After Divorce, She Becomes the Billionaire Heiress ( Sylvia and Cyril )
Chapter 125 Maintenance
There was a moment when Cyril really wanted to come clean about his relationship with Silvia, but he knew Silvia would never want to be associated with him in any way.
Plus, their past Interactions hadnât been great. Most people knew he had a wife, knew he was just a figurehead, not respected by others.
Maybe it was possessiveness or guilt, but Cyril didnât want anyone else to know about it. He hoped that one day, he and Silvia could start anew, leaving all the rumors behind as if they never existed.
âI never thought you were like this. So, how did you mistreat her when I wasnât looking?â
âBro, donât listen to her nonsense. I never mistreated her. You know, I barely even saw her.â
âYou sure didnât see her much. But whenever you did, you found ways to torment her. I just didnât know about it until now. Do you think Iâll just pretend nothing happened?â
Seeing his sister flustered trying to explain, Cyril realized how wrong he had been all these years.
When they got married, he never thought about divorce. He thought Silvia was enjoying all the perks he brought. But recently, he realized Silvia hadnât enjoyed any of it; she endured endless torment.
If he were the one suffering, how could he forgive the one who caused it?
So, Silvia hating herself, avoiding him, that was understandable. It was all his fault.
âRemember this, Cyril. I wonât tolerate this again. If it happens once more, even if Mom and Dad come begging on your behalf, I wonât give you any mercy.â
With that, Cyril left, leaving Bonnie behind.
Jonathan saw Cyril leaving and Bonnie standing there, unsure what to do.
He wanted to console Bonnie, but Cyrilâs reaction indicated something was wrong.
If he followed Cyril, what about Bonnie?
Leaving Bonnie here would only invite more ridicule. Even if they sealed all information tonight, the upper echelon would still gossip.
Jonathan stood there, torn between options.
Finally, he braved it and led Bonnie away from the garden. She couldnât stay at the party, it would only add
to the mockery.
After leaving the garden, Silvia was on her way back to the banquet hall when she ran into Bruce.
Bruce had heard about Silvia and Bonnie in the garden and hurried over, worried about his sister. Seeing her unharmed, he sighed in relief.

His concern faded, replaced by his usual calm demeanor. âDid they trouble you? Your brotherâs here.â
Hearing Bruceâs words, Silvia felt a warmth in her heart and smiled.
Whenever she faced trouble, her brothers would stand by her, even if they didnât say anything. She knew. theyâd have her back when needed.
âIâm fine, Bruce. Iâm not the same as before. They wonât dare bully me again.â
âItâs about time. But youâre my sister; I canât stand by doing nothing. Come with me.â
Bruce gently put his arm around Silviaâs shoulder, leading her back into the banquet hall.
As they circled around the hall, they bumped into Cyril coming from the garden.
Cyril, seeing Silvia, felt guilty. âIâm sorry, I didnât expect this to happen. If I had knownâ¦â
âCyril, spare your apologies. Did you not anticipate such a thing happening? You let those people bully Silvia without any remorse. Only now, after realizing she saved your life, do you feel sorry? Do you itâs too late? Or do you believe your belated defense erases everything?â
Bruce cut Cyril off. Since Silvia had expressed her wish to marry Cyril, their family hadnât viewed him favorably. Especially considering all the grievances Silvia had endured over the years, most of which. resulted from Cyrilâs inaction.
âI didnât mean toâ¦â
think
Cyrilâs expression soured. He wanted to question why Bruce was interrogating him, but he know he had lost that right and status.
He didnât even have the right to inquire about their relationship anymore.
âOf course, you didnât mean to. But every time Silvia suffered, you remained indifferent as if nothing happened. Youâre no different from those people.â
Bruce referred to the ones who had hurt Silvia in the past. In a way, Cyril and those people were alike.
âI donât care what happened before. But from now on, I hope these mindless incidents cease. If they happen again, Mr. Streng, I hope you can bear the wrath of the Ivan Group.â
Before, Bruce couldnât vent his frustration for Silvia, but now he had the chance, and he wouldnât let it
pass.
After saying this, Cyril remained silent, his gaze fixed on Silvia. He knew his efforts were too late, but he still wanted to make amends.
âLetâs go.â
Silvia didnât care much for Bruce and Cyrilâs words. She felt it was time to move on and didnât want to waste more time on this matter.
However, Cyril felt Silviaâs lack of a direct response sided with Bruce. He felt that Silvia also agreed with
what Bruce said.

Thinking about this, Cyrilâs heart ached with regret and pain.
Watching Silvia and Bruce leave together, they looked so compatible. Once, he also had the chance to stand beside Silvia, just as compatible.
