Sydney pursed her pale lips. “I slipped, but I don’t think it’s that simple.”

“Do you suspect something, darling?” Luke looked at her.

Sydney nodded. “I slipped because I stepped on something slippery when I came out of the cubicle, and I smelled a fragrance the moment I fell. It was probably shower gel or something similar.”

“Why was there shower gel in front of your cubicle?” Luke’s eyes widened in surprise.

“I don’t know.”

“Could it be that someone accidentally dropped their shower gel and spilled it in front of your cubicle, and you were just unlucky enough to step on it?” Luke stroked his chin and guessed.

Sydney narrowed her eyes slightly. “That’s possible, but not probable.”

“How so?"

Sydney tilted her head at him. “Because I didn’t hear anything fall to the ground the whole time I was showering.”

In other words, someone deliberately quietly poured shower gel in front of her cubicle door.

Luke immediately stood up. “It must be Lyra Madden. The only enemies we have in t

    Sydney smiled faintly. “Simple. Call the cops!”Luke looked over in surprise. “Darling, didn’t you say…?”“Hm?” Sydney gave him a warning look.He immediately made a zipping motion at his mouth and fell silent.Sydney continued, “Ms. Madden said that she didn’t do it on purpose, but we’re convinced that she did. It’s difficult to discern the truth since we have differing opinions, so how about we leave the investigation to the police?”Julien caught the brilliant glint in Sydney’s eyes and knew in his heart that her motive was not that simple. She might be planning something. Just as he was about to remind Lyra, Lyra already said, “Sure.”She agreed with a smile on her face, but she laughed at Sydney for being a fool in her heart. Sydney wanted to call the cops?There was no monitoring. What was the point of calling the cops?Sydney pretended not to see the mockery in Lyra’s eyes and applauded, smiling. “Great. You’ve made the right choice, Ms. Madden. Luke, since Ms. Madden ag

    “Of course!” Sydney smiled and nodded. Then, she looked at Lyra. “I have to thank you, Ms. Madden. If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have gotten so many benefits.”Lyra bit her lower lip and said nothing.Julien held her waist. “Let’s go.”“Bye, President Flint and Ms. Madden. We’ll see you back in Port City!” Sydney waved with a grin on her face.The two people left dejectedly.Luke closed the door and came back. “Darling, you’re amazing. You’ve wrung a fortune out of Julien by taking the Azure Heart the last time already, but you’ve gotten even more from him today. Their faces were pitch-black when they left. It’s hilarious.”Sydney picked up the cup at the bedside table and took a sip of water from the straw. “Such a good deal gifted itself to us. It’ll be a shame not to take it.”“That’s true.” Luke chuckled before looking at her with a serious expression. “But darling, are we really going to drop this matter?”“Yeah.” Sydney nodded. “It’s true that we can send Lyra to pris

    Sydney was standing in front of the printer, printing the transfer letter and the land deed from earlier, so she took her time to reply. “Alright. Send out the processed documents on the desk and let me know when Luke comes in the afternoon.”“Understood.” Sophie walked over and carried away the pile of documents on the table.Once Sydney had photocopied everything, she returned to her seat and sat down. She sorted out the copies and bound them before taking the originals to the safe for storage.Suddenly, she thought of something, and a glint flashed in her eyes. She picked up her phone, took a picture of the original deed, posted it online, and wrote: [Thank you President Flint for the valuable land!]After that, she separately tagged Julien and Trison Corporation. Brandon would definitely jump in anger when he saw the post.After all, a father was to blame for his child’s faults. As a father, Brandon should also take some responsibility for what Lyra did.Sydney smiled at that

    Half an hour later, Brandon returned to the Madden residence.As the butler greeted him, Brandon handed over his coat. “Where’s the Madam and the Young Miss?”“They’re in the room.” The butler draped the coat over his arm and replied.Brandon hummed in acknowledgment and walked upstairs.In the room upstairs, Mrs. Madden and Lyra were sitting at the end of the bed, looking at the photo albums together.Lyra pointed to a photo of herself. “Mom, do you still remember this photo?”Mrs. Madden stroked Lyra’s long hair lovingly. “Of course I do. It was taken when you were six years old. I still remember you played hide-and-seek that year, and I couldn’t find you anywhere. I was so scared that I thought you went missing, but you fell asleep hiding in the attic.“I know. I woke up and came down from the attic myself, only to find you crying. You even called the police.” Lyra reminisced.The smile on Mrs. Madden faded a little, and her eyes flashed with hatred.It was only natural for

    “That was quick.” Luke spun around in his chair lazily.Sydney closed the file in her hand and placed it to the side. “Invite him in.”“Yes,” Sophie answered.Soon, Brandon came in and looked at Sydney with his sharp eyes.Sydney was used to confrontation in the workplace, so she was not nervous. She smiled faintly and gestured at him. “President Madden, have a seat.”“You look comfortable!” Brandon seemingly praised her and pulled the chair across her to sit down.Luke sat next to Sydney.Sydney gently pushed the tea that Sophie had brought in front of Brandon. “Thank you for the compliment, President Madden. Have some tea.”Brandon lowered his eyes to the tea in front of him with no intention of picking it up.Sydney did not care either, and she crossed her fingers on the table. “Pray tell, what is the purpose of President Madden’s visit to Skylight?”“Since you asked, I’ll be frank with you. I want the land in the city center back.” Brandon stared at her.Sydney and Luke

  • My Wife Wants a Divorce!   Chapter 65 Method

    Julien frowned after he listened to the voice messages. For the first time, he felt a little disgusted at Brandon’s methods.He could not believe that Brandon would use those kinds of despicable methods to suppress her just because he could not buy the land.Suddenly, Julien’s phone vibrated again.He gathered his thoughts and looked down at the screen. Sydney had sent another message: [What should I do now?]At the end of the sentence was a sighing emoji. It was very cute.Looking at that emoji, Julien’s mind suddenly replaced the emoji with Sydney’s face.Maybe she was making that exact expression right now.However, he quickly realized that it was something he should not be thinking of, and his expression sank.What did the expression Sydney was making have to do with him?Why was he thinking of that?[Z-H: I don’t know.]Sydney read the reply and felt a little disappointed.The last time, that person had given her an idea that allowed her to successfully acquire SweetHe

    Sydney did not expect talks with the relevant departments to go so smoothly. They signed the contract in less than an hour.In order to thank Sydney for letting them use her land for free for several years, the department promised to help her build the factory and arrange for the machinery.It was already dark when she walked out of the department.Sydney’s stomach grumbled.When Luke heard it, he wrapped an arm around her shoulder. “Darling, how does steak sound?”“Perfect.” Sydney nodded and agreed.“Let’s go!” Luke grabbed her and speed-walked towards the car.Half an hour later, the two of them arrived at one of the most famous western restaurants in Port City.As soon as Sydney entered, she heard a familiar voice from behind her. “Ms. Raines and Mr. Cohen, we meet again.”The smile on Sydney’s face instantly faded.Luke rolled his eyes. “Why is it you guys again?”The people were none other than Julien Flint and Lyra Madden.Lyra smiled. “Does Mr. Cohen not want to see

    Sydney raised her brows. “Why are you coming to us if you’re looking for Ms. Madden? Isn’t she with you?”“That’s right.” Luke crossed his arms.Julien lowered his eyes. “She’s not with me.”“She’s not?” Luke was stunned before laughing gloatingly. “What? Did you lose her?”Julien did not answer him.Luke’s grin disappeared, and it was replaced with shock. “Wait, seriously?”Sydney looked at Julien. “Ms. Madden is missing, so you came here to find her. Do you think we hid her?”“Lyra hasn’t come back since she went to the ladies. You guys are the only ones who have a problem with her here.” Julien looked her in the eye.Luke laughed in exasperation. “Why would we hide her just because we have a problem with her? What logic is that? Everyone knows we’ll be the first suspects if anything happens to her. We’d be sick in the head to do that.”Julien pursed his lips and did not say anything.In fact, he also knew that the possibility of Lyra being here was unlikely.However, he c

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

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,

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
