They really didn't initially think this had anything to do with Bonnie. They didn't see how it related to helping you. But turns out, it does.
"If he did this, it means he planned it. So, he wouldn't want you guys finding out. Think about it, did you do anything to offend him?"
Dad's words made the siblings shake their heads. Offend Bonnie? Ridiculous. If anyone was offended, it was probably them. This was all twisted.
"I'll call to find out more. But does Cyril know? If he does, he might side with his sister. Family comes first for him."
Balk wanted to clear things with Cyril. But they knew, with Cyril's loyalty to his sister, it might not go well. They hesitated.
"Why do you guys always complicate things? Can't you find evidence yourselves and confront Bonnie?"
"No need for that. We can just investigate who he's been with. He's in the hospital now, dealing with relationship issues..."
As he finished, he realized the odd timing of the relationship issue. Even if it were real, it didn't seem like something he'd do.
Seeing Sylvia halt mid-sentence, the siblings knew she noticed something. They waited for her to figure it out.
"You guys stay here. I'll handle this. Once I know more, I'll fill you in."
Sylvia smiled when she grasped the situation. Interesting.
She knew Bonnie had issues with her. Keeping quiet didn't mean she was clueless. Now, being blamed for this? If she acted oblivious, that'd be foolish.
