After Divorce, She Becomes the Billionaire Heiress ( Sylvia and Cyril )
Chapter 123: Slap
Sylvia had no idea what happened in the hospital afterward, but seeing Bonnie in her current state, she knew her days there werenât easy.
But really, who could blame anyone? If Bonnie hadnât gone too far in the first place, none of this wouldâve happened.
Bonnieâs plight didnât really warrant sympathy.
âIâve suffered so much, who are you to swagger in here and attend this kind of gathering? Donât forget your place; you were the one who shamelessly tried to cozy up to our family!â
There werenât many people in the garden, but Bonnie was determined to embarrass Sylvia, so her voice was loud. D
After hearing the commotion between them, many people approached, curious about the recent
developments.
Most of the people there knew Bonnie and Sylvia; Bonnie had the entire Strong family behind her, and everyone knew her. As for Sylvia, she had gained some fame in the mall recently, so quite a few people
knew her too.
But no one expected them to still know each other, let alone not getting along.
âWhy are you silent now? Feeling guilty, perhaps? I never thought youâd be such a shameless woman, already with another man!â
To an outsider, it might seem like Sylviaâs achievements were all thanks to men.
Bonnieâs face contorted with anger, looking particularly horrified.
But Sylvia remained calm as ever, as if Bonnieâs words and actions wouldnât affect her at all.
In fact, Bonnieâs words didnât affect her much.
When Sylvia decided to let go of everything, the past no longer affected her.
âWhy should I feel guilty? Why did your arm end up like that? Donât you have a conscience? If Iâm not mistaken, I think your brother should have warned you not to bother me unless necessary.â
After knowing Cyril for so many years and loving him deeply, Sylvia knew his character best.
She had noticed Cyrilâs changes recently, as well as his desire for reconciliation.
So, to make her life more comfortable, Cyril would surely warn Bonnie not to cause trouble.
But Bonnie still came to confront her, clearly not taking Cyrilâs warning seriously.
âIf youâre going to hang ontó me today just to say that everything Iâve achieved is because of men, then your perspective is limited. You canât see beyond that.â
Claiming to be from a prestigious family yet saying and doing such ridiculous thingsâwasnât she just

providing more fodder for gossip?
After Sylvia said this, Bonnie could clearly feel the people around them subtly mocking her.
Bonnie grew even angrier. Her pride and her familyâs prestige didnât allow her to be bullied by Sylvia. She raised her hand angrily, intending to teach Sylvia a lesson.
As in the past, she could bully Sylvia without reservation. No matter the occasion, no matter what Sylvia said or did, she would bear Bonnieâs wrath.
Just when everyone thought Bonnieâs slap was about to land on Sylviaâs face, Sylvia grabbed Bonnieâs
wrist.
The slap never landed on anyoneâs face; it was interrupted like that.
Bonnie was surprised. She tried to pull her hand back, but after spending so long in the hospital, weakened as she was, how could she be a match for Sylvia?
Sylvia held Bonnieâs hand tightly, unmoving, her expression as calm as ever.
Struggling and cursing, Bonnie said, âLet go of me, you despicable woman, do you believeâ¦â
âBelieve what?â Sylvia coldly interrupted Bonnie, âDo you want to say that once your brother arrives, Iâll be
in trouble?â
What a joke. If she still cared about that man, Bonnieâs words would have an impact, but she didnât care anymore. So, did her words hold any meaning?
Before Bonnie could say what she wanted, Sylvia had already let go of her hand, stepped back, and created some distance between them.
âI suppose the two months of treatment overlooked your real problem, which is here,â Sylvia said, pointing to her head, mockingly looking at Bonnie.
How could Bonnie endure such an insult? Just as she was about to say something, she saw someone
behind Sylvia.
Bonnie immediately covered her injured arm, took a step back, tears welling up in her eyes.
Watching this series of actions, Sylvia wasnât surprised anymore. If everything went as expected, the person behind her should be Cyril.
âI thought Sylvia had changed, but sheâs still the same as before, shamelessly bullying people, regardless
of the occasion!â
Jonathan had come with Cyril. He didnât know what had happened, but seeing Bonnie looking so wronged, he didnât hesitate to blame Sylvia..
After Jonathan said this, the whole scene fell silent. Sylvia silently turned around, calmly looked at Cyril, then shifted her gaze back to Jonathan.
âDid you just arrive? Do you know what happened just now?â
âDo I need to know what happened? Look at Bonnie, look at what youâve done to her. Do you know her

arm hasnât healed yet? She just come out of surgery!â
âSo what? Is your standard for judging a situation based on who looks more like a victim?â
Sylvia calmly countered, leaving Jonathan unsure how to respond.
In this situation, many would naturally think Bonnie was wronged, but Sylviaâs calm reaction made it seem like it wasnât a big deal.
Jonathan felt something wasnât quite right, but he didnât know what to say.
âWhat about you? Do you also think that way? Do you think Iâm just like before, bullying your sister regardless of the occasion, even though she looks healthier and stronger than me?â
Sylvia threw the question to Cyril.
