Chapter 134
“Mom, you don’t have to do anything. You already publicly cut ties with her at that press
conference. She’s probably still upset. I’ll handle this on my own.”
Mindy’s anger suddenly intensified. “I don’t care how she feels! I won’t think of her as my
daughter anymore!”
Neil and Silvia returned to the mansion at 9 p.m.
Silvia removed the necklace and handed it back to him. “Thank you.”
He seemed displeased and impassively said, “Since you’ve worn it, I can’t give it to
anyone else. You can keep it.”
He had a point, so Silvia responded, “How much is it? I’ll buy it from you.”
“Do you have to draw such a clear line between us?”
Sensing Neil’s annoyance,
annoyance, she bit her l*p.
she bit her l*p. “Mr. Remus, if I don’t draw a clear line, things could get more complicated
between us.”
After all, they would soon go their separate ways.

“I’m quite tired, so I’ll head to my room. You should get some rest too, Mr. Remus,” she
said indifferently.
Once she was back in her room, Silvia looked up the price of the necklace. Since Neil had
acquired it through an auction, she quickly discovered the amount he had spent.
The moment she saw the figures, she regretted ever suggesting to buy it.
One billion dollars!
It was such an exorbitant price for a piece of jewelry!
The thought of the money kept her up all night, and she could not stop wondering how she
would pay such a massive amount.
If she had known how much Neil had spent on the necklace, she would never have worn it!
The next morning, Silvia left her bedroom with dark circles under her eyes.
She and Neil finished breakfast in silence before they headed out for work.
Upon arriving at her company entrance, she saw a lot of flowers on the reception desk.
People were talking about it too.
“Wow, who’s the lucky recipient of these flowers? They must have cost a fortune. I’m so
jealous!”
“There are so many flowers. Where’s she going to put them? Looks like someone’s
showing off big time.”
“Well, it’s their money. If you’ve got the cash, you can do it too.”
Silvia glanced at the flowers. As she headed to the elevator, she noticed Dulcie rushing
toward the reception desk.
“Get rid of them all. If anyone ever sends me flowers again, just throw them away!”
Silvia was surprised. Did one of Dulcie’s admirers send these flowers?
After Dulcie issued her orders, she spotted Silvia and quickly walked up to her.
“Silvia, I’m coming with you.”
Dulcie pulled her into the elevator for the company’s higher–ups. Once the elevator doors
closed, Silvia teased, “Which of your admirers sent them? He’s really making a scene.”
However, Dulcie angrily said, “Who else could it be but Henry? He got drunk last night and
called me. He told me how wrong he had been and that he would make things right. I
thought he was just spouting nonsense. I didn’t expect him to send a truckload of flowers

Silvia frowned. “Is he trying to get back with you?”
“Who knows what’s going on in his mind? But there’s no way I’ll ever get back with him. I
can’t stand sc*mbags!”
Seeing how determined she was, Silvia smiled. “I guess Snow hurt his feelings.”
Dulcie sneered. “I don’t want to get involved in their messy affairs. I’m sure he’ll cool
down and get back to normal after some time.”
While they chatted, the elevator reached the top floor, and its doors opened. They parted
ways and headed to their respective offices.
Once she sat at her desk, Silvia received a call from Isla.
“Miss Pond, I’ve been in Ryoln City for a week. Why haven’t you called me?”
“Well, you’re so busy. I wouldn’t dare disturb you.”
e your sugar
Isla snorted. “Just ask me out. I’ll find the time no matter how busy I am. I’m waiting to be
your sugar baby!”
Silvia was speechless.
Isla, the three–time winner of the Best Actress Award, was known for being aloof. If the
public knew how she acted in private, her reputation would be severely tarnished.
