After Divorce, She Becomes the Billionaire Heiress ( Sylvia and Cyril )
Chapter 127: A Grand Entrance
So, these two must have just met, right? But Sylvia didnât shove this guy away from her, which means. theyâre closer than I thought.
But Cyril doesnât have a clue about this guy standing in front of him.
Cyrilâs itching to walk over and ask Sylvia about their relationship, but he canât seem to take that step. Heâs just stuck there, staring at them both.
Sylviaâs been facing away from Cyril the whole time, plus sheâs focused on the guy in front of her, so she hasnât noticed Cyril lurking behind.
âHey, how come youâre here? Werenât you busy with Miranda doing something else?â
Even though thereâs nobody around, Sylvia still lets go of Duncanâs hand.
They have this little clique, where they chat about all sorts of stuff every day. Duncan mentioned they might join after they finished up with Miranda. So Sylviaâs kinda surprised, like, werenât you supposed to be busy? How come youâre here now?
Duncan catches sight of someone standing nearby. He knows who it is and decides to edge closer to Sylvia. Even though he doesnât actually touch her, from Cyrilâs angle, it totally looks like theyâre close.
âOf course, weâre done with the other thing, so here I am, Heard this place is pretty interesting, thought Iâd check it out. Arenât you happy to see me?â
As Duncan speaks, he puts on this slightly hurt expression, leaving Sylvia at a loss for words.
âWell, thatâs not really up to me. After all, I didnât organize this event. But since youâre here, you could mingle with the folks around, make some connections. Who knows, it might be helpful for you in the
future.â
As Sylviaâs about to get all serious and start talking business with Duncan, he feels a bit exasperated. He just reaches out and covers Sylviaâs mouth with his hand.
âAlright, alright, spare me the lectures. I know I should network with them, but Iâm here to find you, not to listen to you preach. By the way, I bumped into Bruce on my way here, and he mentioned something. You two really are like siblings; you talk similarly.â
Sylvia hears Duncanâs words and bursts out laughing. Duncanâs the kind of guy who craves freedom and hates being tied down. So being here, he must be feeling pretty uncomfortable.
âOkay, okay, I wonât talk about that anymore. My brother and I are about to leave. Are you leaving too?â
Theyâve pretty much wrapped things up, and Sylviaâs said what she needed to. Thereâs not much else to discuss.
Might as well just head home.
When Duncan hears Sylvia saying theyâre about to leave, his eyes light up. He grabs Sylviaâs wrist and starts pulling her towards the exit.
âDonât rush. I have something to tell you. Come on, Iâve been planning this for ages.â
Sylviaâs a bit puzzled. What could Duncan possibly have prepared?
So she follows Duncan downstairs,
Seeing the two of them heading downstairs so intimately, Cyrilâs eyes start to redden, feeling a pang of hurt deep inside
At this moment, he feels like he can understand Sylviaâs feelings over the years.
Is this how Sylvia feels every time Cyrilâs with Karina?
Feelings heâs never experienced before are flooding him now that Sylviaâs distanced herself from him.
Apart from sadness, thereâs nothing left in his heart.
Cyril lets out a sigh, almost like torturing himself, and joins the two downstairs, eager to see what theyâre
up to.
When they reach the ground floor, Cyril is shocked by what he sees.
In the middle of the venue, thereâs a red carpet laid out, surrounded by decorations, with soft romantic.
music playing.
All this in just a moment, showing how thoughtful and quick the preparation was.
Duncan grabs Sylvia and leads her to the center of the red carpet. He snaps his fingers, and the music suddenly changes to upbeat dance tunes.
People around them see whatâs happening and flash meaningful smiles, Clearly, they know something might happen next.
Sylviaâs speechless. This kind of setup is beyond her expectations.
Little did she know, Duncan had secretly prepared all this. If she knew Duncan had laid out a red carpet here and coordinated with so many people, she wouldnât have come downstairs.
Sylvia thinks sheâs been quite highâprofile lately, but she never expected to become even more so here.
âAre you out of your mind? Preparing all this here, itâs like youâre about to propose or something.â
Sylvia lowers her voice, saying to Duncan.
She doesnât want people around to misunderstand their relationship.
Duncan hesitates for a moment. He did have that idea originally, but seeing Sylviaâs slightly reluctant expression, he realizes his efforts havenât made her happy, maybe even annoyed her.
With an awkward smile on his face, Duncan bites his lip. âI didnât really think that far ahead. I just heard you were here, and Cyril too. I didnât want you to feel embarrassed. If you donât like it, should I have it all removed?â
Sylvia knows thatâs Duncanâs mindset. He seems to be at odds with Cyril, popping up wherever Cyril is,

and always making a scene.
âI think itâs a bit too late to remove all this now, with so many people watching quietly as we walked in. Whatever plans you have, letâs just get them over with quickly and leave. So we donât make it awkward.â
Sylvia genuinely feels that way. With everyoneâs eyes fixed on them, leaving now might stir up even more. gossip. Itâs easier to just go along with Duncan.
But the thought of whatâs coming next makes Sylviaâs head ache.
Anyway, whether they leave or stay here today, thereâll definitely be more trouble tomorrow.
Duncanâs eyes light up. He pulls Sylvia to the center of the red carpet, and with the music starting, they start dancing.
Many others join in too.
This rather dull business gathering instantly becomes more interesting, all thanks to Duncanâs unexpected
move.
