Chapter 285
Silvia bumped into Dulcie in front of the elevator. Dulcie smiled when she saw her.
“Women in love really do look different. Your complexion looks a lot better, as though it’s
been nourished with love.”
Silvia blushed and glared at her.
“What on earth are you talking about?”
Dulcie waggled her eyebrows in response. “It’s so rare to see you blush, but I’m referring
to you getting back together with Neil. Is your mind in the gutter?”
Silvia was at a loss of words.
Dulcie could not stop poking fun at Silvia when she fell silent.
“What are you thinking about that’s making you blush like that?”
“Is your workload too light? Is that why you’re talking so much?”
Dulcie immediately waved her hand and said, “I’ll give me more!”
“By the way, is Henry still pursuing you?”
ston. I still have a lot of work to do! Don’t
Dulcie shook her head. “I’ve rejected him, and he no longer bothers me. I think he’s
probably given up. Besides, I’m seeing somebody else.”
There was a hint of surprise in Silvia’s eyes. “Who?”
“I’m going to keep it a secret for now. If it works out, I’ll introduce him to you.”
She did not pry any further.
After they reached the ground floor, they saw Neil’s car parked by the road. Dulcie bade
Silvia goodbye and left.
Silvia then walked toward the car. When she opened the door, she saw a bouquet of
sunflowers on the seat. They were her favorite flowers.
She was taken aback as she did not expect to receive flowers from Neil.
“Thank you, but how did you know that sunflowers were my favorite?”
Neil appeared calm. “Back in Remus Mansion, you used to fill up the vases at the dining
table and living room with sunflowers.”
Silvia smiled. She thought that he would not notice it and assumed that he never paid
attention to such details.
Half an hour later, the black Maybach drove into Harmony Yard.
A
gray Rolls–Royce was already in the parking lot. The driver stopped the car, and Silvia, as
well as Neil, got out.
When they entered the living room, they saw Liam and Abalene chatting on the couch.
Liam’s smile faded a little when he spotted them. He stood up and said to Abalene, “Neil
and
Silvia are here. I’ll take a walk in the garden and let them chat with you.‘
Abalene smiled and nodded. “Alright, go ahead.”
Silvia wasn’t sure if she was being too sensitive, but it felt like Liam was giving her a
meaningful look.
After Liam left, Neil led Silvia to the couch, and they sat across from Abalene.
Abalene’s crinkled eyes indicated her joy when she saw them holding hands. “Is it true
that you’re back together?”
Neil cocked his eyebrows in amusement. “Do you think we’re faking it?”
Abalene glared at him. “I didn’t ask you. Silvia’s giving you a second chance because
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmshe’s kind. If you upset her again, I’ll disown you!”
Neil was speechless.
Silvia smiled as she looked at Abalene
and said, “He’s really nice to me now.”
“If he doesn’t treat you well, I won’t agree to your relationship even if you want to get
back with him.‘
Neil’s face fell. “Am I really your grandson?”
“You are if you treat Silvia well. I’ll disown you the moment you hurt her.”
When Silvia saw how offended Neil was, she poked him in the cheek and said, “Mr. Remus,
your grandmother is just teasing you!”
“I’m not joking.”
Even though she realized how serious Abalene was, Silvia could not help but Remus,
please don’t make fun of him anymore.”

“Madam
Neil was quite cold and aloof. He was probably not used to such “jokes.”
Abalene finally changed the subject. “Oh right, how is Liam’s performance at Remus
Corporation?”
