“That’s for them to worry about in the future. If you have so much free time, why don’t
you worry about MY Corporation? Isn’t one company enough to keep you busy?”
Silvia was furious at how indifferent he sounded.
“Birds of a feather flock together. You’re no better!”
After she vented out her frustration, she got out and slammed the car door shut.
Neil chuckled helplessly. It looked like she had taken her anger out on him.
Isla returned to the film set in the following weeks, and Silvia no longer contacted her.
However, there would occasionally be rumors about her and David. Most involved
reporters taking photos of the two dining together, while the rest were just baseless
speculations.
Silvia thought about calling Isla several times to ask about her current relationship with
David, but she held back

“Silvia, your birthday is next Wednesday! Unfortunately, I’ll be heading into the mountains
for a film shoot tomorrow. But don’t worry. I’ve already prepared a birthday gift for you.
You’ll love it for sure!”
Silvia instinctively glanced at the calendar and saw that her birthday was indeed next
Wednesday.
“Thank you, Isla. You must be swamped with filming, right?”
“Yeah. I’ve been working overtime and getting less than six hours of sleep every day. I’ve
even lost weight.”
Silvia smiled. “Well, it can’t be helped. Keep up the hard work! By the way… have you
gotten together with David?”
Following a brief silence, Isla spoke in a cheerful tone.
“No, we’re just friends. If I was dating him, I’d definitely tell you first.”
Silvia lowered her gaze and did not inquire further. They chatted about a few other things
before they ended the call.
After Silvia put down the phone, she looked at the calendar and fell into deep thought.
She used to celebrate her birthday on the day her adoptive parents picked her up. But
after she returned to the Pond Family, Mindy insisted on changing her birthday back to the
same day as Ada’s. She did not want others to say that they mistreated her.
Although the Pond Family held birthday parties for the two girls every year, Ada would be
the main focus. They would only invite Ada’s friends and people who had business
dealings with the family. The decorations and food at the parties would be tailored to
Ada’s preferences. Silvia could only sit far away and watch in silence as the three of them
celebrated happily.
Whenever someone mentioned her, Idris and Mindy would brush them off by claiming that
she was too shy to socialize.

When she initially returned to the Pond Family, she hoped for love from her biological
parents. After some reflection, that seemed ludicrous.
Idris and Mindy had taught her that not all parents loved their children.
Meanwhile, Mindy and Idris were discussing how to celebrate Ada’s upcoming birthday.
“Should we throw her a birthday party as usual and invite everyone to attend? Now that
Ada’s engaged to Liam, the rich families in Ryoln City won’t reject our invitation. They’ll
have to consider her status.”
Mindy had become the subject of mockery among her friends because Ada had given
others Elia’s fake autographs.
However, Ada’s birthday was next week, and Mindy was determined to show off to her
friends. She felt proud when she thought about how Ada and Liam would appear together.
After a brief silence, Idris nodded and said, “Okay. I’ll leave it to you.”
“Alright.”
“By the way, call Silvia and ask her to come back for her birthday.”
After Idris finished speaking, Mindy stood up and coldly said, “No! I won’t allow her to set
foot in our home again!”
