Chapter 583 Midnight IntruderSydney tossed the bathrobe onto Julien and said, "I bought it online a while ago, but it's too big for me. So, you can wear it. Even though it might be a little small for you, it's just for a night. And you can make do."As Julien caught the bathrobe, he answered, "All right.""Go and take a shower and quickly dry your hair before you catch a cold." While she said that, she pointed at the bathroom."Well, I'll be going then." With a nod, he left for the bathroom with the bathrobe in his hands.After he left, she didn't stay in the living room either. Instead, she went to the kitchen to prepare a bowl of ginger soup for him.No matter what, she could not let him catch a cold after he had given her the crystal ball.After slicing the ginger, Sydney turned on the stove and began to make the soup.Once she was done, she took the bowl of soup back to the living room.When she noticed that Julien still hadn't come out of the bathroom, Sydney placed the
Chapter 584 Sydney Was AshamedAfter the phone was hung up, Zach was dumbfounded. He was sitting on his bed. After quite a long time, he came to his senses and exclaimed, "Really, Mr. Flint was at Ms. Raines' home last night. Are they back together?"'It would be great if they got back together!'Then Zach got out of his bed and got dressed. He got work to do.An hour later, he arrived at Shallow Bay.When Julien came to the door, he was in a bathrobe which was actually Sydney’s.Zach froze when he saw Julien in a female bathrobe. Then he burst out laughing, "Mr. Flint..."Julien's face darkened. He gave off a gloomy aura, his eyes stern. He asked, "Is it funny?" "No, it's not funny at all!" Zach sensed that Julien got angry. He put away his smile, stood up straight, and shook his head seriously.Julien's cold eyes narrowed, "If you dare laugh again, I'll send you to Africa and never allow you to see your family again." Then he grabbed the two bags Zach was carrying, turned around, an
Chapter 585 Julien Was in a Good MoodBut Sydney also felt happy.After all, Julien didn't see her when she looked drawn and even didn't wear underwear."It's lucky!" Thinking of that, she touched her face, put down her phone, walked out of her room and looked at the table in front of the couch. As expected, a delicate take-out bag from Imperial Restaurant was on the table.Imperial Restaurant was the most famous and largest restaurant in Port City. It was said that the chief chef had cooked for the state banquets before.Thus, all the dishes of Imperial Restaurant were delicious.However, she was not able to get the membership card with her social status. Thus, she couldn't enter Imperial Restaurant and thus had never tasted the dishes.Thanks to Julien, she had a chance to have a try today.She walked over, picked up the bag, went to the dining table and opened the bag. For an instant, a tantalizing aroma filled the air. It was mouth-watering.She swallowed saliva subconscio
Chapter 586 The Old Madam's KiddingJulien texted Sydney, "I'm downstairs."Seeing the message, Sydney headed to the balcony of her living room. Looking down from the railing, she saw the familiar Maybach parked at the curb. The car looked distinguished.But Julien was not sitting in the car. He was standing by the car, leaning against the door, looking down at his phone.Suddenly, he seemed to sense something. He put down his phone and looked up, and then he met Sydney's eyes.Julien raised his eyebrows in surprise, and then he waved at Sydney.Sydney didn't expect Julien to notice her. After freezing for a moment, she waved back at him."Come down." Julien called out to Sydney.Sydney nodded and replied, "I'll be right down."Then she turned around and left the balcony.Five minutes later, she came downstairs in her high heels, carrying two bags in her hand. Julien wanted to take over the bags from her hands. He walked up to Sydney, who was walking fast. The snow had just m
Chapter 587 Repaving the Path"Have you forgotten that the garden path is rough?" Julien said as he looked down at her almost ten-centimeter-high heels.Sydney instantly remembered something, moved her heels, and murmured, "I see."The garden path was paved with cobblestones. It was not easy to walk on that path in her high heels. To avoid falling, she had to be supported by him."Don't wear such high heels in the future. What if you sprain your ankles?" Julien pursed his lips in disapproval.Sydney glared at him. "It's none of your business.""I'm worried about you." Julien frowned.Sydney lowered her eyes. "No need. Let's go."She walked towards the door ahead of Julien.Julien looked at her back, shook his head resignedly, and followed her.When she reached the garden, Sydney stopped and turned around to wait for the man behind her.The man quickly came over, moved the bags onto the crook of his arm, and extended his hand towards her. "Give me your hand."Sydney original
Chapter 588 Julien Was Rather Concerned About Her“So you’re no longer angry with me?” Julien asked with a smile.The Old Madam rolled her eyes. “If you make this decision on impulse instead of caring about Sydney’s safety, I will definitely give you a good beating.”Julien smiled and didn’t say anything.Sitting by, Sydney felt quite uneasy.She didn’t instigate Julien to repave the path, and fortunately, the Old Madam wasn’t angry.However, this whole thing took place because of her. She couldn’t help feeling a little guilty and she thought that it was all her fault.If she hadn’t worn high heels, Julien wouldn’t have the idea of repaving the path at all.She came here today as a guest, but as soon as she entered the house, she made the owner modify the indoor facilities for her. This made her feel rather stressed.“Grandma, please don’t take Julien’s suggestion. I won’t come here often, and if you do this, I will feel embarrassed.” Sydney took the Old Madam’s hand and hurri
Chapter 589 The Old Madam's RequestSydney looked at the old madam without a word. After all, she was the reason Julien made such a fuss.One moment, he was afraid that she would feel cold, and the next moment, he was scared that the old madam would prolong the chat with her and delay her from resting. But none would happen, and he was just worried for nothing.There was a heater in the pavilion, so Sydney would not feel cold at all. Besides, even if the old madam would chat with Sydney for a long time, it would not hold her up from her rest. After all, she always slept late. However, when faced with Julien's concern and care, she was amused and touched.She knew in her heart that if he did not care about her, he wouldn't have bothered about the details at all."What are you thinking about, Syd? Why are you giggling?" The old madam asked with a gleam in her eyes as she stared at Sydney.There was a flash in Sydney's eyes before she came back to her senses. She waved her hand.
Chapter 590 Julien's Call to Sydney"Are you sure?" Sydney asked Julien's grandmother when she was looking for her phone.Julien's grandmother was slowly sipping her tea. "Julien didn’t want us to talk long, so you can get back to sleep early. Although he said he would give us half an hour, I know him too well. He definitely can't wait half an hour. We'll see."Then the old lady gestured for Sydney to look at her phone.Sydney took her phone out and glanced at it. She raised her delicate eyebrows and couldn't help but smile, "You're right! It's Julien.""I told you. Well, answer it. Otherwise, Julien will come over soon." The old lady shook her head helplessly, a wry smile on her face.Sydney slid on the screen with her slender finger and answered the phone, "Hello?""Are you done talking to Grandma?" Julien's low, pleasant voice came over the phone.Sydney nodded slightly, "Almost.""Let the maid bring you back. It’s late." Julien said.Sydney rubbed her brows. "No rush. I w
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
