After Divorce She Becomes the Billionaire Heiress (Sylvia and Cyril)

Chapter 25

Chapter 25 So stupid

After the divorce from Cyril was finalized, Sylvia vanished without a trace.

Of course, she didn’t literally vanish. Cyril simply had no idea where she went or who she was in contact with. He didn’t even know if she moved back in with her parents after the split.

Sitting in his office, Cyril was plagued by doubts. After all these years of marriage, how little did he truly know about his wife?

He was ignorant about where Sylvia lived, who her close friends were after the divorce, everything. With her having blocked him on everything, contacting her was impossible.

Cyril had wanted to confront her, to ask why she would do this. But he couldn’t even find her. He felt utterly frustrated.

He had never felt so thwarted, not even when starting his business, which had gone smoothly. Yet his biggest failure was with Sylvia.

Out of options, Cyril set his staff to keep investigating Sylvia’s whereabouts. But it was as if she had vanished after the divorce. There was no trace of her coming and goings, who she

–

met with nothing. Finding anything concrete was proving impossible.

Cyril was incredibly irritated.

“Sir, we’ve tried, but there’s little to go on. The mistress’ outings were very limited during your marriage. Mostly just the mansion, the family estate, and trips to the supermarket. We checked

there too, but she hasn’t been seen on security footage lately,” his secretary said apologetically.

“That’s all you could find? No clues on who she met with or other contact info?” Cyril asked grimly.

So the most exciting place his wife in her late 20s went was the grocery store, buying household necessities and produce, he thought bitterly. It painted a certain picture of their

domestic life.

“No other contacts unfortunately. But we did find an old email address from a supermarket survey she filled out. It may still be active if you want to try messaging,” the secretary offered helpfully. All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Cyril took the email address. It was something at least. Better than nothing.

After dismissing his secretary, Cyril composed a message to Sylvia’s email, hoping she

would respond. If she didn’t use it anymore or ignored it, there was no telling when he’d hear from her again.

Luckily a reply came swiftly, but Cyril’s expression soured instantly upon reading it.

All Sylvia had written was: Foolish.

Cyril’s face darkened. He had simply wanted to ask if she was responsible. Yet she chose to mock him instead. That stung.

Soon Sylvia sent him a large compressed file of documents, fulfilling her divorce promise to hand over everything she had on him.

Her next message stated that this would enable him to destroy Karina if he wished. There

were ways.

The contents differed vastly from the online rumors. Sylvia’s dossier was far more detailed

and exhaustive.

It was even more comprehensive than the mystery email from before.

Cyril wondered what the discrepancy meant, but before he could unravel it, Sylvia blocked him, cutting off contact completely. She was done.

With this new information, Cyril paid another visit to Karina’s hospital room, now tidied up. To his surprise, he found his brother Bonnie there with her.

“Bro…” Bonnie stood up nervously. He had kept a low profile since their fight at home. Cyril couldn’t be bothered to ask why he was there. He had been lost in thought the whole ride

over about what to do.

Sylvia had damning evidence against Karina yet hadn’t used it to ruin her. But the online rumors were unverifiable. Sylvia’s dossier however could definitely end Karina.

“I received some items. Those online rumors about you

at you tell me honestly, are they true or false? If true, I’ll handle it. If false, apologize publicly,” said Cyril.

For old times’ sake, he would help Karina one last time. After this, they were done.

Karina panicked internally, wondering why Cyril was suddenly asking about this. Had he discovered something?

“Of course they’re false!” she answered without hesitation. Cyril’s expression instantly

darkened.

“Yet now you refuse to tell me the truth? Makes me wonder what else you’ve lied about over the years,” he said coldly.

The more he thought about it, the more he wondered if anything she had told him was

actually real.

Seeing Cyril’s reaction, Karina was utterly lost. Why was he acting this way? Did he already know everything and was simply done protecting her?
