Chapter 154
Sylvia also looked at them.
A trace of guilt flashed in Emmanuel’s eyes. Dona’s expression also changed, but she forced a smile
and said to Sylvia, “Sylvia, I didn’t expect you to be Sunflower. Why didn’t you tell us about it before?”
Sylvia did not want to talk to her at all and simply ignored her.
However, Simon, who had no tact, asked curiously, “Sylvia, who are they? Are they your family?”
Sylvia said bluntly, “No, I don’t know them.”
The smile on Dona’s face instantly froze.
Emmanuel’s expression also darkened, but Sylvia was incredibly cold. Furthermore, he heard the
people behind him mention Sunflower’s status in the current art world. The people around him were all
prominent figures, so he could not make a fool out of himself. Thus, he swallowed the “b*tch” that
almost left his lips.
Sonia muttered in a low voice, “So what if she knows how to draw a little?”
Her voice was so soft that it sounded like a mosquito.
Sylvia could not hear her clearly either and could not be bothered to bicker with her.
Simon also sensed that something was wrong. After sitting down next to Sylvia, he quickly moved on to
another topic.
At that moment, in addition to Emmanuel, Dona, and Sonia’s unsightly expressions, Bruce and
Catherine, who were sitting diagonally behind Sylvia, also looked sheepish.
In addition to shock, they also felt embarrassment. They never imagined that Sylvia was Sunflower.
She was supposed to be a cheap woman who desired to be the young madam of the Ledger family.
However, each of Sunflower’s paintings had a very strong visual impact. There were some that were
tough and unyielding, and some that were bright and hopeful. Anyone who had seen those paintings
would think that Sunflower was a strong and big hearted man.
However, ‘he’ was actually Sylvia!
Catherine remembered that when she had gone to Sylvia and told her to leave Tristan, Sylvia had
agreed without even touching the cheque. Soon, Catherine regretted her recent collaboration with
Dona and the others to force Sylvia to marry Michael.
She also regretted making things difficult for Sylvia at Mr. Collin’s manor yesterday. Bruce’s expression
was also unpleasant. He sighed. Thinking of something, he said, “I remember that Sylvia was raised by
her grandparents.”
“That’s right. Her grandparents were very respectable people, especially the Madam. Sylvia’s father
wasn’t her own, but she always took care of Sylvia as her own granddaughter.”
Those words were not spoken by Catherine.
When Bruce and Catherine heard the voice, they turned their heads in unison. Then, they saw that
Tristan had nestled in the seat behind them at some point.
The couple was stunned. Bruce asked, “Tristan? When did you get here?”
Tristan looked at where Sylvia was sitting and replied with little emotion, “I’ve been here a while.” Bruce
and Catherine looked at each other, pursed their lips, and said nothing. At this point in time, they did
not have the mood to question Tristan for running out. Tristan could not help but say, “I’ve told you so
many times that my feelings for her are unrequited. Do you believe me now?” Bruce and Catherine
were silent.
The night before yesterday, Tristan had flown back to Westchester City because of Sylvia, and his
parents had sent people to put him under house arrest as soon as he got out of the plane. They also
confiscated his phone and prevented him from calling Sylvia.
At that time, Tristan had explained to them that neither did Sylvia seduce him nor did she want to marry
him. He simply had unrequited feelings for her. However, they only thought that Sylvia had
brainwashed him with her powerful tactics and did not believe him.
