Chapter 1015 Luke's AdviceSydney agreed with Chaim very much and nodded nonstop."I'm reluctant to be looked down upon by others and to hear that others say that I'm good for nothing and rely on Julien for everything, but..."She supported her forehead and smiled bitterly. "But I just find that I have relied on Julien all the time and that I have accomplished few things by myself. It's ironic.""Don't say that." Luke patted her shoulder. He didn't want to see her doubt herself and become decadent.Chaim ate some food and then said, "Ms. Raines, you'd better not split hairs.""What?" She put down her hand from her forehead and looked up at Chaim. "Mr. Houston, what do you mean?"Chaim raised his hand and interrupted her. "How long have you run Skylight Corporation?"She didn't know why he suddenly asked her this question, but she still replied without hesitation, "Almost six months."Then he asked, "Have you ever learned management before you took over Skylight Corporation?"
Chapter 1016 Change Her MindThe business world was harsh but tolerant.If one struggled in business alone and didn't have any backers, they would be eaten up by those covetous predators in business sooner or later.Luke's tone was serious. Sydney bit her lip and looked at him.After a while, she asked with uncertainty, "Do you really think that I should rely on him?""My opinion is unimportant." He shrugged. "Now that Julien can be your backer, why do you refuse? I know the reason. You think that it will show your incompetence if you can't deal with things alone, and you will be inferior to Julien in the relationship. Thus, you're reluctant to accept his help."She fell silent.'Luke is right. It's the main reason why I'm reluctant to rely on Julien.'In my opinion, I can only rely on myself in the world. Others can help me temporarily but can't help me forever.'If I get used to relying on Julien, what can I do when I break up with him or when he feels annoyed because I ask
Chapter 1017 Sydney Has Figured It OutSydney's pupils suddenly contracted, and she couldn't help clenching the goblet. Luke's words made her aware of the consequences of her assertive behavior. Sydney had always thought of relying on herself and not on others, so she had never thought about what Julien’s feelings would be. Now she finally realized that her thoughts and actions were really unfair to Julien. It was true that she couldn’t solve many problems just by herself, and she needed to turn to others for help. This time, she asked Mr. Houston for help. Who would she turn to next time? If Luke hadn’t said these words, the person she would turn to would still not be Julien when the next time something happened. ‘Julien can endure it once or twice, but can he endure this kind of matter many times?’ Sydney asked in her heart. Every time she ignored him and asked others for help, it did make him think too much. After all, she would also feel bad if Julien told someone e
Chapter 1018 Shivering With ColdWhen there were difficulties in the future, Sydney decided to turn to Julien for help and then help him in her own way. Only mutual help would not let her have any psychological burden.Luke finally felt completely relieved. At this time, Sydney picked up the wine glass and looked at Chaim, "Mr. Houston, please approve my loan application before tomorrow. Skylight Corporation needs this loan now." With that, she held out her glass towards him with a smile. Chaim also smiled, picked up his wine glass, and clinked her glass, "Don't worry. I will tell them to go through the process quickly, and you will see the loan before nine o'clock tonight at the latest." "That would be great. Thank you, Mr. Houston," Sydney was excited and grateful. She bent down to pick up a gift box from the ground and handed it to Chaim with both hands, "Mr. Houston, this is a little gift. Thank you for your help. Please accept it." Before she came to see Chaim, she fo
Chapter 1019 The Parts Were BackSeeing this, Sydney laughed, "You sneezed. You must be cold. Your lips are pale. Hurry up and put on the coat. Don't wear such thin and flamboyant clothes just to look nice again. It's chilly outside."Being lectured by Sydney, Luke was a bit defiant. He didn't think his clothes were thin and flamboyant.However, as he was about to retort, he sneezed again.Luke bit his tongue.He had to admit his clothes were thin.In just a few moments, Luke sneezed twice in quick succession, and his nose became itchy as if something was going to flow out.In order not to make a fool of himself, Luke stopped insisting and put the coat back on.After that, he felt warmer and shivered less violently."Syd." Luke took out a packet of tissues from his suit pocket, pulled one out, and wiped his nose. "Are you still cold? If so, I'll let the hotel staff bring a coat for you.""No need." Sydney shook her head and refused. "I'm fine. The car will be here soon, so it
Chapter 1020 Something Is Wrong With Their Relationship?Listening to Sean's speculation on the phone, Sydney moved her lips, but she didn't say anything.Sydney also thought that Julien might have done it.In Port City, he was the only one who could take the parts back from Dallin so easily and boldly.After all, Dallin would never return them voluntarily.Sydney wondered how Julien had known that Dallin had taken her parts away.She was sure that she had not told Julien.Sydney thought, 'Could it be that Julien had planted another spy in my company as Luke had guessed earlier?'Thinking about what Luke had said before, Sydney felt Julien might have planted someone in Skylight and learned everything about her.She wondered, 'How else could Julien know about the matter of the parts?'Sydney frowned unhappily.How could she be happy?No one would be happy if their lover sent someone to spy on them and learn their every movement.Sydney felt like a prisoner without privacy.
Chapter 1021 Sydney Went to the Supreme Grocery MarketZach knew how much Julien loved Sydney. He was Julien's assistant and he knew how much Julien always cared for Sydney.Every time Sydney called or messaged Julien, Julien would immediately take her call or reply to her message.Even when Julien was in a meeting, he would break the rules he had set and pause the meeting to take Sydney's call or reply to her message. And he never missed a single message or call from Sydney.Today, however, Julien wasn't busy, and he obviously saw Sydney's call, but he ignored it.'Are they in a fight? If not, why doesn’t Mr. Flint answer Ms. Raines' call?'Zach wondered what was going on between the two.'Why is Mr. Flint acting so strange?'Mr. Flint is so crazy about Ms. Raines, and today he's still handling Ms. Raines’ troubles, so Mr. Flint still loves Ms. Raines. Then it's Ms. Raines' problem?’Zach rubbed his chin and pondered in his mind.'What did Ms. Raines do to make Mr. Flint so an
Chapter 1022 Sydney Cooked Dinner for JulienThis evening Sydney wanted to buy more groceries and cook something delicious for Julien, and to make up for the neglect she had been giving him these days.Thinking about that, Sydney had a smile on her face. She wheeled the cart and walked around the vegetable section.By the time she finished her grocery shopping, it was already after 6 pm. It was dark outside.Sydney was carrying two large bags and stumbling towards Shallow Bay. She looked like a penguin.She had bought a lot of stuff. The bags were very heavy, so she walked very slowly. The bags hit her calves every now and then, which made it even harder for her to walk.Luckily, Shallow Bay was not far. After walking out of the market, Sydney walked for a few minutes to get there.After about ten minutes, Sydney arrived at her apartment with two large bags of groceries.She put the stuff in the kitchen. Then she was relieved. She leaned against the kitchen wall, panting.She
