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

Chapter 277: Encounter

As I just mentioned, Cyril's childhood sweetheart showed up in the blink of an eye. She came straight to my door, talking about cooperation. Sylvia couldn't just ignore her.

Mia observed Sylvia seriously, and Sylvia observed Mia in return. Seeing Mia's face, Sylvia was reminded of a middle school classmate. They'd spent just half a semester together. She was cute, and everyone liked her.

Back then, she wasn't popular with girls because many thought she was trying to attract boys.

Sylvia never cared much about these things; she was too focused on studying. She knew she was the future heir of the family, so she had a lot to learn and no time for distractions. Later, when she met Cyril, all her attention was on him, and she disregarded everything else.

Thinking about it now after so many years, Sylvia felt a bit surreal. She smiled sincerely at Mia. They were once classmates, after all, so they could have a civil conversation.

"You're divorced from Cyril. Why not stay away from him? We grew up together, and I've never seen him so troubled. If you don't like him, you should keep your distance. As the heir of the family, why stay here?"

Sylvia realized she was overthinking. Maybe that's why many girls didn't like her back then. Boys liked her because of her caring nature, but girls didn't appreciate it. And maybe her stern expression didn't help either.

But why should she leave? She didn't like Cyril, but why did she have to go? If she recalled correctly, Nan Shi's company started abroad. So logically, Mia should ask Cyril to leave. Then Cyril could expand on Mia's family territory, with Mia's support. Wouldn't that be better?

Sylvia threw the question at Mia, who was taken aback. The possibility of taking Cyril back with her made Mia realize her naivety.

"No, his home is here. If anyone should leave, it should be you. Do you know how much criticism he faced because of you being abroad? My father wouldn't let me near him because of you. It's your fault he's in this state. If anyone should leave, it's you!"This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

Mia's simplicity surprised Sylvia. But Sylvia's family members were clear-headed. They didn't want her near Cyril because of his actions over the years.

"If you're here just to talk about

these things, then I think we don't need to continue this conversation You came to discuss the medical Al project. If you're here to flirt with Cyrinthere's no need to continue. I'll have my secretary escort you out."

Sylvia gestured to call her secretary, but Mia stopped her, realizing Sylvia's intentions.

"You're boring. If that doesn't work, let's talk business. I'm interested in your medical Al project, but I don't want to collaborate directly. I want to buy it for independent research."

Mia's face changed from innocent to assertive. She was genuinely interested in the project.

Sylvia was surprised someone wanted to buy the project outright.

"How much are you offering? We've invested billions into this project can't just hand it over. We've been researching Al for years. If your offer isn't enough, there's no point in discussing further."

"I'll offer one trillion."

Sylvia's casual response caught Mia off guard. Her confident demeanor shifted to shock.

"Are you kidding? Is it worth

spending so much on just one

project? Even if I agree, I'll only

reimburse you for the initial

l

investment, and I might invest even more in the future. Why should I pay so much?"
