The Woman From Hell

Chapter 2304



Sylvester looked nervous at my refusal. He stared at me as if I would disappear in the blink of an eye.

I felt a little bit embarrassed at how he was staring at me and coughed a few times. "Uhm, Mr. Yard, if there's no " "There's more," Sylvester said before I could finish.

I could only swallow the rest of my words. He was still an investor in Green Orange, so I could not offend him.

I smiled. "Do go on."

He let out a long sigh before saying, "Wanda, you should think about this again. Grandfather is getting old, and his health hasn't been good the past few years. He'd be delighted if he could see you.

Hearing this, I wondered if he was trying to appeal to my sympathy to get me to agree with him.

Shaking my head, I looked at Sylvester and smiled. "He's not in good health, which makes it even harder for me to see him. Think about it. He'll recall the past again if he sees me. He'll become too sad, and that will cause him to get sick. What should I do if his condition gets worse? I can't bear that responsibility." I waved my hands multiple times, afraid that I would invite the flames of trouble onto myself.

"Regardless, we're also your relatives. You..."

"Mr. Yard, we are people who have never met. Even if we're of the same bloodline, we might not have affection for one another. But deep affection can be formed through the kindness shown during one's upbringing and accompaniment through the many days and nights even if there is no blood relationship. I trust you understand this." I smiled slightly. I was already being very polite to him.

Hearing this, Sylvester lowered his gaze. "I didn't expect this to be the result after going through so much to find you." His words were tinged with sadness.

He must be feeling some loss.

I pursed my lips. "Now that you've found me, it means you've completed your task. You can go back and report this now. Tell the old man that I don't want to go back. Please don't make things difficult for me, Mr. Yard."

"Okay, I won't trouble you. If you don't want to come back, so be it. At least you're very happy now." Sylvester looked at me with eyes full of gratification as a brother.

A warm feeling rose in my heart after a moment's surprise.

Was this a feeling that could only be felt between relatives?

I shook my head. What was I thinking? How could such a thing happen?

Looking up at Sylvester, I smiled slowly. "The greatest blessing is when everyone is safe and sound."Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

"That's right. I plan to leave tomorrow. Do you want to see me off?"

That was fast.

Was he in such a hurry to report back?

I glanced at the cup on the table, filled it, and slowly lifted it up. "I'm busy with work. Let's treat our meal today as a farewell feast. Toyour safe journey, Mr. Yard." Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org

Sylvester looked at the cup. His gaze then moved upward and landed on me.

After we were done with our meal, we left the restaurant together.

He put his hands in his pockets and signaled to the car in the front. "Shall I send you back?"

"I came by car," I replied.

Sylvester nodded. "Well then, I'll be off first. Goodbye."

"Goodbye." I waved to him.

I watched Sylvester as he made his way to the car in front. He was walking very slowly and looked back at me after walking a short distance. "Wanda, can you call me 'Brother' just once?" Content belongs to NovelDrama.Org

Brother?

I could not manage the word.

I just looked at him quietly for a long time. Sylvester probably understood what was going on and did not say anything. He got in the car and left.

It took him so long to find me, but I could not even say a word. It felt undue.

Forget it, he had already left.

I arrived at my car, got in, and drove toward Regal Villa...
