âMom, did you hear that itâs Silviaâs funeral today?â
Stupefied, Mindy said coldly, âIgnore it. She would only make me mad even if she was alive.â
She then handed Ada a bowl of chicken soup. âDrink this. Itâs been a few days since youâve given birth. Why have none of the Remus Family members visited you? Plus, Madam Remus promised to give you ten percent of the shares. Is she planning to break her promise?â
Ada looked uneasy for a moment. âNo. My babyâs her great-grandchild. Obviously, sheâs not going back on her word.â
Mindy stopped dwelling on it because of Adaâs confidence, but she still found it strange.
Something sparked in her mind when Ada suddenly asked, âBy the way, hasnât anyone from the old mansion come over?
Speaking of which, Mindy was full of delight. âDidnât that b*stard go crazy from the abuse? Theyâre all busy looking for doctors in vain because theyâre hoping that heâll be cured!â
Ruthlessness gleamed in Adaâs eyes, and she stressed her words, âJust pretend not to know anything and never mention it in front of anyone.
Otherwise, weâre doomed.â
Mindy nodded. âDonât worry. I wonât say a word!â
...
After Silviaâs funeral, Neil would spend all his time in the company attending meetings or reading documents.
Curtis would find him still working in the office when he clocked out. He would persuade Neil to go home repeatedly, but Neil would not heed his advice.
Consequently, Neil grew haggard from torturing himself this way. Feeling helpless, Curtis had no choice but to call Abalene over.
Neil glared at him. âCurtis, whoâs the one paying you?â
Curtis lowered his head guiltily. Abalene spoke up before he could, âNeil, heâs doing this for your sake. Instead of blaming him, you should raise his salary for what heâs done!â
Abaleneâs suggestion gained Curtisâs secret approval. Although his salary was way beyond the market price, he would never refuse a raise.
Neil gave Abalene an apathetic look. âGrandma, if youâre here to advise me, you can leave now.â
âGrandma, isnât that what Iâm doing?â Neil interrupted her indifferently.
âYouâll collapse in a month if you work like this.â
âI know what Iâm doing.â
Neil helplessly said, âGrandma, please donât make things difficult for meââ
âAm I? Neil, youâre doing it yourself.â
Gradually, he fell silent. After some time, he slowly said, âBut apart from this, I donât know how else to forget about her.â
Every time he recalled how he had failed to save Silvia, he would feel excruciating grief. It was a living hell.
âItâs only normal that you canât let her go right now. Donât force yourself to. You should rest and let time do the job for you.â
Neil kept his head low, and his eyes were red. âOkay. Iâll go back to Harmony Yard from now on.â
After Abalene left, Neil called Curtis into his office.
