Chapter 1035 The Plan Worked OutSo, Chaim was rather anxious now.He took off his glasses and rubbed his sore eyes. Then he suppressed his tension and began answering the questions from the people in the conference room. "Well, I understand that you're worried, but there’s no point in talking about it now. Please be quiet."Chaim signaled them to keep quiet.Having been the president for many years, he was respected by his team. Upon hearing his words, they stopped throwing questions and gradually fell silent.Even the middle-aged man, the first person to raise the question, sat down.Seeing this, Chaim felt slightly relieved and then continued, "Don't worry. I said that Mr. Flint would definitely help us as long as we granted Ms. Raines her loan of 20 million. It’s still early now. Maybe Mr. Flint doesn't know that we have approved Ms. Raines’ loan."Chaim had to explain in this way to appease these people temporarily.However, some people were still unconvinced."Mr. Housto
Chapter 1036 Sydney Also Persuaded LukeWhen Chaim heard Zach's warning, he gave a cold shudder and replied seriously, "I'm sorry. Please tell Mr. Flint that such a thing will definitely not happen again."Chaim was not a fool. He knew that he could only do something once.If he did it again, he would be asking for trouble."Okay. It’s good that you know it. I’ll hang up," Zach answered coldly and then hung up.Afterward, Zach sent Julien a message that Chaim had thanked him.In Shallow Bay, Julien dried his hair and was about to go to sleep in the room.Hardly had he taken a step when his phone in the bathrobe pocket rang. He took it out to have a look. After making a reply, he put the phone aside and went on walking into the room.Julien entered the room and stood by the bed. He stared at Sydney, who was sleeping with pink cheeks. After giving a resigned smile, he bent down, gently squeezed her nose and then whispered, "Honey, you're sleeping so soundly. You think that Chaim
Chapter 1037 Keep It a Secret"Of course, I'm a good boss." Julien lifted his chin slightly. His face was filled with complacency.Sydney's lips twitched. "Don't you know that I'm being ironic?"She knew that he liked to exploit Zach.But she didn't expect him to exploit Zach extravagantly!Besides, it seemed that Julien didn't think that he was wrong.Julien leaned against the chair and replied with a smile, "I know it."He wasn't stupid. Of course, he knew what she drove at."Then why are you so complacent?" Sydney rolled her eyes at him.Julien smiled. "If I hadn't asked Zach to work overtime, I would have worked overtime and had less time to be with you. So I naturally asked him to work overtime. After all, he's single and has much free time."What Julien had said was shameless, but he said so plausibly. Sydney was stuck for words. She felt angry but funny.She sympathized with Zach.'How can Julien exploit Zach just because Zach is single?'Sydney supported her forehe
Chapter 1038 A RumorSeeing that Sydney was reluctant to tell him, Julien arched his eyebrows and didn't force her. He smiled faintly and said, "Alright, don't talk about Zach anymore. If you mention other men all the time, I will be jealous. Why are you calling me? What do you want to say?"Sydney twisted her lips. "Why are you so sure that I'm calling you because I have something to talk about to you? Maybe I feel bored and would like to chat with you."Julien chuckled. "I know that you're not the kind of person who likes to chat with me during working hours."Julien tapped his finger on the phone screen and signaled her to look back.Sydney turned around to have a look. Bookshelves were behind her back.Julien meant that she was in her study, and thus she was also working like him.What Julien had said was right. During working hours, except for business, she wouldn't call or text anyone to chat.Julien was the same.Sydney called him during working hours this time. It mean
Chapter 1039 Heated DiscussionNow Sydney finally knew that she was photographed in a hotel with a man and that many netizens guessed that she was having an affair with that man. ‘Oh, shit! How ridiculous!’ Sydney rolled her eyes, "Which man did I go to a hotel with? Why didn't I know?" Sean moved her lips and looked at Sydney with a hint of complexity before speaking, "Ms. Raines, you forgot that you and Mr. Chase went to Meteor Hotel to see Mr. Houston yesterday." Hearing this, Sydney remembered what had happened yesterday, and her face turned a little angry, "You mean that someone took photos of Luke and me going in and out of the hotel, and then they spread a rumor that I’m having an affair with Luke? The man in the photos is Luke?" "Yes," Sean lowered her eyes. Sydney smiled with anger, "These people are quite good at spreading rumors. I'd like to see what they say on the Internet." With that, she threw away the pen and turned on the computer. As soon as Sydney enter
Chapter 1040 Meaningful PhotosBecause of the unequal status and standard of living, netizens generally have malice against the rich in their hearts, so netizens prefer to see the rich surrounded by scandals than to see the rich live well. When the rich were not as elegant as they had used to be, netizens would not sympathize with them but would only laugh at them and even hurt them. It seemed that only in this way could netizens vent their sense of imbalance in identity and living standards. In short, the most terrible thing in the world was not ghosts but the hearts of people. Therefore, Sydney knew how bad the comments were before reading them. Some Netizens had a herd mentality and seldom had their own judgment. Meanwhile, they all had blind obedience to the media. They rarely doubted what the media said.Of course, there were also some people who were clear-headed and doubted whether the news was true or false. But so what? The jealousy of the rich made these clea
Chapter 1041 Not ThemEveryone in Port City knew that the Raines family and the Chase family were close.Luke and she grew up together.If the photo had been sent out without any editing, everyone would have recognized her and Luke in it, and some people would have doubted the authenticity of the photo. But the Squirrel team had deliberately blurred Luke's face, so that no one could tell it was him, and made people think that the man in the photo was a flashy and flirty guy. Only such a man would convince the public that the photo was real.After all, such a man would be very good at sweet-talking women, and she might have 'cheated' on Julien because of his 'sweet words'.Realizing their evil intentions, Sydney trembled in anger. She itched to break into their office and confront them."I wouldn't have noticed that Luke's face was edited if you hadn't pointed it out to me." Sydney clasped her slender fingers to suppress her anger.She couldn't help it. She had been so annoyed by the
Chapter 1042 Female Ringleader"Exactly." Sydney nodded, "That's what I mean.""So, the ringleader is a woman?" Sean's eyes widened in shock.Sydney nodded slightly, "Yes."The mastermind behind this was undoubtedly a woman.Sydney had her share of male admirers who wished to break her up with Julien, such as Luke and Cayden.But they would never stoop to such a low level.This method, though effective, would tarnish her reputation.They wouldn't do that to her.If they wanted to ruin anyone's reputation, it would be Julien's.But the online rumors painted her as a 'cheater' and Julien as a victim. It was obvious that the culprit only wanted to destroy her and leave Julien unscathed.The conclusion was clear: the ringleader was a woman who admired Julien."Do you see why I said the person behind this was not the same one who intercepted our parts?" Sydney asked her secretary.Sean nodded. "I see, but who was the one who took our parts?""It was Dallin Sullivan from Jackal City." Sydney
Chapter 1200 A Great Pair of Teacher and StudentThat was for sure.But those students wouldn't be Sydney.Sydney would always be special to Julien.He would always be a gentleman to Sydney.Even now that he was acting as Sydney's teacher, he was gentle and patient with her.Sydney had feared that Julien would lose patience and think her stupid when she couldn't understand what he was saying.She knew Julien was never a patient man.So she had been nervous. She was afraid that Julien would give up on her if she couldn't understand what he was talking about.She would be embarrassed in that situation. And she needed to find herself a new teacher.However, it turned out that Sydney was overly concerned.Julien was very patient with her. When Sydney didn't understand him, he didn't become impatient or think she was stupid. He patiently explained to her until she understood it. He was so patient with her. Nothing made him agitated.Gradually, Sydney learned that he wouldn't be
Chapter 1199 Teacher and StudentSydney's face and tone were both serious.Julien knew that if he was still unwilling to do as he was told, she would definitely do what she had said.Sydney was such a person.Even though their current relationship was close, she was not willing to take much advantage of him."Alas." Julien shook his head resignedly, pulling over her office chair and sitting down. "Is it okay now?"Sydney nodded in satisfaction. "Yes."With that, she also sat down on another chair that was slightly worse and then added, "Julien, don't think that I'm stubborn and unwilling to accept your goodness to me. I know that you want to do more for me, and you also want to let me sit more comfortably. I'm touched, and I accept it too, but if I really accept all of your kindness, especially when you're already helping me, it will only make me more and more greedy. "In the end, I will take all of your goodness to me as a matter of course, and over time, I will even forget t
Chapter 1198 Julien Was Going to Teach SydneySydney's eyes reveal a look of surprise.Julien noticed it, but deliberately teased her, "Why? Can't I come up?""Why not?" Sydney walked up to him and took his hand, smiling. "You're more popular at Skylight than I am. Even if I forbid letting you in, the staff will let you in. What can I do about that?""Nothing." Julien shook his head honestly."That's it!" Sydney pulled him inside. "I didn't think you'd be here this early, though. You usually get here around almost six. It's only a little after five now."So when Sydney saw him, she was surprised."I finished things, so I came over early. Are you done with your work?" Julien followed Sydney. He asked as he glanced at her desk.Sydney's desk was piled high with papers. Julien frowned at the sight. He liked to keep things neat and organized. "You've had a busy day, haven't you?"Otherwise, Sydney's desk wouldn't be this cluttered.Sydney didn't release Julien's hand until she le
Chapter 1197 It Was Good to LeaveYuri was one of Luke's best friends, so he knew very well what kind of person Yuri was.Such a slowcoach did something so quickly. It was conceivable that Luke was very important in Yuri's heart.Otherwise, he wouldn't have taken Luke's request so seriously.So how could Luke not be surprised and happy?As for Sydney, she didn't know Yuri. Nor did she know what kind of person he was.Now, after hearing Luke's words, she realized that Yuri was a person who worked very slowly.However, it was such an inefficient person who did her a favor so quickly. Sydney felt very touched."Maybe it was because you approached him that he did it so quickly, and of course, it was also possible that after being the boss all these years, he became much more efficient." Sydney guessed with a smile.Luke rubbed his chin and nodded. "It makes sense, but whatever the reason, it's good that Yuri got things done quickly.""Yeah, I called you mainly because I wanted yo
Chapter 1196 Strange LukeYet Sean was panicking at the moment.Why?Of course, because she didn't want her lie to be exposed.It was not like she was really leaving the country, so how could she possibly let Sydney see her off? Her lie would be exposed if Sydney went there. Sean held the cell phone with both hands and hurriedly explained, "Because I bought a ticket for an 11 PM flight. It's late, so I don't want to let you go back and forth. It's too troublesome. Besides, if you go to see me off so late at night, Mr. Flint will definitely not feel at ease."That was true.Sydney rubbed her chin. "But why did you choose such a late flight?"Sean continued to lie. "To catch up on my sleep on the plane so that when I get abroad, I can immediately go to work.""I see. Alright, then I won't see you off, but send me a message to let me know you board the plane smoothly. Otherwise, I won't be relieved," Sydney said.Knowing that Sydney had given up on the idea of going to see her
Chapter 1195 Reason for ResignationSydney sighed, "It wasn't the HR department that told me. Gianna went there for something and overheard it by accident, so she told me.""I see." Sean understood.'I can't believe Gianna said it. 'I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence. 'It looked like God didn't want her to hide it from Ms. Raines either. Otherwise, how would Gianna have happened to show up at the HR department at that time?'"So it's true that you are quitting?" Sydney asked, pursing her lips.Sean nodded. "Yes."Sydney's heart sank after she got a definite answer from Sean, the person in question. "Why? There has to be a reason, right? I don't believe you have considered resignation for a long time. Gianna and I didn't hear about you quitting or feel you had the intention before you took a leave of absence and suddenly offered to resign. I never want to believe that nothing has happened to you. At the very beginning, Gianna and I guessed that you had a problem with
Chapter 1194 Sean Had Decided to Gave Birth to the BabyLuke wanted to ask, 'Can't you see I'm not happy?'The words were on his tongue, but he couldn't say them.Upset, Luke took a packet of cigarettes out of his pocket, pulled one out of it, and put it in his mouth. He then took out his lighter and was about to light the cigarette.However, just as the flame neared the cigarette, he suddenly paused. He glanced at the bed on which Sean was drinking the medicine, not paying attention to him. Then he put the lighter away and put the cigarette back in the packet.'I’m not going to smoke it. It's not a good cigarette. I'm going to change cigarettes next time. I didn't quit smoking for that woman.' Luke compressed his lips and thought to himself.Just then, Sean's cell phone rang, which broke the silence of the room.Sean finished her medicine. Her mouth was full of bitterness. She put the bowl back on the bedside table and hurriedly picked up a glass of water and took a sip of wate
Chapter 1193Gianna trusted Luke, so she didn't tell Sydney that Luke also knew Sean had been pregnant.She didn't feel the need to tell Sydney. "Mr. Chase will keep Sean's secret anyway."Convinced of this idea, Gianna had no worries at all. She looked at Sydney and asked, "Ms. Raines, do you think Sean quit the job because the miscarriage hurt her health?""I don't know, but it's possible." Sydney responded, giving a worried look.Sydney didn't have many female friends. Sean and Sharon were her only friends.Sharon followed Cayden to Jackal City. They had very little contact after that.Sydney called Sharon a couple of times, but the phone was never answered. Sydney guessed that Sharon must be busy or Cayden had assigned Sharon some tasks, so Sharon could not answer her calls.Last time when Sydney contacted Sharon, Sharon told her that Cayden didn't trust her and that he wouldn't allow her to follow him around as his bodyguard.Syndey hadn't talked to Sharon in a long time,
Chapter 1192 Sean Wants to Resign"Okay, I'll do it right away." The secretary nodded in response and picked up the file. "Then Ms. Raines, I'll take my leave."Sydney waved her hand. "Go ahead. Thank you.""You're welcome," Gianna smiled faintly and turned to head for the door.But after taking a few steps, she suddenly thought of something, stopped, and turned around. "By the way, Ms. Raines, there's something I don't know if I should say or not.""Just say it." Sydney lifted her chin slightly, signaling Gianna to continue.Seeing this, Gianna no longer hesitated. Standing upright, she said, "Here is the thing. This morning I went to HR Department. Secretarial Department recently needs to recruit a new assistant, so I went over there to ask if there were any suitable candidates.""Well, I know about this." Sydney nodded. "Go on."She knew that what her secretary wanted to say couldn't be this matter.Sure enough, Gianna took a breath and continued, "Then I heard them talking
