Chapter 294
Abalene asked the driver to pick Silvia up early in the morning. After breakfast, she held Silvia’s hand.
“Don’t leave my side today. I haven’t been to many parties over the last few years, so I don’t know many of the socialites. Introduce them to me later.”
Silvia nodded. “Okay.”
The banquet was at night, but the servants were already busy. Some were cleaning Harmony Yard, while others were preparing food.
Silvia had nothing to do, so she took a book from the study and headed to the pavilion in the courtyard.
She had only begun reading when a shadow suddenly appeared before her.
She raised her head and saw that it was Liam. It took her by surprise.
“Liam, when did you get here?”
Liam smiled naturally and sat down across from her. “I’ve been here for a while. Grandma mentioned that you were reading in the courtyard, so I came here to see you.‘
“Is there something you want to tell me?”
Liam nodded and said, “I know why Grandma is organizing this banquet, but I have no interest in being in a relationship right now. Hence, I’d like to ask you for a favor, Miss Pond.”
Silvia pursed her lips. “What favor?”
“I was hoping that you could talk to Grandma. You’re her favorite person, and she’ll definitely. listen to what you say.
She frowned and finally replied after a few seconds, “I’m afraid that I can’t help you with this.”
Liam chuckled and slowly said, “Miss Pond, I’m sure you know more than me how it feels like. to be with someone you don’t love. I don’t want to string anyone along or put an act in front of Grandma.”
Without realizing, Silvia held the book so tightly that her fingers turned pale.
Just as she was about to speak, she heard a cold voice outside the pavilion.
“If you’re not a fan of Grandma’s arrangement, you should tell her yourself. Why are you troubling my wife?”
The two of them turned around at the same time and saw Neil walking into the pavilion in dissatisfaction.
Neil only glared at Liam after he sat down next to Silvia.
“Silvia’s really shy and she doesn’t enjoy talking to strangers. If you have nothing else to say,
you can leave.”
Liam chuckled and cast a meaningful glance at her. He smiled and said, “I crossed the line,
Silvia. I hope you won’t mind me.”
Silvia appeared indifferent. “I won’t.”
After Liam left, Neil gave her a cold look
“Just ignore him if he talks to you again.”
Silvia subconsciously frowned. That was extremely rude.
“Mr. Remus, I haven’t forgiven you. Please stay away from me.”
However, he grabbed her by the waist immediately after.
“I just got you out of trouble. Doesn’t that make up for my mistake?”
They were standing so close that Silvia could even feel the warmth of his body through his clothes.
She instantly pushed him away and sat somewhere that was the farthest from him. “Mr. Remus, don’t forget that you’re a big reason why Liam teased me,” she said with a faint smile.
Liam had left Ryoln City for a few years, but even he knew that Neil did not love her. She could only imagine what others in Ryoln City thought of her.
Neil was speechless.
Noting his silence, she got up and said, “You can’t defend yourself, can you? You’ll have to redeem yourself if you want my forgiveness.”
After that, she turned around to leave.
She only managed to take two steps before Neil hugged her from behind.
He rested his chin on her shoulder, and she could feel his warm breath in her ear, which tickled her a little. The feeling seemed to travel from her ear to her heart, and she froze as a
result.
“What do I have to do for you to forgive me?”
Neil whispered in her ear in a seductive voice. She pushed him away after a few seconds and took several steps back
“Don’t ask me, Mr. Remus. Come up with a way to make me feel better.”
His gaze intensified as he watched Silvia walk away, but he did not go after her.
When she returned to the living room, Abalene spotted her and immediately said, “Come here, Silvia.”
She quickly approached Abalene and sat down. “What’s wrong, Madam Remus?” Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.
