Chapter 308
Over in Remus Corporation, Curtis was reporting to Neil in the president’s office.
“Perficient is using the same trick they used last year to fight MY Corporation in a price
war. So far, they’ve lost hundreds of thousands of dollars. Should I ask Miss Ada Pond to
stop this?”
After all, Perficient was known to lose money despite their victories in the end. They would
engage in price wars and attack their opponents using other illegal means.
If this continued, Perficient would rapidly lose the 140 million dollars that Remus
Corporation had invested in them.

Neil Curtis. “How is
at MY Corporation?”
“MY Corporation announced that there will be a fifty–percent discount on all their items
this morning. Perficient followed suit and gave a sixty–percent discount. Since then, there
hasn’t been any other news from MY Corporation.”
After a brief silence, Neil spoke in a low voice, “Just ignore it. Before that, send one of our
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtmanagers to Perficient to assist Ada. You don’t have to go there anymore.”
‘Do I still have to report Perficient’s affairs to you in the future?”
“No. You don’t have to tell me anything about Perficient from now on.”
“Understood.”
Curtis lowered his head and realized that Neil had truly decided to ignore Perficient.
After he dealt with several more documents, Neil clocked out and picked Silvia up from MY
Corporation.
Silvia was incredibly busy. After she entered the car, she greeted Neil and continued to
read through her documents. When Neil asked her what she felt like eating, she said
anything would do.
Neil thought that he would have time to chat with Silvia after work. Unexpectedly, she was
busy with her own work.
“Work is endless. You should rest after working hours.”
Silvia looked at him in shock. “If I’m not mistaken, you always work overtime, and your
sometimes burn the midnight oil.”
Neil was rendered speechless.
Silvia’s phone broke the silence when it suddenly rang.
It was a call from Idris. He informed her that Bethany had been hospitalized due to a fall.
Idris asked her to drop by the hospital as well.
After Silvia hung up, Neil glanced at her as unknown thoughts occupied her mind.
“You don’t have to go if you don’t want to. I’m sure the Pond Family won’t make a big fuss
out of it because of me,” he muttered.
Shaking her head, Silvia explained, “I want to go.
At the end of the day, Bethany was her nominal grandmother, and it would not be right to
skip
this visit.
“Okay, let’s go together.”
“It’s alright. Just wait for me in the car.”
She did not want the Pond Family to learn that she had gotten back together with Neil.
Otherwise, they might cause unnecessary trouble.
However, Neil frowned with displeasure. “You don’t want others to see me, do you?”
“I’m sure they’ll be cautious and uneasy if they see you.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNeil was at a loss for words. He felt that it was not his fault.
He remained quiet but he was clearly angry.
His silence continued until they reached the hospital’s entrance. As Silvia got out of the
car, Neil failed to hold himself back, and he grabbed her wrist.
“Silvia!”
She looked at him helplessly. “Why do you insist on going? Don’t tell me you have your
mind. set on something else? Do you actually want to see Ada?”
She could feel his mood worsen because of her questions.
“Either I go with you, or both of us don’t go. Pick one.”
In the end, Silvia failed to dissuade him, and they went to see Bethany
to see Bethany together.
The Pond Family was flabbergasted when they saw him tagging along. Neil and Silvia were
supposed to be divorced.
Idris snapped back to reality first and hurriedly said, “Why is Mr. Remus here with you,
Silvia?”
She wanted to lie that she had coincidentally bumped into Neil. However, he held her by
the waist and calmly explained, “Sil and I are in a relationship, so I decided to visit Mrs.
Pond with her when I heard the news.”
Silvia was speechless.
