After Divorce She Becomes the Billionaire Heiress (Sylvia and Cyril) novel Chapter 71

Chapter 71 Making Her Comply

Cyril’s assistant, named Jack, usually helped handle business affairs and occasionally dealt with Bonnie’s requests as well. After all, Bonnie was Cyril’s sister, and despite any disappointment he might have felt, Cyril couldn’t completely ignore his sister’s welfare.

During the meeting, aware that Bonnie had come to see him and wanting to prevent any mischief, Cyril had called Jack in to keep an eye on her.

Bonnie looked at Jack with hopeful eyes. “Jack, there’s something I need help with. Make it happen and I’ll make sure my brother gives you a raise.‘

She was confident about Jack’s assistance, whatever the task, she knew he would find a way. She needed to understand which charity gala Sylvia was planning to attend, whether or not she could also go, and what her role would be–an array of details best learned from a direct

source, 

Hearing Bonnie’s request, Jack felt a headache coming on. He had helped Cyril resolve

several of Bonnie’s past issues, and each time, the trouble seemed to grow exponentially. After sorting out each of her messes, it felt like he aged seven or eight years. Now, hearing her ask for another favor, Jack’s head ached in anticipation.

Swallowing hard, Jack put on an awkward face, unsure of how to proceed without the boss’s permission.

“I’m not sure how to help here, Bonnie. Without the boss’s orders, it’s not appropriate for me to get involved. Why don’t you ask him directly? Some things are easier for him to handle,” he cautiously tried to deflect.

Bonnie’s expression darkened upon seeing Jack’s reluctance. She glared at him and threatened, “Oh really? If you won’t help me, I’ll just tell my brother to fire you!”

Jack, however, wasn’t perturbed by her threat. If he really could be fired that easily, he wildn’t have worked at Cyril’s side for so long, and he was confident he could land an even

alem where. Perhaps it was time Bonnie learned a lesson?

“I’il- it again—if you need my help, you should discuss it with the boss. As long as he agrees, I have no objections,” Jack maintained his stance.

“I simply want to ask you something, is it necessary to go over your head to my brother?” Bonnie chided. “He mentioned attending a charity gala – does he need a date for it? Can I go with him? As his date?”

Realizing she still needed Jack’s assistance, Bonnie swallowed her fury, softening her tone

she addressed him again. 

Jack initially thought Bonnie was going to ask him to do something outrageous again, but it turns out she just wanted information about the charity gala. It wasn’t too much trouble, although he wasn’t quite sure about the details of bringing a date.

“Generally, you can bring a date to a charity gala, but the boss never seemed interested in attending such events before, so I’m not sure if he plans to bring Liberty this time. If you’re looking to attend, you might want to check directly with the boss. I think he’d be open to it.”

Jack spoke earnestly. As long as Bonnie didn’t stir up trouble for Cyril, there shouldn’t be a problem, but that was a big ‘if‘. 

embarrassing it would be for him at the gala–if he even got in–and she found the thought amusing.

Mentioning Sylvia put jack on guard. He knew all too well what Bonnie and Michelle were capable of, having seen Sylvia on the receiving end of their bullying
