Chapter 131: Is She Crazy?
For a moment there, Sylvia couldn’t help but wonder if Karina was losing her marbles. Their relationship was already on shaky ground to begin with.
Plus, hadn’t they covered all this ground before? They had made themselves clear. So, what was the point. of continuing this conversation today?
“I think there’s really nothing left for us to discuss. Instead of coming to me to rehash old topics, have you thought about how to quickly get out of this mess? Being embroiled in scandals isn’t exactly great for your career as an actress. It’s practically torpedoed your future, hasn’t it?”
For a long time, their relationship had been akin to that of enemies. So, when they spoke, it was like wielding sharp knives, piercing each other’s soft spots.
After Sylvia finished speaking, Karina noticeably fell silent, her expression turning sour. But being in a professional setting, there were things she couldn’t say, which ended up working in Sylvia’s favor.
Knowing Karina had nothing more to say, Sylvia chuckled. “Seems like you’ve figured it out. If you’re here to talk about Cyril, I advise against it. My stance is pretty clear. Don’t involve me in your drama anymore.”
With that said, Sylvia took out her phone, sent a few messages, and left. After all, there were other things to attend to. She couldn’t spend all her time here.
As for Karina, she stood there watching Sylvia leave.
Despite feeling indignant, Karina had to admit that since Sylvia chose to leave and let go of everything with Cyril, Sylvia had changed. She wasn’t dwelling on the past anymore; her focus was on the present
The Sylvia now wasn’t the same woman Karina used to disdain. She had become even more impressive, making Karina feel envious.
But just as Sylvia had pointed out, Karina was deeply entangled in scandals now, almost ruining her entire
future.
Especially since she had offended Cyril. If she wanted to stand firm in this industry, regain her previous. resources and status, she needed to make some sacrifices.
Realizing this, Karina turned back to her work, ready to continue. However, as soon as she did, she was met with Cyril’s somewhat displeased and guarded gaze.
“What were you talking to her about just now?”
Cyril’s protective tone caught Karina off guard, leaving her unsure of what to say.
Cyril was indeed a good person. If he cared about you, he would hold your feelings close to his heart. But if you meant nothing to him, nothing you did would faze him.
“Do you think I’d hurt Sylvia? You needn’t worry. She’s doing better now than you think.”
Karina’s words pained her deeply. Regardless of her relationship with Sylvia, she was genuinely sincere towards Cyril.
Chapte 131.1. She Crazy?
Unfortunately, things didn’t turn out as expected.
Cyril narrowed his eyes slightly, not entirely believing Karina’s words.
Over time, he had come to realize that most of the harm Sylvia suffered was a result of his favoritism
towards Karina
While Karina might not directly harm Sylvia, she always found ways to hurt her, something Cyril had never noticed before.
“Whether you harm Sylvia or not, I warn you, if you dare to do anything to hurt her, I’ll make you regret it. What you have now isn’t easy to come by. Don’t ruin everything you’ve worked so hard for.”
“You weren’t like this before. Why, now suddenly you feel like you’ve hurt her and want to make it up to her by destroying everything I have?”
“I won’t do such a thing. Regardless, your future is in your own hands. I just don’t want her to suffer any more harm.”
Cyril didn’t want to be ruthless. If Karina couldn’t correct her attitude, then he would indeed take some
measures
At this moment, Cyril seemed particularly distant to Karina. She should have noticed that Cyril’s feelings towards Sylvia had changed.
“I know I’m not foolish. I know what’s best for me now. No need for you to remind me here.”
With that said, Karina sidestepped Cyril and returned to her workstation. Other matters were less important now. She just needed to hold onto what she had.
For several days straight, Sylvia found herself bumping into Cyril at her workplace.
It irked her to no end. Had her actions been leaked? Why was Cyril trailing her like nothing was wrong?
Today, Juliette accompanied Sylvia. When their cars reached the city, they noticed a car following them. It was obvious who was inside.
“Do you want to talk to him? He’s been following you these days. You two are all over the entertainment headlines. Even the hottest celebrities can’t outshine you two.”
After all, gossip and entertainment news drew more attention. And when it came to Cyril, who was once divorced and now possibly reconciling, Sylvia was even more intriguing.
Sylvia had seen the entertainment news these past few days.
The more she read, the more absurd it seemed. She and Cyril had nothing going on. How could those scandalous media outlets dare to speculate about them remarrying?
“I’ve got nothing to say to him. Don’t you think if I go to him now, tomorrow’s headlines will blow our relationship out of proportion, maybe even claim we’ve agreed to remarry?”
Juliette pondered for a moment. Sylvia did have a point, but they couldn’t let him keep trailing them. It was not only interfering with their work but also preventing Cyril from doing his.
“In that case, there’s no need to approach him. But we do need to address those online rumors. They won’t affect him much, but they certainly will you.”
