After Divorce She Becomes the Billionaire Heiress (Sylvia and Cyril) novel Chapter 60

Chapter 60 It’s You 

Sylvia led a surprise visit to Ward’s company with her team in tow. Ward was caught off- guard, in the midst of a meeting about securing the partnership, when he was told Sylvia and her entourage had come to assess the placeThe stakes were clear: pass the inspection and the partnership would proceed; fail, and it was all over.

Ward was anxious, having no idea what Sylvia planned to inspect. He trailed behind her, watching nervously as she examined everything scrupulously, even plucking leaves from the potted plants they passed. Once they settled in the office, Sylvia didn’t press about the partnership. Instead, she casually inquired about how things had been and what they had been discussing earlier.

Ward explained everything candidly. There was a time when, as a street punk, he had run into Sylvia’s brothers and endured a heavy reprimand from them. Since then, he’d known Sylvia wasn’t someone to be taken lightly.

“Can you give it to me straight? If there’s something about what we do that you’re not impressed with, you can tell me. I can handle it,” Ward finally said, bordering on desperation.

Sylvia paused, then laughed softly. “Calm down. The partnership will continue. I’m here to see for myself what’s going on. Franklycompared to other companies the Ivans work with, you’re small. But I’m willing to give you a chanceThe plan you submitted impressed me, and that’s why I’m here. Nowyou need to convince not just me, but the critics I’ve brought along. And let me warn you–they’re excellent at finding faults. If you can handle them, consider our partnership secure.

Ward knew his company wasn’t the usual caliber Sylvia partnered with, but her willingness to give them this chance spurred him on. He was ready to give it his all.

After the meeting, as Ward busied himself addressing the feedback, Sylvia stepped out to make a call to BruceThey’d received news this morning that Cyril wanted to partner with Ward, and Sylvia was determined not to let Cyril secure the deal without a fight. Besides, why should Cyril get first dibs on working with Ward?

Perhaps there was a hint of retaliation in her actions; after all, the past three years hadn’t been easyIt wouldn’t sit right with her to just let bygones be bygones without making things at least a bit difficult for Cyril.

Sylvia’s next stop was to check out the rest of the company. Despite its modest size, the overall vibe was promising.

Juliet arrived latecarrying a stack of documents which she handed to SylviaThis is from your brother. There’s an inspection at the mall this afternoonand he wants you to oversee it,” Juliet explained. The files detailed promotional event featuring Sylvia’s second brother, aiming to make a splash with this year’s concert by starting with today’s showcase.

Realizing that this meant her brother was expecting a large turnout, Sylvia couldn’t help but dread the chaos that might ensue. No wonder Bruce wanted her to be there.

As Sylvia and Juliet approached the mallthey didn’t announce themselves, choosing to blend in as ordinary shoppers. On a usual day, the mall wouldn’t be this crowded – but today, Brock’s presence transformed it into a bustling hub.

Having attended several of Brock’s concerts before, they expected the energy, but the sheer scale of the excitement still startled them as they arrived.

“Goodness, imagine if this was at a bigger venue like a stadiumthe fans would swarm your brother!” Juliet whispered, loudly enough for Sylvia to hear despite the din.
