Chapter 682 Sydney Allowed Julien to Call Her LeafSydney's body involuntarily trembled lightly as it evoked so many memories and sounded so familiar. Her eyes welled up with tears."Didn't you tell me that yourself?" Julien asked, resting one hand on the window's edge of his car.Sydney blinked in confusion, "I told you that?""Yes.""When?" Sydney was even more confused.She didn’t remember she had told Julien about that name.She had stopped using that name since her dad died six years ago.If Julien hadn't brought up that name today, she might have forgotten about it."Eleven years ago." Looking out the window at the confused woman, Julien answered.Sydney's eyes widened, "Eleven years ago?""Yes." Julien nodded.Sydney swallowed, "You mean that I told you about it in my letter before?"Eleven years ago, Sydney hadn't met Julien. There was no way she would have told him her nickname.The only possibility was that she had told him in a letter, since they had been pen p
Chapter 683 Sean's PregnancyZach exclaimed and then quickly clapped his hands. "Congratulations, Mr. Flint. You've finally gotten together with Ms. Raines."Zach was happy for Julien.In the past few months, Julien had chased Sydney so hard that he almost lost his life. Zach was a witness.So knowing that Julien and Sydney were together, Zach was delighted.Julien grunted when he heard Zach's congratulations.Julien was satisfied with Zach's words."By the way." Zach looked at Julien and smiled. "Do you have any gifts for us now that you and Ms. Raines are back together? When other bosses find girlfriends or wives, they will either invite their employees to a meal or give them bonuses or other things just for good luck. Do you want to give us anything?"Zach asked, rubbing his hands.Julien's face instantly darkened. "Bonuses?"He did not blame Zach for angering his grandmother, but Zach had the nerve to ask for bonuses.Of course, Julien was very unhappy with Zach asking
Chapter 684 Bring Good Luck to EveryoneSean lowered her eyes and replied sheepishly, "I don't know yet. The doctor hasn't confirmed it yet."Recently, Sean had been vomiting a lot.And she hadn't had her period this month, so she suspected she might be pregnant. But she wasn't sure about it. She planned to go to the pharmacy after work today to buy a pregnancy test.However, just now, she couldn't resist feeling like vomiting in front of Sydney.She had to lie to Sydney to hide the fact that she might be pregnant.Sean felt guilty for Sydney."Why didn't you go to the hospital to get it confirmed? It's such a big deal!" Hearing Sean's reply, Sydney was stunned.‘It's so irresponsible towards oneself!'Watching Sydney become angry, Sean felt even more ashamed. But she had to keep lying.Sean hung her head down and murmured, “My mom is at my home these days, so I didn't go to the hospital. I was afraid that if my mom saw me on the medication, she would worry. She's old and her
Chapter 685 An Antique Bracelet Sean smiled sheepishly. Sydney said to Zach, "It seems that he lost a lot of money this time." ‘Julien is rich and generous, so of course the benefits he gave to his employees are good.' "Ms. Raines, you also know the money he spent on the benefits is only a small sum for Mr. Flint, so it’s not much." Zach said with a polite smile. Sydney leaned back in her chair. "Did he bring it up himself?" Zach shook his head. "No. Actually, it was me who brought it up. I know that you and Mr. Flint got back together and asked Mr. Flint for some good luck, so Mr. Flint simply provided the benefits for all the employees of Flint Corporation and Skylight Corporation." "I see." Sydney finally knew the reason why Julien suddenly gave benefits to the employees. Julien had very little knowledge of building good relationships with others. If no one had reminded him, he would not have realized it at all. However, once he realized it, he would do his best.
Chapter 686 The Old Madam's Condition DeterioratedSydney looked at the bracelet. She was confused.Then she put the bracelet back in the box and picked up her phone. She wanted to ask Julien about it.But before she pressed the dial button, it occurred to her that Zach had just told her that Julien was talking to the Old Madam, so it wasn't a good time to call him.‘All right. I'll call him this afternoon.'‘We're meeting this afternoon anyway.'Then Sydney closed the box and locked it in a drawer.The bracelet was a valuable antique. If she lost it, she could not afford it.After locking the bracelet in the drawer, Sydney put the key in her handbag. Then she picked up a file and got to work.Meanwhile, after receiving Sydney's and Julien's gifts, employees of Flint Corporation and Skylight Corporation posted photos on social media thanking the couple for their gifts and giving them their best wishes.With so many people posting it, it quickly drew the media’s attention. The
Chapter 687 Madeline's AmbitionImmediately, Julien eased his eyebrows. He raised his hand and touched his face.He knew he was a few years older than Sydney, but they didn't look like father and daughter!‘Would Sydney think we look like father and daughter?'The Old Madam was amused to see the confusion and sudden nervousness on Julien's face. "Julien, since when have you become so funny?"Julien's face became gloomy. "Grandma, were you teasing me?""Or else what? Otherwise, you would still be sad that I am going to meet your grandfather." The Old Madam patted Julien's hand and said, "Don't worry! Although I may only have two years left and I do want to meet your grandfather, I'm not going to meet your grandfather right away. I want to watch you and Syd get married and have a baby. I can see that in two years, right?"Julien's thin lips quivered. He seemed to want to say something, but seeing his grandmother's expectant eyes, he swallowed what he was going to say and replied,
Chapter 688 Sydney's AngerInstead of being intimidated by Sydney's aura, Madeline twitched her lips in disdain and walked toward Sydney's desk.Sydney clenched her hands, and her voice was filled with anger. "Madeline, how dare you disobey me?"Madeline sneered. "Why should I listen to you? Do you think you are my sister? How can a bastard deserve to be my sister?"Sydney's pupils contracted for a moment. "You...""Are you surprised that I know you're not Dad's daughter?" Madeline said sarcastically as she stood in front of the desk across from Sydney and crossed her arms.Sydney pursed her red lips and didn't say anything.In Madeline's eyes, Sydney had admitted it silently.Madeline ruffled her newly dyed red curly hair. "I did not know your true identity and thought you were Dad's daughter until I heard something at the hospital the other day, and then I became very interested in your body. I wondered why your kidneys were suitable for Brandon, so I went through your checku
Chapter 689 A Complete Failure"Because Skylight Corporation is the family business of the Raines family, and because I am my father's biological daughter, the only biological daughter!" Sydney had a crazy, proud laugh. "But you, Sydney, were born because your mother committed adultery. You're a bastard! You even don't know who your father really is! So, you're the one who has the least right to inherit Skylight Corporation!"The two security guards and Sean were all stunned by these words. But the security guards did not think that was important to them. Although they were surprised and wanted to know if Vice President Raines was telling a lie that the chairwoman was not the daughter of the former chairman, they were quite clear that they were just grassroots security guards. No matter how curious they were, they had to pretend they had heard nothing. Doing their work like the deaf was enough, or they would lose their jobs. But Sean didn't have to think so much. She walked up
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
