Rita shook her head and angrily said, âWe just bumped into someone we donât like.â
There was a hint of surprise in Silviaâs eyes. Rita was known for her good temper. Ever since she joined MY Corporation, Silvia had never seen her lash out at anyone.
âWho is it that you dislike so much?â
Rita grimaced. âAda, of course.â
In the past, she only looked down on Ada for passing a fake signature off as Eliaâs autograph. However, Ada stole her designs and sold them abroad before accusing her of plagiarism. Rita lost all respect for her and even felt somewhat disgusted with her.
Recalling what she had to go through, Rita was filled with rage.
If her innocence had not been proven, who knew what that anonymous person would have done to her apart from sending her dead animals. Even though she had made a police report, they never caught the person.
Whenever she thought about it, she would tremble in fear.
Silvia was not surprised. âItâs normal to bump into her. Letâs not forget that sheâs the winner of the design competition,â she slowly said.
Rita sneered. âIt doesnât matter that her designs are good. Sheâs not going to get far with that awful personality.â
âHer career has nothing to do with us. Letâs just focus on the exhibition. The designs are great, and I believe youâll be able to learn something.â
Rita hesitated for a while before she said, âMs. Pond, how did our designs get leaked? Are they still trying to figure it out?â
Silvia nodded. âYes. Are you sure you didnât show anyone your designs?â
âYes, Iâm very sure. I always bring my laptop with me. Itâs impossible...â
Suddenly, Rita froze.
âWhatâs wrong?â
She bit her lower lip and shook her head. âNothing. I just feel a little uncomfortable. I need to visit the washroom.â
âAlright.â
Silvia watched as Rita left in haste. Something seemed off with her response.
âWhatâs on your mind?â
Silvia suddenly heard a manâs voice. She turned around and saw Neil standing nearby.
He was staring intently at her with his dark eyes. It was as if she was the only person he could see.
Her heart skipped a beat. She immediately lowered her head and said, âNothing. Donât you need to talk to your business partners?â
When she walked in earlier, she spotted many famous business leaders of Ryoln City. It appeared that the organizer had set this exhibition up to attract both designers and investors.
He noticed that Silvia seemed uncomfortable with him around, as though she wanted him to leave immediately. Hence, he was not pleased.
âAre you that afraid to be seen with me?â
Silvia realized that he was upset, so she said, âI just donât want to get in the way of your work.â
âReally?â
âOf course.â
Neil held her hand and spoke in a deep voice, âThis is the punishment for lying.â
She tried to free her hand but failed, so she got a little angry.
âDonât forget what you promised me!â
He merely chuckled. âI did promise you, but you lied to me. So, you should receive some punishment. Otherwise, youâll do it again.â
âChange the punishment,â Silvia said through gritted teeth.
âKiss me.â
âDonât try your luck!â
Neil could hear the anger in her voice, and he lowered his gaze to look at her. âHow about I kiss you instead?â
Silvia was speechless.
