Julien frowned deeply.He saved her from the bottom of his heart and did not have any motive for it. Even after saving her, he did not want anything in return.In other words, he never thought of using this favor to ask her to remarry him or get back together with him.However, when he heard her say this preemptively, he felt a trace of anger in his heart in addition to hurt.In her heart, was he a man who took advantage of someone's kindness like this?"Let's talk about it later," Julien lowered his eyes and said in a faint tone.Sydney noticed that his attitude toward her had cooled down, and she knew the reason why as well.However, she did not care. After accepting the change handed over by the doctor, she looked at Julien and said, "Let's go."Julien gave a cold hum and walked to the door.Sydney slung her bag over her shoulder and followed.In the car, neither of them spoke, and the only sound was that of shallow breathing.It was not until they reached the police stat
Cayden went to the forest to shoot for a magazine. He did not expect to see so much news about Sydney popping up on his phone when he left the forest and had coverage again.How dare that woman Lyra falsely accuse Sydney of harming her and discredit Sydney's reputation?There were also those reporters, netizens, and that person who threw sulfuric acid. He would not let any of them off!Sydney heard the suppressed anger in Cayden's voice and knew that the always gentle young man was furious after he heard about what happened to her. She hurriedly said, "Don't worry, Cay. I'm fine.""Are you sure? The sulfuric acid...""The acid didn't splash on me. Many reporters saw what happened. There should be a video on the Internet as well, so you can watch it. I didn't get hurt." Sydney shook her head.Cayden lowered his eyes. "I know. I watched it, but I was still worried.""Are you at ease now?" Sydney chuckled.Cayden hummed. "Yeah. It's good that you're fine, Sis. Leave everything els
Meanwhile, in the hospital, Lyra was also having her statement taken. Two police officers, a man and a woman, sat by her bedside asking her questions."Ms. Madden, let me confirm this. You're sure that Ms. Raines had someone to do this to you?" The male officer looked at Lyra with deep eyes.Next to him, the female officer was recording their conversation.Lyra nodded with certainty. "Yes!""If it turns out that Ms. Raines didn't do it and your actions now will become a form of slander. You'll be legally liable for the damage you dealt with her reputation, and you'll also have to compensate for her psychological damages. Are you sure, Ms. Madden?" The male officer deliberately used a serious tone.When Lyra heard the words “legally liable”, her heart thumped and she remembered what she saw on the live broadcast before. Sydney had said that she would produce the evidence that she did not harm Lyra by midnight.Now, Lyra was very worried that Sydney would be able to get evidence. S
"What is it?" Sophie looked at her.Sydney rubbed her brows. "Has the surveillance feed of the parking lot been sent to the police station?"Sophie nodded. "Although there was a delay due to a traffic jam, it has been delivered."Sydney hummed. "That's good. You can go now.""Okay," Sophie answered with a smile and turned around to go out.Just as she reached the door and was about to open it, someone pushed it in from the outside.Luke rushed in in a flurry and collided with Sophie."Ah!" Sophie lost her balance on her high heels and almost fell.Fortunately, Luke reacted quickly and grabbed her wrist in time, pulling her up."Sorry, sorry. I didn't mean to. Are you okay?" He looked at her in embarrassment and apologized to her.A trace of joy flashed in Sophie's eyes when she looked at his hand holding her wrist, but it quickly disappeared. She shook her head. "I'm fine, President Chase.""That's good." Luke breathed a sigh of relief and let her go before walking to Sydney
Sydney did not know what Julien was thinking. She widened her eyes in surprise. "What? It wasn't you?"Julien hummed.She clenched her phone tightly.'If it wasn't Julien, then it was Cay!'How would Cay be able to do this? He found out the information of these marketing accounts and media so accurately in such a short amount of time!'At that thought, she suddenly remembered what Julien said to her before.He said that Cayden was not simple and told her to be careful.At that time, her reaction was to scoff. However, now, she realized that she was wrong.Cayden was not as simple as she thought."Sydney? What's wrong?" Julien was worried when Sydney stopped talking.She snapped back to her senses and pinched the bridge of her nose. "It's nothing. Since it wasn't you, I'll hang up now."Then, she lowered the phone from her ear and directly ended the call.Julien frowned.He still wanted to talk to her and did not expect her to hang up so soon.With a gloomy expression, he
Finn suddenly opened his eyes. A dark light glimmered in his eyes as he pulled open the drawer and took out his cell phone.When the screen lit up, it showed several missed calls from Lyra, Cayden, and Sydney.He ignored Lyra's calls and dialed Sydney's number.Sydney had not rested yet. She was waiting for Finn to call her.She planned to call at 11:00 PM since she estimated that his operation would be finished by then.Unexpectedly, Finn called when it was only half-past ten.Sydney looked at the name Finn James on her screen, and her face lit up. She hurriedly answered the call, "Is your operation over?""Yeah, it's over." Finn nodded, his voice hoarse with a hint of exhaustion. "Is there anything I can do for you?"Sydney heard the fatigue in his voice and felt a little sorry for disturbing him so late.However, to clear the false accusations regarding herself, she had no choice but to disturb him."There is, actually. Give me a moment. I'll use another phone to contact y
After putting down the phone, Sydney opened her social media platform with her computer and typed: [Thank you all for waiting. A hacker contacted me during the day and said that they would help me release the evidence they found tonight. The evidence will be released immediately. Please stay tuned!]After checking for typos and confirming that there was nothing wrong, Sydney clicked on publish and posted the statement.She originally planned to release these two videos herself, but then dismissed them. Since Finn would be uploading them, it was unnecessary for her to upload them as well.However, she could make a statement on why she said she was so sure that she would get evidence by tonight, explaining that a hacker had contacted her very early on.This way, both the police and others would treat Finn's throwaway account as Cayden's, and would not find out that it was Finn that was behind it. Even if they found that the IP address belonged to Finn, they would think that the hacke
"What do you mean?" Lyra's heart thumped as a huge wave of uneasiness surged in her heart.Clarice took out the new mobile phone that Mrs. Madden bought for her and waved it. "Before I came in, I already saw the evidence released by the hacker helping Ms. Raines. There are two videos. The videos were really interesting. In them, it was you who personally admitted that those six men were supposed to violate Ms. Raines instead.""What?" Lyra's expression changed greatly. Her hands and feet went cold."Give me the phone!" She snatched Clarice's phone.Clarice did not stop her and merely looked at her with a vague smile.Lyra's hands grasped the phone tightly as she watched the videos that Clarice was talking about.When she saw the contents of the two videos, she felt like her brain exploded from a thunderbolt. She was completely stunned, and her mind went blank."How... How could this be?" Lyra's grip went slack, and the phone slipped from her hands and fell on the quilt with a th
