Female Novel
Chapter 2054
As dawn approached, Sylvia made her way to the bathroom for a shower. When she emerged, she slipped back into her tornclothes with the grace and poise of someone donning the most exquisite gown for a grand ball.
Gabriel leaned against the headboard, watching her with a detached gaze. "Did you come up with the name Sylvia yourself?" heasked.
"Yeah," she replied with a light smile, glancing back at him. "Do you like it?”Gabriel's eyes darkened, and without another word, he closed them slowly.
Once she was ready, Sylvia turned to look at the pale morning light and murmured, "I'll leave as soon as it gets light. My life wasbought by you, and I've served you for many years. After this job and last night's events, | consider my debt to you paid. We'reeven now. | won't come to see you again.”
Gabriel's half-closed eyes opened slightly to study her profile. His voice, raspy and deep, broke the silence. "I told you this whenyou left the organization. Go find a man you like, live a good life."
Sylvia's lashes fluttered as she turned to him with a smile. "I will, and you take care too.""Uh-huh," he replied, closing his eyes again, his stern face growing more angular in the dim light.Sylvia knew there were no feelings between them; their relationship had always been one of mutual use.
No, ‘use’ wasn't quite the right word. Her life had been bought by him; anything he asked of her was his right. And the littleschemes she played on him were always within his control.novelbin
He simply didn't bother to call her out on them.
She had no choice; back then, if she hadn't sleep with him, she would become nothing more than an object of beauty.
She just wanted to make a small effort for a life where she couldn't make her own choices.
In her heart, she was grateful for his mercy.
Sylvia nodded slightly at him and walked toward the door.
"Sylvia!" Gabriel suddenly spoke up. "When I'm back, I'll be around for a while. Do you want me to look for your birth parents?"Her hand tightened on the doorknob. With Gabriel's connections, finding her parents wouldn't be a problem.
Bui—
"No need," Sylvia said softly, looking down. "They abandoned me; there's no need to look for them."
Her adoptive parents told her that she had been left by a river, and they were the ones who took her in.
So, when she was eight, they sold her to pay for their biological child's medical expenses, repaying those eight years of care.For Sylvia, anyone who abandoned her didn't deserve a second glance.
