After divorce, Ex-wife Revealed Identities novel Chapter 56

Tiffany gritted her teeth in anger. Faking an aggrieved look, she muttered, "Thank you so much, Mr. Howlett."

Franklin sat in the Bentley. The car roared away the next second.

Jasper gaped at it and couldn't believe he had been dumped heartlessly.

...

Pearlhall Villa.

After Sylvia got off the taxi and was about to walk into the house, she heard a harsh creak behind her.

Franklin hopped off the car and strode to catch up with her.

Sylvia recognized him from his footsteps without looking back.

"You should go home. Why are you here?"

"Do you want me to watch you stay with other men in the same house without doing anything?" Franklin saw the two tall, sturdy men at the door, who bowed at Sylvia politely. "Good evening, Miss Andrews."

Logan's men respected her, which impressed Franklin again.

"We've divorced. I have freedom. It's my right to stay with whomever I want." Sylvia stopped at the iron gate of the villa and cast him a glance. "Mr. Maskelyne, you'd better stop being so nosy."

Then she shut him out.

Franklin watched her gradually vanish.

The following morning.

Sylvia finished breakfast and was about to leave the house. Logan drifted downstairs, circling her. Then with a flattering smile, he asked, "Boss, can you do me a favor, please?"

"Ehn?" Sylvia was annoyed by him two days ago. Afraid of being sent to the mine in Africa, Logan behaved himself and avoided her.

She was amazed by his boldness now.

"There's a charity banquet on Friday evening. Netizens on Twitter know you are my goddess. Can you... Can you..." Logan stammered while studying Sylvia's expression.

"Want me to be your date?" Sylvia slapped him. "You do have guts, Logan! How dare you!"

"Boss, I was too drunk to realize what I was doing that evening. If I hadn't been drunk, I'd have killed myself rather than post that photo on Twitter," Logan explained gloomily. He didn't look like a company's president in Sylvia's presence. "Please, Boss. Help me. I cannot attend the banquet alone. It'll be so shameful."

"It depends on your performance." Sylvia darted at him, picked up her handbag, and left.

Logan howled pitifully behind her.

Sylvia would perform Levi's operation today.

Levi had been severely injured, so she didn't want other doctors to take care of him.

After arriving at the hospital, she went to Levi's ward. Cara was watching her husband. There were two men in the room who looked old and haggard. Sylvia could tell they had been worn out by hard work in the past.

"Are you my son's surgeon?" Levi's mother stared at Sylvia meanly. With a disdainful look, she doubted, "You are so young. Are you sure you can do the operation?"

Sylvia had been doubted countlessly. She checked the signed operation agreement and passed it to a nurse behind her. Then she answered, "Yes, I can."

"You know what? You'll be doomed if anything goes wrong with my son." Levi's mother disliked Sylvia by instinct. It was the first time that she had seen such a pretty doctor. That was also why she threatened Sylvia.

She didn't trust the doctor.

Sylvia didn't want to argue with such an ignorant woman.

Neve had done it the previous day. Now, Levi's mother doubted her. Sylvia felt too exhausted to deal with such a matter.

Ignoring the old woman, she turned away.

Levi's mother was angry, so she vented it on Cara. "You can't ignore my son's life for saving money. If my son dies, I won't let go of you."

While she spoke, she pinched Cara's arm fiercely.
