After Divorce She Becomes the Billionaire Heiress (Sylvia and Cyril) novel Chapter 59

Chapter 59 Fair Competition… Yeah Right 

Sylvia understood why Ward was so insistent. His parents had died in a house collapse due to shoddy construction, so now that he was in charge, he’d never allow such a tragedy to happen again. Sylvia trusted him completely.

“I trust you to handle this, and I’m willing to give you this chance. Just don’t let me down,” Sylvia said with a smile. Ward let out a sigh of relief but then Sylvia posed another question.

“I heard you were approached by another new company yesterday morning. They’re not in construction, but tech–more aligned with what our company might be interested in for the future. If we were to enter tech development, who would you choose to partner with?”

Sylvia knew about this because Cyril’s company, notorious for their astuteness, was the one wanting to collaborate with Ward. Now she was curious – under these circumstances, who would Ward choose?

Ward caught the hidden meaning in Sylvia’s question – was there a hint of competition, even a whiff of hostility? In front of everyone, Ward knew he couldn’t be explicit, so he stayed vague.

“Even though we’re small, I believe in fair competition. If the Ivans can offer more, no one would refuse a partnership with them.”

But honestly, Ward thought, was there any real choice? There was no genuine competition – his loyalty was squarely with Sylvia.

Sylvia grinned, thrilled by Ward’s answer. “Good, I hope we have more chances to

collaborate. Don’t disappoint. A decision that could revive your company isn’t a bad one at

all.”

Relieved, Ward was glad Sylvia wasn’t fixating on the potential conflict of interest.

With that, Ward’s team left and Sylvia headed off with Juliet. Midway, Juliet received a call from an unfamiliar number–it was Cyril’s assistant.

“What’s this about?” Juliet asked.

“I’ll pass

this on to my boss. If you’re serious about collaborating, I expect you’ll be prepared,” Juliet said before ending the call.

“It’s Cyril’s lot. They want to partner on driverless tech, but I’m puzzled–didn’t Cyril’s company already start a project and secure a partner? Why suddenly propose collaboration with us?” Juliet wondered.
