After Divorce She Becomes the Billionaire Heiress (Sylvia and Cyril) novel Chapter 50

Chapter 50 His attitude

The day after collapsing from the overseas deals falling through, Jonathan’s father fainted again upon waking and hearing more bad news. He was already overwhelmed trying to salvage both domestic and foreign businesses. He couldn’t believe so much fell apart

overnight.

He wanted to ask Cyril for help but found him even busier, not intending to meet at all.

Finally, Jonathan cornered Cyril after work, unable to endure anymore.

“Instead of bothering me, think about resolving this yourself,” Cyril replied bluntly. “You brought it on with your offensive behavior last night.”

Though unaware of the exact details from the gala, Cyril knew enough from the aftermath about Jonathan’s inappropriate actions. Bruce’s retaliation made sense.

“But you never said anything when I bullied Sylvia before,” Jonathan argued. “Now you’re suddenly defending her over our years of brotherhood? Don’t tell me you regret how you treated her after the divorce. I’m telling you any regret is pointless. Sylvia is in this situation now regardless, and it’s got nothing to do with you!”

Cyril looked at Jonathan strangely. “What are you talking about? I never let you mistreat her. That was your own doing, so don’t blame me for it.”

“But your

attitude conveyed approval of how I acted,” Jonathan insisted. “You made it clear she didn’t matter to you either way. If it wasn’t for that, who would have treated her like this?”

Jonathan’s words gave Cyril pause as he carefully considered his past behavior towards Sylvia. He hadn’t thought anything was wrong with his treatment of her. But if even Jonathan was criticizing him, could his attitude have been an issue?

Reflecting back, he mostly disregarded Sylvia, keeping her at arm’s length. Those around him read his emotions clearly. Once they sensed her unimportance to him, their treatment of her changed accordingly. So was he largely responsible for her suffering today?

Cyril’s expression darkened at the prospect. It had never occurred to him that his indifference could spur so many consequences.

Seeing Cyril’s sudden displeasure, Jonathan worried about having spoken out of turn. ” What’s wrong? Did I say something incorrect? You don’t need to take it so seriously. You didn’t consider her worth caring about when you married anyway…”

“Regardless of how I saw her, Sylvia was still my wife,” Cyril interjected.
