Mr. Remus Your Billionaire Wife Wants a Divorce

Chapter 15

Justus immediately shook his head. “No… I was just joking. Miss Pond, you’re a merciful person. Please don’t hold this against me…” He even started to slap himself in the face as he spoke. Silvia stared at him emotionlessly. When Justus’s face eventually turned red from the slaps, she moved her leg away and left without a care. Justus’s eyes had initially been filled with fear. But now, his gaze was ruthless as he stared at Silvia’s back. He would make her pay for today! He would not spare her! Seeing that Silvia had left, Neil turned around and went upstairs. He appeared indifferent, but he was secretly suspicious of Silvia. Perhaps he should ask Curtis to dig deeper into her background. He knew that Silvia was the daughter that the Pond Family had lost for sixteen years. She was also Ada’s twin sister. During their three-year marriage, she had done her best to take care of him. She was no different from an ordinary woman in that respect. But she really surprised him today! David was equally shocked. He looked at Neil and said, “Neil, Silvia just hit him. Justus is a vindictive person, so he’ll definitely cause her trouble. Aren’t you planning to get involved?” Neil did not seem to care. “She won’t ask me for help. Why should I poke my nose in her business?” “She’s your wife.” His expression seemed to grow colder when he heard this. “Perhaps she won’t be after some time,” he said. David had a look of surprise. “Are you planning to divorce her and get together with Ada again?” Neil did not answer, so David took his silence as an admission. “You’ve liked Ada from the start, so a divorce will be good for you and Silvia.” “Silvia’s the one who asked for the divorce.” David was truly taken aback this time. After all, throughout their three years of marriage, all of them had seen how much Silvia liked Neil. She was incredibly fond of him. Why would she ask for a divorce? “Are you sure? Since she’s asking for a divorce, why are you still hesitating? Is it because she’s asking for too much alimony?” David’s words annoyed Neil even further. “What does it matter to you? Have you settled your affair with that celebrity?” He glared at David. David fell silent. The two of them then walked into a private room. Henry and Ryan were waiting there. When Henry saw Neil’s gloomy face, he asked, “Neil, why are you upset?” Neil did not reply. “Someone’s unhappy because his wife wants a divorce. Don’t ask about it,” David teased from the back. Henry was taken aback for a while before he said, “Let’s enjoy the meal. Forget about the things that make us unhappy.” They did not feel optimistic about Neil and Silvia’snovelbin

marriage, especially now that Ada was back. A crisis was approaching their marriage. Ryan looked down in silence. Nob*dy noticed that he subconsciously tightened his grip on his glass. After dinner, Henry and David suggested that they go for a drink at Imperial Palace, a luxurious bar. “You guys go ahead. I still have things to do tonight.” Once Neil left, Ryan said that he had to go home as well. Henry looked at David. “They all have things to do. Shall we just go to any bar for a drink?” David smiled and shook his head. “I have a date with my girlfriend. You’re on your own here.” Henry was speechless. After a few seconds, he looked at David and said, “You’re never without a girlfriend. She’s not a celebrity this time, is she?” “Nope. I’ll bring her over and introduce you next time.” “Wow. Are you serious this time?” “I’m always serious when it comes to relationships.” Henry rolled his eyes at David. “Fine. Go ahead. I’ll head home too. How boring!” … It was already 9:00 p.m. when Neil returned to the mansion. The moment he walked in, he saw Silvia leaving with a bag. She had changed into some sportswear and tied her hair in a ponytail. She looked capable and pretty. “It’s so late. Where are you going?” Silvia did not expect to see him back home at this time. She was startled for a moment, but she spoke indifferently, “I have something to do. I won’t be around for a few days.” Neil instantly grabbed her arm as he stared at her fiercely. “Silvia Pond, don’t forget that you’re still married! It’s late. You’re not allowed to go out no matter what!” Silvia swung his hand away impatiently. “What does that have to do with you? Didn’t you used to always go away for a long time? I agreed to come back to the mansion, but that doesn’t mean you can interfere with my personal life!” She lowered her head and glanced at her watch. It was almost time to meet up with Condor. “If you don’t tell me why you’re going out, I won’t let you step out of this mansion today!” Silvia raised her head and stared at him as she sternly said, “Get lost.” Neil did not speak. He just looked into her eyes with his deep and cold gaze. He had witnessed Silvia’s martial arts skills today. Although she was talented, his skills were not inferior to hers. If she fought him, he could question her about when she learned martial arts. Silvia looked at him expressionlessly. Just as he was about to speak, he heard a light sound of “ting”. He frowned in confusion. All of a sudden, Silvia started counting down. “Three! “Two! “One!” The moment Silvia uttered the last number, Neil became unconscious. She dragged him to the couch and left without turning back. When Neil woke up, it was already the next morning. Neil massaged his forehead and

suddenly recalled what had happened. He opened his sharp eyes and glanced around. He subconsciously scowled when he failed to find Silvia. He called Curtis immediately. “Find out where Silvia is right now!” Meanwhile, a team of people was moving deeper into the rainforest. Everyone walked with haste. There were about a dozen of them. They were also dressed in camouflage uniforms. Everyone had injuries of varying degrees, but no one was out of commission. This meant that it was a well-trained team. The leader brought everyone to a riverside before he told those at the back, “We’ll be safe after we cross the river.” After he spoke, they suddenly heard a gunshot from afar. Right then, a bullet shot right through the leader’s forehead. Bang! As their leader dropped to the ground, they kept hearing gunshots around them. In the blink of an eye, only about five out of the dozen people were left. “Jump into the river now!” With the sounds of “splash”, the river became cloudy after that. Silvia stood still as she stared at the river’s surface. She was so focused that she looked like a statue. At this time, she heard Condor’s low and deep voice in her earphones. “Iris, our main mission is to kill Scorpion. The rest are just lackeys. They ‘re not important. Get ready to pull back.” Silvia frowned. She had always been a stickler for getting rid of everyone. However, Condor was the commander in this mission. Since he ordered her to pull back, she could only agree. She put away her gun. As she turned to leave, she suddenly heard Condor’s anxious voice from her earphones. “Watch out!” Silvia sensed danger too and promptly moved to the side. A bullet flew past her cheek and instantly left a scar. She turned around and fired a shot in the direction where the bullet had come from. She was so fast that her enemy fell to the ground with his eyes wide open. He died before he could fire the second shot. Condor whistled and complimented her through her earphones. “You’re definitely Iris! You’re as speedy as always!” Silvia sounded indifferent. “I still have things to do. Just transfer the commission to my account.” After she spoke, she cut off communication. … Neil had instructed his staff to track Silvia for three days, but they had failed to pinpoint her location. For three days, his mood kept getting worse and worse. Everyone in the company was too afraid to approach him. “Mr. Remus, this is what I’ve found on Miss Pond…” Neil took the document and fl*pped it open. The information was no different from what he could find. He threw the document on the desk in dissatisfaction. “Is this all you have after three days?”
