Chapter 527
Sylvia rolled her eyes impatiently at the rapid-fire questions, saying nothing.
"You've got snerve, taking advantage of our Sylvia! Do you know who she is?" Sylvia's mother was the first to lash out, her hand flying out to slap Wilbur across the face.
Wilbur sneered, grabbing the woman's hand and throwing her against the sofa.
Sylvia's mother stared at Wilbur in disbelief for a second before cursing at him as the other relatives yelled at Wilbur as well. Their accusations were completely ridiculous, alleging that Wilbur had seduced Sylvia because he was after her looks and riches.
Wilbur was annoyed at the accusations but could only hold back on Sylvia's account.
Sylvia got to her feet and yelled, "Shut the f*ck up!" Her family members were thrown off guard, staring at her in shock.
Sylvia barked out a laugh. "Why the sudden care for me, huh? What were you doing when I was getting taken advantage of by those plutocrats and officials? What were you doing when I cto you begging for your help?" "What's that supposed to mean?" Sylvia's mother protested at once. "Sylvia, it's your honor to get the chance to serve these powerful men! Do you know how many women in the world would kill to have a chance like that?" "Exactly! You weren't blessed with a face and body like that for nothing, especially not to be wasted on someone like this bastard," Sylvia's father chimed in as well, glaring at Wilbur.
Wilbur was completely shocked by their words.
It seemed like Sylvia's parents had known about what was happening to their daughter for a while now.
But from the sound of it, they seemed to support her living this way... and were even proud of it? Had they never even considered how Sylvia had felt about all of this before? It was no wonder she wanted to end her life. To be put through so much suffering and have parents this shameless... Wilbur did not know how Sylvia had been able to hold on for so long.
The other people in the room were clearly Sylvia's other relatives as well, and they began lecturing Sylvia for how ungrateful she was.
They were saying that if it had not been for Joy Corp, she would not have acquired this much wealth and fame. Her suicide attempt was a gesture of great disrespect to the rest of her family, as well as doy Corp. UMS Sylvia covered up her ears, her expression creasing with distress.
Wilbur shouted at once, "Get out of my room, or I'll have to make you." "Who the hell are you to talk to us like that? Sylvia's mother glowered at Wilbur viciously. "I'm going to report you for assaulting my daughter, you're going to end up in jail real soon! You piece of shit." Wilbur's expression darkened, and he reached out to slap her square in the face.
The crisp sound rang through the air, displacing all the other noise in the room.
Sylvia's mother was dizzy from the slap, and the rest of the relatives stared at Wilbur in shock as if they could not believe what he had done.
Wilbur flung the door of his room open, shouting, "Get out!" The words brought about a wave of pressure.
Sylvia's parents and the rest of the relatives turned pale and actually ended up doing as they were told obediently. Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
Wilbur slammed the door shut after they were gone, walking back up to Sylvia.
She had sat back down on the couch, picking up the box of cigarettes and lighting one numbly.
Wilbur sighed. "Have your parents and family always been like this?" Sylvia laughed bitterly. "I'm their cash cow, of course I have to keep the act up and sleep with whoever actyp I'm told to. That's the only way these people will keep getting money. They'd hate to letdie."
