Chapter 703 Things in the PastFrom these bullet comments on the screen, Julien could tell that Zach had successfully prevented the issue from going popular.He turned off the video and rubbed his brow because he hadn't been relieved yet.After all, covering up the issue was not the solution. Besides, some people had already watched it.So, things should be resolved.While he was lost in thought, the bathroom door suddenly opened.Sydney came out in the black silk lingerie selected by him.With no shoes on, she stepped on the carpet and thus made no sound.If it weren't for the fragrance from her body, Julien wouldn't have noticed that she was out.Julien put his hand down from his brows and looked over.His pupils contracted when he saw Sydney coming up in the lingerie.She was fresh out of the shower. Still wet, her hair cascaded down to her white shoulders. A few strands drooped to her sexy collarbones and shook as she walked. The black nightgown was a stark contrast to h
Chapter 704 Evidence ProducedHe was not a fool. Harry had no plan of getting remarried but did it later.There should be a reason for it.Given the subtle expression on her face, he could tell that it was not anything good.As expected, Sydney nodded lightly and said, "Yeah, my dad was tricked. One year, when my dad went to meet a client, Kaylie, who was working as a waitress at the restaurant, took her chance and added something to my dad's wine. He fell for her trick, and Kaylie sneaked away before my dad woke up. She didn't show up again until she was pregnant with Madeline. A responsible man he was, my dad learned that Kaylie was pregnant with his child and decided to marry her.""That's how it is!" Julien figured out the situation.Sydney bit her lips and said, "As far as I remember, my dad drank a lot on the night he decided to marry Kaylie. He held me, cried for a long time, and kept saying that he was sorry for my mom. In fact, Madeline was correct about one thing. My da
Chapter 705 A Favorable Shift in Public OpinionWhile Sydney was editing the announcement, Julien wasn't idle. He logged in to his Twitter account, entered some words, and then posted them online.As a business giant, he surely had tremendous followers ranging from common people to other business giants.Therefore, many people received the notification as soon as Julien posted the words. They were stunned by Julien's post.For years, Julien hadn't posted anything to his account, which almost became a wasteland. Now he suddenly posted. How could people be unsurprised?They crowded into Julien’s account to see what he posted. After knowing the content, they exclaimed in surprise.Julien Flint v: "Please don’t mention me anymore or say something like that '@Sydney is a calculating bad girl who wasn’t worthy of you'. I’m not an easily-cheated person as you said. Do you think a man in my position could not know the truth? Let alone that she hasn’t done anything someone once said. Ev
Chapter 706 You Can't Beat HerMadeline gritted her teeth and stared at the phone screen with bloodshot eyes.Seeing netizens gradually sobered up and spoke for Sydney and Julien, she was very angry.'What is wrong with these netizens?'How could they feel something is wrong when Julien tweeted something? Why is Julien so powerful?'Madeline gritted her teeth and stomped her foot.'I had a hard time creating public opinion and managing to lead these netizens to criticize Sydney. She may give up her shares after a short time.'So I can't let her go now just because of a tweet from Julien.'I must beat her!'Thinking of this, Madeline picked up her phone and made a call.However, the other party's phone was turned off.She was so angry that she almost smashed her phone, "Damn. Why can't I reach him at this critical time? I have to contact other media."Madeline took a deep breath, tried to calm down, and then made another call.A man said in a gruff voice, "Who is that?"Ma
Chapter 707 Mrs. Madden's Mixed FeelingsMet with such a look from his wife, Brandon looked around the room and figured out the situation. He asked tiredly in a hoarse voice, "Did I pass out again?"Upon hearing his voice, Mrs. Madden hurriedly raised her tearful eyes and looked at him. "Honey, you're awake."Brandon hummed and said, "Help me up."Mrs. Madden helped him sit up and recline against the head of the bed.To make him comfortable, she stuffed a pillow behind his back.While pouring a glass of water, she said, "You have passed out many times. Why don't you stay in the hospital and receive treatment?"With a trembling hand, Brandon took the glass and sighed, "I can't. Because of my losses to Sydney, Trison Corporation has failed to thrive, and my shares are sufficient for me to suppress those shareholders who were ready to make a move. I have to stay in the office. If I got hospitalized at such a time, they would definitely hang my position in the air. That's the last t
Chapter 708 The Treasure in the Suitcase"I'll accompany you to the bank after breakfast," Julien said while reaching out to brush his hair.Sydney agreed, nodding.They got up, washed up and then walked out of the room.Sydney was about to go to the kitchen to prepare some food when the doorbell rang."Julien, someone is pressing the doorbell," Sydney said to Julien, who was bending over to make coffee in front of the coffee table.Julien poured out the brewed coffee and then replied, "It should be Zach. He brings breakfast to us.""Did you ask Zach to prepare breakfast?" Sydney raised her eyebrows.Julien nodded. "Yes. When I woke up, I sent him a message."Then Julien walked towards the door and opened it.It was indeed Zach who was standing outside."Come in." Julien released his hold on the knob and returned to the living room.Zach followed behind him with a box containing breakfast.In the living room, Zach greeted Sydney, who was drinking coffee made by Julien on t
Chapter 709 Mrs. Madden's Mother's EmbroiderySydney held the swaddle up to take a better look.The outer layer of the swaddle wasn't just a plain, silky surface.There were a number of patterns embroidered on it. The stitches were exquisite, and it made the patterns look like they were real. Such handiwork wasn't something that could be completed with a machine.It was obvious that this was entirely handmade. Given the delicate embroidery and the fine silk, Sydney realized that this swaddle certainly cost a lot. Even the baby's clothes looked of high quality. Despite turning yellow by age, the baby's outfit in her hands felt soft and smooth. She could tell that it was an expensive piece of clothing."Why did my dad keep all of these in the safe?" Sydney's face was written with confusion as she put down the swaddle. Julien took a look at the swaddle. His eyes lit up for a brief moment when he saw the patterns on it. "I'm guessing you wore this when you were a child. You pr
Chapter 710 I’ll Protect YouSitting in the car, Sydney felt shivery at the sight of the scene.Patting her chest, she said, "Why is it like a zombie siege?"Zach in the driver's seat burst out laughing when he heard her words. "Ms. Raines, exactly. It's quite like a zombie siege.""Well, get out of the car and deal with this group of reporters," Julien ordered impatiently with a frown."Yes," Zach responded. After unfastening his seat belt, he pushed open the car door and got out of the car.The moment he went out, the reporters directed the microphones and cameras at him and bombarded him with questions."Assistant Zach, are you the only one in the car, or are Mr. Flint and Ms. Raines also in the car?""Assistant Zach, please answer our questions!""Well, listen!" Zach raised his hands and shouted loudly at these reporters. "Please get out of the way. You’ve been so near to the car that the door cannot be opened."Zach did not intend to answer the reporters’ questions, but
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
