Chapter 96

Silvia stared him down.

“So, what did you find? Did you receive photos of me k*ssing or having S** with him?”

Neil frowned, but she left the living room before he could respond.

The silence between them was so obvious that even Leo and the housekeeper noticed it.

The housekeeper approached Silvia and whispered, “Miss Pond, have you had an argument with Mr. Remus?”

“No. Why do you ask?”

“He seems to be in a bad mood lately.”

After a brief silence, Silvia said, “It’s probably because of his workload at the company. Don’t worry about him. He’ll be fine in a while.”

“Alright.”

After the housekeeper left, she waited on the couch for Neil to return.

Around 7 p.m., Curtis called to inform her that Neil had a dinner party, so he would not be back for dinner.

After she hung up, she did not bother reheating the food and just had a few bites. Then, she watched TV for a while before she headed to bed.

Throughout the party, Neil requested his phone from Curtis every half an hour.
