Usually when we meet, you mostly ignore them, but this time is even more so. It makes several people feel resentful inside, but they don't know how to express it. Cyril watched Sylvia leave, finally lowering his head silently. The old man said nothing.
On the contrary, Jonathan was somewhat dissatisfied. He watched Cyril staring at Sylvia's direction and after snorting, said, "What's so great about her? He'll realize how wrong he was when he comes back. Do you really think he's a good person? Bruce on the left, Miles on the right, and who knows how many others behind? He just thinks he's special because he's Balk's sister? Is being a singer such a big deal after all?"
Jonathan's words were full of disdain and contempt for Sylvia. Cyril had heard this kind of talk before, but if it weren't for these words, he didn't think Sylvia would be so angry. But it was too late to say anything now because Sylvia didn't even want to talk to him.
"Do you think it sounds good to say such things from the past till now? If you really think these words sound good to you, then forget everything I've said."
Cyril's sudden defense left Jonathan stunned. He had never seen Cyril so unwilling before when he talked about Sylvia. How could he speak to him like this after realizing Sylvia's difference after their divorce? They had been together for so many years, couldn't they compare to Sylvia, who had only been married for a few years?
"If you think she's so good now, why didn't you think so before?"
Today, Jonathan seemed as displeased as if he had eaten a bullet, and Cyril only glanced at him once, saying nothing, with an expression of complete indifference.
"I didn't say anything before, but I never thought of divorcing her either."
Saying these things now was meaningless because the concept of divorce was still divorce, and there was nothing else they could do. They all knew that continuing the topic would probably lead to an argument, and they didn't want to fight over such things. So, they said nothing and returned to their respective private rooms.
Sylvia and Juliette returned to their box, still feeling somewhat upset about what had just happened.
"Is there something wrong with that person? Why does he keep pestering you? Does he really think what he's doing now is very sincere? What's he up to now? Isn't it a bit too late to want to make amends now?"
"Don't worry about him. It's not worth getting angry over someone like him. How about I bid for that crown you wanted later to make you happy?"
Seeing Juliette's annoyed expression, Sylvia smiled helplessly. She remembered there was a crown on the car today that Juliette liked very much. It might be a good idea to bid for it and make Juliette happy.
Juliette grumbled but eventually agreed. However, neither of them noticed someone passing by behind them while they were talking, glancing into their box. Cyril and Jonathan were surprised to see Sylvia sitting with Juliette on the second floor. This lack of status was unacceptable, but considering Juliette's identity, it was somewhat acceptable.
