"President Flint called to tell me, so I came to visit you," Sydney replied.The Old Madam feigned an angry grunt. "That little brat. I told him not to tell you.""Grandma." Sydney shook her arm petulantly. "Did you not want to tell me because you don't like me?""Of course, not." The Old Madam lovingly stroked Sydney's hair. "I just didn't want you to worry.""But you not telling me is what caused me to worry. If I only found out late that you had fallen, I would've regretted why I didn't know earlier so I could come and see you." Sydney touched the back of the old woman's hand. "Grandma, you can't do this again. You must tell me if anything happens.""Yes, I also think that Syd is right," Felicia finished arranging the flowers and said with approval.The Old Madam laughed so happily she could not close her mouth. "Okay, okay. I'll tell you next time.""That's better." Sydney also laughed."Old Madam, let Syd accompany you. I'll go to the doctor and ask what you need to pay at
Sydney's eyes flashed and she decided to go see a doctor later.She wanted to see what was wrong with her body that made Lyra so concerned."Alright, if you insist." Seeing that Sydney was so insistent, the Old Madam stopped trying to persuade her to see a doctor.Velma snorted coldly. "Mom, I think she just doesn't know what's good for her.""Shut your mouth!" the Old Madam shouted.Velma trembled and she stopped talking.Although the Old Madam was getting old, her aura had never diminished.For so many years, Velma had only dared to complain behind her back and did not dare to openly confront the Old Madam."By the way, Sydney, this is for you." The Old Madam raised her hand and fished out a red rope from under the pillowSomething was dangling from the red rope. It was a key."Grandma, is this what you said you wanted to give me?" Sydney took the key curiously.Velma and Lyra had been wondering what it was, and they immediately lost interest when they saw that it was just
"What?" Sydney was shocked.She knew that Lyra would try to do something to her.However, she did not expect Lyra to tell her to die."You want to kill me?" Sydney clenched her phone and deliberately raised her voice.Julien's expression was extremely unpleasant when he heard this. As soon as he got out of the car, he quickly ran toward the inpatient block. His heart thundered in peril, unable to calm down.Lyra wanted to kill Sydney!The light in Lyra's eyes was terrifying. "Ms. Raines, how could you say something like that so casually? You died because you fell by yourself. It was an accident that had nothing to do with me."With that, she approached Sydney.She had never given up the idea of making Sydney disappear completely. However, she never had a chance after the resort.Now that she realized that Sydney might be pregnant, she could not bear it any longer She had to get rid of Sydney and that b*stard before her pregnancy was exposed, or everything would be finished.L
Sydney did not expect Lyra to be so shameless.She actually did something like pretending to faint!“President Flint, I think Ms. Madden will wake up soon,” Sydney crossed her arms and said coldly.Lyra, who was lying in Julien's arms, clenched her fist slightly when she heard those words.What did that mean?Did Sydney find out that she was just pretending to be unconscious?Julien also caught what Sydney was implying and looked down at Lyra for a few seconds.When he did not see anything unusual, he looked up again. "What do you have in mind?"Sydney smiled. "It's very simple. Just let go. As long as she doesn't faint, she'll definitely have a reaction when she falls to the ground. You can give it a try."Lyra's heart panicked and raced.Sydney came up with such a method to force her to wake up.She was too vicious!Julien frowned. "What kind of method is that? Have you ever considered that Lyra would be injured by the fall if she's unconscious?"Lyra sighed in relief.
"No." The doctor shook his head.Sydney was relieved.That was good.When she saw the doctor's serious expression, she thought she had some terminal illness.“Then, what's wrong with me, Doctor?” Sydney looked at the doctor and asked again.The doctor put down the checklist in his hand. "I'm not too sure. You should go to the obstetrics and gynecology department. Your condition is under the scope of the OB-GYN department.”The OB-GYN department? Sydney's mouth twitched.She just had a stomach ache.Why did she have to go to the OB-GYN department?“Yes, my diagnosis is that you’re pregnant, so I suggest you go there,” the doctor nodded and answered.Sydney's pupils shrank and her mind went blank with a buzz. It took a long time before she recovered to open her mouth and say with a hoarse voice, "I... I'm pregnant?"“I believe so,” the doctor replied.Sydney's body swayed for a moment. She felt like the whole world was spinning.Pregnant.How could she be pregnant?Sydney
Suddenly, there was the sound of soft sobbing.Julien stopped thinking about it and opened the door of the consultation room.Lyra seemed to have suffered a shock. She first froze and then immediately turned around and went inside."Lyra," Julien called out to her.Lyra stopped and raised her hand to wipe her tears before she turned around again with a forced smile on her face. "Julien, you're done talking to Finn?"Julien hummed and stared at her for two seconds before asking, "Did you hear everything?"Lyra nodded, and her eyes which had stopped tearing up once again overflowed with moisture. "Julien, do I... do I really have a dissociative personality disorder?"Julien's thin lips moved. He wanted to say something, but in the end, he said nothing and only hummed in agreement.Lyra covered her face and sobbed. "I'm sorry, Julien. I didn't know. I really didn't know...""It's okay." Julien held her in his arms, feeling heartbroken. "It's not your fault. You don't need to apol
At that thought, Lyra clenched her fists and said in a grim voice, "That's why we mustn't let Julien know that Sydney is carrying his child. At the very least, he can't find out until the child is aborted."Otherwise, with Julien's responsible character, he would remarry Sydney and let her give birth to the child.Finn nodded slightly. "What do you want me to do?"“The James family is a medical family. You should’ve the ability to influence all hospitals in Port City. I want you to keep an eye on Sydney. No matter which hospital's OB-GYN department she goes to, tell her that there's a problem with the child in her belly and that it can't be kept. The best thing is to let her die on the operating table.”Lyra looked at him with a terrible smile.Finn prided himself on not being a good person, but at that moment, he could not help but be stunned at her ruthlessness.In his heart, he could not help but wonder if this ruthless woman in front of him was the little girl who threw cauti
When Julien heard her worried words, he got up from the ground with a soft look in his eyes and wiped his mouth. Just as he was about to answer that he was okay, he saw her pass by him and walk toward Luke.Sydney took Luke's hand and flipped it over. "Is your hand okay?"Luke swept his anger away and chuckled. "Yeah, I'm fine.""That's good." Sydney sighed in relief.Julien's eyes darkened and the air around him instantly became cold. His expression was also very ugly.It seemed like he had been flattering himself. She was not worried about him at all.Well, Luke was her boyfriend, so it was only natural that she was worried about Luke. However, why was his heart feeling so upset?Julien's fists clenched at his sides, his face full of frost.Sydney did not look at him and poked Luke's forehead crossly. "Geez, why did you suddenly hit someone? You scared me to death.""It's his fault for being so shameless." Luke snorted coldly at Julien.Sydney's expression also cooled as sh
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
