Chapter 659 Look for JulienSydney stood up from the sofa and stepped swiftly to the room. "I know, Grandma. Don't worry. Even if you don't call me now, I'm gonna go there.""That's great. Go quickly, Syd. Call me if anything happens," said the Old Madam.Sydney nodded repeatedly. "Don't worry, I will.""OK, then I'll leave Julien to you." the Old Madam clenched her cane in one hand and her mobile phone in the other, her lined face full of expectation. "We must stop Julien from doing something stupid. It'll be great if you can try and straighten him out so that he can move on from his mother's suicide.""I'll try my best," Sydney replied.The Old Madam hung up the phone in satisfaction.Felicia, who came in with a cup of tea, said with a smile at the sight of the Old Madam's expression. "Don't worry, Old Madam. We can count on Ms. Raines. She'll certainly help Mr. Flint step out of the shadows.""I hope so." The Old Madam took a sip from the tea cup and sighed, "It's not that I
Chapter 660 UnconsciousHearing Zach's voice, Sydney immediately came out of the room and walked to the study.Zach pointed to the study, "Ms. Raines, Mr. Flint is here."Sydney nodded and poked her head to see Julien.Sitting on the floor, he was leaning against the desk, with his head slightly lowered. Sydney couldn't see the expression on his face. Nor did she know if he was asleep or not.Sydney pursed her lips, walked in, and gradually saw him clearly.His clothes were crumpled, and his tie was hanging loosely around his neck. The collar of the white shirt was dirty. Obviously, it was stained by wine. His hair was messy, and he looked disheveled and wretched, like a tramp.Seeing this, Sydney was suddenly very worried.She hurriedly came to Julien and smelt a strong smell of alcohol on him.Frowning slightly, she almost intended to fan herself with her hand. However, she resisted the urge to fan herself, squatted down, and lifted Julien's head.He was frowning with his e
Chapter 661 The Old Madam FaintedSydney took the blanket and put it over Julien’s body.She asked Zach to turn on the heat in the study. Then she was a bit relieved.See Sydney being so thoughtful to Julien, Zach was happy for Julien.‘What Mr. Flint had done for Ms. Raines was worth it!'Sydney had no idea what Zach was thinking. She sat next to Julien and looked at him.Julien's face was red from the alcohol, but he had dark circles under his eyes. Apparently, he had been up all night and had been drinking last night.He only drank red wine. Otherwise, he would have been in the hospital by now, even if he wasn't dead.Sydney couldn't help but shiver at the thought.Suddenly, her cell phone rang.Sydney collected her thoughts and took the phone out of her bag.It was Julien's grandmother. The Old Madam should ask about Julien's condition, so Sydney answered immediately, "Grandma.""Syd, have you seen Julien?" On the other end of the line, Julien's grandmother sounded anx
Chapter 662 Who Was Julien Apologizing ToAt that moment, Julien was dreaming back to his childhood.He went upstairs to call his mother for breakfast as usual.Usually, when Julien knocked on the door, his mom would open it and smile at him.However, this time, no matter how hard he knocked, the door did not open, which made him have a sinking feeling.Julien then asked the maid to get the backup key and opened the door to his mom's room. Once the door was opened, Julien smelled a strong smell of blood. The smell came from the bathroom.Julien's face instantly turned pale. He froze for a few seconds. Then he rushed to the bathroom.The bathroom door was open. As soon as he reached the bathroom door, he saw the awful scene inside.Her mother was lying in the tub. Her face and body were splattered with blood.She had one hand dangling from the tub, with a blade in it, and her other hand in the tub. The water in the tub was reddened with blood.Julien's mother's body was stif
Chapter 663 Psychological Shadow“It won’t work...” Julien shook his head.In fact, he was not unaware that something was wrong with his psyche. But he did not think that his situation could be understood by a psychiatrist.Hearing these words, Sydney instantly frowned unhappily, “How do you know? You haven’t even tried, so how do you know it won’t work?” Julien closed his eyes, “My mom...regretted giving birth to me...”“What?” Sydney was first stunned for a moment and then looked at him, puzzled. “You said that your mom regretted giving birth to you?” Julien remained silent. Sydney shook her head, “How could it be? It’s absolutely impossible! How do you know that? I heard from your grandmother that you and your mom were very close to each other and that your mom was very gentle.”So how could such a mother regret giving birth to him?But looking at his expression, it seemed that it was not a lie.So, what was going on? Julien still closed his eyes without saying a word. Seeing
Chapter 664 The Childlike ManLooking at the serious and persistent expression on Sydney’s face, Julien knew he had to drink the water. He rubbed his temples, sat up hardly, and took the glass, drinking under her gaze.Then Sydney felt satisfied and stopped watching him intensely.After finishing, Julien put the glass aside and shook his dazed and heavy head.Noticing his action, Sydney asked, “A headache?”Julien replied, “H’m.”Sydney pinched her lips. “You deserve it! Why did you drink so much? Haven’t you considered the results?”Indefensibly, Julien hung his head down without any word. For his poor look, Sydney did not have the heart to blame him any longer, her expression melting. “Well, do not do it again. I don’t want to be worried about you every year.”Julien looked at her. “I’m sorry…” "Don't say sorry. You haven't done anything wrong." Sydney said gently, “I understand your choice, but I hope you can leave it behind. As I have said, it's not your fault t
Chapter 665 Tween FlintSydney Raines couldn't help raising her red lips when she saw that he was so happy to see her back. "Well, I'm back. I didn't break my promise, didn't leave, and came back on time. How’s that?"Julien Flint hummed.Sydney pulled a chair and put it on the edge of the sofa to sit down. "Can you get up?""No." Julien shook his head and looked at her pitifully.Sydney sighed, then reached out. "I'll pull you."Julien put his hand on hers.After Sydney held his hand, she pulled him up from the sofa with force. "Sit down. Be careful not to fall back.""Okay." Julien nodded obediently.Seeing him being so well-behaved, Sydney couldn't help but touch his head, which she rarely did. "Tween Flint, I didn't expect you to be so fun when you're drunk.""Tween Flint?" Julien looked at her dubiously.He grimaced in the next second. "Who is Tween Flint? Do you have a crush on another man?"He questioned loudly, as if Sydney was a heartbreaker.Sydney didn’t know wh
Chapter 666 Sydney Felt Very TiredExcept that her chin bumped into Julien’s back, Sydney didn’t feel any pain, as she fell onto his body.After rubbing her chin, she quickly stood up and reached out to pull him. "Julien, how are you? Are you okay?""Huh?" After Julien stood up, he looked at her in confusion.The corners of Sydney's eyes twitched.‘Well, Julien looks confused. Maybe he doesn't even realize that he fell onto the floor just now.’‘But from his expression, it seems that he wasn’t hurt.’‘After all, there is a carpet underneath.’Thinking about it, Sydney felt relieved and then continued to support Julien to the door of the study.As Julien’s legs were weak, he hobbled, and Sydney tried hard to take him out of the study and into the bathroom of the bedroom. Sydney felt that she had never been so tired in her life."Well..." Sydney exhaled. Then she turned her head and said while lifting her chin towards the washbasin, "Hold it!"Julien blinked. "What?"Sydney r
