“Bro, both Jimmy and Duncan are downstairs. Why don’t you tell them that I’m very busy and don’t have time to see them? This is too much hassle.” Sylvia felt she couldn’t show up here. If she did, trouble would surely follow. So without hesitation, she went straight to Bruce and asked for his help to handle the situation?
But when Bruce heard this, instead of planning to help Sylvia, he began to think. If Duncan and Miles were to meet, who would come out on top?
“What are you thinking, bro?”
Seeing her brother’s contemplative expression, Sylvia felt something was off. What was he thinking about?
“I’m just considering a very important matter. You said both Miles and Duncan are interested in you. If you had to choose between them, who would you pick?”
Sylvia frowned. She had just come out of the marriage tomb. What was her brother implying? Was he trying to involve her again? How could he dislike her so much?
“If you think I’m here to fight for family assets, then I won’t inherit the company. Don’t disgust me with such talk, okay?”
Bruce chuckled, “What are you talking about? I didn’t mean that. I just said it casually. I was just asking what you meant. If you don’t want to say, it’s okay. But have you thought about how to handle these two who came to see you at the same time? Duncan has been your good friend for so many years, and Miles‘ company is also planning to collaborate with yours. What do you think of these two?”
Bruce looked very serious. He had indeed been observing Miles, mainly because of the way Miles looked at his sister, which seemed suspicious.
But now he began to think, if his sister really wanted to get involved emotionally again, whom would she choose?
To be honest, after experiencing what happened with Cyril, their family didn’t want Sylvia to be so impulsive and enter into another relationship. They had a big family business, and there was no need to let Sylvia suffer again.

Sylvia sighed helplessly. She knew best what her brothers were thinking. They were all afraid of her being hurt again, so she wouldn’t refuse their kindness. But the problem now was whether they could help her solve these external matters.
“I have no feelings for either of them. My current thought is just to solve the company’s affairs first. So, bro, can you help me with this matter?”
Bruce raised an eyebrow slightly, neither agreeing nor disagreeing. Instead, he called the front desk and asked them to bring the two visitors, one big and one small, to his office.
Seeing Bruce starting to help her with this matter, Sylvia breathed a sigh of relief and immediately ran into the office lounge to wait. After a while, sure enough, the visitors arrived, but it wasn’t just one big and one small; it was two big and one small. Bruce was stunned to see Miles leading Jimmy in. He had thought only Jimmy had come, but he didn’t expect his dad to come too.
“You’re here too. I thought you wouldn’t come.”
Miles nodded at Bruce. “Originally, I didn’t want to come, but this kid insisted on finding Sylvia to play and ran over here. I just found out about it, so I came to take him away. He didn’t cause any trouble for you and Sylvia here, did he?”
Bruce didn’t know if they had caused any trouble for Sylvia, but they hadn’t caused any trouble by coming here. If there was any trouble, it would probably only be Duncan’s fault. Looking at the child’s absent–minded appearance, it seemed quite pitiful.
“Sylvia is busy and has left. She didn’t have time to deal with this, so she called me. As for going out to play, I think it’s okay. I’m going on a business trip these days, so I’ll leave the company’s affairs to Sylvia. If you want to go out and play, try to take your work with you. People can go out to play, but they can’t forget about work.”
Duncan was dumbfounded. Could you still take your work with you when you go out to play like this?
“Isn’t it inappropriate? After all, the purpose of going out to play is to relax. You still want him to work. Isn’t that wrong?”
“Why not? When Sylvia wanted me to go out with her, I did the same thing. Doing work while playing won’t delay anything. What’s wrong with that? What I can do, can’t he?” Bruce didn’t think there was anything wrong with what he said. Besides, changing the workplace while playing could increase work efficiency. In fact, he was very willing. Of
what he said didn’t represent Sylvia’s thoughts. If Sylvia didn’t want to, these tasks would still fall to him in the end.
course,
Duncan didn’t know what to say for a moment. He didn’t expect this family to be so inward–looking, making him feel a bit out of place.
“Since you two have other things to discuss, I’ll take the child and leave first. Sorry for the intrusion today.”
Although Miles didn’t know the identity of the person next to him, judging from their conversation, they seemed to have known each other for a long time. After nodding slightly at the two of them, he led Jimmy away.
When Jimmy left, he still seemed a little unwilling. He wanted to play here a little longer. After all, he hadn’t seen Sylvia yet. Wouldn’t his purpose for coming here be in vain?
Duncan had no intention of leaving, so he simply sat down directly. “Bro, do you want to go out and play with us? I think that person just now seems to like Sylvia. Is he Sylvia’s admirer?”
