Chapter 669 His Wedding Ring'A ring?'Why is there a ring on his hand? And it looks familiar.'Could it be...'Sydney's face changed. She hurriedly put down the sleeve in her hand, held Julien's left hand with both hands, and unfolded his ring finger so that she could see the ring more clearly.After a while, Sydney was sure that this was really their wedding ring from the past.'When did he put it on?'She touched the ring and pursed her lips.This ring was the one she had bought back then.When they were to get married over six years ago, Grandma asked him to accompany her to buy the rings. But at that time, he had no feelings for her, so he refused her. Therefore, she bought them by herself. After seeing many rings, she bought this pair and had their names engraved on them.When they held their wedding, the jeweler sent the rings over and they exchanged them. But after the wedding, he took the ring off and never wore it. Although she was upset, she didn't force him to put
Chapter 670 A Strange PersonBesides, Sydney also had something she had hidden from Julien.Hearing Sydney say so, Zach was instantly relieved. "Thanks for your understanding, Ms. Raines.""It's OK." Sydney shook her head. "Take good care of Grandma there. Call me if anything comes up. If Julien wakes up, I'll let him know. I won't go home tonight."Sydney was going to stay at Julien's apartment and take care of him tonight.There were still more than ten hours until the next day.Julien wouldn't sleep until the next day. What if he did something stupid after she left?"OK, no problem. Thank you, Ms. Raines."Zach responded.Sydney replied, "It's okay. That's what I'm supposed to do. I promised Grandma I'd stay with Julien today.""Okay. I'll talk to you later, Ms. Raines." Seeing that Felicia was moving something in the ward, Zach prepared to help her.However, Sydney suddenly called out, "Wait a minute, Zach."Zach stopped, "What’s wrong, Ms. Raines?""I need you to find a
Chapter 671 Finally SoberAfter hearing Sydney's question, that person finally moved. She looked up. Sydney still couldn't see the person's face. Instead, she only saw the person wear a black mask. The mask did not cover the upper face, but it was so heavily bandaged that only the eyes could be seen.Seeing that, Sydney widened her eyes in shock.This person was having plastic surgery. The bandage on the person's face and the swollen double-edged eyelids showed that this one was having a face-changing surgery, not a small one. It must hurt so much!Sydney couldn't help but shudder. She was surprised, but she also admired this person. After all, not everyone had the guts to take the high risk of going through the whole plastic surgery. "What do you want, Miss? Looking for someone?" Sydney suppressed her surprise. Seeing the person outside the door was still silent, she had to ask again. Just now, the person's head had been down, so she could not tell the gender. Anyway,
Chapter 672 Extremely AwkwardAs Julien watched Sydney exit the door, a sinking feeling grew worse in Julien's heart.The meaningful smile on Sydney's face when she left made Julien start to wonder if he had done something stupid when he was drunk.Why else would Sydney give that look?‘Did I do something stupid?' Julien kept his head down, his palm on his forehead. He began to recall his memories during his drunkenness.Eventually, he remembered it.After all, he didn't have amnesia. He just forgot it for a while. When he tried to think back, he could remember it.Thinking about when he was drunk, he acted like a retard. He felt ashamed of himself.Although Julien showed nothing on his face, his widened eyes gave him away. He couldn't believe he had done those things!He acted like a child and did those childish things to Sydney. No wonder Sydney was looking at him with mocking and teasing eyes.She must have been looking forward to seeing the look on Julien's face when he rem
Chapter 673 The ReconciliationHe had never told anyone about the deep scar on him.Therefore, no one ever comforted him that he hadn't done anything wrong, especially that he hadn't led to the death of his mother.Years passed, but his scar hadn't been healed. What's worse, it was growing. To relieve the pain, he chose to drink and self-harm.But now, Sydney told Julien that his mother hadn't regretted it since she had born him and that he hadn't resulted in the death of his mother. His being was accepted, especially by the one he loved. Sydney was the first one to tell him all this.Naturally, Julien felt a bit better, and his heart opened slightly.Sydney didn't know what Julien was thinking.But when Julien said he opened up somewhat because of her comfort, she felt herself walking on air. In her view, it meant that whether he was drunk or not, no matter what she said, he would listen and remember.It also meant that even if he was drunk, he treated her with special since
Chapter 674 Promise to Remarry LaterJulien kissed her fervently and domineeringly because of her response.Sydney didn't even have time to gasp, and she was about to suffocate.She patted his back gently to signal him that he needed to stop.He was excited to kiss her, but he was also sensible. After that, he gradually slowed down, bit the edge of her lip, and let go of her. Then he pressed his forehead against hers, looked at her deeply, and cried out in a husky and sexy voice, "Sydney."At this time, Sydney was gasping. Hearing his words, she nodded slightly."Sydney." Julien said once more.Sydney's breathing gradually returned to normal, and she asked, "What's wrong?"Julien shook his head, "Well. I just want to call your name."Sydney rolled her eyes at him.Julien hugged her tightly, "Sydney, I'm very happy.""Why?" After saying that, Sydney leaned her head on his shoulder and smelt the mint fragrance of his body.She knew he was happy because they were finally back
Chapter 675 They’re All Proof"Yeah, I know." Julien stroked her hair. "So I'm not blaming you."Sydney stuck out her tongue. "Actually, you can take the initiative to tell me about the ring earlier. You don’t need to wait for me to find out. If I still haven’t found out by now, wouldn’t you tell me that you’re already wearing the ring?”"Of course not." Julien shook his head slightly, "If you haven't found out, I'll find a chance to tell you. Well, wait for me here. I'll go get the ring."As soon as he finished his sentence, he got up and walked to the room.Sydney just watched him go into and come out of his room.Returning to his previous position, Julien held a fist and stretched it out to Sydney. Then, under Sydney's gaze, he slowly opened his fist, revealing the shining ring in his palm.Sydney reached out and picked up the ring, held it in front of her eyes for a while, and made sure it was hers.She played with the ring. "At first, I thought that you bought this five mi
Chapter 676 It Was All Him"Then? "Sydney clenched her hands into fists.So, the Azure Heart wasn't meant for Lyra at all. It was meant for Sydney from the very beginning."After buying it, I suddenly realized that I did not know how to give it to you." Julien looked right into Sydney's eyes. "At that time, we were already divorced, so no matter what identity I used or what ideas I came up with, it was simply inappropriate for me to give you the Azure Heart. So, I decided not to give it in the end. I just kept it. However, I never thought that someone would leak the news of me buying the Azure Heart and even spread rumors that I bought it as an engagement gift for Lyra.""However, you didn't try to explain it, did you?" Sydney bit her lip as she was a little upset.How could she not be? Since it wasn't an engagement gift for Lyra, then why wouldn't he come out to explain the misunderstanding? Why would he have remained silent?To be honest, Sydney wasn't quite comfortable with
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
