    Chapter 40 Everyone Condemning


    When these statements came out, it shocked everyone. They didn’t expect the truth to be like this


    had they misunderstood Sylvia?


    In no time, public opinion turned against Jonathan. Everyone online was cursing out Jonathan and


    Cyril.


    Although they didn’t really understand how this rted to Cyril, since Sylvia exposed it, it must have


    to do with him.


    So even though Cyril didn’t do anything, because of Jonathan’s reckless actions, he was caught up


    in the online bacsh too.


    The most obvious impact was on both families‘panies, which faced direct consequences.


    Seeing all this, Cyril felt an immense headache. He quickly reacted, apologizing online.


    [Cyril: Regarding Ms. Sylvia’s statements, parts of it are true. The fallout was due to my oversight,


    which led to the severe damage to Sylvia’s reputation. I sincerely apologize here, and will learn from


    this incident and properly ask Jonathan to apologize.]


    Cyril didn’t deny what happened in the past. But in his view, he and Caroline had no other


    rtionship. However, he knew that excessively exining their rtionship online wouldn’t


    convince people.


    Cyril was used to handling things perfectly, never leaving any handles. So he wouldn’t keep


    exining the past, as that could leave more negative impressions.


    He figured Sylvia was furious he didn’t stop Jonathan’s misdeeds despite knowing about them.


    That’s why she exposed everything. But he truly never expected Jonathan’s private


    escapades.


    Although many still cursed Cyril after his apology, his timely response salvaged his


    reputation somewhat. Plus, Cyril had solid business acumen, sobined with PR tactics, his side


    basically avoided further issues.


    While Cyril was fine, things weren’t good for Jonathan at all.


    Seeing the online posts, Jonathan panicked. He admitted being scummy, keeping ties with certain


    women after marriage. But he never outright betrayed his marriage. Yet now his wife asked for


    divorce over this incident!


    Theirs was a business marriage; divorce would damage both families. But his wife requested it


    without hesitation, indicating she found the situationpletely uneptable.


    Since divorce was major, Jonathan expected her family would refuse. But not even 30 minutes after


    the news broke, they called saying they’d terminate all cooperative ventures and partnerships – the


    marriage was over!


    Jonathan was dumbfounded that they actually wanted divorce. Furious that he never wanted


    marriage in the first ce and now had no say in divorce either, he refused to agree no matter


    what.


    His wife’s side was even more nonchnt. Disagree all he wants, they’ll just drag things out until


    the divorce finalized.


    After this incident, Jonathan’s familypany was also greatly impacted, not to mention his own


    reputation lying in tatters. He became the target of public vitriol.


    Everyone online hurled abuse at Jonathan, condemning him for bullying others with a mere photo


    and his past disrespect toward his wife.


    With the photos leaked, Jonathan had a pounding headache. Family and media endlessly called


    demanding what he nned to do.


    Left with no choice, Jonathan ran to Cyril. But apologizing was absolutely impossible.


    “You don’t want to bow your head. You didn’t even verify that photo before releasing it and causing


    this huge mess. Now you don’t want to apologize?” Cyril was shocked hearing Jonathan refuse to


    back down, still convinced he did nothing wrong.


    saw it.


    No matter how Cyril apologizing was Jonathan’s only option now. Yet he clung stubbornly to the


    matter. What’s more, given Sylvia’s other evidence, were Jonathan him, he would never provoke


    Sylvia right now. He would sincerely apologize so the matter could pass, since they were indeed at


    fault first here.


    Hearing Cyril say this, Jonathan stared in disbelief.


    “What nonsense are you spewing?” Jonathon fumed. “Don’t you know I only did this for your sake?


    Did you see Sylvia gloating as if she’d gained some leverage over me? So what if I have to divorce?


    I couldn’t care less about this marriage anyway. And after all she’s put you through, you just


    apologize at the drop of a hat? Aren’t you selling yourself short? I’m telling you, give her an inch


    and she’ll take a mile. You absolutely cannot back down on this!


    Cyril rolled his eyes in exasperation. “Look, if you don’t want to apologize, fine. But


    don’te crying to me. I just managed to smooth things over and now people will use us of


    scheming against Sylvia behind the scenes if you keep this up.”


    “You’ve gone too far. So what if you divorce? You can’t stand to see her suffer a little? And

    now you want me to apologize? I’m telling you there’s no way I’ll apologize for this!” Jonathon was


    dead set on fighting Sylvia to the bitter end, not just for Cyril’s sake, but for his own as well.
