When Mindy thought about it, her face turned even paler.
The next morning, Ada went downstairs and saw Mindy sitting in the same position. She could not helpbut frown.
“Mom, were you awake the whole night?”
Mindy looked at her and spoke through gritted teeth, “Do you think I’ll be able to sleep after you’vedone such an embarrassing thing?”
Ada’s face turned white, and she stared at Mindy in disbelief.
“Mom, even you think that I plagiarized Silvia’s work?”
“What else could it be? The court has decided!”
Ada’s eyes immediately turned red, and she spoke pitifully, “Silvia bribed someone in the courthouse.Otherwise, Perficient wouldn’t have lost. Besides, Neil likes her now, and he stands by herunconditionally. If I go against her, he’ll take Perficient back…‘
Mindy was suspicious. “Is Silvia capable of doing that?”
“She’s not, but Neil is.”

Mindy contemplated in silence, but she still found it hard to believe.
“You’ve been with Neil before. Would he really go against you because of Silvia?”
Ada forced a few tears and sobbed. “I don’t know what she’s told him, but Neil’s been very cold towardme. I can’t even see him. He’s changed his mind, and I’ve just been in denial.”
Mindy was reminded of Idris, and she was overcome with anger.

Ada was momentarily stunned. Should Mindy not side with her and criticize Silvia?
“Mom, now that I’m engaged to Liam, nothing is going to happen between me and Neil. I just want tomanage Perficient well. I don’t want to fight with Silvia anymore.”
Mindy lowered her gaze. After a few seconds, she slowly said, “That’s good. Now that Neil likes her, it’snot wise to go against her. We’ll have a chance to exact our revenge once Neil is sick of her.”
Ada was extremely shocked by her response. Mindy hated Silvia. Whenever her name came up, Mindywould cuss and insult her. Why was she so calm this time?
“Mom, did… something happen to you recently? I know you’ve been trying to reach me the past fewdays. I’ve just been so busy that I haven’t been able to return

Mindy sighed. “It’s nothing. You should take care of work. I’ll deal with this myself.”
Ada immediately knelt down before her and held her hand. “What’s going on? If you don’t tell me, I’ll beeven more worried.”
Mindy lowered her head and saw Ada’s concerning gaze. She finally found an outlet for her
sadness and pain. At that moment, she sobbed. “Your dad’s having an affair…”

On Monday morning, Silvia saw Rita getting out of a car just as she reached MY Corporation’s
entrance.
There was a hint of surprise in her eyes. “Rita, aren’t you on a vacation?”
Rita was no longer as confused and dispirited as she was when the incident first happened. Shewalked over with a smile on her face. “I immediately came back when I learned that Perficient lost thelawsuit. Ms. Pond, thank you for finding the evidence and proving my innocence.”
Silvia smiled gently. “It’s my responsibility. You’re an employee of MY Corporation. I’m protecting thecompany’s interest by protecting your interest.”
Rita nodded. “My father wants to treat you to a meal as thanks. When are you free?”
“He doesn’t have to do that. Please let Mr. Williams know that I should be the one thanking him. Sinceyou’re back, does it mean that you’re ready to work on next season’s designs?”
Rita laughed when she heard this. “Ms. Pond, I still have three days of paid leave.”
“You can always cut it short.”
Rita remained quiet for a moment before she said, “I can get back to work earlier, but I need Someoneon my team.”
Silvia cocked an eyebrow in curiosity.
“Who?”
