Chapter 121


    Chapter 121: Banquet


    Bonnie had been staying in the hospital for over two months, and during this time, she had be


    more subdued. Since thest encounter with Cyril, he had directly canceled her bank card.


    At that moment, Bonnie understood that Cyril was serious this time. He truly cared about Silvia, and


    it was because of her own actions that Cyril had canceled her bank card, trying to make her


    behave.


    If it were any other matter, Bonnie might have let it slide, but the fact that this was rted to Silvia


    made it hard for Bonnie to swallow her pride.


    She had been diligently resting and recuperating over these two months, but her resentment


    towards Silvia only grew stronger.


    “There’s a banquet tonight, your brother will attend. I know things haven’t been great between you


    twotely, but you’re siblings after all, bound by blood. Go to this banquet with your brother and try


    not to cause him any trouble.”


    Michelle was aware of the issues between the siblings, feeling a headacheing on. She didn’t


    know


    what to do.


    Her son hadn’t lived with her since he was young, so some resentment was normal, but this matter


    seemed to be affecting their family life. Michelle wanted to take this opportunity for the siblings to


    talk


    and resolve their conflicts.


    A hint of resentment shed in Bonnie’s eyes. She didn’t want to attend any banquet, and she knew


    Cyril didn’t want anything to do with her anymore. He was just doing it for appearances.


    “I understand, Mom. I’ll talk things out with my brother and won’t let you worry anymore. But will


    Silvia attend this banquet?”


    Michelle frowned. Despite her daughter’s softened attitude, why did she have to bring up Silvia, that


    infuriating woman?


    Bonnie carefully watched Michelle’s reaction. Seeing her growing impatient, she quickly exined,


    “Mom, I didn’t mean anything else. I’m just concerned that there might be other issues at the


    banquet. If Silvia is there, I can help my brother handle any problems.”


    That sounded reasonable. After thinking for a moment, Michelle said, “It’s possible she’ll attend. Her


    company is doing quite well.”


    Upon hearing Michelle’s words, Bohnie’s resentment towards Silvia deepened. Why did Silvia


    always seem to get all the good things?


    Despite her thoughts, Bonnie didn’t


    witche continued to portray her delicate demeanor, promising to


    behave well at the banquet and help Cyril.


    Michelle felt somewhat relieved. After helping Bonnie with her discharge procedures, she left the


    rest to her staff.


    Tonight’s banquet gathered many important figures. Almost everyone who was anyone was present.


    I didnt have toe to this banquet today. Big brother, you could have handled this


    matter yourself


    Silvia felt a headacheing on at suchrge gatherings. Though she had returned to the family.


    understanding her role as the heir meant attending such events would be routine. However,


    she wasn’t keen on them, so she would avoid them whenever possible.


    Bruce, hearing Silvia’s words, wasn’t pleased. “Wasn’t cooperating with the Southern Group what


    you’ve always wanted? The person in charge is already here. You can’t just tell me you don’t want


    toe when


    we’re at the door.”


    Hearing Bruce’s response, Silvia didn’t argue further. She had indeed been wanting to establish ties


    with the Southern Group’s leadership. Since they were already here, she had no reason to refuse.


    So Silvia shrugged casually, her tone light,pletely different from her earlierints. “Well,


    alright.


    I was just talking nonsense.”


    Bruce shook his head helplessly and extended his arm for Silvia to hold onto as they entered the


    banquet hall together.


    The two of them, a handsome man and a beautiful woman, attracted almost everyone’s attention as


    they


    entered, including Cyril’s.


    Cyril watched the woman entering through the door, feeling his heart race. The uncontroble


    sensation left him oddly infatuated and immersed.


    “Oh my god, is that Silvia? It feels like it’s been ages since Ist saw her, and she looks even better


    now.”


    Jonathan trailed behind Cyril. He had been talking to others just now, but when he turned around,


    he was shocked to see Silvia standing


    Under the spotlight.


    They indeed hadn’t seen each other for a long time, but it seemed Silvia had changed again since


    their


    Silvia’s transformation was astounding, surprising everyone each time they saw her.

    Just standing there, she seemed to be the center of the world’s attention. Everyone, regardless of


    gender, couldn’t help but focus on her, as if doing so would earn them a bit of her favor.


    Jonathan swallowed hard. He used to think Silvia being with Cyril was embarrassing, but now he


    realized he had been too narrow–minded. He had never noticed this side of Silvia before.


    “If we had realized earlier that Silvia was different, would things between you two be different now?”


    Jonathan’s unintentional remark dropped like a pebble into Cyril’s calm mind, causing ripples.


    Yeah, if they had realized Silvia was different earlier, would everything be different now?


    “Hey, why so quiet? Oh wait, isn’t the man she’s holding onto Bruce? When did she be so


    close with Bruce? It’s not easy to get involved with the Ivan Group.”


    Jonathan noticed that Silvia was tightly holding onto Bruce’s arm.


    Although he didn’t know the exact nature of their rtionship, this scene made people wonder.


    Chapter 121: Banquet


    Jonathan nced at the man beside him, letting out a soft sigh.


    In terms of appearance, the two men were evenly matched, but when it came to keeping a clean


    record, Cyril couldn’tpare to Bruce.


    If Silvia were to choose someone else, it wouldn’t be so surprising.


    However, since the man next to him was his good brother, Jonathan wouldn’t say anything out of


    line. Yet, he couldn’t help but feel sorry for his brother.


    “Well, in situations like this, ordinary people wouldn’t be able to enter the banquet. Maybe she just


    wanted to get close to Bruce by any means necessary. After all, he’s just like that. We’ve known


    each other for so


    many years…


    “What kind of person is she, really?”


    Cyril turned to Jonathan, gazing earnestly at him. He had never asked before, but what did the


    people around them think of Silvia?
