As Silvia was having drinks with her collaborator, Neil and Ada arrived at the cocktail party.
A hint of disgust flashed in Adaâs eyes when she saw Silvia, but she hid it and smiled instead.
âI didnât expect to see Silvia here. Is she having drinks with her clients?â
Neil followed her gaze and saw Silvia in a red V-neck dress as well as delicate makeup. She was standing confidently among a few men, and her smile was so charming that it captivated all of them.
He noticed several men sneaking glances at her, and it displeased him. It felt as if they were eyeing something precious to him.
Sensing his dissatisfaction, Ada softly said, âI didnât realize she had such a tough job. Sheâs forced to drink with clients...
âNeil, should I get her a job at Perficient? She might not earn as much, but itâll be better than being around men all the time and having them take advantage of her.â
As soon as she said this, Neil glared at her.
âAda, if I hear you speak ill of Silvia again, Iâll break my promise.â
Her face turned pale. She did not expect him to be so protective of Silvia.
Although she was frustrated and angry, she dared not show it. She understood all too well that he could take back everything he had given her at any time.
âNeil, I know Iâm wrong, but itâs for her sake.â
âShe doesnât need your help!â
He then walked toward Silvia.
Ada wanted to call out to him but she was too afraid to do so. She just felt upset.
When she turned around to leave, she caught sight of Ryan standing nearby and looking at Silvia.
A spark of surprise lit up her eyes, and she smiled.
Did Ryan like Silvia?
If that was the case, things just got interesting.
Meanwhile, Silvia was talking to her collaborator when she suddenly felt a cold gaze on her.
She turned her head slightly and frowned when she noticed Neil approaching her.
However, the collaborator was honored to see Neil.
âMr. Remus.â
Neil stood beside Silvia with a smile and said, âIâd like to have a few words with Miss Pond.â
âSure, Mr. Remus. Miss Pond, letâs continue our discussion at MY Corporation tomorrow.â
Silvia smiled and nodded. âCertainly.â
Once the collaborator left, Silviaâs expression instantly became unpleasant. She turned to leave.
However, Neil grabbed her wrist after she took a couple of steps.
âMiss Pond, you were all smiles with the collaborator earlier. Why are you so cold toward me?â
Silvia shook off his hand and responded with a stony face, âMr. Remus, if I remember correctly, thereâs no collaboration between MY Corporation and Remus Corporation. As such, thereâs no need for us to talk.â
âHow can that be? Remus Corporation is considering a collaboration with MY Corporation.â
She frowned and replied coldly, âYou should choose Perficient instead. MY Corporation isnât capable of collaborating with Remus Corporation.â
âI believe youâre capable enough for this collaboration.â
Silvia ran out of patience and said, âSorry, but Iâm not interested.â
Neil cocked an eyebrow in surprise. âFine, letâs set business aside and talk about something else.â
However, she glared at him. âDo you have nothing better to do?â
âNothing is more important than talking to you.â
âSpare me.â

A while later, someone stood before her.
Silvia thought it was Neil, so she looked up with impatience. âCan you please stop bothering me?!â
When she realized that it was Ryan, she felt embarrassed.
âIâm sorry, Mr. Anderson. I didnât know it was you.â
âSilvia, are you MY Corporationâs president?â
