After Divorce, She Becomes the Billionaire Heiress ( Sylvia and Cyril )
Chapter 118 Too Late to Stop Him
As Cyril reflected on the past years, he felt an overwhelming sadness. He sighed, realizing that if he wanted to make amends, heâd have to try his best, but whether Sylvia would accept his efforts was another matter entirely.
Following Bonnieâs accident, Cyril had intended to be by her side, but the revelation about Dewitt had changed everything. Now, he couldnât bring himself to care for Bonnie, who had to face the consequences of her own actions.
When Michelle arrived at the hospital, she found Bonnie furiously lashing out in her room, slamming
things onto the table in a rage.
âWhy? Why wonât my brother help me? He says I owe someone a favor, but Iâve never asked him for
anything!â
Bonnie was upset, expecting leniency from her brother after her mishap. Yet, he seemed indifferent to her plight, even believing she was indebted to others. No one had begged Dewitt to operate on her.
âEnough already! Do you realize how renowned the surgeon who operated on you is? Your brotherâs legs were saved by him. If it werenât for him, do you think you could sit here and throw a tantrum?â
Michelle was furious. Her daughter was severely injured, and her son seemed to abandon themâalthough he had stayed during the surgery, he had been absent since. Bonnie was still Cyrilâs sister; he should at
least show some concern.
After Michelleâs scolding, Bonnie felt wronged and confused.
âMom, are you blaming me? I didnât want any of this to happen. The accident was just thatâan accident. Why wonât my brother talk to me anymore? The way he looked at me today, itâs like I did something wrong.
âLet it be. Donât worry about what your brother thinks. You should feel lucky to have had such a skilled doctor operate on you. Your brother has his hands full with the company lately, and Iâll find a nurse to care for you. Iâm going to see what heâs so busy with at the office.â
Michelle was exhausted. Her daughter was acting out like a shrew when she should be resting and recovering peacefully. Why was Bonnie so intent on seeing Cyril?
Cyrilâs work was demanding enough without adding family drama, though he was reluctant to say so. The
company was his main priority.
Bonnie, realizing the futility of arguing, fell silent. She knew she was supposed to go.
if it werenât
for the accident, she wouldâve been long gone by now.
After a brief talk, Michelle left for the office to find Cyril, who was still avoiding her callsâlikely over their argument about Sylvia.
ly still upset
Michelle didnât feel she had done anything wrong. Sylvia had spent a lot of money to marry her son- wasnât she after something? And now, even after the divorce, Cyril was angry with her because of Sylvia.

Her son had lost all perspective.

Forsaking another call, Michelle headed straight to the company to confront Cyril. Little did she know that shortly after she left the hospital room, a new figure slipped inâit was none other than Dewitt.
Bonnie didnât recognize Dewitt when he entered the room dressed in a white lab coat. Assuming he was a doctor from the hospital, and frustrated from the scolding she just received from Michelle, Bonnie directed her anger towards Dewitt.
âMy arm is killing me! You people said youâd give me pain meds. Why havenât I received anything? Is this hospital planning to shut down or what?â she snapped at him.
Dewitt looked at her with disdain. âFoolish girl, donât you realize Iâm the one who saved your life? If you want to keep that arm, you better start showing some respect. Keep up this pointless chatter, and I might just take that arm off!â
Dewitt had come only to check on this person he had never met before, only to discover she was nothing
but trouble.
Bonnie, stunned by his threat, quickly turned even angrier. âItâs all because of you! My brother called and said he wouldnât come to see me because of you, pushing me to recover and then leave the country. Why should I go? You donât believe my arm will heal? Go ahead, try to remove it. Letâs see if you can walk out of here unscathed. My brother wouldnât let you off the hook!â
âUsing your brother to threaten me, how unfortunate for you. Those legs of his were saved by me as well. I take your arm off today, and I might as well ruin his legs too. Both of you are worthless!â Dewitt advanced step by step, and Bonnie, who had never been threatened this way before, began to feel a sudden wave of
fear.
She trembled, seeing his hand reach out towards her. âWhat are you doing? What do you want? Donât you
believe Iâll call for help?â
âGo ahead, call. Scream. Letâs see if anyone will bother to help you,â Dewitt sneered. The hospital was partially owned by his company, so he could do whatever he pleased without interference, and this time, he had come alone, unnoticed. He was all set to disassemble her arm without causing a stir.
âAh!!!â
Sylvia rushed to the hospital room as soon as she heard the news, but it was too late; she couldnât stop
Dewitt in time.
Arriving at the room, she saw Dewitt walk out calmly, wiping his hands nonchalantly as if nothing had happened. But Sylvia knew her brother all too well; that expression meant he had definitely taken Bonnieâs
arm off.
Bonnieâs scream had echoed throughout the entire floor. Sylvia, having run towards the source of the noise as fast as she could, was still just one step too late.
