Chapter 293
“Am I the boss, or are you the boss? Should I give you my position?”
Ruby immediately shook her head. “I’ll inform the Design Department right away.”
Soon after, complaints rose all over Perficient’s Design Department.
[What’s wrong with Ada? She’s even more ridiculous than Gary Whitman. She’s a designer
too. Can she produce a few dozen designs in a week?]
[She doesn’t treat us as humans! I liked her when she won first place in the design
competition, but I’m starting to hate her more and more!]
[Forget it. Let’s just draw those designs. If we don’t submit them in a week, I wonder
what’s going to happen to us…]
Ada was clueless about her employees‘ dissatisfaction toward her because she was
focusing on dealing with MY Corporation.
Over in MY Corporation, Silvia continued reading through documents after she
However, she found it impossible to concentrate.

Neil had lied to her again. He claimed to go to work last night, but he actually left to help
Ada deal with the collaborator.
After a long hesitation, she decided to give him a chance.
She took her phone and gave him a call. He answered it very quickly.
“Why the sudden call? Do you miss me?”
Silvia subconsciously tightened her grip on her phone and slowly asked, “Neil, did you
really go to work last night?”
Right after she questioned him, he fell silent for a few seconds.
“Why are you asking about this all of a sudden?”
“Just answer my question.”
Neil remained silent again before he spoke in a low and deep voice.
“I’m sorry, Silvia.”
She did not say anything else and just hung up.
Half an hour later, Neil sent her a message.
[I’m downstairs at MY Corporation. Let’s meet. I want to explain things to you in person.]
When Silvia saw his message, she went downstairs.
Neil had parked his car by the road. Silvia walked up to the car and got in. “Explain,” she
said with a straight face.
Seeing how indifferent she was, Neil felt hurt. He subconsciously clenched his fists.
“I never planned to go over last night. I only decided to stop by when I couldn’t reach
Curtis on the phone. Nothing happened between me and her. I just called her a doctor and
left.”
Silvia gave him a skeptical look, and her eyes were full of contempt.
“Are you sure that you just called her doctor?”
Neil nodded. “Yes. Later, when I went home, I realized that you weren’t around. I rushed
over to Lose Demon once I found out that you were there.”
“I heard that you even got her a hotel room.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNeil frowned. “That’s because Curtis’s phone broke, so he couldn’t get her a room.”
Based on his description, Silvia could tell that nothing happened between him and Ada.
However, she could not forgive him so easily for lying to her.
“When we got back together, I asked you to cut off ties with Ada, and you also agreed. But
you lied to me after only two days.”
The disappointment in her eyes made him flustered.
He remained silent for a few seconds before he explained, “I really had no plans of seeing
her. I only helped her out this time because I owed her a favor. This won’t happen again.”
Silvia shook her head. “It’s always easy to make promises, but it’s obviously too difficult
for you to keep them. If you can’t stop seeing her, you shouldn’t have promised in the first
place.”
After that, she exited the car.
Neil stared at Silvia and did not go after her, but it was clear that he was in a bad mood.
In the coming days, Silvia would return to Elm Bay after work every day. She claimed to be
busy with work and never met Neil again.
Soon, it was the day of Abalene’s welcome party for Liam.
