Chapter 15
This time, she really panicked.
The car came to a stop in front of the Velazquez family’s gate, and she hurriedly got out of the car.
The servant didn’t have time to greet her, so she went straight upstairs.
“Sergio, where were you?”
“Why didn’t you come to see me?”
She made a lot of noise in the villa for a long time, but she didn’t see Sergio’s figure. In the end, it was still under the guidance of another servant that she arrived at the door of Sylvia’s room.
Thinking of Sylvia, Miriam’s heart inexplicably twitched.
Yes, what beats in her chest now is Sylvia’s heart.
No wonder, thinking of Sylvia, it couldn’t help but feel heartache.
She knocked on the door, but there was no response for a long time.
She had always been cherished by Sergio in the past years, and had never experienced such neglect.
She slightly intensified the knocking sound with a touch of displeasure.
“Sergio, open the door, I know you’re inside.”
“Why wouldn’t you see me? What happened in the end!”
“Are you trying to shift all the blame onto me just because Sylvia had an accident?”
“I know you feel uncomfortable about Sylvia’s death, but it’s not our fault, it’s the doctor’s fault…
I…”
The words were not finished yet when the door banged open.
The surroundings instantly became as cold as an ice cellar, and Sergio’s complexion turned ev more terrifyingly gloomy.
“Enough!”
She had never imagined that one day Sergio would speak to her so harshly, with such indifference and cruelty, something she had never seen before.
Miriam was stunned for a while before she snapped out of it, as she met his cold and arrogant gaze.
She trembled as she approached, wanting to grab his hand.

But the next second, her hand was forcefully thrown away.
Miriam’s hand was slammed against the wall, causing her to instinctively furrow her brows in pain.
And all the patience vanished in that instant.
She looked at Sergio displeased.
“What do you mean exactly? So now, you’re getting angry with me because of a stranger?”
“Sergio, you didn’t fall in love with Sylvia, did you?”
Sergio was stunned. It took him quite a while to digest this sentence. Did he fall in love with Sylvia?
Like? Did he fall in love with Sylvia?
Maybe, as she ran towards him time and time again, as she accompanied him every moment, as she was willing to give up all her dignity for him, he had already fallen in love with her, but he refused to admit it, and he didn’t want to admit it either.
Until this moment, he could finally say those words firmly.
Yes, he had already fallen in love with her.
Sergio lifted his head and looked at Miriam again.
“I loved her.”
Miriam, upon hearing those three words, felt as if she had heard the most ridiculous joke.
She laughed bitterly, unwillingly with anger.
“Lie, you lied, how could you possibly fall in love with her!”
