After Divorce She Becomes the Billionaire Heiress (Sylvia and Cyril) novel Chapter 28

Chapter 28 Mistress 

Sylvia spoke with great confidence. “What joke? Bruce is my brother–in–law. Why wouldn’t he care for me?”

Besides, Cyril was meddling far too much. They were divorced with no relation now. On what grounds did he keep monitoring her actions? Who she dined with was none of his business, 

Bruce or not.

Cyril was only trying to warn Sylvia against foolishly getting embroiled with Bruce. But she clearly didn’t appreciate his good intentions.

“I’ll say it again – we’re divorced. I’m nothing to you now. Leave me be!” Sylvia said

derisively, shoving past him. She had to get back to her dinner, no time to waste chatting idly with Cyril.

If he had time to trail her dates, he could spend it accompanying his precious darling instead of bothering her!

Cyril was genuinely angry, but he had meant well. Since Sylvia remained unreceptive, he shouldn’t have wasted his breath. She would learn the truth eventually, one way or another.

Having accomplished his goal yet been rebuffed by Sylvia again, Cyril left in a fury, not inclined to linger any longer.

Back in the private room, Bruce noticed Sylvia seemed upset and asked what had happened.

“That man Cyril accosted me outside, can you believe it? He said you look down on me and I shouldn’t be with you. What business is it of his anymore?” Sylvia fumed as she recounted

the incident.

Bruce’s brows furrowed. It seemed Cyril had too much free time lately to be harassing Sylvia

like this.

“Nevermind him. Don’t let it ruin your appetite. Let’s eat,” Bruce said, redirecting the conversation. Sylvia was happy to stop talking about that annoying man.

Sylvia enjoyed a peaceful period focused between home and work. Occasionally she went out with Juliet for meals or shopping.

But barely a month had passed before shocking news broke – singer Karina had secretly been a rich man’s mistress!

No name was given, but detalls clearly indicated Cyril. Netizens instantly unearthed old social media posts where Karina hinted at a wealthy, generous boyfriend, Cross–referencing details, the man matched Cyril exactly.

The news also reached his mother Michele. She promptly phoned Cyril demanding an explanation. 

“What’s all this online about that woman ruining your marriage? I never cared for Sylvia but don’t like Karina either. If you had to pick one to help you, why her? Just look at the vitriol towards her now. However unrelated she may be, ongoing ties with her still jeopardize this family!”

Hearing his mother’s words, Cyril felt somewhat sickened. He had sensed her lack of

–

warmth towards Sylvia long ago in Michele’s eyes, Sylvia brought no valuable background

or connections.

Cyril knew his mother was pragmatic, yet was still surprised at how readily she cut ties with Karina over this scandal.

“You welcomed Karina quite warmly into our home recently, Mother. No need for your concern anymore. I will handle this,” Cyril said curtly before hanging up.
