Chapter 199 Comfort
Originally, he wanted to explain a bit more, but Silvia didn’t give him the chance at all. What was there to explain anyway? What he intended to do was evident to everyone present.
Because everyone had already seen what he was up to, so their expressions were filled with disgust and disdain.
Of course, although they were angry with Cyril’s reaction, Cyril’s actions and attitude unintentionally exposed how Silvia had been wronged before. Originally, they were on Silvia’s side, and now knowing how much Silvia had suffered, they couldn’t bear it.
“In the past, because I liked you, I could tolerate all these things. But now that I no longer like you, it would be troublesome if you didn’t manage those around you. I have a temper, as you know. I’ve been living too comfortably lately, so I don’t want others to cause trouble in front of me.”
Silvia looked calmly at Cyril, making him extremely nervous. Although Silvia only mentioned that his temper wasn’t good and asked Cyril to manage those around him, Cyril had a feeling. If he couldn’t control those around him and they continued to cause trouble for Silvia, she might actually take action.
“Do you remember the big gift bag I gave you on your grandfather’s last birthday? No matter what you thought of me before or what you think now, you need to change your attitude. Don’t let these people bother me anymore.”
With that said, Silvia’s face carried a hint of a smile, completely different from the tough words just now. Those around them felt a bit uneasy seeing this transformation. They hadn’t expected Silvia to be so tough, but the more ruthless she was, the better they felt.
“In the past, you didn’t cherish it. Now that you’ve changed partners, you’re bullying again. How can there be such a person? And the bunch of hangers–on around you aren’t good either. Mixing with them makes things even worse. Fortunately, we’re all here today. If we weren’t, who knows how we’d be bullied?”
“The reason you can live so peacefully today and even bully Silvia is all because she used to like you. If Silvia didn’t like you, do you really think you’d be in such a good position now?”
“Blind as a bat.”
Duncan, Miranda, and Kate each mocked before leaving, leaving Cyril and his group standing there, unsure of what to do. They looked at each other, feeling that what the three of them said wasn’t entirely false. Silvia was indeed different from before.
“What should we do now? We can’t just leave it like this, but what was that woman doing just now? Suddenly falling to the ground like that.”
Although they didn’t know why this woman was following Cyril, they thought she might be Cyril’s new lover, so they didn’t say anything. However, her sudden collapse and the ensuing chaos made everyone uncomfortable, but what made them most uncomfortable was Silvia’s attitude today.
Cyril remained silent, his face dark. Up to this point, he had to admit that Silvia was completely different from before. They could bully Silvia before because she was willing to back down, but if Silvia wasn’t willing to back down, no one could make her.
“There’s nothing left to do but leave.”
He didn’t know if he was talking to the student behind him or to the woman on the ground. The woman looked at Cyril’s merciless back with a pale face, knowing she was truly done for this time.
When he came today, he had hoped to establish some relationship with Cyril, but when he saw Cyril leave without a second glance, he realized how ridiculous his thoughts were.
Cyril left so quickly, not even willing to look back at him. His future was already ruined today.
The woman regretted it terribly. She now understood why she was able to come with the male photographer today–it was because he resembled Silvia in some ways, especially his eyes. Seeing her eyes probably reminded Cyril of Silvia, so he could follow along. But it was too late for all this now.
Now, the only way to think about it was whether she could keep what she had in her hands. If she couldn’t, then it would truly be over.
Thinking of this, the woman quickly stood up from the ground, stumbled down the mountain, and ran. She had to be faster, otherwise, with just one phone call from Cyril, all her years of effort would have been in vain.
After Silvia and the others left, they each went to do their own things. Silvia had wanted to help, but they didn’t want her to. They probably wanted to discuss something behind Silvia’s back. Silvia didn’t care. They had been holding back their anger for so many years, so it was best to let it out now.
So, he prepared to get something else, but as soon as he turned around, he bumped into Miles’s arms. Miles also reached out and hugged Silvia, making her stunned for a moment. What was he doing?
