Chapter 150: Sense of Crisis
“What do you think of the person your big brother set your up with? He’s been into your slice
childhood, you know? Then there was that thealty with Cyll, a lot of it was because of you. Butter
on, realizing you might be stuck in the middle, he hacked off and went abroad Now seeing each
other apain, how do you feel?”
Usually, my big brother isn’t this nosy, Who got him into this?
Sylda felt a headacheing on. She saw Juliet staring at her with possip written all over her face,
making her headache worse.
“It’s been so many years since we’ve seen each other, what’s there to teel? Right now, my priority is
sorting out thepany’s collidiorations, other matters well, they’re not on my radar. Plus, I didn’t
even recognize him back then, and now I’m even less likely to. You two are making this really
awkward for ine,”
Syhia thought the guy cane to discuss business, so she brashed it off casually at first at Later, she
realized things weren’t that simple. Her two brothers were reallypleating things for her.
“All of this is your brothers‘ thoughtful concern. Anyway, you can think about itter. But it’s true he
likes you, and now that you‘ re divorced, you’ve por to consider other options. He’ll probably keep
pursuing you for a while. Now, let’s talk about thepany’s matters. Frank’s enmpany, Juliet has
briefed me. If we don’t coborate, so be it, but you have to find anotherpany, Otherwise, our
people will need exnations. And how about the situation with the subsidiary?”
“It’s almost sorted. There are still a few puppeteers behind the scenes we haven’t caught yet. Once
we grab them, I’ll be mostly done. As for the coboration, I’m already considering it. Don’t worry,
I’ve got things under control.”
With the personal stuff out of the way, Sylvia breathed a sigh of relief and started discussing the
recent state of thepany seriously.
After discussingpany matters, the siblings hung up. Sylvia put down her phone and looked at
Juliet. “Did you secretly inform me about what’s been happeningtely?”
“Oh,e on, don’t me me! Your brother bombarded me with too much information. Plus, you
know how irresistible he is when he’s right in front of me. So, I had to spill the beans, sorry about
that. How about I treat you to dinner?”
Jubet hadn’t expected Sylvia to catch on so quickly, leaving her with no escape. She had to
awkwardly blurt out these words.
“Never mind, let’s not talk about this anymore. It’s not that big eta deal”
Even if it wasn’t Benjamin today, it would’ve been someone else. So, fussing over this didn’t make
sense at all.
Anyway, once thepany matters were settled, she’d be out of here soon. It wouldn’t be wise to
burn bridges now, especially since no one had done anything out of line. Let it be for now, future
matters could be dealt with in the future.
However, Sylvia had underestimated the situation a bit. The incident where Bark beat someone up
had been trending for days, putting her in the spotlight as well.
So, when Sylvia and Benjamin had dinner together, the media caught wind and spread the news
online, Coincidentally, Barry saw it.
Barry felt uneasy seeing the news. Just as he was about in pot away his phone, Cyril’s voice
sounded from behind him.
“Let me see your phone.”
Startled by the sudden voice of the l
the big boss, Barryplied, handing over his phone along with the news article. Cyril looked at the
online buzz expressionlessly. No one knew what he was thinking, especially Barry, who was now
even more nervous…

Barry couldn’t help butin inwardly. What kind of dead–end question was that?
Compatibility? What’s the use of that now? They’re divorced! If you’re feeling jealous and insecure
now, why didn’t you do something earlier?
Though he was thinking all of this, he didn’t dare say a word. He nervously replied, “Those online
talks must have poor eyesight. Benjamin isn’t a good guy.1 when he was against us weren’t noble,
it’s just that there’s noparison now. If there was, they’d surely think you, boss, are better, more
compatible.” “You make a point. Find a way for me to meet Sylvia”
The things he did
Cyril did feel a hint of crisis. Back then, when he was at odds with Benjamin, part of it was because
of Sylvia, Knowing their rtionship wasn’t great, it not unfamiliar, it was Benjamin’s actions that
fueled his anger towards Sylvia.
Now that this guy was reappearing, Cyril felt he needed to be cautious about him more than anyone
else
So, he had to find a way to appear in front of Sy and make sure she focused on him. As for
Benjamin, he needed to stay on the sidelines.
He hadn’t realized how difficult his request was expecting Sylvia to meet him when she clearly
didn’t want to
Barry felt helpless. He wanted to say something, but Cyril didn’t give him the chance, walking
away.
As Cyril walked farther away, Barry felt even worse. Meeting Sylvia, now he had to figure out how to
do that. It wasn’t as simple as taking a car home like before. Even getting an appointment wasn’t
guaranteed now,
And Syria, she probably didn’t want to meet Cyril right now.
But he had to follow the boss’s orders. Barry had no choice but to try to arrange a meeting with
Sylvia in thepany’s name, but whether it would seed was uncertain.
