Silvia frowned again and said with displeasure, âI never intended to flirt with him. Why would you think that?â
âWell, it just appeared that way to me.â
Silvia was speechless.
She had no idea what was going on in Neilâs mind.
She looked out of the window and stopped paying attention to him. For a brief moment, she considered running a background check on Liam.
However, she soon gave up on the idea. After her divorce from Neil, she would have no connection to the Remus Family. Besides, even if Liam was dangerous, he had no reason to harm her.
With that thought, her concerns disappeared instantly.
Meanwhile, Melanie immediately called Jake upon returning to the Remus Familyâs mansion.
âJake, Liamâs back!â
In less than half an hour, Jake returned as well.
âWhat happened?â
Jake was heading to Harmony Yard when he received a call from Melanie. He promptly returned once he heard about Liam.
âHe appeared unexpectedly just as Madam Remus was about to cut the cake. Do you think heâs back to fight for Remus Corporation?â
If Sean Remus and Beatrice Gould never died in that car accident and if Liam had not suddenly disappeared, Neil might not have become the president of Remus Corporation.
Jakeâs expression turned serious. He shook his head and said, âIâm not sure. Weâll have to wait and see. Neilâs been in charge of Remus Corporation all these years. Itâs okay if all Liam wants is a couple of shares. But if heâs trying to take control of Remus Corporation, it wonât be a simple task.â
Melanie frowned and grumbled, âWhy return after all this time?â
She wished that Liam never returned for the rest of his life.
Jake glared at her and sternly said, âAt the end of the day, Liam is still my nephew. Since his parents have passed away, Iâll treat him as a son from now on. Donât let me hear you grumbling about him again. If you do, donât be surprised when I lose my temper!â
His stern words frightened Melanie. Her face turned pale as she mumbled, âI understand.â
âI have some work to handle at the company, so Iâll head back to take care of it. I wonât be returning tonight.â
Melanie watched him walk away with a mix of disappointment and frustration. She felt helpless. Their marriage was primarily a business arrangement, and she knew that he did not love her.
Over the next month, Winston would give Neil a massage on a daily basis. Gradually, his legs began to show signs of recovery.
One evening, Winston asked Neil to stand up and take a few steps after the massage.
Silvia eagerly looked on as Neil slowly took a few steps forward. Intense pain shot through his legs, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
However, he did not whine about it. He walked around the room for ten minutes before returning to his wheelchair.
Winston nodded and said, âMr. Remus, with daily rehabilitation, you should be able to stand on your feet in about two weeks.â
Neilâs expression remained unchanged. He showed no joy at the idea of his legs getting better.
âYouâve worked hard, Dr. Russell. How much do I owe you for these sessions? Iâll have my secretary transfer the payment to your account.â
Winston did not hesitate to accept the payment. âA million will do. Iâll share my account details with Miss Pond later.â
âAlright.â
After Winston left, Silvia looked at Neil and asked, âMr. Remus, your legs are going to heal. Arenât you happy?â
âI am.â
Despite what he said, she could not detect any signs of happiness in his expression.
âIâll fill the tub for your bath.â
As Neil remained silent, Silvia headed to the bathroom to prepare his bath.
While watching the water rise in the tub, her mind began to wander.
Mr. Remus, Your Billionaire Wife Wants a Divorce ï¤Chapter 151 Watch Out, CEO Daddy!
ï¤Chapter 20 The Ugly Lady Strikes Back ï¤Chapter 2514 Once Neilâs legs healed, they would probably get a divorce.
The thought of it filled her heart with a strange sensation.
Perhaps she and Neil had been spending a lot of time together lately, so the idea of their impending separation made her uneasy.
While she was lost in thought, Neilâs voice rang out outside the bathroom.
âSilvia, Grandma fainted, and sheâs been taken to the hospital!â
