Falling for a Lie: My Stepbrother's Hidden Revenge

Chapter 35

Chapter 35

Fortunately, Sylvia was alone in the bathroom, but she could not guarantee that no one would come in

later.

She wanted to bypass him and make a beeline for the door, but her attempt was cut short when Edgar snagged her wrist.

“What are you afraid of?”

Edgar forced a disingenuous grin, “I mentioned wanting a little chinwag, you slipped yesterday, no way I’m letting you off the hook this time.”

What’s there to talk about?

The matter between him and her was clear.

Breaking free from his grip, Sylvia massaged her wrist, retorting, “What’s there for me to be afraid of? I’m just flabbergasted that the big shot Mr. Fallen would corner a lady in the restroom.”

His dark, penetrating gaze held her as Edgar lit a cigarette.

The acrid stench of the tobacco made Sylvia frown in disgust.

Edgar’s demeanor, shrouded in a haze of smoke, grew darker as he finally asked.

“Who is the man dining with you?”

Taken aback, Sylvia shot him a frosty look, sneering, “None of your bloody business.”

Ignoring his question didn’t stoke his ire, instead, Edgar continued to ask, “It seemed like he was sweet on you, what about you? Do you fancy him too?”

What?

Sylvia seemed to have understood something.

Her gaze, now laced with a hint of intrigue, met his, “Did you go out of your way to corner me out of sheer jealousy?”

Edgar was taken aback by her pointed words.

Unable to hold back, Sylvia burst out laughing immediately.

Edgar’s face turned beet red, his feathers clearly ruffled by her mocking gaze, “Anyway, you’re still my ex. This sort of promiscuity will tarnish the Fallen family’s reputation. I warn you, you’d best steer clear

of other men!”

“Oh, Mr. Fallen, can’t find a better way to kill time, can you? As I’ve said before, who I choose to spend time with is none of your business!”

His face was a picture of thunder, yet he seemed at a loss for words to refute her.
