Chapter 1058 Two Childish MenSydney possessed great intelligence, making it impossible for her to overlook this matter.Julien shared the same level of intellect.However, by some stroke of fate, neither Sydney nor Julien had any intention of stepping forward to clear the air.They didn't even attempt to suppress the frenzy online that had ensued.The only plausible explanation that came to mind was that these two individuals must be plotting something.Why else would they prolong a situation like this?Julien couldn't just sit by.He loved Sydney so much that he would never see her subject to cyber abuse. Yet, he had done nothing.There were definitely underlying issues at play.Ruminating on the situation, Luke speculated that his mother had foreseen this and prevented him from stepping forward to clarify. Instead, she had instructed him to ask Sydney about it, so as not to disrupt Sydney's plans."Other plans..." Sydney murmured to herself.Luke nodded quickly and remar
Chapter 1059 You Lied to Me AgainJulien didn't forget to lift his chin with a proud expression toward Luke after Sydney finished speaking.Although he didn't say a word, his feelings were already written all over his face. 'Look, how well Leaf knows me!'Luke read Julien's face. Luke's mouth twitched a few times, and he trembled with anger.'This bastard!'The two people's small movements, naturally, were seen by Sydney.But Sydney just pretended that she didn't know it.Anyway, these two men were childish as hell whenever they got together.'Let them be.'As long as they won't fight.'"Forget it." Luke waved his hand resignedly. "Even if you lie to me, I won't be angry with you."The implication was that he didn't blame Sydney for lying to him.Sydney smiled, "Thank you, Luke."Luke waved his hand again, indicating that thanks were not necessary.Then Julien said, "Leaf, I didn't expect you to trust me so much. I'm very happy."Sydney didn't ask Julien if he believed i
Chapter 1060 Sydney's QuestioningJulien's eyes flickered for a moment, and he didn't say anything.Sydney was even more silent.The meeting room was quiet all of a sudden, and a pin drop could be heard.After a while, Luke jumped up in anger. "Well, it looks like I was really right. The person behind the trouble is your suitor. I feel that Syd suffered from all this aggression and scolding because of you, Julien. This is the second time, right? Greta and now another one. Will there be a third one next time? Huh?"He questioned loudly.Julien wrinkled his brows for a moment and then stood up. "This matter was indeed caused by me. I will give an explanation to Leaf.""Hmph, what's the use of it?" Luke sneered disdainfully. "You have so many suitors. After you handle this one, there will certainly be a new one. Why should Syd suffer all the time? If I had known such things would happen, I would never have agreed to Syd's getting back together with you. You are the bane of her life
Chapter 1061 What Will You Do?"You mean Erin?" asked Julien, raising an eyebrow.'What does it have to do with Mr. McDaniel's granddaughter?'What is Sydney up to?'"So Mr. McDaniel's granddaughter is called Erin." Sydney smiled faintly, "Quite a cute name. You still haven't answered me. What is your impression of Miss McDaniel?""I've almost forgotten her." Julien thought for a moment. All that came to mind was a childish and vague face."What?" That answer made Sydney freeze.Originally, she thought that since Julien respected Mr. McDaniel so much, he must have a deep impression of Mr. McDaniel's family.Julien's answer surprised her.Moreover, Sydney could see that Julien was not lying."How can you have forgotten her? Isn't she Mr. McDaniel's granddaughter? You must know each other well. You two are childhood sweethearts, right?" Sydney pursed her lips and looked at Julien.Julien frowned, reached out, and flicked her forehead. "I learned from Mr. McDaniel, not his gran
Chapter 1062 I Won't Even Give You the ChanceLuke said what Sydney meant, so she shut her mouth and acquiesced.Julien's hands were clenched again, his knuckles crackling.Julien stared at Sydney, saying clearly and firmly, "I'm not going to let you break up with me, and I'm not even going to give you that chance."He'd loved her for over a decade. He'd once lost her and then almost risked his life to regain her.How could Julien allow Sydney to break up with him?He wouldn't even let her think about it.Sydney saw Julien's meaning in his eyes, her heart trembling. Finally, she said, "So, you are planning to choose me rather than your teacher, right?"In front of Luke, Julien held Sydney in his arms, his big hand pressed against the back of her head. He said with a devout expression, "Yes."Although Sydney expected this, hearing Julien say this, she was surprised for a while.She gently retreated from Julien's arms, tilted her head to look at him, and replied, "Are you sure?
Chapter 1063 Trust Me, OkayJulien's face was livid and disturbing.If Luke hadn't brought it up, he wouldn't have known.He didn't suspect that Luke was lying; after all, he could always investigate if he wanted to.Luke wasn't afraid of it, so it must be true.Originally, he thought that his teacher and Erin had only changed in character in the past few years.But it turned out that they had already changed eight years ago.Or perhaps, they hadn't changed at all.Perhaps they had always been like this, but they just hadn't shown their true colors in front of him.To his surprise, they were such despicable people."Sorry," Julien said, taking Sydney's hand. "I know that my teacher has always been protective of his people, but I didn't expect him to go so far as doing these things in my name."Sydney lowered her eyes and said nothing.Luke pointed at Julien. "Syd, you see, he has admitted that Mr. McDaniel is blindly protective of his people. So, if Julien pursues this matt
Chapter 1064 A Phone Call from ZackJulien's words were so absolute that Sydney was left speechless, but her heart swelled with happiness.Julien had made his choice, and that was siding with her.In this case, she would have nothing to worry about. Julien would not deliberately play down the matter because Mr. McDaniel was his teacher.It wasn't that she was hard-hearted and wanted to force Julien to break ties with his teacher, nor did she want to hold onto the matter and make Miss McDaniel pay the price.Rather, she knew that if she went soft and let them go because of their connections with Julien, they wouldn't be grateful.On the contrary, they would see it as a sign of her weakness and continue to cause her trouble.Sometimes, people must not be soft-hearted or worry about relationships, or it would promise trouble.Most importantly, the McDaniel family had connections with Julien, not her.Sydney's eyes flickered for a moment.Luke, who had originally doubted Julien a
Chapter 1065 He Wanted a KissNoticing Sydney listening to their conversation on the phone, Julien gave an imperceptible smile. He then put the phone down from his ear and turned on the speaker.Immediately, Zach's voice on the phone got louder and Sydney knew Julien had found out about her. She was embarrassed.She felt ashamed of eavesdropping on Julien's call.'Anyway, Julien found out that I was eavesdropping on his calls. Now I don't need to eavesdrop. I can clearly hear their conversation.'Thinking about this, Sydney straightened her body.Julien turned on the speaker intentionally in order for Sydney to hear clearly. She didn't need to lean her body to eavesdrop on their conversation.On the other end of the line, Zach didn't know that Julien had turned on the phone's speaker. In response to Julien's question, he smirked, "Jerry's a coward. I thought he would deny everything when I went to him. However, just as I took out the wrench, he was so terrified that his face turned pal
