Silvia frowned. “Did Ada tell you that?”
Mindy sneered. “It doesn’t matter who told me. If you’re going to do such a shameful thing, why be afraid of others finding out?”
“Ms. Woods, let me remind you that we’ve cut ties. Even if I’ve done something embarrassing, it has nothing to do with you.”
“How dare you!”
Mindy’s face turned red with anger. Even though she had publicly disowned her, whenever Silvia did anything embarrassing, others would still talk about the Pond Family behind their backs.
“Quit that job immediately! I’m warning you. If I find out that you’re doing part–time jobs again, I won’t let you off the hook!”
Silvia mockingly replied, “Do whatever you want.”
She then hung up, which angered Mindy further.
Mindy was so furious that she almost threw her phone on the floor.
Ada quickly comforted her. “Mom, don’t be angry. I’m sure Silvia will see things your way in the future.”
“I don’t need her understanding! I’ll attend that competition in person tomorrow. If she refuses to comply, I’ll make her regret it!” Mindy said coldly.
“Mom, wouldn’t it be better to handle this privately? There are many people at the venue. We shouldn’t embarrass her in public.”
Mindy took a deep breath and slowly said, “Ada, don’t worry about this. Just focus on preparing for the competition. Alright, let’s continue eating.”
Meanwhile, Silvia changed her clothes and went downstairs to meet Isla. They left for the restaurant together.
Isla had also reserved a room at Heavenly Joy Restaurant. Upon arriving at the room, they discovered that David was already there.
After they exchanged pleasantries, Isla attempted to place an order. However, David smiled. and said, “Miss Connolly, hold on for a moment. A friend of mine is joining us. Is that okay with you?”
Isla wanted to roll her eyes. She wondered why he bothered to ask when he had already made arrangements.
Nevertheless, she smiled and replied, “I don’t mind.”
Soon, David’s friend arrived. NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.
When Neil entered the room, Isla’s expression changed.
David did this on purpose!
He knew that she would invite Silvia, so he asked Neil to join them!
With this realization, her expression turned cold.
“Mr. Cooper, what’s the meaning of this?”
David responded with a smile, “Do you have any issues with my friend, Miss Connolly?”
Isla sneered. “You know that Silvia has a complicated history with Mr. Remus, yet you deliberately invited him. What’s your intention?”
David was about to speak when Neil’s steely voice cut through the tension.
“It looks like Miss Connolly doesn’t welcome me. In that case, I won’t join you for dinner.”
Isla wore a stern expression. Although she said nothing back, her anger was visible.
David stood up and said, “I’m leaving too, Miss Connolly. Let’s just consider this a meal.”
“Hold on.”
Silvia tugged at Isla’s sleeve and whispered, “Isla, it’s okay. You don’t have to be so sensitive.”
Isla turned to her with a frown and said, “Silvia, you don’t have to compromise for my sake.”
Silvia chuckled. “I’m not compromising. I don’t mind whoever joins us.”
Seeing that she was being sincere, Isla sighed in relief. “Alright.”
Since Silvia did not mind it, David smiled and said, “Thank you, Miss Pond.‘
Isla rolled her eyes at him and passed him the menu. “Please order, Mr. Cooper.
