After divorce, Ex-wife Revealed Identities -
Chapter 233
The warmth from that familiar big palm traveled up to hers instantly.Sylvia gaped at Franklin, wondering why he suddenly appeared tomake trouble.
"Franklin. You..."
“I can shake hands with you on Mr. Alexander's behalf. I don't thinkyou'll mind, Mr. Alexander." Franklin curled his lips into an evil smile.He couldn't believe Sylvia was so bold to hold another man's hand.“What an overbearing jerk!" Sylvia could tell he overreacted again,wishing he could take his pills to mitigate his mental disease.Meanwhile, at the entrance of the five-star hotel, Luz was tossed out ofthe hotel, lying prone on the ground miserably.
Gritting her teeth in anger, she checked on her palms, which had beenscratched by the ground. Blood oozed from the wounds.
She seethed with rage but couldn't vent her anger.
"Excuse me, Ma'am. Are you all right? Let me help you."
She heard a familiar voice suddenly. Then a woman helped her up.Luz stood up, only to replace the mother and the daughter who had cursedDesigner X standing in front of her.
Skyla had just helped her stand up.
She didn't look like a shrew as before. When Luz was kicked out, sherecognized Luz was Sylvia's coworker.
With a gentle smile, she asked compassionately, "Did they also kickyou out?"
"Do-Do you know Designer X?" Luz bit her lip and was about to pull outa paper napkin from her handbag to wipe the blood off her arms.
A wet tissue had covered her wounds. Tammy said gently, "I used to bea nurse. Let me deal with your wounds."
Ten minutes later, the three women were sitting in a cafe nearby thehotel.
"Do you mean she's Sylvia Andrews? That online celebrity?" Luzfrowned, "Why does she wear a mask, then?"
"Probably she's too ugly.” Tammy curled her lips. "Alas... We're fellowvictims."
“You have a bright future in your career. Are you reluctant to be fired inthis way?" Skyla looked at her in sympathy. “LX is one of the mostfamous design companies worldwide.”
“I've already been fired. What can I do?" Luz replied in depression.Skyla held her hand gently, looking at her demagogically. "Do you wantto avenge?"
"Of course, I do.”
“I can help you."
Luz wasn't a fool. She asked on alert, “There's no free lunch. Why doyou want to help me?"
Skyla answered bluntly, “Because I also want to avenge. If we worktogether, I believe we'll send Sylvia Andrews to Hell. After that, you willhave fame and money. Here is a bank card with one million dollars in it.Take it. I heard your mother needed money for surgery.”
"You..." Luz didn't expect Skyla to obtain everything about her quickly."Girl, your mother's life matters. I'm helping you. I won't harm you."Skyla wore a graceful smile, pretending to be a kind-hearted elder.Luz was convinced.
She wasn't from a wealthy family and needed money urgently.
Her mother suffered from lung cancer. If she didn't take surgery, thecancer cells would spread.
Therefore, Luz had been working hard and dreaming of having aboyfriend like Franklin. Then she would obtain a lot of money to rescueher mother.
However, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't earn much money.Her mother was almost dying.
Now, she had lost her job. She didn't know what to do in the future.Gazing at the bank card from Skyla, she hesitated. The one milliondollars were indeed appealing to her.
A hint of greed flashed through her eyes. Money seemed to be themost challenging test for a person who needed money the most.Skyla continued in a magical voice, "Ms. Craig, money can save yourmother's life. You are also talented. With the money, you'll be comparedto Sylvia Andrews and even win against her."
"Trust me. You can do it."
“If you obey me, you can avenge and earn money."
Luz bit her lip. "Who on earth are you?"
“It doesn't matter who I am. You need money, and I have it." Skylacould tell Luz had already bitten the bait.
She shoved the bank card into Luz's hands. "I look forward to yourgood news."
With those words, she took Tammy out of the cafe.
Tammy whispered, "Mom, why did you give her so much money?""We don't lack one million dollars.” Skyla knocked on her head. "Yourgrandmother gave me ten million dollars to let me spend on the fashionweek. One million is nothing. I'll pay her five million if Sylvia can beruined, let alone one million.”
"Will Luz be obedient to us?" Tammy felt disappointed after her motherdisdained her.
Determination flashed through Skyla's eyes. "She'll help us.”
She had seen reluctance and greed in Luz's eyes earlier.
A person with desire was easy to be manipulated.
The night was deep.
The manor was blanketed by silence.
When Franklin took Sylvia to the manor, Lilian walked up to them.Seeing them together, she wore a sweet smile, although a weird lightflashed through her eyes.
"Master Franklin, Miss Andrews, welcome back."
Franklin let go of Sylvia's hand. "Exhausted? Want to take a showernow or later?"
Sylvia was slightly tired. Although "Starry" was stunning, she neededmuch energy to wear it for a whole night.
"I'l take a shower now."
Smiling, Franklin could tell she was exhausted. He scooped her up,striding toward the stairs.
They nearly had nothing at the banquet, so he ordered Lilian, "Makesome late supper.”
"Yes, Master Franklin.”
Lilian jealously gazed at Sylvia in Franklin's arms. After they vanishedon the stairs, she entered the kitchen.
In the master bedroom, Franklin helped Sylvia take off the dress.Glaring at him, Sylvia refused, "I can do it myself.”
“I'm familiar with this work." Franklin lifted a brow, his big handsreaching her waist to fumble for the hidden zipper. He pulled it down.Sylvia snorted. "I'm going to the bathroom."
Then she left.
Franklin watched her figure vanish in sight, his Adam's apple rolling upand down. Flames of desire surged in his intense eyes.
He strode toward the bathroom door and put his hand on the doorknob.However, he failed to open it.
Sylvia chuckled, "I've locked it from the inside."
“It's my manor. Think you can stop me with it?" Franklin obtained a key,opened the door, and strode in.
Sylvia nestled in his arms, feeling worn out.
Rubbing her sore back, she complained, "You beast!"
"Honey, let's get back together.” Franklin pecked her neck.
"No."
"Don't you love me at all?" Franklin wore a bitter smile.
Suddenly, there were knocks on the door. Lilian said, "Excuse me,Master Franklin, Miss Andrews. The supper is ready."
Sylvia broke free from his arms, seemingly covering her panic. Shequickly said, “I'm hungry."
Then she opened the bedroom door and strode out.
She almost trotted.
At the corner, she suddenly slipped, almost rolling down the stairs.
It happened in a blink, but Sylvia reacted quickly.
She did two backward flips and fell to the ground in the living room."Are you all right, Miss Andrews?" Lilian's expression changeddramatically. She hurriedly rushed down the stairs to check on her.Fortunately, thick carpets were on the stairs and the living room floor.Sylvia supported herself with one arm. When Lilian arrived, she stoodup.
