Chapter 372
“Sure. Send me the details once you’ve set the time and ce.”
After that, Silvia pondered briefly and gave Neil a call.
“I’m meeting Mr. Anderson for dinner tonight. You don’t have to pick me up.”
A few secondster, Neil finally replied in displeasure, “Ryan Anderson?”
“Yeah.”
“I’ll go with you.”
Silvia stopped flipping through the documents in her hand. She frowned and said, “We’re going to
discuss business. It’s not convenient for you to join.”
Neil fell silent, but he did not end the call.
Sensing his dissatisfaction, Silvia said with resignation, “It’s strictly business. I’ll be back once we’re
done, okay?”
“Make sure you’re back by 9 p.m., and no drinking!”
Silvia chuckled. “Alright. I won’t drink.”
Silvia arrived at the appointed restaurant at 6 p.m.
Once she sat across from Ryan, she smiled and said, “Sorry for beingte. I got caught in some traffic.‘
Ryan passed her the menu and replied, “No worries. You’re notte. I came early.”
Silvia took the menu and ordered two dishes that caught her eye. Then, she handed the menu back to
him.
“I haven’t been to this restaurant before, so I’m not sure what’s good. Why don’t you pick the rest, Mr.
Anderson?”
Sensing that she was trying to keep her distance, a hint of disappointment shed in his eyes. He
ordered two more dishes and handed the menu back to the waiter.
“That’s all.”
Once the waiter left, Ryan turned his gaze to Silvia and asked, “How have you and Neil beentely?”
“We’re doing well. Let’s talk about our coboration, Mr. Anderson. MY Corporation usually acts as a
supplier for other brands. In return, these brands buy our designs and products. However, I’ve heard
that Anderson Corporation has its own sub–brands.”
Ryan nodded. “Yes, but we’re looking to expand our market. In addition, we’re on a tight schedule, so
we need to partner with otherpanies.”
“Of course, Mr. Anderson. Please share the requirements you have in mind.”
They continued their discussion during their meal, and before they realized, it was past 9 p.m.
Silvia only noticed howte it was when she received a call from Nell.
As soon as she answered it, she heard his angry voice.
“Where are you right now?”
She felt a little guilty. “I’m still at the restaurant, but we’re wrapping up. I’ll head back shortly.”
After the call ended, she turned to Ryan and said, “Mr. Anderson, it was a pleasure talking with you
tonight. Let’s go through the coboration details another day.”
He smiled gently. “Okay.”
They then left the restaurant together. Ryan got into his car, but he did not rush to start the engine.
Instead, he silently watched over Silvia until her car vanished from view. Only then did he start the
engine and drive away.
It was past 10 p.m. when Silvia returned to the mansion.
The moment she opened the door, she found Neil sitting on the couch in displeasure. It was as if
someone had killed his cat.
Knowing that she was in the wrong, she changed her shoes and sat beside him. She looked at him as
she apologized, “I’m sorry. I lost track of time during our business discussion. Next time, I’ll-”
Before she could finish speaking, Neil kissed her.
Silvia could sense that he was unusually aggressive, and her eyes flickered with surprise. She hooked
her hands around his neck and deepened the kiss.
By the time it was over, she was drained of energy. She could only rest against his chest to catch her
breath.
Soon after, she heard a cold and domineering voice that allowed no room for discussion. “Stay away
from Ryan!”
Silvia was annoyed. She looked at him and said, “MY Corporation and Anderson Corporation are in
talks for a coboration. We’ll inevitably meet. Besides, he’s a good friend of yours. What could happenThis belongs to N?velDrama.Org.
between us?”
Her face was flushed because the kiss had aroused her, and her eyes were wide open. Nevertheless,
she was ring at Neil.
