Silvia considered the fact that Neil had just saved her. Besides, it would not be convenient for her to cook in her current condition, so she nodded and said, âIâll stay here before I recover. Iâll move back home once I feel better.â
Neilâs gaze turned colder, and he remained silent. He clearly disagreed.
âOh yeah, whereâs Justus?â
âHeâs dead.â
Silvia gave him a surprised look and asked, âDid you kill him?â
âNo, he accidentally fell from the hill when he was running away. By the time we found him, the wild animals had gotten to him first.â
Even if he never fell down, Neil would not have allowed him to live either!
She nodded. âHe still has an accomplice, Darrion Torres.â
âAfter Justus died, Darrion turned himself in because he felt guilty.â
Neilâs eyes shone with suspicion immediately after. âYouâre just a junior staff member in MY Corporation. Why did Justus and Darrion put all this effort to capture you?â
Silvia looked down and said, âBecause Darrion tasked me to sign a contract with Justus. But Justus wanted to sleep with me in exchange for his signature, so I beat him up. Since he harbored a big grudge toward me, he made plans with Darrion to kidnap me.â
However, the suspicion in his eyes did not vanish. âIf that was the only issue, wouldnât it have been easier for Justus to just ask Darrion to fire you?
Besides, why did he need to involve Darrion in his kidnapping scheme?â
Silvia massaged her forehead with a frown and said, âHave you forgotten that Dulcie and I are best friends? If Darrion tried to fire me, Dulcie wouldnât agree!
âAs for why Justus got him involved, that manâs insane. How am I supposed to know what he was thinking?â
Neilâs gaze intensified, but he stopped asking.
âRest well. Iâll get some work done in the study. Just call me if anything happens.â
âOkay.â
She finally sighed in relief after he left.
Dulcie came to visit her in the afternoon. Once Dulcie realized that she was recovering, she felt more at ease.
âDo you know how terrified I was when I heard that you were kidnapped? Thank goodness youâre fine. Otherwise, Iâll kill Darrion and Justus!â
Silvia chuckled. âIâm fine, arenât I? Donât make a big deal out of it.â
âHow dare you say that Iâm making a big deal out of it! Do you realize if it werenât for Neil Remus, you probably wouldâve...â
Dulcieâs eyes suddenly turned red, and she did not finish her sentence.
âIâm not going to console you if you cry right now!â
Dulcie rolled her eyes and angrily said, âIâm not crying!â
âFine, youâre not crying. Iâm the one who wants to cry, okay?â
Dulcie wiped her tears before she took out a document from her bag. âHow are you going to handle this contract? If we submit it to the police, itâll be enough to put Darrion in prison for life!â
Silvia remained silent for a few seconds before she said, âDestroy it. I donât want anyone to learn that Iâm the president of MY Corporation.â
âYou donât want Neil to know, do you? Are you afraid that heâll start dividing your property?â
âHe should be the one afraid of me dividing his property. Itâs just that weâre going to get a divorce, and I donât want to have more problems.â
When she thought of Neil, she suddenly found it hard to describe her emotions, and it bothered her.
Ever since she discovered that he had saved her, she had not been as determined to divorce him as before.
However, if they stayed together, she would become that pitiful Silvia of the past again. She would not let that happen!
Dulcie stayed for a while longer before she left with the contract.
As Silvia rested over the next few days, the police came to take her statement several times.
During their last visit, the police looked at her and said, âMiss Pond, Darrion Torres wants to see you.â
