After Divorce She Becomes the Billionaire Heiress (Sylvia and Cyril) novel Chapter 23

Chapter 23 Discuss about her

“Did she… actually do a lot for me all these years?” Cyril eventually asked quietly.

Unsure how to reply, Barry hesitated briefly. “Well, managing your daily affairs like meals, medications etc, Mrs Tan shouldered most of that. Just indirectly, informing me instead of directly interacting.” 

“Why didn’t you ever notify me then?” Cyril turned to Barry demandingly. What explained Sylvia doing so much without his knowledge? 

Facing Cyril’s intimidating stare, Barry felt utterly wronged. Many times he had nearly spoken out before Cyril’s forbidding expressions halted him whenever Sylvia’s name even crossed his lips.

“I did try bringing it up occasionally but you would scold me not to ever mention Mrs Tan.‘

Cyril fell silent, acknowledging the accuracy. He had explicitly barred such discussions previously.

“I see.” Remorse flooded Cyril realizing his willful blindness had presumed Sylvia acted from self–interest rather than pure devotion out of love for him.

Approaching his staff chatting animatedly, Cyril paused outside the room hearing Sylvia mentioned and signaled Barry to listen with him.

“We haven’t seen the Missus lately. Last visit, she brought treats and reminded us sternly to make meals a priority for the boss yet we failed completely fulfilling her entrustment this time.” One woman sighed.

“The boss looked awfully unwell yesterday too. Hopefully the Missus drops by again soon or at least calls to check on him.” Another worried. “She always knows how to handle

everything.”

As the stunned team shuddered in dismay, Barry quickly added: “Boss is aware of what was said. Refrain from ever bringing up…that person…before him. Understood?”

“Why?!” One protested. “We used to get scolded but he had no issues this time. They’re still married anyway so what’s the harm in casual mentions? Things seem different lately…”
