Chapter 54


    Chapter 54 The Same Old Refrain


    Bulk knew his sister well enough to It was the typical understanding between siblings orchestrate


    this meeting, but not to set her up on a blind date. After one bad marriage, he had no desire to push


    her into another. Instead, he felt she should remain safe at home, inheriting the familypany.


    With their brothers to protect her, she could live a blissful


    life.


    Mike recalled Bulk’s words before leaving the house that day and felt a headacheing on.


    “Here’s the deal: Bulk didn’t arrange any business for you. He just mentioned that he’ll be starting


    his concert tour next month and wants you there. He’s got you a front–row seat.


    And well, that night your identity might be revealed Bulk’s beentely, a bit… hesitant, you know.”


    that you’re his sister. You know how


    Although Bulk had insisted on privacy at the beginning of his career, not wanting his sister caught in


    the limelight, that incident three years back had really set him off, driving him to want to pull her into


    his fold more than ever.


    Sylvia couldn’t help but chuckle at the absurdity – there was nothing much to fuss about, her identity


    woulde out eventually.


    “Okay, I got it. Is there anything else?”


    After pausing, Mike decided to give Sylvia a heads–up even though he hadn’t nned on telling


    her. “There’s another thing. Yesterday, Katrina’s agent called me, hoping to set her up as a guest at


    the concert. I initially refused, but Bulk agreed. It seems he’s doing this to vent your anger toward


    her.”

    Mike didn’t mention that Bulk had already collected all sorts of dirt on Katrina, intent on bringing her


    down. It was all to shield Sylvia; she didn’t need to know the details, just that Bulk had been


    harboring a grudge against Katrina for a long time.


    Sylvia blinked in disbelief. She hadn’t expected her brother to go to such lengths.


    “Katrina attending Bulk’s concert as a guest? Doesn’t she know her limits? Barely managing


    acting, now she wants to show up at a concert?”


    Regardless of her confusion, Bulk had made his decision. And the purpose of this concert wasn’t to


    mingle with the likes of Katrina.


    “I mean, using his concert to drag Katrina down… Isn’t that a bit much? Bulk’s a global superstar;


    he doesn’t need to stoop so low.”


    Despite feeling it might not be worth the fallout, Sylvia considered whether she should try

    convincing Bulk otherwise. But considering how he hadn’t


    calmed down since that incident three years ago, would he even listen?


    “You know how hardheaded your brother is. Once he’s decided, there’s no changing his mind. He’s


    already confirmed with them, probably going to officially announce it next week or just before the


    concert. I don’t know why Katrina is doing this, but Bulk will not let this I chance to teach her a


    lesson slip by. He has always been willful. This isn’t the first time he’s


    stirred the pot.”


    Her friend’s words rang true.


    “Sylvia, what are you doing?”


    In the midst of her thoughts about Bulk’s ns, Sylvia was interrupted by an angry voice behind her.


    Turning, she saw Cyril approaching with Jonathan trailing behind, wearing a look of eager


    anticipation to see Sylvia’s misfortune.

    Sylvia was at a loss for words why did she bump into Cyril and Jonathan everywhere she went?


    And every time, Cyril seemed to forget that they no longer had anything to do with


    each other.


    “What are you doing? Do you know who this is? You’re here dining with him, are you that desperate


    to associate with anyone?”


    Cyril could hardly contain his fury. Even though he knew Sylvia’s presence here could merely be a


    friend’s meetup or something of that sort, the sight of her with another man ignited a possessive


    rage as if something precious was being snatched away.


    “Are you crazy? Who I associate with is none of your business. We have nothing to do with each


    other anymore. Let’s get this straight – we’re divorced. I am free to socialize or befriend whoever I


    want. If you can’t handle it, I wouldn’t mind teaching you a lesson, in


    case Jonathan’s teachable moments weren’t clear enough.”This is property ? of N?velDrama.Org.


    Sylvia wondered if Cyril was just unbearable with a free schedule after she snagged that project


    from him. Why else would he be so obsessed with her?


    Cyril paled, confronted again with the reality that they had no rtionship. Yet, when she repeated


    those words, it still unsettled him; they didn’t have to be foes.


    “You’re doing this on purpose, aren’t you? Just because you can’t stand what Jonathan is doing.


    He’s apologized. If there’s anything you’re unsatisfied with, I’m sure we can…‘


    “What can you do,pensate me? If I was after your money, why did I leave without taking a dime


    in the divorce? You know all I wanted was to escape our rtionship, and

    nothing more.”


    Sylviaid out her stance with a steely re. Did Cyril honestly think she was in need of money?


    Not likely. If there was anything Sylvia wasn’tcking, it was bucks.
