Sylvia had been itching to do something for a while, but she never had the chance. Now, this person had practically handed her the opportunity to slap him, and Sylvia couldn't be happier.
Miles, sitting beside her, was surprised. In all the time he'd known Sylvia, he'd never seen her act like this. Now, when she finally did, the person on the receiving end turned red with embarrassment.
At first, Miles didn't know who the person was, but after hearing what he said, Miles quickly figured it out. Most likely, this person was Cyril's sister.
Both of them stared at Bonnie, but nobody spoke. Until Cyril approached, his expression ugly. Bonnie thought her brother had come to help her and didn't realize he was about to slap her until it was too late.
Bonnie looked at her brother in disbelief. She never expected him to hit her again for this woman!
"I'm your sister! Is it appropriate for you to keep bullying me for this woman? I'll tell Mom about what you did today. She won't let you off!"
"Go ahead, tell her. Let's see who won't let who off!"
Cyril was now in charge of the company, and nobody could refute him, not even their mother. Besides, Cyril saw Bonnie making a scene, so he had to discipline her. If she got into trouble, it would be his fault. What did it have to do with Sylvia anyway?
Cyril didn't intend to speak up for Bonnie. After slapping her, he remained silent, warning her with his eyes. Sometimes, Cyril felt he had done enough for his sister, but her behavior had nothing to do with him now.
"Sorry, I didn't expect him to cause you trouble. Let me take him away. Although we have nothing to do with each other anymore, I think we deserve a chance to start over."
Cyril turned to Sylvia, seeking her approval. Before Sylvia could respond, Bonnie couldn't hold back.
"Are you crazy, brother? You want to reconcile with her again? Have you even considered our family? Besides, she was the one who did wrong first. She's done so many bad things, why should she be allowed back into our family? She has nothing now, but she's got her current position by cozying up to men. Why should she be allowed back?"
