Chapter 1076 Mr. McDaniel's Scheme"What do you mean?" Sydney instinctively sat up straight.'His talk with Mr. McDaniel was unpleasant?'How could it be?'It was known to all that Julien was the student Mr. McDaniel was most proud of, and Julien always respected his teacher.She couldn't imagine an unpleasant talk between them.But Luke's words gave her a clue."Was it because of me?" Sydney asked, looking at him.Julien remained silent."I see." Sydney curled her lips, her mood unknown.Her reaction was quite indifferent.After all, Mr. McDaniel was not her teacher or family.So, whether he liked her or not, she didn't care."What did you guys say?" Although Sydney didn't care about what Mr. McDaniel thought of her, she wanted to know what caused their dispute.Julien frowned slightly, unwilling to talk about it.Luke rolled his eyes. "Come on, man. What's the big deal? It's related to Syd, and she deserves to know. How did she offend your teacher?"Sydney remained no
Chapter 1077 Reveal Evidence to the Investigation TeamJulien didn't refute Luke. Obviously, he believed what Luke said.Luke reminded Julien of something he hadn't been paying attention to.Now Julien thought about what Luke said, and he thought Luke had a point.Julien closed his eyes and calmed himself. When he opened his eyes, his eyes were dark.Everyone knew Julien didn't want to let it go so easily. He just hid his emotions in the darkness of his eyes."I know. I'll take care of this." Julien let go of Sydney's face and responded nonchalantly to Luke.Luke shrugged his shoulders. "I hope you won't let us down."Julien didn’t respond. Just as he was about to say something to Sydney, his cell phone rang again.After he'd hung up the call earlier, he left his cell phone on Sydney's desk.When his cell phone rang, everybody’s attention was drawn to the phone.It was Zach. Julien picked up the phone. "What’s up?""Mr. Flint," Zach reported, "Mr. McDaniel just called me an
Chapter 1078 The Insincere Apologies"Brandon, Dallin, the media outlets, and the Internet troll are going to pay for what they did. What are your thoughts on the McDaniel family?" Julien looked at Sydney and asked the question again.Sydney rubbed her temples and replied, "I don't know."Julien stared at her steadily and asked again, "You don't know, or are you thinking about me?"Sydney's fingers pressed to her temples paused slightly.It was quite subtle, but Julien noticed it.Julien realized at once that he'd guessed right.It wasn't that Sydney didn't know how to get back at Erin.It was easy to think of many ways to get back at someone.But Sydney said she didn't know because she was thinking about him.Julien sighed, "No need to consider me. Just do what you want with it.""I know." Sydney gave Julien a smile. "I know you don't want me to be hurt by others, but I don't want you to be criticized either. Though you don't care about that, I can't stand it. There's no ru
Chapter 1079 Into Trouble Again"That's right." Luke laughed with relief. Then he thought of something and sneered, "Anyway, I'm speechless when it comes to these people. If they want to rely on apologies to preserve their positions, they should apologize sincerely. If they were to apologize to all of us genuinely, I might have some respect for them. But they chose to apologize only to you, exposing their true intentions. Such people are foolish!"He glanced at Julien and continued, "Dude, you can't let them off easily just because they suddenly came to apologize to Syd.""Idiot!" Julien snorted.His remark annoyed Luke.Just as Luke was about to roll up his sleeves and confront Julien, Sydney quickly gestured for him to calm down. "Alright, knock it off. I won't let them off the hook, and neither will Julien. Your worries are unnecessary."Just as Luke had just said, if these media outlets had sincerely apologized to the two of them, maybe she would have shown some leniency.Bu
Chapter 1080 Luke Asked for TroubleSydney glared at Luke and hissed, "Don't you expect something good to happen to me?"Julien also gave a solemn look. Luke was a bit intimidated. He waved his hand and gave a smile. "Sorry, Syd. I was joking. Don't get mad at me.""Hmph!" Sydney looked away and ignored him.Seeing her put down her glass of water, Julien asked softly, "Is it about Greta?"Although Julien asked the question, he was pretty sure of it.It was Sydney who called the police to report the matter about Greta, so it was the only possible reason Sydney was summoned to the police station.Julien contacted the police about ZX and the Squirrel team's bosses. If the police wanted to get more details about this matter, they should have contacted Julien, not Sydney.Therefore, Julien guessed that the police called Sydney because of Greta's matter.It turned out Julien's guess was right. Sydney nodded her head. "Yes. This case is many days old. Dallin got Greta a lawyer, so ge
Chapter 1081 Luke Likes Sean"Yes." Sydney put her phone in her bag, leaned back in her seat, and stretched herself like a lazy cat. She curled up in the seat and replied softly, "Luke and Sean were classmates in college, and they worked together for several years. During these years, their relationship was only that of superiors and subordinates. Sean never revealed her feelings for Luke, and Luke didn't dislike Sean either. It was only after that accident that their relationship changed dramatically, and Luke's attitude toward Sean became extremely bad.""I don't think Luke hates your secretary. He just doesn't want to admit something, so he unconsciously changes his attitude toward her. It's as if he can hide certain changes and things from others by doing so," Julien said, looking at the road ahead.Sydney was stunned. "What do you mean?""Can't you see?" Julien stopped the car when the traffic light turned red and looked back at her. "What I mean is that Luke doesn't hate your
Chapter 1082 Julien Almost Had Caused an AccidentJulien was a man of intelligence, but his intellect was mostly used for business. When it came to relationships, he was not that intelligent.At least, Sydney didn't think he could tell Luke had feelings for Sean, let alone give advice about their relationship.However, today Julien could tell that Luke had feelings for Sean and he even guessed what would happen if they pointed it out.Sydney couldn't have even imagined this before.Something must have happened to Julien, which she didn’t know about.Seeing Sydney have a confused look on her face, Julien lifted his hand against his lips, made a cough, and explained, "I've been reading some books lately so I can tell Luke has feelings for your secretary.""You were reading some books?" Julien asked, "What kind of books are so amazing?""Books about intimate relationships." Julien dropped his hand back on the steering wheel.Sydney raised her eyebrows. "Why are you reading about
Chapter 1083 Brandon's PanicAs the man listened to her words and admitted his mistake, Sydney's heart softened.She waved her hand and said, "It's alright as long as you won't do it again. But why did you suddenly do that just now?""Because I'm so happy," Julien said with a smile."Happy?" Sydney looked sideways at him and asked, "What are you happy about?""Your promise." Julien's lips curled further. "You said that as long as I won't betray you, you won't leave me no matter what difficulties we face. Since I'll never fail you in my life, that's considered a lifetime commitment, and it makes me happy."He chested out proudly.Sydney could imagine that he was wagging it if he had a tail.'Does that make him so happy?'Sydney shook her head and chuckled. "Even so, you shouldn't have suddenly stopped the car. It was dangerous.""Don't worry. I promise I'll only hold and kiss you in safe places."Sydney blushed and grunted, "Bah! That's not what I mean. I just want you to be
