“That’s right. I also found out that Lyra is looking for Clarice,” Hunter said. Sydney raised her eyebrow. “So what? Isn’t this normal? Clarice is her sister. It’s normal for Lyra to look for her.” “No, no, no. Lyra is not looking for her sister because of the sisterhood but to send Clarice far away from Port City. She wants to make sure that Clarice wouldn’t show up in front of Brandon Madden and his wife.” “Why?” Sydney widened her eyes. Hunter pursed his lips. “What else could it be? She’s just selfish. If she is the only child of the Maddens, she will be the only successor of Trison Corporation. However, if Clarice comes back, she will not be the only one.” “I understand now. Clarice is a threat to her position,” Sydney said in realization. Hunter replied, “Bingo. You are absolutely right. I even heard that Brandon Madden has just disbanded a team of elites in the company. Take a guess on what the team does.” “What?” Sydney asked. Hunter said, “The team of elites wa
It was so late in the day. Why were Hunter and Sydney here, and where did the child between them come from?"President Flint, why don't you go and say hello?" Zach suggested carefully. He was standing behind Julien, so he naturally saw Sydney and Hunter as well.Julien lowered his eyes. "No need."Zach shrugged.'In that case, let’s leave.'However, you don't want to leave and insist on watching them. Why are you deliberately making yourself upset?'Zach secretly sighed and pushed the rim of his glasses, saying, "With Ms. Raines and Mr. Cohen holding a child, they really do look like a family of three."The words 'a family of three' triggered Julien.His expression darkened, and his voice went cold. "How do they look like a family?""I think they do." Zach heard the jealousy in Julien's tone, and his lips curled into a grinOn the other hand, Julien's lips pursed into a thin line. "I think you need to change your glasses."Zach pretended not to understand and cleared his thr
However, Sydney did not think much about it and merely hummed in response.The Ferris wheel turned slowly.Sydney watched as Davey's pod gradually rose. When he waved at her, she could not help but smile and wave back.When Hunter saw that, he put down his hot chocolate and waved as well.However, as if Davey had guessed that Hunter would do that, he turned around to sit down with his back toward Hunter before the latter could wave.Hunter was stunned.Sydney snickered and started laughing in amusement.Hunter facepalmed himself. "That brat did it on purpose.""Davey is so cute." Sydney looked at Davey and said while wiping tears from her eyes.Hunter smiled at her words. "As long as you're happy.""Hm?" Sydney looked at him curiously, not understanding what he meant.He waved his hand. "Nothing."Sydney blinked. "You're acting strange today. Even the way you talk is so mysterious.""Is that so? Haha..." Hunter scratched the back of his head and laughed dryly.Sydney took
Zach pulled on his hair.Sydney and Hunter had been separated, but what about the kid? Why was he still with Sydney?Would Hunter be coming back later?Julien's expression darkened at Zach's words.It was bad enough that Sydney did not leave, but why did Hunter leave his nephew with her too?"Where are they now?" Julien pursed his lips and asked.Zach replied, "At the spinning teacups. Ms. Raines is having fun with Davey."Having fun...Julien raised his brows.He never imagined she was childish enough to go on those rides."All right. Keep an eye on them. Don't let Sydney lose sight of the child," Julien commanded in a low voice.Zach held in his laughter as he nodded. "Understood."Do not let Sydney lose sight of the child?It was clear that President Flint just wanted to know what Ms. Raines was doing at all times. However, he could not bring himself to say it, so he was using the child as an excuse.In the meantime, at the rotating teacups, Davey laughed happily. "Aun
"Davey, can you be a good boy and walk by yourself?" Sydney bent down and asked Davey before Julien could speak.She knew Julien. He was a neat freak, so he did not like children that much.It would be impossible for him to carry Davey.Davey blinked and put his little arms down. "Okay, I'll walk by myself.""You're such a good boy, Davey. Go on then." Sydney rubbed the child's hair with a smile. Then, she looked at Julien. "President Flint, I'll leave Davey to you."Julien hummed and took the initiative to hold Davey's hand before walking toward the washroom.In the washroom, Davey was too short to reach the urinal.As such, Julien had no choice but to lift the child up by his armpits. With a dark expression, he said, "Take off your pants yourself. Hurry up."Davey pursed his little lips and lowered his head to unzip his pants.Julien's forehead throbbed when he heard the splashing sound.He never thought that he would have to help someone go to the toilet one day.Moreover
Julien lowered his eyes so that no one could see the real emotion in them. "No, I just wanted to know what the restaurant manager wanted to say."His expression was so calm that it did not seem like he was lying.Sydney nodded and believed him. "I see."It seemed like she had overthought it.Well, he hated her so much. Why would he deliberately let the manager misunderstand that they were husband and wife?"But why did you agree to take part in the activity, President Flint?" Sydney looked up at Julien.Julien's thin lips moved. "It's for Davey. He's Hunter's nephew, and I'm Hunter's friend. It's only natural for me to take care of Davey."He did not want her to know that he only wanted to participate for her.As for what the reason was, he was not sure either."Alright." Sydney shrugged, indicating that she understood him.She did not doubt Julien's words.Julien and Hunter were indeed good friends, and it was only natural to take care of a good friend's nephew.Without sp
Sydney touched her belly, and a gentle smile gradually appeared on her face.Julien's eyes darkened when he saw that.'She doesn't seem to hate the child in her belly that much.'In that case, why...'"Mom." Julien's thoughts were interrupted by Davey.Davey shook Sydney's arm and complained again. "Dad bullied me."Sydney snapped back to her senses and looked at Davey. "How did Uncle... Dad bully you?"That was close. She almost exposed them.Fortunately, she caught it in time."Dad pinched my face." Davey pointed to his face and looked at Julien smugly.Julien's expression sank.'This little brat...'"Let me see." Sydney did not notice the contest between the two and lowered her head to examine the little one's face seriously.When she saw the red marks on the boy's face, she frowned. "Julien Flint, Davey is just a kid. Don't you know how to hold back?"She reprimanded Julien while hugging Davey with an aching heart.It made Davey even more proud of himself, and he rai
In any case, it was not the first time Julien and her kissed by mistake anyway.The other time was in the kitchen of Mr. Clarke's equestrian park villa.Thus, there was no need for her to be concerned. She would just think of it as getting bitten by a dog.At that thought, Sydney took a deep breath and looked at the man beside her.He already had the playing card on his lips and was waiting for her.She clenched her fists, telling herself several times in her mind not to make a mistake again, before leaning over to press her lips against the card.Julien's eyes darkened when he felt the warmth from the other side of the card.However, in less than two seconds, the temperature disappeared along with the card.Julien's eyes lowered as a feeling of loss suddenly rose from the bottom of his heart.Soon, the time was up.The manager announced the top three families, Team One, Team Three, and Team Five.Sydney's team was Team Five.Davey clapped his hands happily. "Mom, we got in
