After Divorce She Becomes the Billionaire Heiress (Sylvia and Cyril)

Chapter 344 Kind Old Lady

Silvia glanced meaningfully at Balk, realizing why there were so many people here because of Balk's influence.

"I thought you had found out something, but it seems you haven't found anything at all. They're all here because of you."

News had been circulating early that Balk would accompany Silvia to this charity event and auction. Upon hearing this, everyone rushed here, eager to meet Balk and know about his recent activities. Many were Balk's fans, so after the recent controversy, they all wanted to meet him.

After listening to Silvia, Balk found it hard to believe.

"Seriously? Are you saying all these people are my fans? That's impossible. Our circle isn't that big, and everyone knows each other. Are you joking with me?"

"Why would I joke with you?"

Silvia had been working hard lately and had introduced many people. Many would instinctively ask about Balk's situation. At first, Silvia thought they were asking for a purpose, but later she realized they were genuinely concerned about Balk. They were his loyal fans.

So Balk didn't realize his own influence.

"I didn't expect to have so many fans. Should I wear a mask today so they won't recognize me? After all, we're here for charity."

"Bro, are you really that naive? Today's purpose isn't just about charity. You're here to clarify things with the public. You have no trouble now, and you should focus on your work. You've been online all this time and bored, right? I'm helping you out."

Silvia was speechless. She thought Balk understood her intentions, but apparently he didn't even now.

"I thought you just brought me because you couldn't find anyone else to come with you. I didn't expect all this. When did you plan all these things with your brother? Why didn't you tell me earlier? If I had known, I would have prepared seriously."

"Forget it. Anyone can prepare for today's event seriously, but if it's you, I don't believe it. Just behave and don't cause any trouble for me. You've been in this circle for so long, and you think I don't know what kind of person you are? You've caused enough trouble for your agent."

Hearing his sister expose him like that, Balk felt a bit ashamed, but he couldn't deny that what she said was true. He had indeed caused trouble for his agent.

"You know, I didn't rely on the family

background to make my way. If I don't show some attitude, won't everyone think we're easy targets? Look at the situation now. Even though everyone knows I don't have family backing, not many dare to bully me. Let's go. I'm embarrassed enough with you exposing my flaws."

"What's there to be embarrassed about? With all those things you just did, what's there to be embarrassed about? Let's go. If you meet your fans later, be careful not to show too much of your charm. Don't turn today into your personal fanContent protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

meeting, got it?"

Silvia reminded again, worried that her brother might get too excited and turn the charity event into his own fan gathering, which would be embarrassing.

Balk nodded half-heartedly, looking very indifferent. Silvia finally understood why Balk's agent sometimes felt so frustrated. How could they not when dealing with someone like him?

As they were talking, they didn't realize someone else had been listening. When they were about to go upstairs, they met an old lady holding a glass of wine, smiling at them.

"Do you know that old lady? I've been in school for so long, but I've never seen her."

Balk found it strange. He didn't know the old lady who had just greeted them, but he could tell she meant no harm. She just casually greeted them, although they didn't know each other. It was odd.

"I don't know her either. I thought she was the one who greeted you earlier. But it seems she just casually said hello. Well, there are many people here we don't know. Let's go upstairs. The auction is about to start, and we have a mission to accomplish today."

Silvia hadn't seen the old lady either, but she suddenly felt the old lady looked somewhat familiar. However, she couldn't remember where she had seen her before.

Since she couldn't recall, she decided not to dwell on it. They still had a lot to do next.

As they reached upstairs, they heard some commotion, like a young woman screaming. Although they didn't want to interfere, they couldn't help but think of the kind old lady they had just seen.

"Shall we go and see? That old lady seemed kind and gentle."

Balk hesitated for a moment, wondering how to tell Silvia. Silvia nodded without refusing.
