Chapter 5


    Chris was taken aback. He subconsciously gripped the doorknob, frozen with shock. “Chris, why are


    you standing at the…” Silvia’s words trailed off as she spotted Neil standing opposite Chris. She


    frowned while she dried her hair with a towel. “Why are you here?” Neil sneered and red at her.


    “Looks like I’vee at the wrong time. Am I interrupting you two?” Silvia clenched the towel as she


    put on a calm facade. “You’ve probably seen the divorce agreement. When are you free? We need the


    divorce certificate,” she said. “Silvia Pond, I never agreed to the divorce! Come back with me!” Noticing


    Neil’s intention to grab Silvia’s hand, Chris quickly stood in front of Silvia. Neil red at Chris, and his


    voice was cold. “Get lost if you don’t want to be shut out by all media!” Chris gave Neil a cold nce


    and confronted him with a fearless attitude. “Mr. Remus, I’m afraid it won’t be easy to do so. Besides,


    Silvia doesn’t want to go with you.” Chris had formed numerous connections in the entertainment


    industry over the years. He would not be ruined just because Neil wanted him gone. Neil’s expression


    turned malicious. He took his phone out to make a call. Silvia had been standing behind Chris. Right


    then, she said, “Neil, don’t get unrted people involved. Let’s talk.” Neil put his phone down as his


    anger escted. He stared at her with contempt and said, “Are you worried about him? I’ve been away


    from Ryoln City for only a month, but you’ve already found yourself a sugar baby. How ‘efficient’ of


    you!” Silvia ignored him and turned to Chris. “Chris, you can go inside. I’ll talk with him..” Chris was


    worried, but he was in no position to interfere with their affairs since they were married. “Okay. Just call


    out if you need help.” Once Chris left, Silvia turned back to Neil. However, Neil immediately dragged


    her away. “What are you doing?!” Silvia was furious. Neil was inconsiderate even when they were


    about to get a divorce. She regretted her decision to marry him! Neil remained hostile and said nothing.


    He pushed Silvia into the car forcefully, got in from the other side, and started the engine. He drove so


    fast that they traveled halfway down the mountain in no time. Silvia looked at him angrily. “Let me out!


    Neil Remus, why are you doing this?!” “Fasten your seat belt!” Neil gripped the steering wheel. The


    veins in his hands bulged. He was obviously infuriated. Silvia did not do as he asked. She looked at


    him indifferently and said, “Neil, I wasn’t being impulsive or unreasonable when I said I wanted a


    divorce. I meant it.” The ck Maybach screeched to a halt on the side of the road. The inertia made


    Silvia hit her head on the windshield. The pain made her frown and take a sharp breath. Before she


    could collect herself, she heard Neil’s sneer. “You want a divorce so you can be with your sugar baby?


    No way!” Rubbing her head in frustration, Silvia snapped. “Neil Remus! Are you out of your mind?! I


    know you like Ada! I’m willing to get a divorce, so what else do you want?!” Neil’s expression grew


    even colder. “What does this have to do with Ada?” Silvia smiled with mockery and retorted, “Why


    wouldn’t this have anything to do with her? Don’t you like her?” Silvia’s question silenced him. After a


    long pause, Neil looked at Silvia without affection and said, “You don’t have the right to use me. At


    least I’m not cheating on you. You’re my wife, but you’re staying with another man in his mansion!”


    “You’re not cheating on me? You won’t admit it until I catch you in the act, will you?!” “Silvia Pond!”


    Silvia regained herposure when she saw how furious he was. She calmly averted her gaze and


    said, “Whatever happens, I’ve decided to get a divorce.” “What if I disagree?” Annoyance shed in


    Silvia’s eyes as she grew increasingly frustrated. She had no intention of conversing further with Neil.


    Neil frowned when he noticed her changed demeanor toward him. Right as he was about to speak, his


    phone rang. It was a call from Ada. Neil nced at Silvia and answered it. “Ada, what’s wrong?” “Neil,


    the power went out in the mansion. I’m scared… Can youe over and stay with me?” Ada’s voice


    trembled and cracked. She had been afraid of the dark since she was a child. She used to be afraid of


    walking on dimly lit streets. She also had to sleep with the lights on every day. Staying alone in a


    mansion without electricity must have terrified her. “Don’t be scared. I’ll be there soon. Everything will


    be fine.” After he hung up, Neil found Silvia giving him a mocking look. For the first time, he exined,


    “The mansion lost power, so I’m going to check on Ada. Take a taxi and go home on your own.”


    Following a few seconds of silence, he continued, “Stop thinking about getting a divorce. I’ll never


    agree to it.” Silvia pretended to be indifferent and slowly said, “Neil, it doesn’t concern me whether you


    agree or not. I don’t love you anymore. I’m definitely going through with it!”Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org.
