Chapter 33
Seeing how happy Dulcie was, Silvia felt curious about the man who had captured the heart of someone as strong–willed as Dulcie.
“I was thinking about taking you out for dinner tonight, but since you have plans with your boyfriend, we’ll do it another time.”
“Sure thing.”
After Dulcie left, Silvia prepared to dive into her documents. Just then, her phone rang.
“Silvia, Neil has signed the divorce agreement. Come over to the mansion now!”
Silvia frowned. Neil had been reluctant about signing the divorce agreement. Why the sudden change of heart today?
“He really signed it?”
After a brief pause, Melanie mockingly said, “What? Do you think I’m lying? There’s no reason for me to lie. It’s not as if Neil’s world would crumble without you!”
“Alright. I’ll be there shortly,” Silvia said. NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.
After they ended the call, Ada, who was sitting next to Melanie, expressed concern. “Mrs. Remus, is this really a good idea? If Neil finds out, he’ll be furious.” 1
Melanie’s gaze was cold. “Don’t worry. Once Neil and Silvia’s divorce is settled, he won’t be able to change the outcome even if he’s furious. I’m his mother, after all. He can’t just sever ties with me.”
Last night, she summoned Jake back and exaggerated the story about Silvia hiring a male escort. She had hoped that Jake would pressure Neil into divorcing Silvia. To her surprise, he admonished her
instead. He said that it was their business and told her not to meddle.
Melanie spent the entire night stewing over the matter. She was determined to keep Silvia away from
Neil.
Half an hour later, Silvia arrived at the Remus Family’s mansion.
When she walked into the living room, Melanie and Ada ceased their conversation, and their smiles disappeared.
Melanie raised her head and said with a hint of disdain, “The divorce agreement is right there on the table. Once you sign it, you’ll no longer be tied to Neil.”
Silvia headed directly for the table. She picked up the divorce agreement and fl*pped to the last page. There, she saw Neil’s signature.
Before she signed it, she asked Melanie for confirmation again, “Is Neil’s signature real and valid?”
Melanie sneered. “Of course it’s real. I don’t need to resort to fake signatures to deceive you.”
“Alright then.”
Melanie felt puzzled when Silvia signed her name without hesitation. She had expected Silvia to be reluctant about it, so why did she seem so relieved? It was as if she had thrown off a heavy burden.
To prevent any unexpected complications, Silvia said, “I’m taking the divorce agreement to the civil court for notarization right now.”
“I’m going too. I need to make sure that you don’t pull any tricks!” Melanie said coldly.
Silvia did not object. “Fine.”
As they walked out of the mansion, Melanie frowned when she saw a Lamborghini parked at the door. “Did Neil buy you this car? Since you’re getting divorced, you can’t take it with you.”
Silvia was taken aback by the question. That was her car. Even if it was a gift from Neil, it was perfectly reasonable for her to keep it after she looked after him for three years.
Meanwhile, Ada looked at her with jealousy and resentment.
“Yeah. You don’t plan on taking advantage of Neil even after the divorce, do you?”
Ada thought. “After I marry Neil, his money’s going to be my money. I’ll never let Silvia take this car!”
Silvia gave them an unconcerned look and said, “I’m sorry to disappoint you, but Neil has nothing to do with the Lamborghini. I’ll be waiting for you at the civil court.”
Then, Silvia promptly left in her car. She left Melanie and Ada standing in the wake of its exhaust fumes.
After she reached the court, she waited for over an hour, but neither Melanie nor Ada showed up.
Impatience flickered in her eyes, and she decided to proceed with the notarization herself.
As she stepped out of the car, a black Maybach stopped in front of her.
Silvia’s eyes widened, and she instinctively clutched the divorce agreement.
At the next second, the Maybach’s rear door opened.
Neil stepped out of the car and approached Silvia with anger in his eyes.
