Chapter 570 How Is She So Vicious
Sylvie ran up to Herbert and wrapped her arms around his as she said, “Hi, Granddad! The doctor said
you should go to bed early, remember?”
Initially, Herbert was going to yell at her, but her sudden disy of affection and concern softened his
heart up.
“I got a call from Gunther earlier. He told me you hired a truck driver to kill someone. Why would you do
such a thing?” he asked while ring at her.
The look in Sylvie''s eyes turned gloomy when she realized someone had ratted her out.
Angered by her response, Herbert shouted, “I''m a soldier, not a gangster! Do you know how much
trouble you could bring your three uncles by doing so? I''ve warned youst time, Sylvie! You promised
you wouldn''t do it again, so why did you go against your word?”
I had thought of teaching Armand a lesson after seeing Sylvie cry because of him, but I didn''t expect
her to go this far! She contacted those people using my name and attacked Central Group with all sorts
of scandals. Not only did she destroy the entire organization, but she also got Armand killed in the
process. My entire life has been spent serving my country. I have never abused my power to do
anything immoral, nor have I allowed my son to collude with businessmen. My wife died of depression
after we lost our second daughter, so I''ve been showering Sylvie with as much love and affection as
possible. I even went as far as helping those businessmen out so Sylvie wouldn''t be bullied in the
entertainment industry! I can''t believe she would end up doing something as cruel as killing people
through hired guns!
Realizing how angry Herbert was, Sylvie patted him on the back as she said, “I''m sorry, Granddad.
Please don''t be mad at me. It''s bad for your health to get angry like this. I didn''t want to do this, but he
forced my hand! You had someone take care of those photographs of mine a while back, remember?
Someone took pictures and videos of me after setting me up. That man is one of the culprits
responsible for it. He kept using the videos to ckmail me for money. I''ve paid him multiple times, but
he just keeps asking for more. He even wanted me to...”
She bit down on her lip as she struggled to continue, “I couldn''t stand him ckmailing me like this,
and I didn''t want that footage to get released as it would bring you and my uncles great shame, so I
hired someone to kill him.”
Herbert wasn''t expecting to hear something so shocking. “Why didn''t you tell me about this?” he asked
with a sigh.
“You''re unwell, so I didn''t want to worry you. The me will be entirely on me if word gets out about
this, so it won''t affect you at all. I wouldn''t have done this if I had a choice, Granddad. Please believe
me!” Sylvie sobbed while leaning against his shoulder.
“There, there... You know I love you too much to me you for this. Don''t worry; I''ll have someone take
care of this. No one will find out that it was you,” Herbertforted her while patting her on the head.
“Thank you, Granddad,” Sylvie said with a sniffle.
Herbert was still sitting in the living room long after Sylvie had gone to bed upstairs.
After what seemed like forever, he let out a sigh and asked his driver, “Juliana had always been
adorable and gentle like her mother, so why did her daughter turn out to be such a vicious and cold-

hearted person?”
“Maybe Ms. Sylvie took after her father instead. This isn''t entirely her fault, though. Those people were
pushing it way too far,” replied the driver.
While I don''t condone Sylvie''s use of such underhanded methods, she is all that my daughter has left
behind in this world, so I can''t just sit by and watch her get hurt.
Herbert could only let out a sigh at the thought of that.
