When Silvia Pond received a message from Ada Pond, she was picking out a gift for Neil
Remus. It was for their third wedding anniversary. Silvia opened the message, but several
intimate photos of two people caught her off guard. Her face instantly turned pale when
she realized who they were. They were Neil and Ada, her twin sister! The photos were of
them hugging and k*ssing each other. But she spotted one thing in all of them—Neil’s
loving gaze as he looked at Ada. Even though Neil and Silvia had been married for three
years, he had never looked at her with such a gaze. [Does it look familiar?] Silvia rubbed
her temples. The place in the photos did look familiar, but before she could recall where it
was, another message from Ada popped up. [You were supposed to live in that house after
the wedding. Don’t you recognize it? [Oh, I almost forgot. Neil refused to let you in the
house except for your wedding night. Do you know why? [Because Neil bought the house
for me! If his grandmother hadn’t taken matters into her own hands on your wedding day,
you would’ve never had a chance to set foot inside!] Ada’s messages made Silvia’s heart
beat faster. Her hands trembled as she read them. She clenched her phone and slowly
typed a reply. [Stop sending me these photos. Your relationship with Neil is a thing of the
past.] [Haha. Do you think we’re really over? [I’ve been back in the country for two
months. Neil hasn’t been home in the past two months, has he? [He hasn’t had time to go
home because he’s been staying with me at the house every day after work. Do you know
what he tells me after we have S**? He says you’re boring. You’re no different from a S**
doll. [You’re a failure of a woman. If I were you, I would’ve killed myself long ago! [You’d
better give up on Neil while he’s still on good terms with you for old time’s sake.

she made it home. She only snapped out of her thoughts when she heard the fingerprint
lock unlocking. Neil opened the door and saw Silvia sitting near the entrance. He
subconsciously frowned in displeasure. “Why are you sitting here?” Silvia looked at him.
His handsome face still made her heart flutter. She tried to find a glimmer of affection in
his eyes, but all she saw was annoyance. Neil had looked at her that way for the past
three years. She had grown accustomed to it, but her heart ached when she knew that he
could look at another woman tenderly. She slowly got up and looked Neil in the eye. “Why
did you hide Ada’s return from me?” A hint of surprise flashed in Neil’s eyes, but he
answered indifferently, “You and Ada aren’t on good terms, so I had no reason to tell you.”
Silvia forced a smile. Was it because he had no reason, or was he afraid that she would
learn about his infidelity? She closed her eyes and slowly said, “Neil Remus, if you think of
me as your wife, you wouldn’t have slept with Ada in that house. It was supposed to be
ours!” Neil’s calm facade cracked a little. “How did you know?” “You’re wondering how I
found out? Ask Ada! I wonder why a mistress would have the audacity to send me those
photos to disgust me!” “Silvia Pond!” Neil was infuriated. He looked at Silvia coldly. The
Ada he knew was innocent. She would not hurt anyone, let alone provoke Silvia. “There’s
nothing between Ada and me. She’s only staying at that house temporarily. Besides, she’d
never send you any photos!” Neil’s trust in Ada hurt Silvia. Her eyes immediately turned
red. “Temporarily? Do you think I’m stupid? Since you believe she’d never send those
photos, are you implying that I’m slandering her?” “I might trust you if it were another
person, but you’ve always disliked Ada. You’ve done something similar in the past.” Silvia
pursed her l*ps and felt absurd. Neil had instinctively sided with Ada without asking her for
any details. No wonder Ada dared to send Silvia those photos. She probably knew that Neil
would stand by her. Silvia closed her eyes wearily and said in an indifferent tone,
“Whatever. Believe what you want.” Neil got angry. “Ada owes you nothing. Stop speaking
ill of her!” he said in an icy tone. Silvia had done nothing to Ada, yet Neil was already
protective of her. If Silvia were to harm Ada, he would probably make her pay the price.
Silvia wore a self-deprecating smile. “Neil, have you ever liked me in the three years of our
marriage? Even a tiny bit?” Neil’s cold gaze landed on Silvia. “Since I married you, I’ll take
care of you for life.” His refusal to answer spoke volumes. He never liked her. Silvia
chuckled. She turned around as she did not want him to see her tears. Then, she said with
a broken heart, “Let’s get a divorce.” Despite working hard for three years, she had only
been deceiving herself by believing that she could win his heart. It was time to face reality.
Neil’s displeasure and impatience grew. “Silvia, stop being unreasonable!” Silvia could not
believe that he found her unreasonable. She wiped her tears with the back of her hand
and looked at Neil seriously. “I’m not being unreasonable. I’ll get a lawyer to draft the
papers. I won’t claim a single cent!” she said. Silvia did not offer Neil any of her personal
assets when she married him. Since they were going to be divorced, she did not want him
to think that she was after his money. Neil’s expression darkened when he realized how
serious Silvia was. He was exuding a cold aura. “Silvia, I don’t have time to argue with
you. I’ll pretend that I didn’t hear what you said. Let’s talk when you calm down.” Neil
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthen left without hesitation. It was his usual tactic whenever they quarreled. He would give
Silvia the silent treatment until she gave in to him. Silvia only realized how pitiful she had
been in the past after she decided to get a divorce. Neil never even bothered trying to
comfort her when they argued. However, all this would end soon. The next morning, Silvia
met up with a lawyer to draft a divorce agreement. While he printed the agreement, the
lawyer tried to dissuade her against her decision. “Mrs. Remus, Remus Corporation is now
worth hundreds of billions. You’ve been married to Mr. Remus for three years and have
burdened yourself by keeping it a secret. It’ll be reasonable even if you demand several
hundred million dollars.” Silvia forced a smile. “It’s fine. I only want to divorce him as soon
as possible.” The lawyer gave up after he saw her determination. He gave her the divorce
agreement and left. Silvia fl*pped to the last page and signed without hesitation. She took
off her ring and placed it on the agreement. Then, she got up and went upstairs to pack
her things. She finished packing in less than an hour since she did not have many things.
She did not want anything Neil had given her, so one suitcase was enough. Before she left,
Silvia took one last look at the mansion where she had lived for three years. She felt no
sense of attachment toward it. No matter how hard she tried, she failed to get the one
thing she wanted. He never belonged to her. It took her three years to understand this,
but it was not too late. Silvia walked out of the mansion and saw a red Lamborghini parked
in front of the door. The driver noticed her and honked. Silvia put her suitcase in the trunk
and got into the passenger seat. The driver was a woman with a curvy figure and fair skin.
She was also wearing a pair of oversized sunglasses that covered most of her face. It
made her features more delicate. Once Silvia was in the car, Dulcie Reed cocked an
eyebrow and asked, “Have you made up your mind?”
