Chapter 553 Sean's DeterminationSydney nodded her head. She was honest, "Yes."Luke's face instantly darkened, "What did my mom say to you?""She just talked about our relationship. She didn't say anything else." Sydney looked at Luke.Luke clenched his fists, "This is my business. How can she interfere?"Seeing Luke get angry, Sydney frowned, "Luke, your mother cares about us.""I don't need her to do that!" Luke was so angry that his face was all red."Luke...""All right!" Luke took a deep breath, tried to suppress his indignation, and said, "Okay, darling... No, Syd. Is it okay if I call you Syd?"Hearing Luke's new name for her, Sydney smiled and nodded, "Sure."Luke's face eased a bit at Sydney’s smile. "I'm sorry, did I scare you? My mom called me and said she had talked to you. She told me not to be obsessed with you. I was worried that she might say something rude to you, so I came to see you."Sydney nodded in a daze, "So that's what happened. Don't be anxious. She didn't sa
Chapter 555 A Person Who Had Undergone Plastic SurgeryShe remembered that she hadn't asked a flight attendant to bring her a blanket before she took the medicine and fell asleep.So, it was probable that Julien covered her with the blanket.As expected, Julien nodded. "I was afraid that you would catch a cold, so I asked the flight attendant to bring me the blanket."Hearing this, Sydney felt warm. "Thank you.""Can you stand up?" Julien looked at her and asked.Since she looked weak when she had just woken up, he was a little worried about whether she could walk.Sydney moved her legs. "Yes. Although the medicine against airsickness still makes me a little weak, as I stay awake, the residual effect of the medicine will gradually dissipate. So, it won’t affect me.""Okay, let's go." Julien took her bag.Sydney thought he would put it on her shoulder.But the next second, she saw Julien put her bag on his shoulder.Julien, almost 1.9 meters tall, was very handsome, looking like a king.
Chapter 557 She Saw Madeline AgainJulien smiled. When he was about to say something, he heard some noises.He narrowed his eyes, pulled Sydney and turned around suddenly. He rushed into the staircase and hid behind the fire door.Sydney wore a thin dress. He was afraid that she would feel cold if she leaned against the wall.Thus, as soon as he arrived behind the fire door, he put his arms around her waist, took her to gyrate and leaned against the wall by himself.Sydney was in his arms. She raised her hands to push against his chest."You..." She widened her eyes and wanted to ask what he was doing.Suddenly, he hushed her and said in a low voice, "Don't move. Keep silent."Seeing that he was so serious, she nodded subconsciously. Although she felt confused, she kept silent.As soon as she shut up, she heard some noises.A man and a woman were flirting and laughing.Through the door crack, she could vaguely see the man and the woman hugging each other and walking towards them. Besid
Chapter 559 Earthquake 'It was arousing?''What does he mean?'‘I was also here and had listened to the whole process, but I didn't find it arousing at all.’ ‘On the contrary, I felt nauseous.’ Therefore, Sydney thought it was simply an excuse, which was used by Julien to kiss her.Seeing that Sydney's eyes were red with anger, Julien took out his hand from his pants pocket and gently touched her head. "Well, I admit that it’s an excuse, but I really couldn’t help kissing you. My beloved was in my arms and took the initiative to give me a kiss, so how could I not kiss you back?" Sydney originally wanted to take his hand off her head, but when she heard his words, her hand which was in the air suddenly lost strength and hung down again. The blush on her face was deepening, and she looked away while whispering, "I... I didn't take the initiative to kiss you. Those two people kept banging on the door, and the door hit me. That was why I accidentally kissed you." "I know." Julien nodd
Chapter 561 Call Him Julien"Really?" Julien raised his chin, but he didn’t ask her again. Instead, he squatted down and put the high heels in front of her feet. "Put them on.""Okay," Sydney replied. Then she leant against the wall, ready to put on the high heels.At this moment, Julien stood up suddenly, held her hand and put it on his shoulder.Sydney looked at him in confusion. "What are you doing?""Lean against me to put on the high heels," Julien explained."Don’t bother. I can lean against the wall," Sydney said and was about to withdraw her hand.But Julien held her hand tightly. "The wall is cold but my shoulder is warm."Hearing this, Sydney was amused. "You're really... Well, since you're willing to be a wall, I’ll satisfy your wish."She gripped his shoulder with one hand, raised her foot and started to put on high heels with the other hand.After putting on the high heels, Sydney withdrew her hand. "Thank you, Mr. Wall."Hearing what she addressed him as, Julien raised hi
Chapter 563 Julien's WorrySydney turned a deaf ear to Madeline’s scream, still pulling her hair tightly. She turned on the tap with her other hand and plugged the sink.Hearing the rushing sound of water, Madeline felt extremely uneasy in an instant. “What are you going to do?”“What am I going to do?” Sydney said with a smile, “You will soon know, and it will become an unforgettable experience for you."“Fuck you! Sydney, let me go now!” Sydney shouted with a ferocious expression. At the same time, she tried to shake off Sydney’s hands and get her hair out of her tight grip.But Madeline inherited her height and figure from her mother Kaylie. She was short and small, and therefore, her strength was no match for Sydney’s.What was more, driven by great anger, Sydney had greater strength now.After struggling desperately for a while, Madeline became tired and sweaty instead of pulling her hair back.Madeline barely raised her head and stared at Sydney with hatred. “You crazy bi
Chapter 564 Madeline's AmbitionAnd by then, he would leave her behind once again.So he couldn't let anything happen to her, and he must not be stimulated before he had his heart changed. He wanted to survive and live with her for the rest of his life.As she heard the worry in Julien's voice, a warm current flowed through Sydney's heart, and she smiled slightly. "I'm sorry for making you anxious."She raised her hand and patted his back gently to comfort him.Julien gradually calmed down. "Tell me if you will be away for so long in the future."He cupped her face with one hand, looking at her.Seeing his serious look, Sydney subconsciously nodded. "OK."Hearing this, Julien was satisfied and stopped frowning. "Do you have anything else to do?""No." Sydney shook her head.She came here to attend her friend's engagement ceremony and talk about business.Now both things were done."Then let's go back." Julien raised his wrist and looked at his watch.It was almost midnight
Chapter 565 Madeline Tried to Sow Discord Between Sydney and Julien"Sydney?" said Manuel, thinking the name was familiar. After thinking for a moment, he remembered something. He snapped his fingers and exclaimed, "So I remember! My fiancée talks about you a lot, and so does Mr. Flint! It's an honor to meet you!"Manuel held out his hand to Sydney.Looking at the man's hand, Sydney frowned. She didn't want to take his hand.But she wasn't Julien who could just ignore the man.Sydney had no choice but to take his hand. If she offended this man, he might cause trouble for her later, especially now that she was abroad, in his sphere of influence.Sydney curled the corners of her mouth helplessly and forced a smile. She reached out to take Manuel's hand.Just then, Julien suddenly reached out his hand and stopped her.Sydney looked at Julien in surprise.Julien shook his head gently at her, and then he looked at Manuel, "It is not necessary to shake hands."Seeing Julien's domin
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
