Chapter 814 Madeline Wished to Kill SydneyHunter sensed the taunt in Sydney's tone, and the corner of his mouth twitched. "You can't be serious, Sydney? Do you expect my foot to be crippled? You were so brutal. I didn't think you meant to stomp on my foot so hard. I can't believe you did!" He gave a shocked expression.Sydney grunted, "That's because you tried to stir things up between Julien and me. What you said was disrespectful to us. Do you understand?" She was a little angry.Hunter said Julien had a bad temper and that he could lose it at any moment. As Julien's girlfriend, Sydney wouldn't allow anyone to say that about him, especially since Hunter was Julien's friend.And Hunter told her to dump Julien to be with him. What did he think she was?Did Hunter think Sydney was an easy woman who could be with another man immediately after breaking up with her boyfriend?Was there a woman who could stand such humiliation?Therefore, Sydney stomped right on Hunter’s foot to tea
Chapter 815 Sydney Longed for FreedomHunter put his hands behind his head, "I don't understand. You guys don't have the same biological parents, but you grew up in the same family. Why is she so evil while you are so kind? Didn't you guys receive the same education?"Sydney smiled, "Yes, but we are different people."Sydney glanced at Madeline and said, "Her mother, Kaylie, is not a kind woman. She used tricks to get pregnant and marry my dad. And Kaylie... Anyway, with a mother like Kaylie, how could Madeline be good? Even if we had the same education, our genes are different.""Interesting." Hunter nodded, "No wonder you are looking for a good male candidate to select a good gene for Madeline's kid. You wanted Madeline to have a kind child, didn't you?"Sydney nodded slightly, "Yes. The kid will be the heir to my family, so I need to be careful. I don't want the kid to be as evil as Madeline.""You're thoughtful." Hunter reached out to pat her on the shoulder. But as his hand
Chapter 816 Madeline Was Stopped From Revealing Sydney's Biological ParentsThe reason Hunter fell in love with Sydney, besides Sydney's kindness, was that he saw the sparkle in Madeline's eyes.In the past, Sydney loved Julien, but she was hurt by the guy and ended up in divorce.In the upper class, so many women were hurt by men. Many women were more miserable than Sydney.Most women were depressed after they got hurt. Some of them even committed suicide.But Sydney was different. She quickly collected herself and moved forward with her life.Her eyes still sparkled. She didn't give up on herself or become depressed. She took over the shattered Skylight with resolution and expanded its business.Sydney didn't confine herself to one thing or be obsessed with one man.Even though she got hurt, she could collect herself and move on. She wouldn't give up on herself.Neither a relationship nor Julien was the most important thing to her. She would not give up her life for anything
Chapter 817 RegretHe worked for the government and knew that there wasn't such a regulation as taking the prisoner away from the adjournment. In such a situation, he had to make up a story to put off her doubts.He could tell that the bailiff was deliberately stopping Madeline from revealing the identities of Sydney's biological parents just as Sydney speculated.It was common sense that when a prisoner was not deprived of all political rights, he was entitled to free speech regardless of whether the court was during or out of the court sessions.The bailiff, however, interfered with Madeline's rights. There should be something behind it.It showed that someone had told those officials to keep an eye on Madeline and prevent her from revealing any information about Sydney's biological parents.As for who this person was, he had gotten an answer.Few people in Port City had such power. His father was one, and his father's political opponent was another.There was no way they wou
Chapter 818 JealousyHe had been occasionally curious and wanted to meet her.It was not an urgent issue, so he kept putting it off until six years passed. All along, he hadn't believed it was that important. It was just curiosity.He hadn't felt the urgency to meet her.As a result, he missed the best opportunity to win her heart and be with her.He really regretted it.If he had taken out some time to go and see her, it might have been a different story.Hunter suddenly moaned, leaned back, and covered her face in frustration.His action startled not only Sydney but also the other customers in the café. They couldn't help looking at him.Uncomfortable with so much attention, Sydney smiled awkwardly at them, cleared her throat, and whispered, "Hey, what's wrong?"Hunter forced a smile, weakly waved his hand, and replied in dismay, "Nothing, I was just lamenting a chance I missed and wanted to hit myself.""Ha?" Sydney was confused.Hunter shook his head. "Never mind, go ah
Chapter 819 Be Reluctant to Trouble Him"Did Madeline say anything unusual to me?" Sydney straightened her back and frowned. She asked Julien in return, "What do you mean?"She didn't understand why he asked her such a question.'In court, Madeline said some strange words to me indeed. Madeline asked me if I wanted to know who my biological parents were.'Did Julien mean that?'Of course, Julien felt Sydney's suspicion of him in her words. He lowered his head slightly and said calmly, "I mean if Madeline scolded or threatened you in court.""It turns out that you mean that."She was relieved in her heart.Originally, she even thought that he was afraid that she had gotten to know something.He compressed his lips. "That's what I mean. Then what do you think I mean?""Nothing special. I have overthought it." She waved her hand and said with a smile, "Of course, she scolded me. You know how she hates me. When she saw me, it was natural that she became emotional."He nodded. "R
Chapter 820 Treat You to a Meal"It's nothing. You're Julien's girlfriend, and if nothing goes wrong, he will be your husband. You won't owe him anything. That's what he should do, right?" Hunter shrugged his shoulders and said disapprovingly.Sydney shook her head. "In this world, no one is supposed to do anything for others. It is true that Julien and I are now dating and that we will remarry, but this does not mean that Julien should do anything for me. This idea is not right, and I am not the kind of person who likes to owe others favors. I always feel very uncomfortable doing so, and I can only be relieved after returning the favors.""I can see that." Hunter looked at her and expressed his agreement.Sydney smiled and continued, "I just said that I already owed Julien a lot before we got back together, so I don't want to owe him anymore. Now that he and I are back together, if I bother him with everything and owe him favors, I'll feel inferior to him in my relationship with h
Chapter 821 Hunter Was Dissed by JulienHunter went up to the top floor and arrived at Julien's office door.Just as he was about to knock on the door, the door next to Julien’s office, which was the special assistant's office, opened.Zach came out of it with a file in his hand. Zach was surprised to see Hunter standing in front of Julien's office. "Mr. Cohen?"Hunter raised his eyebrows at Zach and didn't say anything.Zach came to his senses. He asked as he pushed his glasses upward, "Mr. Cohen, what can I do for you? Are you here to see Mr. Flint?""Of course! Why else would I be here?" Hunter rolled his eyes at Zach and asked, "Is Julien here?"Zach realized he shouldn't have asked the question. He let out an awkward cough and replied, "Mr. Flint is inside. If you'd like to see Mr. Flint, please wait a moment. Let me tell Mr. Flint."Hunter narrowed his eyes, "What? Do I need to make an appointment with Julien if I want to see him?"Zach sensed that Hunter was unhappy, bu
