Chapter 48
Neil’s eyes flashed with anger as he asked, “That Lamborghini belongs to him?!”
It made sense why Curtis could never identify its owner. After he met Chris, Neil had
tasked Curtis with investigating him. But apart from details about his life after his debut,
they could not uncover
much else.
Their investigators had only discovered that Chris had ties to the influential Rios Family in
Imperial
City. The power structure in that city was even more intricate than the one in Ryoln City,
so it was challenging to look into Chris. As a result, Neil decided not to pursue the matter
any further.
Silvia was stunned to see Chris as well. After a brief pause, she nonchalantly said, “It has
nothing to do with you, Mr. Remus.”
Then, she hurried toward Chris. Seeing her enter the car without hesitation, intense
displeasure seemed to encompass Neil.
“Step on it!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSilvia seemed perplexed when she got in. “I called Dulcie, so why did you show up
instead?”
Chris smiled. “I was having dinner with her tonight. When she received your call,
something else also came up, so I made my way over instead.”
Silvia was surprised. When she worked as Chris’s agent in the past, Dulcie would often
visit her. That was how she got to know him over time.
“Why did you guys decide to have dinner together all of a sudden? Haven’t you been very
busy recently?”
His eyes lit up with joy, and he playfully said, “How did you know I was busy? Have you
been keeping an eye on me? Do you want me to sign an autograph for you?”
She laughed. “Speaking of an autograph, you used to have ugly handwriting. If I hadn’t
helped your with your handwriting practice, you wouldn’t have developed such a beautiful
autograph.”
Chris recalled the time when they practiced calligraphy together, and a sense of nostalgia
washed
over him.
“You didn’t help me alone. You helped all the artists under you, and we practiced together
back then.”
Back then, Silvia managed several other artists apart from him. She was not satisfied with
their handwriting, so she would organize calligraphy practice sessions for them every
evening.
Chris wanted to spend more time with her, so he would write poorly on purpose to ensure
that he could see her every night.
However, he never revealed this to Silvia.
She kept quiet for a few seconds, and her smile faded slightly. “Do you still keep in touch
with the
others?”
“Not much these days.”
At that time, the artists under Silvia had diverse personalities. Without her, their
interactions would have been scarce.
Nonetheless, the artists were all doing well now.
She was briefly taken aback when Chris drove her to her mansion in North City. “I don’t
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmlive here anymore. Let me send you back. I’ll drive home afterward.”
Chris frowned and asked, “You moved back?”
Silvia nodded. “Yeah. My divorce from my husband hasn’t been finalized yet.
He unknowingly tightened his grip on the steering wheel until his knuckles turned pale.
“If you need help, I can-”
“It’s okay. This is between me and him. I don’t want others to get involved.” Silvia
interrupted.
Her words hurt him. It seemed that he was merely an outsider to her.
“Silvia, I thought we were friends.”
Hearing the disappointment in his voice, she smiled faintly and said, “It’s because we’re
friends that
I don’t want to burden you with this. Let’s not talk about it. I’ll send you back.”
After she dropped him off at his hotel, Silvia returned to the mansion.
However, she did not realize that after she left, his agent came to drive him back to his
mansion in North City.
Chris felt a little down when he saw the dark mansion next to his.
