A few days after Blaise came home, Sylvia came to visit.She looked worried, and didn't even say much greetings, and asked directly: "If it were you, what would you do?"

"what?"

"He hasn't broken up with her yet." Sylvia gritted her teeth and said, "I heard...he still has a few outside."

Edwin understood, she looked at Sylvia's slightly haggard face carefully, and then asked, "What do you want?"

"I hope I will always be Mrs. Greengrass." Sylvia has obviously thought of the answer, "I can get a divorce, but I can't play with him, he will let me leave with nothing. He has been my backer for so many years , once he turns against me, not only will I not get any property, but even the custody of Astoria will fall into his hands. I can live without him, but I don't want my daughter to be in the same arms Living under unpredictable women—yes, like Daphne growing up under my watch."

Her last sentence seemed to be self-deprecating, but it also contained indescribable sadness.

"Do you dare to kill?" Edwina asked a shocking question, and when she met Sylvia's astonished gaze, she smiled, "If you dare...it depends on whether you can act well play."

"I can."

She expressed her doubts with her eyes.

"I know what you're thinking, but I'm in a very embarrassing situation." Sylvia was slightly lost in thought, "I can't live without him, and I'm not willing to live like this. Do you understand what I mean?"

"I understand." Edwina pondered for a moment, "There is no way. But first, the risk is extremely high, and second, you must not show your feet."

A few days later, Sylvia wrote to Sean's "friend", inviting her to come home for coffee.Drinking coffee is just a pretense, and any fool knows that this is a face-to-face tough battle.

Sylvia had been waiting for a long time when the girl appeared at the Greengrass mansion, well-dressed and happy.Although she has met each other twice, when this girl in her early 20s walked in the door, she could not help but realize the importance of time to people.

Although her demeanor was a bit frivolous, but that delicate demeanor overshadowed the frivolity and made her look quite cute.What's more, her skin is white and flawless, and her hair is as shiny as satin. These symbols of youth are definitely not something that can be piled up by beauty spells and cosmetics.As Edwina's friend, Sylvia was used to being amazed.Although the girl in front of her was not as beautiful as Edwina, her vigor was beyond the reach of the latter.

"Please sit down." After experiencing the initial loss of focus, Sylvia quickly withdrew her gaze.

The girl smiled provocatively: "I don't know what you want to do with me?"

Sylvia didn't want to ask her name, and she didn't want to talk nonsense. Her eyes fell on the other person's face, and she didn't need to act to feel a little depressed: "I want to ask you something."

The girl didn't answer, just smiled and waited for her next words.

"After you become Mrs. Greengrass," Sylvia sighed and continued to act according to the pre-planned script, "please treat my daughter well."

The girl looked at her calmly, even quite calmly.

Sylvia personally picked up the box on the coffee table: "This is my reward for you. I don't ask much, as long as you don't embarrass her."

As the lid was opened, her eyes widened, the expression of indifference was finally torn, and a look of amazement could not be restrained on her face.None of this escaped Sylvia's eyes.

Inside the box was a colorful cloak, not to mention the girl in front of her, even Sylvia was not convinced by its luxury when she got it.

"If you are worried about ghosts, you don't have to accept them." Sylvia added the last chip, "but you have to make an unbreakable oath, otherwise I won't be at ease. Please forgive me, miss, as a mother, I Can't quite trust you."

——"Of course she will choose to accept it, after all, it is so gorgeous, and the unbreakable oath is too risky for her." Edwin pulled this plan that is enough to make people fall into hell slowly, with a smile on his face, "The moment she accepts it, you have already taken control of the initiative. What you do next is up to you."

This cloak was in Edwinla's private collection, and one of Chatillon's many inheritances.It is woven from the fur of unicorns, ptarmigans, and jays.Not only are they expensive and extremely rare, but more importantly, these three animals are clearly listed on the British Ministry of Magic's prohibited hunting and trading list.

Now, the cloak is in the hands of Sean's mistress, and a forged transaction contract is hidden in his study.

What would happen if something happened?

Edwin did not know where Chatillon got this cloak, she was not interested in the property he left behind, and this kind of overly flamboyant clothing was not to her taste.Instead of staying in the box to see the light of day, it would be better to give it to Sylvia, which is still a help to her friend.

"This cloak wasn't mine in the first place." Edwina rejected her offer of monetary thanks, but had another request, "If you must express your thanks, treat Daphne better in the future."

Of course Sylvia was not happy: "Why?"

"Because she will remember everything you have done." Edwina replied lightly, "Now she is still young, when she grows up, can you always ensure that she is powerless to retaliate against you?"

Sylvia was speechless.

"It is impossible for me to save you forever." Edwin pulled in front of her with a very solemn tone, "You are already 30 years old, Sylvia, can you still afford it?"

Of course she can't.Sylvia knew this well.Her former glamorous appearance has been weakened by the passage of time, and she didn't even save some private money for herself due to her early self-righteousness.Now she has no family to rely on, no beauty, no harmonious family—then what else can she do?
