After Divorce She Becomes the Billionaire Heiress (Sylvia and Cyril) novel Chapter 128

Chapter 128: What’s the Comparison

Duncan’s series of moves really set the whole atmosphere on fire, and many people here were happily Joining in the fun.

While Sylvia was dancing with Duncan in the middle of the dance floor, she noticed Bruce was busy

with others. Judging by Bruce’s expression, he must have agreed on several collaborations.

That surprised Sylvia quite a bit. She hadn’t expected such an occasion to foster several collaborations, but hey, it wasn’t a bad thing.

Duncan had other plans initially, but since Sylvia wasn’t too keen on them, he settled for starting with dancing, and that was that.

Everyone gathered at the center stage, dancing to several songs, and things gradually returned to a more

formal tone.

However, that little interlude of relaxation made everyone quite happy.

Sylvia was catching her breath, and Duncan guided her to sit down and brought her a glass of juice. Looking at the juice in Duncan’s hand, Sylvia furrowed her brow. Everyone else was drinking alcohol, and here she was with juice. It felt a bit out of place.

Of course, the most important question was, where did Duncan get that juice from?

“Don’t look at me like that. You know I’m always very considerate. So when preparing for something, I always think it through. I know it’s a party, and you’d probably want to drink, but I figured Bruce wouldnt want to drink too much. So, I arranged for someone to get you this juice. How about that? Am I being particularly attentive? Do you feel like you’re almost falling for me?”

Some of the heartfelt words were wrapped in jokes, while others were directly expressed.

Though Duncan seemed very relaxed, deep down, he was quite nervous. He didn’t know if Sylvia would take his joke seriously.

Sylvia rolled her eyes directly, took the juice from his hand, had a sip, and put it aside.

“If that’s what you think, then I bet there are plenty of girls here feeling fluttery because of your thoughtfulness. But sorry to burst your bubble, that fluttery feeling definitely doesn’t include me. Alright, if there’s nothing else, let’s go. I’ve had enough of being the center of attention here.”

That last remark genuinely gave her a headache. Sylvia was almost at her wit’s end. People around her kept staring at her, even though she wasn’t the one stirring up all these things.

Duncan shrugged. He had done what he wanted to do, and now that he understood Sylvia’s current mood, there was no reason to stay here any longer. Since Sylvia wanted to leave, he might as well just go.

But Sylvia’s reaction just now still made Duncan feel a little sad.

He had always hoped to take things further with Sylvia, but she seemed unwilling. So their relationship seemed to be stuck where it was.

Alright, I’ll go talk to Bruce for a bit.

There was a hint of reluctance on Duncan’s face, but Sylvia didn’t notice any difference.

Watching Duncan walk away towards Bruce after saying that, Sylvia took the opportunity to walk to a comer with her glass. It was closest to the exit, and as soon as those two men finished talking, they could leave immediately.

After a few more dance tunes, everyone resumed their conversations, and Cyril gradually regained his senses amidst the numbness.
