Chapter 161
Silvia spat out a mouthful of water.
Remembering her relationship with Neil, Isla quickly clarified, “Don’t get me wrong. I’m
not trying to steal Neil from you. I just have a thing for his type.
The last time she had dinner with David, he told her that Neil and Silvia were married. No
one knew how hard she tried to suppress her curiosity and not ask Silvia about it.
Silvia wiped the table and calmly said, “He and I are divorced. If you like him, you can go
for it.”
Isla’s eyes widened in disbelief.
She had just learned about her best friend’s marriage, but she was suddenly hearing
about a divorce
now….
Seeing how shocked she was, Silvia decided to change the subject. “Let’s not dwell on
this. Shall we go? I’m starving.”
After they arrived at the restaurant and placed their orders, Isla finally processed the
whole thing.

Silvia did not think it was a pity to divorce Neil. “I don’t love him anymore.”
“I see ”
She could not argue with Silvia’s reason.
After their meal, they unexpectedly ran into Neil and Ada at the door.
Ever since they signed the divorce agreement, Neil and Silvia had not seen each other.
It appeared that his legs were healing well, and he was no longer reliant on a wheelchair.
Silvia should have felt relieved, but for some reason, she felt an inexplicable heaviness in
her heart.
Neil glanced at her indifferently and averted his gaze as if she was a stranger.
Ada wore a gentle smile, but she was unmistakably smug.
“Silvia, were you here for a meal too? It’s a shame that we’re late. Otherwise, we could
have dined together.”
Silvia had no interest in engaging with Ada. She calmly held Isla’s arm and left.
Ada looked at them and asked, “Neil, why did Silvia act as if she didn’t see us?”
Neil glanced at her and responded indifferently, “Aren’t you hungry? Let’s go inside.”
He proceeded to enter the restaurant without paying her further attention.
Ada had helped a lot with Abalene’s birthday party. As a token of appreciation, Melanie
made plans to take her out for a meal. Unfortunately, Melanie had been extremely busy
lately. Therefore, shel requested that Neil go in her place and dine with Ada.
Neil was reluctant about going, but Melanie pointed out that since he had divorced Silvia,
he should interact more with Ada.
To avoid her persistent lecturing, Neil had no choice but to comply.
He did not expect to run into Silvia at the restaurant. She clearly saw him but acted like
she did not recognize him. It seemed that her boldness had increased after the divorce.
However, the woman accompanying her seemed familiar.
Neil took out his phone and sent a message to David.
Neil: Have you been pursuing a celebrity lately?
David: Yeah. Why do you ask?
Neil: What’s her name?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmDavid: Why do you want to know her name?
Neil: I just saw Silvia having dinner with a woman, and she looked like the one you’re
interested in.

When David decided Isla, he shared her photos in their group chat. Henry even bet that
she would not be interested in David. This infuriated him so much that he blocked Henry
for several days.
David: Oh, Isla and Silvia are friends. The last time went out for dinner, we bumped into
Silvia,
and she was having dinner with Isla.
Neil: Do they dine together frequently?
WE
David: I’m not sure, but they do appear to have a close relationship.
Neil: Let me know the next time you have a meal with her.
David: Don’t tell me you have your eyes set on Isla?!
Neil was about to reply when Ada suddenly said, “Why are you so focused on your phone?
You don’t want to eat with me at all, do you?”
