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
