Chapter 458 Julien's IntentionsSeeing him eat, Sydney put the spoon back into the bowl and asked in a tone of expectation, "How does it taste?""Delicious." Julien swallowed the porridge and nodded.Sydney smiled. "That's good."Her efforts were not in vain. To make the porridge tasty, she soaked the ingredients, simmered the porridge, and kept stirring it."Go on." Sydney scooped porridge and handed it over.She soon fed Julien a full bowl of porridge.Sydney stood up. "Do you want some more?""I'm already full." Julien shook his head.Sydney looked at the bowl in her hand and frowned slightly. "You're full? You haven't eaten much."And this bowl was not big.He was a 1.9-meter-tall man. She didn't believe that he was full."Yes." Julien took the mouthwash from the caregiver and replied, "I had an IV while you were away this afternoon, and that medicine made me feel a bit bloated.""I see." Sydney nodded. "Then I won't persuade you. I'll put the rest in the fridge. You c
Chapter 459 Be Fair to Julien"If that were the case, we would have been late. Burton would probably have fled the country by now." Zach said in a heavy tone, his brows furrowed.Julien nodded, "Once Burton goes abroad, it's almost impossible to find him."It was such a vast world. Who knew which country Burton went to?Although Julien had some power abroad, it was very limited compared to his power at home. If Burton made up his mind to hide himself, Julien could do nothing."Yeah." Zach sighed.Julien rubbed his fingers. "Arrange people to keep an eye on Cayden at all times. If Cayden sends someone out of Jackal city, he might have found Burton.""Yes, Mr. Flint," Zach nodded.Julien looked at his watch, "All right. You can leave now. Come back in the morning.""Okay." Zach then turned to leave.Shortly after Zach left, Julien got out of his bed. He took Sydney's bag and walked toward the companion room adjoining his ward.Arriving at the door, Julien quietly opened it.T
Chapter 460 Julien Didn't Want to Say Goodbye to Sydney"Of course, I'm happy! This is the first time I've heard you defend me in front of Luke." Julien said as he leaned against the head of the bed.Sydney's eyes twinkled, and then she lowered her eyelids, "You saved my life. Certainly, I must defend you. Otherwise, what kind of person would I be?""Just because of that?" Julien looked at her.Sydney's heart flipped. Her eyes dropped even lower, "What else could it be?"Julien didn't say anything else but stared at her.After a while, he spoke again, "I know. It’s fine. Let's have breakfast first." He gestured to the lunchbox at the bedside.The caregiver brought it earlier in the morning.Sydney looked toward it and nodded her head. Then she walked over and opened the box.She divided the breakfast into two portions, one for Julien and the other for herself.She put her breakfast aside. Then she picked up Julien's breakfast, walked over to his bed, and sat down at his bedsi
Chapter 461 Sydney Was Annoyed"OK. Take your time." Luke waved his hand.Sydney went back to her room, got her clothes, and then went to the bathroom.Luke sat down on the couch and turned on the TV with the remote control. He then watched TV while waiting for Sydney to finish her shower.After about ten minutes, Sydney came out.Her hair was wet, and her cheeks had a slight flush. Her eyes were misty. She looked innocent and tempting, which made Luke excited.Luke's eyes sparkled. He couldn't help but exclaim, "Whoa! Darling, why are you coming out like this? Are you tempting me?"Sydney rolled her eyes at him, "When did I tempt you?""Aren't you tempting me now? When a woman comes out of the shower, it's a deadly temptation for a man. Darling, aren't you tempting me?"Before Luke could finish his sentence, Sydney threw a doll at him.It hit Luke's forehead. Luke deliberately fell on the couch and let out a groan.Sydney clapped her hands, "Stop talking about that nonsens
Chapter 462 Won't Fall in Love with HimSydney looked at Luke's black eyes and felt as if he could see her through. She finally stopped lying and admitted. "Alright. I admit that I'm a little angry. Do men all dislike to express their whole thoughts?""What do you mean?" Luke blinked.She withdrew her hand from the lock of the car window. "When men want to say something, they always say parts of what they want to say and stop abruptly after they arouse others' curiosity.""So you feel unhappy for such a trivial matter?" Luke felt ridiculous.She compressed her lips and said, "I just feel that I have been tricked."Luke looked at her and said seriously, "Darling, don't you feel that you're strange recently?"She felt confused and asked, "Why do you say so?"Luke held the steering wheel tightly and said, "I mean your attitude towards the matters about Julien. You had been aloof towards him since you divorced him. You didn't care about him no matter what he had done. However, have
Chapter 463 A Mysterious AlbumSeeing her step in directly, Luke felt that he was not even as brave as a woman if he didn’t walk in.Taking a deep breath, Luke shivered and then followed Sydney into the old house.As the old house wasn’t inhabited for a long time, it was covered with cobwebs and dust, looking like a haunted house in a movie.‘It’s no wonder that Luke asked whether there were ghosts or not,’ Sydney touched the dust on a table and thought."Darling." Luke's voice came from behind.Sydney brushed the dust off her hands. "What's up?""Where is your grandpa's notebook?" Luke asked while waving a long broom he got from somewhere.Sydney pointed at the study. "Over there. But the house is too dirty. Let’s clean it up and then look for the notebook.""Yeah. The house should be cleaned. Otherwise, we can't stay here tonight." Luke nodded in agreement.Sydney opened the suitcase and took out a few towels. "Let's begin.""Well, you clean the tables and chairs. And I'll
dChapter 464 Dallin Sullivan in Loughtown‘What’s the matter? Who is this baby?’ Looking at the baby with a pale face that seemed to have no vital signs in the photo, Sydney couldn’t help clenching her hands. Her eyes were full of shock, confusion, puzzlement, and even a trace of unspeakable strange feeling. The time in the lower right corner of the photo showed that she was four months and five days old at that time, but Sydney found that the baby in the photo was not her. She had seen all her photos except when she was a month and two months old. When she was four months old, she didn't look like this at all! So the baby in the photo was definitely not her.If it was not her, then why was the time in the lower right corner consistent with the previous photo? And not only was the date consistent but also the appearance of the baby was consistent. In the first month of life, babies's specific appearances could not be seen. But from the second month onwards, the baby's appearan
Chapter 465 A Call in the DreamJulien didn't feel much surprised at the answer from Zach.Because when he asked, Julien already knew the answer.He tapped on the document. After a few seconds, Julien narrowed his eyes and said, "In that case, continue to keep an eye on Dallin. Once this person makes a move, immediately report to me."Whether Dallin was Julien's father's murderer or not, Julien was going to have people watch Dallin.Julien wouldn't let anyone suspicious go."Okay, Mr. Flint." Zach nodded, thought of something else, and added, "There is one more thing.""What is it?""The Graham family seems to be at odds with the Leigh family.""Why?" Julien asked.Zach pushed the glasses. "Nathan was caught having an affair by Macy. Macy pushed Nathan downstairs in anger, and Nathan broke a leg. Because of this, the Leigh family had a row with the Graham family, and Nathan asked for a divorce.""Have they divorced?" Julien raised his eyebrows.Zach shook his head. "No. Mac
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
