After Divorce, She Becomes the Billionaire Heiress ( Sylvia and Cyril )
1/3
Chapter 146 Seeing Once, Beating Once
Juliette definitely toned it down a bit for Sylviaâs sake. Gotta admit, Cyril deserved a pat on the back for that day. Even though we donât know what Sylvia went through before, the scene in the elevator was definitely off.
But being disgusted by Cyril and being thankful to him are two different things. So, after giving Cyril a piece of her mind, Juliette decided to keep quiet.
During dinner, Juliette didnât say anything outrageous either.
The main reason she didnât say anything overâtheâtop was that she was afraid sheâd end up giving Cyril another round of criticism from start to finish. And thatâs not what Sylvia wanted to see. So, she held back.
As the meal was wrapping up, Juliette put down her utensils and said to Sylvia, âAlright, weâve finished eating, letâs go pay.â
Originally, Cyril had planned to settle the bill halfway through, but Juliette grabbed his hand, and in the end, Sylvia didnât hesitate after hearing Julietteâs words. She immediately got up to pay at the counter.
Seeing Sylvia leave, Juliette turned to Cyril with a serious expression.
âI donât know what suddenly made you regret and want to be good to her, but some things, once done,
canât be undone. The hurt you caused her will never fade away. You donât need to keep appearing in her life. If you truly want her to be happy, you shouldnât do things that bother her. You know that every time you show up, it just brings back memories of the grievances she suffered when she was with you. This isnât about loving her, itâs about satisfying your own selfish desires and making yourself feel better.â
As an outsider, Juliette saw things very clearly. What Cyril did wasnât touching anyone else; it was touching herself.
So, he didnât even consider the damage he was causing Sylvia each time he appeared, each time claiming
it was for her own good.
âLetâs call it quits with the elevator incident. Whatever happened that day, you did save her, thatâs a fact. But everything has its limits. Sheâs not holding onto the past, which is giving you both some dignity. Youâre smart, I hope you wonât erase that last bit of dignity. Otherwise, those around her wonât let you off easy. You should understand that youâre able to sit here peacefully with her because everyone pities her and
doesnât want to do anything to you.â
Sylvia would never say these things, because sheâd swallow the bad by herself.
But as Sylviaâs good friend, how could Juliette not feel for her?
So, she spoke these words on Sylviaâs behalf to Cyril.
It was a mistake that got Sylvia into her current situation, and it was time to correct it. The prerequisite for this correction was for Cyril to understand his current situation and stop struggling and fantasizing
needlessly.
âIn your life, there must be something more important than Sylvia. When that something comes up, you

wonât choose Sylvia. When that day comes, delivering a painful blow to Sylvia, youâll stop dragging her
around.â
Seeing Sylvia had finished paying and was about to return, Juliette stopped talking.
2/3
Juliette had been stopping Cyril all along from paying because she knew that if Cyril succeeded in paying today, there would inevitably be another chance for them to meet up for a meal in the future.
And Juliette didnât want to give Cyril that chance.
Now that the meal was over, they didnât need to meet up again in the future, so Cyrilâs lingering over yesterdayâs events was even more unnecessary.
If he truly wanted to be good to Sylvia, then he should heed the words Juliette had spoken today and
never bother Sylvia again. It would be good for both of them.
âWeâre done paying, letâs go.â
Seeing Sylvia approaching, Juliette put on a smile, took her and Sylviaâs arms, and left.
The two of them left quickly, not giving Cyril a chance to say goodbye. Of course, Sylvia had something she wanted to say originally, but now that she didnât have the chance, it didnât matter.
The two of them left, and Cyril sat there, still in a daze.
The words Juliette said made his brain pause for a moment.
Just then, footsteps approached him, and he looked up hopefully, thinking it was Sylvia, only to find it was
Balk.
Balk had been wearing a mask, but after seeing Cyril, he didnât care about the mask anymore and came
over.
âShameless, pestering my sister?â
After saying that, Balk grabbed Cyrilâs shirt and punched him in the face.
Cyrilâs face instantly swerved, but Balk wouldnât stop there. He continued punching Cyril, one punch after
another.
Until his hands were red, and Cyrilâs face was swollen, with traces of blood, did Balk stop.
âIâm telling you, stay away from my sister from now on. Every time you show up, Iâll beat you up. Youâve been bullying my sister for so long, do you really think our family has no temper? Is Juliette right, that weâre just feeling sorry for my sister, so we donât do anything to you? But if you keep pushing it, donât blame us for not being polite!â
After saying that, Balk took out a mask from his pocket, put it on, and left the restaurant.
Balkâs actions had already attracted the attention of the people around, but they didnât know whether they should step forward to stopâit or take pictures first.
Cyril, after being hit twice, finally began to sober up a bit. He realized that the reason he was still okay until now was also because of Sylviaâs kindness.

He sat there with a bitter smile for a while before standing up and walking out in a daze.
Should he really, as Juliette and Balk said, stop bothering Sylvia anymore? Would that give them both some dignity?
But he wanted to give them both dignity, and he also hoped Sylvia would live a better life. He just wasnât willing to let go like this.
