"Everyone is hoping Sylvia will come back. I know you're thinking the same, Mom. So, what do you want me to do?"
Michelle was still thinking about the last time Sylvia had dinner. She hadn't really paid attention to what Cyril was saying. Suddenly, he called her, and she was still a bit dazed.
"I don't mean anything. I'm just echoing your sister and grandfather. Of course, it'd be best if you could win her back. But if you can't..."
"Don't kid yourself. Do you really think they'll forgive you for what you've done?"
After a wry laugh from Cyril, Michelle fell silent. Cyril knew he couldn't win Sylvia back. She wouldn't give them another chance.
"You probably don't have anything else to say. So, let me make it clear. Whatever schemes you have in mind, don't disturb Sylvia's life anymore. If you do, don't blame me."
Since Sylvia didn't want to see him anymore, Cyril didn't want his family to bother her either. But after he said that, their expressions turned sour. What Cyril meant was to let everything go back to normal, but they didn't see it that way.
Seeing their silence, Cyril didn't say anything more. Whatever they were thinking, he didn't care anymore.
After giving them a glance, Cyril left. As he reached the door, he received a call from Jonathan. Something seemed off about Jonathan's tone.
"Everyone's telling me to divorce her. What about you? Do you also want me to divorce her?"
