An elderly lady enthusiastically introduced a potential partner to Silvia and asked her to save the personâs contact information. Being caught in the situation, Silvia considered saving the manâs number and explaining the situation to him later.
Suddenly, someone reached down from above and took her phone.
She turned around in surprise and frowned when she saw Neil.
âGive me back my phone.â
Neil looked at her with indifference and pocketed the phone.
âItâs not safe with you. Iâll keep it for you.â
The elderly ladies were unaware of Neil and Silviaâs marital status, so they appeared puzzled. One of them turned to Abalene and asked, âWhatâs going on?â
Just as Abalene was about to explain, Neil calmly said, âIâm sorry, but Silviaâs already married, and Iâm her husband. My grandmother was just trying to anger me when she asked you to introduce Silvia to a potential partner. I hope you wonât take it seriously.â
His words were shocking, and the others immediately turned to Abalene.
âIs this true? Why did you keep it a secret from us? We had no clue!â
âI canât believe it. We used to think that Neil would be the last to marry, but it turned out heâs the first among our grandchildren!â
âThatâs not nice of you, Abalene. Sheâs already your granddaughter-in-law, yet you still told us to introduce young men to her. You should treat us to dinner, or else, we wonât let it slide.â
...
As everyoneâs attention shifted to Abalene, Neil pulled Silvia away.
He only released her hand after they left the barbecue area and entered the tranquil woods nearby.
âAre you stupid? Why didnât you decline my grandmotherâs offer to introduce you to someone earlier?â
Silvia looked at him calmly. âWhy should I decline?â

She nodded. âI know. I was just planning to get to know him, nothing more.â
âHow could you?!â
Seeing the rage in his eyes, Silvia extended her hand. âCan I have my phone back?â
She wanted to enjoy a good barbecue, but Neil spoiled everything again. As expected, there would be no pleasant moment with him around.
He held her hand and said, âStay with me for a while, and Iâll return your phone to you.â
Silvia immediately pulled her hand away and coldly said, âKeep it!â
She could just buy a new one. She could not stand having to spend another moment alone with him.
As she turned to leave, Neil hugged her from behind and whispered, âSilvia, Iâm sorry for misunderstanding you today.â
She tensed up for a moment before she pushed him away. Then, she took a few steps back and glared at him. âStop it. If you truly felt sorry, you wouldnât allow Ada to remain by your side unharmed after watching the surveillance footage.â
Neilâs expression changed slightly. âI wonât let her cause you any harm in the future.â
Silvia burst into laughter, but her eyes still lacked warmth. âSince youâve chosen to protect her, donât apologize to me. I wonât let her get away just because youâre regretful.â
âWhat do you intend to do to Ada?!â
