Chapter 252


    Neil remained indifferent as he replied, “I have no objection.”


    “Alright, Liam will start working at Remus Corporation tomorrow.”


    With that settled, Abalene stood up and said, “I’m getting tired. You all should go back and rest. Silvia,


    come with me. I need to talk to you.”


    Silvia followed Abalene. In Abelene’s bedroom, she looked at Silvia intently and asked, “Silvia, is there


    no chance for you and Neil to get back together?”


    She genuinely liked Silvia and got along well with her, so she wanted to help Neil reconcile with Silvia.


    Silvia pursed her lips, nodded, and said, “Yes, Madam Remus. Mr. Remus and I are not meant to be.


    He likes Ada. It’s better for us to go our separate ways.


    “But from what I see, he likes you now.”


    Abalene’s words made Silvia’s heart skip a beat.


    Would Neil like her?


    “You got it wrong, Madam Remus. He’s just showing concern for me because I suddenly decided to


    leave him, and he can’t get used to my absence yet. He can’t possibly like me.”


    Abalene held Silvia’s hand and slowly said, “If he really likes you, would you be willing to give him


    another chance?”


    Silvia lowered her head. After a moment of silence, she shook her head.


    “Madam Remus, my love for him has faded over the past three years. I don’t want to go.


    through that disappointment again.”


    Abalene sadly patted Silvia’s hand and said, “I understand.”


    Seeing Abalene’s disappointed expression, Silvia felt a bit remorseful. But rather than give Abalene


    false hope, it was better to help her ept reality.


    When Silvia left Abalene’s bedroom, Neil was left in the living


    ng room.


    Neil heard her footsteps. He rose from the couch and turned to her.


    “Are

    “Yes.”


    done talking with my grandmother?”


    He looked down at her. The soft light from the ceiling poured over his head. His usually cold eyes


    carried a hint of tenderness that made her heart race.


    “I’ll drive you back.”


    Neil’s voice snapped Silvia out of her thoughts. She promptly regained her responded casually, “Sure,


    okay.”

    Silvia realized she had been considering getting back together with Neiltely. a good sign. It looked


    like she needed to find a way to stay calm.


    It was not


    Both of them stayed silent on the way back.


    The car stopped at the mansion’s entrance. When Silvia was about to get out, Neil suddenly grabbed


    her wrist.


    Silvia was surprised by his action. Just as she was about to ask him about it, he unexpectedly kissed


    her.


    She was momentarily taken aback. Before she could push Neil away, he withdrew on his own. “I’m


    leaving for a business trip to Mand tomorrow. It’ll probably take a week.”


    Silvia frowned. “You don’t have to tell me about it.”


    “But I want to tell you.”


    Silvia raised her head and met Neil’s tender gaze. She coldly said, “Mr. Remus, if you continue to act


    like this, we might need to end our current rtionship.”


    Neil wore a self–deprecating smile. He averted his gaze and softly said, “I get it.”


    “Thank you for taking me back.”


    After that, Silvia got out of the car and left without looking back.


    Neil stayed in the car for a few minutes before driving away.

    The mansion was pitch–ck Apparently, I was at another event.


    Silvia did not turn on the lights. She sat on the couch, closed her eyes, and recalled her time with Neil


    during this period.


    Her once firm decision not to get back together with Neil probably wavered when she saw him


    unexpectedly appear in the flood.


    She slowly opened her eyes and made a decision. She could not continue like this, or she would


    eventually fall in love with him again!


    The next morning, right after Silvia got to the office, Sigwald came to talk to her.
