After Divorce She Becomes the Billionaire Heiress (Sylvia and Cyril) novel Chapter 221

At this moment, Sylvia felt like she had walked into a wolf's den, feeling incredibly awkward all over.

If she hadn't asked so many questions earlier, maybe she wouldn't be feeling this awkward now. But Sylvia felt that if she hadn't spoken up, Miles would have said these things sooner or later.

But when Miles said he wanted to pursue her, she didn't feel particularly repulsed. Perhaps this was just the difference between people. If Cyril had said the same thing, she would have definitely been disgusted.

Sylvia didn't say anything, and Miles realized that his words just now might have been a bit too forward, leaving Sylvia unsure of how to respond.

So Miles smiled and said, "Sorry, maybe I've caused you trouble. That wasn't my intention. If my words have caused you trouble, just pretend you never heard them. I don't want to make you uncomfortable or force you into anything. Wanting to pursue you is just my personal thought."

Miles's guilt didn't seem fake, and seeing the expression on his face, Sylvia felt somewhat relieved. She couldn't come up with a clear stance right now.

"It's nothing. Your sudden confession just startled me. But please don't bring up such things again in the future. Oh, by the way, are you taking Jimmy out to play later?"

"Nah, I've grounded him. He got hold of my phone and deliberately messaged you, causing all this trouble. He thought I'd let him off the hook once you came over. But I've made him stay home and behave. So, I won't be taking him out."

Miles rubbed his temples, feeling a bit frustrated. He couldn't understand why his nephew, who was his brother's son, was causing so much trouble. Back in his day, they never caused such problems. Of course, now his nephew had become his son.

"Maybe he's trying to get your attention this way. Kids his age can be very picky. But things will get better after a while. What do you think?"

Sylvia hadn't raised children herself, but she used to love kids and wanted one of her own. Now seeing Jimmy, she couldn't help but imagine. Kids his age are probably noisy and mischievous.

Miles laughed at Sylvia's words, acknowledging the truth. Kids at this age could be quite a handful.

"Though they can be mischievous at this age, I really can't stand it. The teacher keeps calling me every other day to report something he's done, either breaking school property or bullying a classmate. I've been going to the school more often lately because of his antics."

So this time, he had to discipline Jimmy a bit to show him that he couldn't keep causing trouble.

Even Jonathan, who came today, left with a serious expression, leaving everyone feeling uncertain. They didn't know what had happened, so no one dared to bother Cyril at this time.

In the evening, Jonathan came again. When he saw Cyril still in the same position, sitting in his chair, he couldn't help but feel angry. Was Cyril really struggling here because of Sylvia? Did he really think Sylvia could see him here feeling sorry for her?

Indeed, none of them had discovered Sylvia's identity before. Now that it was exposed, it was indeed difficult to accept. But Cyril's attitude really made him wonder if it was necessary.

Seeing Sylvia's attitude today, she clearly didn't care about what Cyril was thinking. But now Cyril seemed unable to recover.

"I want to win her back."

Cyril suddenly spoke these words, startling Jonathan. Now he wanted to win Sylvia back. Then what was he doing before? Oh wait, he did have such thoughts before, but he had never expressed them so clearly. Now suddenly expressing them like this really made people doubt his motives.

"You have to explain to me clearly. Do you want to win Sylvia back because you still have feelings for her, or is it because of Sylvia's identity? If it's because of Sylvia's identity, I don't think you need to do this anymore. Sylvia's identity definitely won't look at you."
