She Quit Her Family and Found Herself novel Chapter 339

By the end of his plea, the little boy was sobbing uncontrollably.

He felt so incredibly wronged. He hadn't done anything. He had even tried to warn Finn, all for the sake of his dad's pride and reputation.

It was Finn who hadn't listened. Finn had taken the trophy and smashed it on purpose. It was entirely Finn's fault. Why was his dad only believing Finn and not him?

Thankfully, Sylvie had seen everything! She could back him up!

Sylvie definitely wouldn't let him take the fall!

Miles tightly gripped Sylvie's hand. "Sylvie, say something! Tell them what you saw... It really wasn't me..."

Herbert looked at Sylvie. "Sylvie, did you see what happened?"

Could it really not have been Miles?

But Finn didn't look like he was lying.

Sylvie's face was slightly pale, her expression full of distress. She bit her lip, seemingly wrestling with herself, before looking down at Miles with a sigh. "Miles, I can't cover for you this time... You made a mistake, and you need to apologize. This is a very serious matter. If I keep covering for you, I'll only be hurting you in the long run."

"Huh... what... Sylvie, what are you talking about?" Miles stared blankly at Sylvie.

He couldn't understand what she meant.

Cover for him?

Hurting him by covering for him?

Making a mistake and needing to apologize?

But he hadn't done anything wrong!

Sylvie looked apologetically at Herbert. "Mr. Jewell, Miles is still just a child. It's normal for kids to be naughty and make mistakes. He just thought the trophy looked pretty and wanted to take a closer look. He didn't break it on purpose..."

"Sylvie..." Miles numbly let go of her hand.

This time, he understood perfectly. Sylvie was saying that he had taken the trophy and he had broken it.
