Chapter 907 Sydney's Self-ReproachA flicker of slyness flashed across her eyes.Julien's eyes captured it, and his heart lurched. On the surface, he remained calm and acted as if he hadn't noticed anything. "What is it?""She asked if you treated me well. If not..." Sydney curled her lips.Julien slightly tightened his grip on the glass. "What?"Sydney looked at his hand and smiled behind her hand. "To shut you out of the door, of course, and she advised me to break up with you."Julien's face darkened when he heard that.He naturally knew that Mrs. Chase wanted him to treat Leaf well.He was just not happy to hear the breakup part.It hadn't been easy to get her back, and this was an inauspicious expression.He didn't like to hear it."Well, how did you answer?" Julien asked gruffly, pursing his lips.Sydney giggled at the sight of his unhappy face. "My answer is naturally affirmative, or else she would have come over."As soon as Julien heard that, his agitation was gon
Chapter 908 Never RegretIf Sydney hadn't found out at the beginning, or if she had found out, but she hadn't encouraged Sean, Sean would possibly have had no courage to tell Luke how she felt about him.As long as Sean didn't confess her love and still treated Luke the same way as before, the result might be different.Looking at Sydney's face full of self-blame, Sean waved her hand and smiled, "Ms. Raines, don't be like that. You've done nothing wrong. You just wanted to help me, and even if you had not suggested that I take the initiative to chase Mr. Chase, I would have done it.""Oh?" Sydney sat up a little straighter.Sean lowered her eyes and smiled, "For a long time, Mr. Chase had not declared his feelings for you, so you were kept in the dark. I, as a bystander, was not clear whether you would agree to be with Mr. Chase, so I had always hidden my affection very well until Mr. Chase told you how he felt about you and you clearly refused him. I realized Mr. Chase and you wo
Chapter 909 Precious GiftsWomen who gave birth, miscarried, or aborted their children all needed to recuperate.This was very good for their recovery.However, Sean shook her head and refused. "No, Ms. Raines. I don't need to recuperate. As you know, I exercise regularly, so I am strong. As I said before, if I rest for a few days, I am afraid that I will be lazy and won't be able to adapt to intensive work, not to mention resting for a month."Sean smiled when she said this.Sydney frowned. "Which is more important, work or your health? Sean, I know you are devoted to your career, but you can't ignore your health for the sake of your career. It's true you are strong, yet you'll have an abortion, and it will hurt your body. If you come back to work immediately after the operation and your body can't hold on, your career can't continue."Sean lowered her head without saying anything.She knew that Sydney was kind to her.That was why Sydney tried to persuade her to recuperate af
Chapter 910 Something's WrongObviously, Sydney had known Julien would call.After all, he had asked someone to send these gifts to her, so how could he not try to find out as soon as possible whether the gifts he had prepared were proper or not?Thinking of this, Sydney didn't hesitate to answer the phone. "Hello?""Have you seen the gifts?" The man's low, pleasant voice came over the phone.Sydney sat down on the armchair, looked at the rows of gift boxes and bags, and nodded with a smile. "Yes.""So do you think they are appropriate? Do I need to add more?" Julien asked, sitting in a wooden chair in the old residence, slightly straightening his back.Sydney's mouth twitched. "Add more? Don't do that.""Why?""Why?" Sydney smiled wryly, "You prepared so many gifts. You want to scare Mr. and Mrs. Chase?""Did I?" Julien tilted his head slightly, obviously not feeling that he had prepared a lot of gifts.Sydney rolled her eyes. "For you, a wealthy boss, of course, they are n
Chapter 911 Someone Took Away the Goods"Double the compensation?" Sydney laughed angrily. "They sold our things to others without permission and told us after that. How arrogant they are! Once we can't get the parts on time, some machines can't be processed, and all the projects will be delayed. Even if they double the compensation, it will not be enough to cover the losses!"The assistant lowered her head. "Yes, we negotiated with the factory and asked them to get our parts back, but they do not want to, saying that since the goods had been sent out, it would be unreasonable to take them back.""They think they are reasonable?" Sydney was enraged. "If they were reasonable, they wouldn't have broken the contract and sold our stuff to others. I won't let them go!"She clenched her hands in anger. "Do you know which company snatched our parts?"Port City did not have many heavy industry companies.However, she felt that it was not one of those few companies.First of all, she had
Chapter 912 Dallin's PurposeHer factory had just been built, and the machines bought from Kingthene would not be delivered until early next month.As long as the machines were delivered at the beginning of the next month, Skylight would not have to cooperate with other factories to produce parts and other machinery. It would be self-sufficient.Now, there were only ten days before the next month, so it was naturally the last time to cooperate with that factory.But unexpectedly, such a thing happened during the last cooperation.Sydney closed her eyes and let out a long sigh.At that moment, she suddenly remembered something, and her face changed slightly.In the morning, after she refused Dallin, who asked her to let Greta go, Dallin said that she should not make a decision so quickly, and he gave her two days to think about it, saying that maybe after two days, she would change her mind.She told Julien about this and laughed at Dallin's words that she might change her mind
Chapter 913 Not Long Left to LiveJulien's furrowed brows flattened out. "It's alright. I didn't tell Felicia to wake you up because I think you need more rest."Only by having a good rest would his grandma recover quicker.However, she had been resting for a little too long.Julien had known that his grandma had a habit of taking a nap at lunchtime. This was a habit that she got since she was young. This habit had been kept for decades.Not only that, his grandma would only rest for two hours and that would be from one o'clock in the afternoon to three o'clock. She would take a nap and wake up at the exact times.However, this time the Old Madam had been asleep for a total of four hours.Being asleep for longer might be a good thing at times, but it could also be a bad thing at times as well, especially for someone who was quite old like the Old Madam.Sleeping for too long would cause her body function to become weaker and the time that she was awake would decrease.With that thought
Chapter 914 The Story about Julien's ParentsAt it, the Old Madam became startled.But soon, she calmed down and nodded with a sigh. "The biggest problem is that Dallin is still alive. Although you have never met him, you will see him one day anyway. Then the secret will be exposed, and you’ll know about it. But how did you learn about the secret since you’ve never met Dallin?"The Old Madam stared at Julien.Julien took a step back and sat in a chair on her left. "Leaf told me about it.""Syd?" The Old Madam became stunned.So did Felicia. "How did Ms. Raines know about it?"‘The secret is just between the Old Madam and me. Even Mr. Julien himself didn’t know about it. How did Ms. Raines learn about it?‘This is really strange.’"After meeting Dallin, Leaf thought he was very similar to the former me, and she made such a guess," Julien answered straightforwardly, without hiding anything.The Old Madam suddenly tightened her hold on the cane. "What? Syd met Dallin? How did sh
