Cyril didn't catch the implication behind Silvia's words and didn't say much more. After nodding, he left.
Not long after Cyril left, the door of the room was pushed open again, much to Silvia's surprise. She thought it was Cyril again, but to her surprise, it was Miranda and Duncan.
Obviously, Duncan wanted to visit Silvia but didn't want to come alone, fearing Silvia would be unhappy. So, this time he brought Miranda along.
Seeing both of them here made Silvia very happy, and she smiled at them.
"I've been in the hospital for so long, and neither of you came to see me. Why did you suddenly decide to come today? It's not like you two."
Silvia looked perfectly healthy, with no issues at all.
She wondered what rumors were spreading outside, making it seem like she was on death's door, about to meet God.
"We're usually very busy with work. It's not easy to find time to come and see you. But when we heard those rumors about you being on your deathbed, we got really worried and decided to come check on you. Seeing that you're fine now, we can report back to them. They're also very worried about you, but work has been keeping us occupied."
After Miranda sat down, she picked up a piece of fruit and started eating without offering any to Silvia. Silvia remained calm and used to Miranda taking her own things.
"I don't know what our brothers are thinking, but it doesn't matter. If it's their arrangement, then I won't say anything. They're all quite shrewd, so there's no need for us to worry."
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became tense when Duncan mentioned Cyril. Duncan's eyes flashed with a hint of paranoia. It was clear to everyone that he liked Silvia, and his words seemed somewhat accusatory.
Silvia felt conflicted. It seemed that whenever something involved Cyril, her brothers would always think she had feelings for him, no matter how much she denied it or how much she distanced herself from him. This contradiction made Silvia uneasy.
"You don't need to be so nervous. I'm not stupid enough to let things go that far. I know what to do and what not to do."
