itâs windy outside. You should head back.â
