After Divorce She Becomes the Billionaire Heiress ( Sylvia and Cyril ) Chapter 80

Chapter 80 Sending Flowers

Early in the morning, Sylvia was discussing the day’s schedule with Jullet, when Ingrid

barged into the room without even knocking. This action agitated Sylvia, who commented, ” Ever heard of knocking?”

Caught off guard by Sylvia’s directness, Ingrid’s face flushed with embarrassment, “I just forgot to knock. Is it worth making such a big deal about it? I’ll remember next time. Now, look at this,” Ingrid said dismissively as she tossed some documents on the table and turned to leave.

But as Ingrid took a few steps, the documents hit her back and then fell to the floor. Sylvia had given Ingrid an indifferent glance but hadn’t paid any attention since. The sound of the documents hitting the ground turned the office eerily silent, with Jullet and Sylvia too engrossed in their work to bother looking up.

“Don’t go too far. Just because you’re sitting in the vice president’s seat doesn’t make you any better!” Ingrid spat out.

“oy don’t you try being vice

Juliet couldn’t hold back. “Quite the accomplishment, isn’t it? president then? If you’re not capable, stop whining here!” she retorted.

In Ingrid’s view, the VP position was meant to be hers until Sylvia swooped in and snatched it away, which was a bitter pill to swallow.

“We’ll see how long you can keep that position. Just having good looks won’t cement your place. Lack of expertise, and you’ll be ousted anyway!” Ingrid ranted before storming out without bothering with the documents.

Sylvia ignored the papers on the floor, and if Sylvia didn’t care, Juliet certainly wasn’t going. to bother with them. It wasn’t until Jack entered and saw the fallen documents that he picked them up, unsure if it would’ve been better just to leave them on the ground.

“Vice President, you have a lunch appointment with the manager of Giri Company soon. It’s about time to head out,” Jack informed Sylvia.

Sylvia nodded, gathered her things, and was about to leave when she spotted Ingrid also preparing to accompany them. She gave Ingrid an extra look.

What are you staring at? I’ve told you, don’t think you’re above everyone else just for having some charm. In the end, it’s real capability that matters. That’s the biggest difference between you and me,” Ingrid said with a hint of gloating.

Sylvia remained silent as Ingrid thought Sylvia’s silence was an admission of defeat,

believing that she’d secure the partnership this time and finally have the chance to bring Sylvia down.

They set off, with Ingrid taking her own car, while the other three shared another vehicle. Soon, they arrived at the restaurant they had booked.

As they reached the restaurant, Sylvia halted. She started to wonder if she was choosing the wrong times to go out since she seemed to run into Cyril overy time. And it wasn’t just any meeting – Cyril was there with the manager of Girl Company, and they appeared to be getting along quite well,

“Hello Sylvia, this is my good friend. We were classmates overseas, and after running into each other this year, I invited them to join us for lunch, I hope you don’t mind?” Henry said, introducing his friend,

What could Sylvia say to that? She smiled and shook her head. “We’re not discussing business today, so it’s like making a new friend,”

Sylvia’s demeanor was such that she seemed not to acknowledge Cyril at all. Cyril, wanting to greet her, couldn’t well continue after her statement, so he simply nodded a hello,

But Sylvia acted as if she didn’t even notice his nod, settling into her seat.

Once Sylvia sat down, everyone else followed suit, including Henry, the general manager of Gilli Company, who presented her with a dazzling bouquet of roses. Sylvia was taken aback. It was surprising enough to receive flowers, but roses were particularly suggestive.

“The last time I saw you, I was impressed by your demeanor. During our time discussing the partnership, I’ve discovered you’re a very capable woman, and I’d like to get to know you better,” Henry confessed, not hiding his true feelings,

Sylvia paused for a moment before laughing. “Thank you, but there’s something you might not know. I recently got divorced and am not currently interested in romance. So, these roses might not be the most suitable for me. If you feel bad about it, perhaps my assistant Juliet would appreciate your bouquet.”

With that, she shifted the focus to Juliet, who reacted by playfully pinching Sylvia under the table. In response, Sylvia gave Juliet’s hand a firm pat, all done without showing any reaction above the table.

“These flowers really are lovely, I’ll share them with our office colleagues. Thank you, Henry,” Juliet said, standing up to graciously accept the flowers and placing them to the side, sparing Henry further embarrassment.

“I apologize for not being aware of your situation. I’ve caused you trouble, but I still hope that maybe there’s a chance for us to develop something more in the future,” Henry added.

Sylvia offered only a smile, without a direct response. Ingrid, meanwhile, clearly struggled to watch the exchange in silence.

“She’s quite busy with her career, having recently become the VP. If she got into a

relationship now, it could distract her from her responsibilities. Henry, you shouldn’t let your own interests delay others,” Ingrid said with a backhanded tone, although no one called her out on it.

Now Henry felt even more awkward. He didn’t quite understand why Ingrid was tagging along, but since he had brought Cyril, having Sylvia bring someone didn’t seem so strange.
