Chapter 374
“Mrs. Pond, Silvia’s your daughter after all. Whenever she does something outrageous,
you’re the one who gets embarrassed. You should talk to her when you can.”
Mindy frowned and coldly replied, “She has severed ties with me. Her affairs are no longer
my
排
concern.”
Another person shook her head. “Even though you’ve severed ties, it doesn’t change the
fact that she’s your daughter.”

Annoyed by the conversation, Mindy stood up and said, “I feel a little unwell, so I’m going
back. Let’s meet another day.”
She left and did not care how the others felt about it.
She was still angry when she got home, so she gave Ada a call.
“I heard that you and Silvia are in court. What happened?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Mom, I’ll explain later. The hearing’s about to start,” Ada quickly replied.
Before Mindy could speak, the call abruptly ended.
She contemplated as she held her phone and eventually decided to ask Idris about it.
However, he did not answer even though she called three times in a row.
Therefore, she took her bag and asked the driver to take her to Pond Corporation. The
moment she arrived at Idris’s office, she saw a woman in a red dress walking out.
The woman was surprised to see Mindy, but she quickly smiled.
“Mrs. Pond, why didn’t you tell me that you were coming? I could’ve picked you up. Mr.
Pond is currently in a business discussion with his client. Let me take you to the lounge
first.”
Mindy frowned. “Who is he discussing business with?”
“A developer, Mrs. Pond. What would you like to drink?”
Sophia then led Mindy to the lounge.
“Just make me a cup of tea.”
“Sure, Mrs. Pond. Please wait a moment.”
Sophia returned shortly after. She placed the tea on the table with a smile and said, “I
need to get back to work. If you need anything or have any questions, feel free to give me
a call. I’ll be around.”
Mindy was still feeling annoyed, but she nodded and said, “Okay, go ahead.”
Half an hour later, Idris entered the lounge.
“I heard from Sophia that you came to see me. What’s the matter?”
Mindy looked at him and immediately noticed the irritation in his eyes.
“Do you know that a designer in Silvia’s company copied Perficient’s designs, so Ada’s
taking her to court?” she asked coldly.

Idris was stunned. He had been on an overseas business trip to launch a project, and he
just returned two days ago. He had been so busy that he never got a chance to go back
home and catch up on recent events.
“This is ridiculous! Going to court over such a small matter?! Our family’s reputation is
completely ruined!”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNo wonder his clients had been giving him strange looks. They had also been hesitant
about speaking with him over the last two days.
Idris took out his phone and called Ada, but no one answered after several attempts.
He set his phone aside in frustration and said to Mindy, “What a ‘wonderful‘ daughter
you’ve raised!”
Mindy was in disbelief, and she angrily responded, “Idris Pond, how could you say such a
thing?! Do you have no conscience?! It was Silvia’s company that plagiarized. Shouldn’t
Ada sue her company? Just because Neil likes Silvia, you’re willing to twist the truth to
please him?!”
Idris sneered. “I can’t be bothered to talk to you anymore. Go back before my patience
runs out!”
With that, Idris left in anger.
Mindy was extremely disappointed in him. She took a deep breath and left the company.
When she got downstairs to hail a taxi, she realized that she had forgotten her phone in
the lounge.
She suppressed her anger and went back. Upon arriving at the top floor, she found the
president’s office empty. Idris must have gone to a meeting.
