Chapter 384: Chapter 384

Silvia remained quiet for a while before she said, “I’m not too sure, but the soup tastes really weird.”

Neil frowned and said, “You took the soup away so that Grandma wouldn’t have to drink it?”

She nodded. “Yes, but I can’t confirm if it’s fine or not.”

However, she had secretly taken some of the chicken soup. She planned to run a test on it to check for abnormalities.

“If you find it weird, just pour it away.”

“How should I explain it to Madam Remus?”

“I have an idea.”

After a few minutes, Abalene heard a loud smash in the kitchen. She was startled, and she immediately asked the servant to check it out.

Just then, Neil dragged Silvia out of the kitchen. She had a guilty look on her face.

“I’m sorry, Madam Remus. I accidentally dropped the bowl of chicken soup because it was too hot.”

There was a hint of disappointment in Abalene’s eyes when she heard this. She had been craving chicken soup ever since her hospitalization.

Unfortunately, Liam had brought her rib soup every single day.

“I see... It’s alright. I’ll get the kitchen staff to prepare another pot.”

Silvia frowned. She was thinking of other ways to make Abalene give up on the idea when Neil said, “Grandma, let’s forget about chicken soup for tonight. It takes around two hours to prepare. Having chicken soup so late at night is going to be bad for our digestion.”

Abalene looked at him with suspicion. “Really?”

Silvia immediately agreed. “Yes, Madam Remus. Since it’s pretty oily, your body will have to work overtime to digest it at night.”

Abalene trusted her unconditionally, so she nodded and said, “Alright then.”

After dinner, Silvia and Neil left.

However, Abalene could not fall asleep because she was still thinking about the chicken soup. In the end, she woke up and asked the servant to cook her some. She drank it until she was satisfied and went to bed.

Mr. Remus, Your Billionaire Wife Wants a Divorce Back home, Silvia passed the chicken soup sample to Neil and asked him to get it tested. It was then sent to an authorized lab in Imperial City.

It was late at night, but Ada had just finished her work at Perficient. She realized that it had been a while since she last went home, so she returned to Pond Mansion.

When she walked into the mansion, she was somewhat surprised to find Mindy sitting on the couch in a daze.

“Mom, it’s so late. Why aren’t you asleep yet?”

Mindy was startled by Ada’s voice, but she soon gave her a disgruntled look.

“Ada, where have you been these past few days? I called you multiple times, but you didn’t pick up at all.”

Ada frowned. “Mom, haven’t you watched the news recently?”

She thought that Mindy had called her to ask about the plagiarism incident. That’s why she did not answer any of her calls.

Confusion flashed across Mindy’s eyes. “What news?”

“Never mind. I’ve been exhausted because of work lately. I’ll head up and get some rest. I’ll talk to you tomorrow.”

After Ada went upstairs, Mindy asked the servant if there was something going on.

The servant’s expression changed, as though she was trying to hold back from speaking.

“Tell me!” Mindy demanded.

After some hesitation, the servant told her about Perficient’s unsuccessful plagiarism lawsuit against MY.

Mindy’s expression immediately darkened. No wonder the servants had been acting cautious recently.

A week ago, Idris had gone on an overseas business trip with Sophia.

As such, Mindy had not been sleeping and eating well. She never mingled with the other socialites either. They had to be laughing at her behind her back because of the incident involving Perficient.
