âJust ignore it.â
âWhat if itâs an emergency!â
Silvia grabbed the cell phone from the nightstand and handed it to him. Her voice was husky from their activities that evening.
âA couple of minutes wonât matter.â
Neil took the cell phone, but his eyes were dark with desire.
âIâll let you know later if I need those couple of minutes or not.â
He got out of bed and answered it. After he heard what the caller said, his face fell.
He turned to Silvia once he hung up. âSilvia, something urgent has come up at the company, so Iâm going to take care of it. Wait for me to get back!â
Silvia slowly sat up. She hugged the covers as she looked at him. âOkay.â
Seeing her in such a state, Neil could not help but grab the back of her head and kiss her deeply. Then, he put on his clothes and left.
Neil was gone all night. He only returned after Silvia got up and went downstairs the next morning. His under eyes were dark, and it looked like he had not slept at all.
âWas it a serious issue?â she asked.
Neil shook his head. âItâs fine. Iâve taken care of it.â
âWell, thatâs good. You were up all night, werenât you? Get some rest.â
âOkay. Call me if anything happens.â
âOkay.â
It was Sunday, so the housekeeper was not coming over to cook.
After Neil returned to the bedroom. Silvia pondered for a while. In the end, she decided to make a simple broth and a few sides for lunch.
He did not sleep all night, so some broth at noon would be most appropriate.
Silvia then proceeded to prepare the broth. Just as she was about to call him for lunch, he hurried downstairs.
âI have to go to the office, so donât wait for me for lunch.â
Before she could respond, Neil walked away.
Silvia looked down at the broth in the pot and instantly lost her appetite.
After Neil left Royal Vista, he drove directly to Remus Corporation.
Curtis was already waiting for him in the office. The second he saw Neil; he handed over the file in his hand.
âMr. Remus, based on what weâve found, itâs likely that Cold Nightâs men are related to the Stark Family in Imperial City.â
Neil took the document, and his expression became absolutely cold after he read it.
âKeep investigating. Donât do anything rash.â
The Stark Family was one of the eight great families in Imperial City. It was the strongest among the eight, and it was not much different from the Crawson Family, the lowest ranked of the four prestigious families.
Furthermore, the Stark Family had long historical roots in Imperial City. Hence, it was not that easy to take action against them.
Since they dared to covet the Remus Familyâs secret key, they had to be prepared for retaliation.
After he gave his orders, Neil added, âBy the way, havenât the champagne roses that I asked you to airlift arrived yet?â
Now that things in Remus Corporation had calmed down, he was ready to find a time to propose to Silvia.
Curtis quickly said, âIt rained heavily over in Bulgaria not long ago, so many of the champagne-colored roses ended up damaged. It will take a few days before they can ship new ones over.â
Neil nodded. âOkay. Get them here as soon as possible. How about the customized diamond ring that we ordered?â
âItâs also arriving in a few days. Iâll leave it on your desk when the time comes.â
âOkay. Get back to work.â
After Curtis left, Neil picked up the document again. His face was gloomy.

âSil, what are you doing? Iâd like to see that patientâs medical report. Do you have time to visit the hospital with me?â
