Chapter 194


    Chapter 194: Contest


    They started a conversation, talking about work–rted matters. Originally, they had nned to


    chat with Silvia, but seeing her and Miles engrossed in business discussions, Kate and Miranda


    quietly walked away. These two were really crazy, clearly out here to rx in the snow, yet still


    thinking about work. When the two of them got together, nobody knew who was right or wrong.


    “Do you think they’re showing great teamwork? We’re all out here to have fun in the snow and rx,


    but they’re still discussing business matters. And look at them, they’re clearly vying for dominance.


    Neither of them can convince the other.”


    Miranda nced back and saw Silvia and Miles in that situation. There was nothing much to say.


    The original purpose ofing out together was to rx, of course, and to respond to Miles‘


    suggestion. But seeing them discussing business matters together, it was a bit unexpected for


    them.


    “Isn’t it great? Putting all your focus on business, I think it’s great. If things aren’t going well in your


    personal life, at least let your career flourish. I don’t know why you’re so anxious to push them to do


    something. Silvia has her own thoughts. I don’t think there’s any need to rush.”


    Kate shrugged. She didn’t care much about rtionships and hadn’t even thought about getting


    married in the future. So when Silvia put her mind into her business, she agreed with it. Even now,


    she didn’t really want Silvia to immediately get involved in another rtionship. It was better to


    focus on work for now, and as for other things, they could be consideredter.


    Miranda thought about it and realized it made sense. But they thought Miles was a nice person and


    worth getting to know, so they wanted Silvia to interact with him more. Whether there was any other


    meaning behind it depended on the two of them.


    “What are you doing here?”


    As they chatted slowly, they finally reached the mountaintop. There were quite a few people out


    here for mountain climbing, most of them here for pics and barbecues. They were prepared for it


    as well. As soon as they reached the top, someone came to greet them. But they didn’t expect to


    encounter a group of people they didn’t want to see here.

    Cyril and his good friends were also here.


    Jonathan even had two skewers of barbecue in his hand.


    Seeing Cyril, Duncan’spetitive spirit was ignited. He went straight to Cyril’s front and looked at


    him impatiently from head to toe. He couldn’t understand why just because of this face, he was


    compared unfavorably. It was so infuriating.


    Cyril had seen this group of people before, not as Silvia’s husband, but he had met them with this


    group in the mall before. But Kate was someone he had met before, and his rtionship with Silvia


    was quite good. They had even argued because Kate’s appearance was too neutral.


    Cyril nced around and locked eyes with Silvia, who was discussing business matters with Miles


    at the back of the crowd. He had to admit, when she was seriously working, both men and women


    looked exceptionally handsome and charming. So at this moment, Silvia was exceptionally


    charming in Cyril’s eyes. He remembered the days gone by and felt he should have observed her


    more carefully.


    “What are you thinking?”


    Miles also noticed Cyril’s gaze on Silvia, and it seemed a bit unusual, so he asked.


    “Nothing, just didn’t expect such a thing to happen. It’s quite unlucky.”


    They were quite happy on the way here, but encountering Cyril here made their mood sour


    instantly.


    In fact, both sides were unhappy about suddenly bumping into each other. Whether it was Cyril or


    Silvia, they couldn’t muster a smile.


    Jonathan saw the close rtionship between Silvia and Miles and nced at the man beside him.


    Cyril’s expression was unusually dark.


    “I really don’t know what you’re thinking. Some women always want something else, without


    considering whether they deserve it.”


    Jonathan’s words hit Cyril right where it hurt. He couldn’t say anything back, and he had to admit


    that he was indeed going through a divorce recently.


    He was indeed entangled with the women outside, but only the few of them knew about it.


    Now that it was known by this group of people with Silvia, it was torture.


    “We should have investigated thoroughly before going out today. If we knew you would be here, we


    definitely wouldn’t have chosen toe here. In my opinion, we should all go to an amusement


    park or something.”


    Theypletely disregarded the reactions of the others and expressed their disdain unreservedly.


    They didn’t know how to put it.


    Jonathan was quite angry, but didn’t know what to say. Unfortunately, whenever they spoke, they


    could urately hit his sore spots.


    Cyril didn’t pay attention to what they were saying. He just stared at Silvia, as if trying to see


    through her.


    “What are you looking at?”


    Silvia looked calmly at Cyril. She didn’t think there was anything wrong with what their friends were


    saying, and what they said was quite correct.


    “So, are you already with Miles now? We’ve only just separated, and you’ve already chosen the


    next one. Will you not be with him for long before moving on to someone else again?


    “1


    Silvia wasn’t that kind of person, and her previous love was very passionate, which everyone knew.


    But just because this love wouldn’t fall on him again, Cyril couldn’t ept it.


    So he resorted to such words to insult Silvia, trying to make her angry. But he underestimated


    Silvia. When she heard these words, she showed no expression on her face, a bit puzzled, as if she


    didn’t quite understand why Cyril would say such things,
