Falling for a Lie: My Stepbrother's Hidden Revenge

Chapter 149

Edgar was slightly taken aback, not expecting her to refuse so decisively.

Sylvia said, “Those years were incredibly dark for me, starting from when Grandfather brought me into the old mansion. He showed me favor, but he also didn’t trust me. When Yvonne accused me of stealing the jewelry and Greg chimed in, Grandfather didn’t say a word. Although I don’t hold any grudge against him for that incident, there’s no way I would commemorate the day I entered the old mansion.”

Her gaze was icy to the core.

It had been a long time since Edgar had seen her look at him with such eyes. He quickly apologized, “I’m sorry, I didn’t know…”

Sylvia wouldn’t direct her anger at him.

“You were probably busy with work at the Fallen Family at that time, so it’s normal that you didn’t know.

But we don’t need to have this commemorative dinner.”

As she spoke, she glanced at the time and realized it was getting late.

After instructing Eleven to take care of Edgar, she turned to leave.

Edgar swiftly grabbed her hand.

“Sylvia, do you know that Adrain is going to propose to you tonight?”

Sylvia wasn’t surprised, but she still turned back and asked, “How do you know?”

Edgar didn’t hide it. “When he came to the Fallen company looking for you last time, I met him. He told me. I think he has a kind heart and could be a good friend, but he will undoubtedly make you sad if you

are together.”

On this point, Sylvia shared the same view as him. Adrain’s gentle and refined nature was not directed at one person but towards everyone.

But hearing these words from Edgar’s mouth as a reminder felt ironic to her.

“Whether he will be a good husband or not is still uncertain, but you definitely are not. So, what right do you have to say these things?”

Edgar’s face turned pale instantly.

After a momentary pause, he looked at her again and said, “As your former husband, I failed to fulfill my
