Chapter 165
Silvia smiled. “Freshen up and get some rest. I have work in the morning.”
“I’m not working for now. Can I stay here with you in the meantime? Don’t worry. I’ll pay
rent!”
“We’re so close. There’s no need for rent.‘
“Thank you very much.”
Isla had made breakfast by the time Silvia went downstairs the next morning.
“You don’t have to wake up early and make breakfast. I can simply grab something on the
way to work.”
Isla passed her a bun and said, “No way. I can’t just leech off of you. From now on, I’ll
make you breakfast and dinner!”
“There’s really no need for that.”
Isla immediately added, “I’ve made up my mind. If you won’t let me pay rent, you have to
let me prepare your meals. Since I have to prepare my own meals, it’s no big deal for me
to prepare yours as well.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSilvia had no choice but to agree. “Alright. But you can stop anytime if you’re tired.”
“Alright! Hurry up and have your breakfast before you leave for work.”
“Sure.”
Silvia headed to MY Corporation after that.
The company was currently bidding on a big project. If they managed to secure this
project, MY Corporation would experience wonderful growth in the coming year.
Dulcie approached Silvia with some files in her hands when she reached the office.
“Miss Pond, Perficient is bidding on this project too. They’ve already connected with
Anderson Corporation.”
Silvia frowned when she heard this. Perficient was a fashion arm under Remus
Corporation, which focused on luxury goods. This project was incredibly important for MY
Corporation, but it was dispensable to Perficient.
However, since Neil and Ryan were friends, MY Corporation might not stand a chance if
Perficient really wanted the project.
“Try to find out why Perficient is suddenly interested in this project.”
Was Neil trying to settle the score because she rejected his acquisition request?
She immediately denied the possibility. She knew him, and he would not do that to MY
Corporation.
After Dulcie left, Silvia hesitated for a while before she called her secretary.
“Make an appointment with the CEO of Anderson Corporation.”
Dulcie had hired two secretaries for Silvia–Joe Miller and Eva White. Both of them had
three working experiences, so it was easy for them to adapt.

Eva was in charge of administrative work while Joe was involved in business
appointments. Silvia would even bring him along.
Soon after, Joe came over to give her an update.
“Miss Pond, Mr. Anderson is free after 8 p.m. tomorrow.”
She nodded. “Alright. Please make a dinner reservation with Mr. Anderson.”
Meanwhile, Curtis was giving Neil an update on Perficient in his office. He furrowed his
eyebrows as he said, “Perficient’s business has been going downhill in the past few years.

it’ll probably go bankrupt in six months.”
Neil remained silent for a while before he sternly said, “Set up a meeting with Perficient’s
management!”
“Alright, Mr. Remus.‘
That morning, Neil fired more than half of the management team. The remaining members
were extremely afraid that he would call them out.
After that, he restructured the management team and their respective job roles. “If
Perficient remains the same after half a month, you should hand in your resignation!” he
said coldly.
The newly appointed general manager, Gary Whitman, carefully said, “Mr. Remus, we’ve
been bidding on a project recently. It’s a collaboration with one of the fabric manufacturing
companies under Anderson Corporation. If we manage to sign the deal, Perficient will save
a few billion dollars. But we’re a little late to the game, and MY Corporation might win the
bid instead.”
“Are you asking me to negotiate this deal for you?” Neil asked in dissatisfaction.
