Chapter 107 Seeking an Answer
Though Bonnie might have her foolish moments, she knew there were certain lines not to be crossed; creating a scene like this was one of them. Their behavior today was embarrassing enough, continuing to make a spectacle of themselves would only worsen the situation. Bonnie realized Katrina was up to no good and intended to put a stop to itâonly to discover Katrina harboring impure intentions towards her brother. In her attempt to thwart Katrinaâs plan, things escalated to blows.
Now, Bonnie wished to simply move past this disaster, but it seemed too lateâthe chaos had already
unfurled.
Katrina, adjusting her attire, hadnât foreseen how her life as an actress would lead to such a disgraceful
public row. She had indeed entered the premises owing to Barkâs invitation, but never intended things to
spiral as they had.
âDo you have any proof I was going to drug your brother?â Katrina challenged with a hint of panic.
âYou ask for proof?â Bonnie scoffed. âThe drug you were holding is the same as whatâs in my hand. If youâre so confident, letâs go get it tested and see if youâve done anything foul to my brother!â
Catching this exchange, Katrinaâs eyes darted anxiously for Bark, but he was nowhere to be found. The
confusion continued to grow until Bruce and Sylvia approached.
Both were aware of Barkâs machinations and felt a sense of helplessness at the pandemonium he had
caused in their own homeâit was humiliating.
Bruce spoke first, halting the turmoil. âIâm not sure whatâs causing all this commotion at our house. Is
there something you need help with?â
All eyes turned to Sylvia and Bruce, waiting to see their reaction to the incidentâparticularly Sylviaâs, given her indirect involvement.
Unexpectedly, Sylvia remained coolly detached as if she were an outsider, simply observing the drama
unfold.
âIâm sorry for the disturbance. We were in the wrong, and Iâll make sure to give you an explanation,â Cyril stated, acknowledging their mistake and accepting the responsibility to address it.
Bruceâs demeanor, typically amiable with others, frostily shifted when it came to Cyril. His expression soured, and he was noticeably curt in his response.
âIf youâre planning to give us an explanation, then I expect it wonât just be for tonightâs issue. There are many things you need to clarify for us. Are you really prepared to do that?â Bruce asked, making it clear the current situation wasnât the only problem on the table.
Hearing Bruceâs pointed words, Cyril understood that the issue of his marriage to Sylvia was being singled
out.
âBruce, whatâs past is past. Thereâs no point clinging to it and making mountains out of molehills. Letâs let Cyril handle this situation. After all, it involves his sister and that woman,â Sylvia said dismissively,

knowing all too well the mediaâs eagerness to spread sensational news. The Ivan family couldnât afford such scandal, so she didnât want the incident leaked. Regardless, the Ivan family wouldnât be tarnished by
it, as the incident had nothing to do with them directly. But Sylvia had noticed that complications seemed
to follow any connection with Cyrilâavoiding trouble was preferable.
When the gathered media heard Sylviaâs request, they knew their hopes of explosive coverage were dashed. If Sylvia was against spreading the news, what could they do? When she spoke, it was as if she
spoke for the Ivan family as a whole.
With an annoyed huff, Bruce turned and walked away with Sylvia, effectively washing their hands of the
messy event.
Witnesses hadnât expected the situation to deteriorate to such an extent and now looked at Cyril with a
mix of disdain and pity. He could have had a comfortable life with Sylvia and maybe even a connection to
the Ivan family, but it was clear now that he had squandered those chances.
After taking a deep breath, Cyril knew it was time to remove Bonnie and Katrina from the premises to
avoid further trouble.
âItâs all because of her that weâre in this mess. Donât let her off easily. Have the company blackball her; sheâs done nothing worthwhile right up to today,â Bonnie seethed, recalling her initial disdain for Sylvia. Yet, even her previous grievances with Sylvia paled in comparison to todayâs embarrassment.
âDo you think youâve handled today well? Go home, reflect on your behavior, and donât step foot outside for a month,â Cyril reprimanded his sister, his frustration and headache growing. Todayâs unresolved issues already weighed heavy on him, and the thought of facing the fallout from the many business connections at the event made his head throb.
âTake those two back; I need to talk with Sylvia.â
Cyril left without another word, not bothering with further explanations.
Jonathan stood dumbfounded. Why seek out Sylvia now? What could Cyril possibly want to say to her?
Cyril needed an answer from Sylvia herself. With her stature, she could have easily clarified the circumstances of their past. Yet, Sylvia had remained silent, not offering a word in her defense. He had always believed Sylvia incapable of the things she was accused of, but her silence was deafening.
Did this mean Sylvia had erred too? If Cyril had mistakes to account for, should Sylvia not share the blame for how things turned out?
