“Yeah, but isn’t she a talentless hack? How did she suddenly become the president of MY Corporation?”
Idris remained silent for a while before he slowly said, “I’m not quite sure, but Neil probably d, “I’m not quite sure, but Neil probably gave her the company. Didn’t Remus Corporation attempt to acquire MY Corporation some time ago?” Content © NôvelDrama.Org.
“Neil gave Perficient to Ada before he handed MY Corporation to Silvia? Why would he do that? Does he like both of them?”
If Neil really wanted both his daughters, Idris would not mind giving him their hands.
In his opinion, he could always trade his daughters for benefits. His true heir was the son he had been keeping a secret.
“I’m not sure. I’ll ask Mr. Remus about this when I have the chance.”
After Idris hung up, he hesitated for a while and gave Silvia a call.
Silvia was in the middle of a meeting, and her phone screen was being projected. When Idris called her, everyone in the room saw it.
Joe looked at her and asked, “Miss Pond, would you like to answer it?”
“Just hang up. Resume the meeting.”
“Okay.”
Joe helped her reject the call.
Idris assumed that she was still angry with him. As such, he decided to see her at MY Corporation and grab the opportunity to look around.
Pond Corporation and MY Corporation had never collaborated, but Pond Corporation had finally broken into the fashion industry as well. If MY Corporation and Perficient could provide some help, Pond Corporation would be able to gain a strong footing in the industry.
As Idris thought about it, he could even imagine the expansion of his company. His eyes crinkled with delight.
When Silvia stepped out of the meeting room, another secretary, Celeste Jenkins, approached her and said, “Miss Pond, your father is here. I asked him to wait for you in the lounge.”
Silvia frowned in response. “If he comes again, just tell him that I’m not around.”
Seeing how unhappy Silvia was, Celeste realized that she had made a mistake. She lowered her head and said, “Okay, I understand.”
Silvia passed some documents to Joe and quickly walked toward the lounge.
“What brings you here, Mr. Pond?”
Idris frowned when he sensed that she was being distant. He held back his anger and said, Silvia, it’s been a long time since you came home. Join us for dinner tonight. Your mother and Ada miss you very much.”
Silvia looked at him in disbelief. She wondered how he could say such things with a straight face.
Would Mindy and Ada ever miss her?
They would prefer that she never go back.
“Mr. Pond, i believe that we’re not related anymore. I hope this will be your first and last time visiting me at MY Corporation.”
She then turned around to leave. She did not even care to ask Idris about the purpose of his visit.
“Hold on, Silvia! I know that we’ve done you wrong, but we’re still your family.”
She looked at him with a sneer and firmly said, “Mr. Pond, you’re here because you found out that I’m the president of MY Corporation. You’re thinking about benefiting from me, aren’t you?”
Idris froze before he gritted his teeth and said, “How could you think of me like that? No matter what, you’re my daughter. Would I harm you?”
“Twenty–three years ago, you believed the tarot reader and abandoned me. Not long ago, you thought that I was of no use, so you chose to take the Walls Family’s side. I can’t even name the number of times you’ve been biased toward Ada.”
Her gaze did not change even though she saw how displeased Idris was.
“Whatever it is you’re trying to get from me, it’s not going to happen. Don’t come to me ever again.”
With that, she left.
Idris took a deep breath and felt furious, but he did not know how to vent his anger.
When Silvia returned to her office, she saw Dulcie waiting for her on the couch. Silvia sat down and said, “I suppose you have business with me.”
“Yes.”
Dulcie held out a document for Silvia to sign. She smiled and said, “The Design Department hired a new designer today. I bet you can’t guess who it is!”
