Chapter 222
“Why?”
Silvia pursed her lips as she could sense Neil’s anger beneath his calm exterior.
“I’m truly grateful that you saved me, and there were moments when I considered getting
back together with you.
“Yet, every time I tried to commit to that decision, I would recall the image of you being
with Ada.
“In Ten Miles Village, you cut off that rope without hesitation when the massive wave hit. It
was the first time you had decisively chosen me. But I know it’s because Ada wasn’t with
you. If she had been there, would you have chosen me so easily? I think the answer would
be no.”
Neil’s gaze turned cold. He looked into her eyes and said, “These are just assumptions. It’s
unfair of you to think of me that way.”
Silvia wore a bitter smile. She shook her head and said, “I know, but I can’t take that risk.

to repeat the same mistakes.”
“Don’t you have any confidence in me?”
“It’s not about you. I don’t have any confidence in myself. Even if we got back together, it
would be hard for me to trust you once ways again.”
more. Sooner or later, we’ll probably end up parting
As she finished speaking, silence filled the car.
It took a while before Neil finally said, “I understand.”
“Thank you. You’ve saved me twice, so think of it as me owing you two favors.”
Neil felt increasingly irritated, and he did not want to hear her trying to distance herself
from
him.
“That’s enough. I don’t want to hear it. Just leave.”
Neil was worried that if he stayed with her any longer, his anger would intensify.
Silvia silently stepped out of the car. As soon as she closed the door, the black Maybach
drove.
away.
Her heart hurt as she watched the car disappear from her sight, and her eyes were a bit
teary. She blinked and suppressed her emotions. Once she calmed down, she headed in
the opposite direction of Neil’s car.
They were from different worlds. If they continued to be with each other, nothing good

come out of it.
Upon returning to the mansion, Silvia was surprised to see Chris waiting at the door.
“What brings you here?”
Chris hugged her tightly in response.
Just as she was about to pull away, she felt a warm tear on her neck.
She was momentarily stunned.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWas Chris crying?
“Silvia, I’m sorry. I should have let you go first.”
He could not imagine what he would do if Silvia actually died because of him.
He was in a daze the entire day before. As soon as he heard the news of her safe return,
he hurried to her doorstep and waited for her.
Hearing the guilt in his tone, Silvia did not push him away. She gently patted him on the
back and tried to sound nonchalant by saying, “I’m fine. You don’t need to feel bad at all.‘
“I won’t put you in danger like that again!”
He vowed never to let himself be in the same powerless situation as yesterday.

Watching helplessly as Neil cut the rope and jumped into the water was more distressing
for Chris than facing his own imminent death.
“Okay. You need to let go of me now. I’m almost out of breath.”
Chris quickly released her with eyes full of guilt.
“I’m sorry.”
Silvia shook her head. “Don’t worry about it. It’s late. You should go back and rest.
“Alright. You should rest too.”
