Chapter 510
“Send it to my grandmother.”
“Okay.”
When Curtis saw Neil's red eyes, he immediately said, “Mr. Remus, please go back and rest. It’s already midnight.” Neil nodded. “Okay. Call me if anything happens.”NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.
By the time Neil returned to Elm Bay, it was 1 am.
The lights in the mansion were still on. When Neil opened the door and went inside, he saw Silvia sleeping on the couch. He subconsciously walked with lighter steps as a result.
He walked up to her, and she woke up just as he was about to carry her back to the bedroom.
When she saw him, her eyes were no longer hazy,
She slowly sat up and asked, “What time is it?”
“It's past 1 a.m. Let me carry you upstairs so that you can sleep.”
“There’s no need for that.”
Silvia looked at him and spoke indifferently, “You’re back so late. Don’t you think you owe me an explanation?”
Neil sat next to her and recounted the day’s events. However, he skipped the part where he accompanied Ada to the hospital. After Silvia heard everything, she looked down and subconsciously clenched her fists on her lap.
“That’s all? Don’t you have something else to tell me?”
Neil frowned and contemplated for a while before he smiled and said, “No. Hasn't this day been frightening enough?” Silvia stopped probing and got up instead. “You must be tired as well after such a crazy day. Get some rest.”
After that, she went upstairs.
Neil looked at her and found her responses and attitude a little uncaring. He could not help but frown.
Did she know that he had accompanied Ada for an abortion?
When he thought of the possibility, he instantly became flustered. Neil immediately gave Curtis a call.
“Did you prevent any news of me accompanying Ada to the hospital from getting out?”
Curtis spoke cautiously after a few seconds, “Mr. Remus, | wanted to tell you about this, but too many things were going on, so | ended up forgetting. The paparazzi caught you visiting the gynecologist with her, and the news has spread across the city...”
Neil's expression instantly turned cold. “Got it.”
After he hung up, he felt regretful, angry, and annoyed for believing that he was slick.
Silvia already knew everything. When she questioned him at the end, she was giving him a chance to explain. However, he thought that he was smart enough to cover it up.
He sat on the couch for a while and decided to go upstairs to give Silvia an explanation.
He walked to her bedroom and plucked up the courage to knock on the door. “Silvia, | need to talk to you. Can you please open the door?” he said softly.
She immediately replied from inside the room, “It’s too late. Let's talk about it tomorrow. When Neil heard her indifference, he instantly felt flustered.
“No way. This is very important. We have to talk right now.”
Silvia only opened the door after a while. “What is it?”
“Well, | accompanied Ada to the hospital today.”
As soon as he said this, he saw her looking at him with a faint smile. “I never knew you were so kind-hearted. People probably think Ada’s pregnant with your child.”
“Silvia, listen to me. You know that Liam captured my mother and grandmother. While he kept them locked in his basement, Ada would always deliver food to them in secret. That was how they survived. | managed to rescue them because Ada told me everything, so | owed her a favor!”
