Chapter 968 Go to Eat South Lake Cuisine"All right. Wait just a moment," Sofia took the dress handed over by Sydney and left with her assistant. Julien and Sydney sat on the sofa and waited. After waiting for about ten seconds, Julien looked at Sydney and asked gently, "What would you like to eat later?" "I haven't thought about it yet. How about you?" Sydney shook her head and asked back. Julien said with a smile, "I can eat whatever you like." "Oh," Sydney touched her chin and then thought about what she was going to eat. After she thought for two minutes, her eyes lit up. She said excitedly, "How about we eat South Lake cuisine?" "South Lake cuisine?" Julien raised his eyebrows. “Hmm,” Sydney nodded. Julien looked at her, "South Lake cuisine is notoriously sour. Are you sure you can eat?" South Lake was good for growing all kinds of sour-tasting crops such as lemons, so most of South Lake cuisine was sour.Many people who traveled to South Lake were not used to South Lake
Chapter 969 The Terrified ClariceJulien chuckled, "You're right. I know that you ordered the previous dress because you wanted to get acquainted with Mrs. Browning. That dress was sabotaged by Greta, and you needed to choose another one. Now that I said that I would deal with it, I wouldn't forget your original purpose. How could I just choose the most beautiful dress but forget your purpose? Thus, I invited Sofia to design the dress for you."Sydney looked at him and was deeply moved. "Thank you. You're always so considerate."The light turned red. He stopped the car and got the chance to stroke her hair. "If I weren't that considerate, I would hinder you. As your husband, I'm not that kind of person."She blushed. "My husband? When did you become my husband? Don't talk nonsense."He arched his eyebrows. "Did I talk nonsense? You said that you would remarry me, and we would have kids. I just take you as my wife in advance. It has nothing wrong."She was stuck for words.'He's
Chapter 970 What a Coincidence"Is it true? I have never heard about it." Brandon was surprised and stopped eating.Mrs. Madden nodded and looked worried. "It has lasted for a period. I didn't tell you because you have been unwell. I was afraid that you would be worried after you knew it, so I hid it from you. I thought that Clarice would recover gradually, but she still hasn't recovered for so long. What's worse, she has lost a lot of weight."'As a mother, I should have felt heartache when I see my daughter be like that.'However, I have never felt slightly heartache when I see that she is unhappy and loses weight every day. It's strange.'I know that it's wrong to have such thoughts as a mother.'But it's the fact that I don't have much affection for her.'No matter how I feel, I'm still her mother and need to care about her.'Even though I still don't have much affection for her up to now, I have hoped to reunite with her for more than twenty years.'I will take responsibi
Chapter 971 You're the One to LeaveAlthough Sydney complained in her heart, she didn't express it. She squeezed some liquid soap and replied indifferently, "It's not that coincidental. After all, we all live in the center of Port City. It's normal that we meet each other occasionally."Clarice didn't expect Sydney to reply like that. Clarice's expression became stilted. "You... are right."Sydney arched her eyebrows and stopped rubbing her hands. Then she turned to look at Clarice. "You... look nervous. You have been like that since you see me. Are you afraid of me?"Clarice opened her eyes widely and raised her voice suddenly. "That's unreal! How can I be afraid of you? Ms. Raines, you must be joking."After she finished speaking, she lowered her head and rubbed her hands quickly.She rubbed her hands so hard as if the skin on her hands would be rubbed off. It must be painful.Sydney narrowed her eyes. "I'm joking?"She sneered meaningfully. "From your reaction, it seems that
Chapter 972 She Likes HunterSydney knew that Clarice followed her at a distance. It didn't matter, but Sydney felt annoyed by Clarice's defensive gaze as if Sydney was going to do something bad.Anyway, she was curious about why Clarice asked her to leave the restaurant.'Why does Clarice ask me to leave here?'She didn't ask Clarice for the reason because she knew that Clarice wouldn't answer.'If I want to know the reason, I have to find it out by myself.'Thinking that, she paused and tilted her head to look at Clarice, who followed behind her.Seeing that Sydney stopped, Clarice tensed and stopped.Sydney sneered in her heart.'Now that she is trailing me, she needs to do it secretly at least.'However, she stops as soon as I stop. It's too obvious.'Sydney compressed her red lips. She didn't expose Clarice but continued to walk forward.Soon, Sydney arrived at her private room. She pulled open the door and walked in.Clarice glanced at Sydney's private room and the M
Chapter 973 Who Are the People in the Private Box?"I didn't know at first," Julien continued, "Hunter came to me and wanted to talk to me about government investment earlier. When we were talking, Hunter received a gift, which was sent by Clarice, and that day was White Valentine's Day. Hunter looked very unhappy at that time and told me that this was not the first time that Clarice had sent gifts to him. More than that, he even said that Clarice often found opportunities to encounter him. Therefore, it’s not difficult to know Clarice’s thoughts." "Wow, I can’t believe this..." Sydney was shocked. Julien nodded, "At that time, we were not back together, and this thing had nothing to do with you and me, so I didn't tell you." Sydney became silent. She didn’t know what to say, and she also didn’t know whether she should sympathize with Hunter, who was pursued by Clarice. Meanwhile, she thought it was a little funny. "Then it has been a while since Clarice has fallen in love w
Chapter 974 Reassured Sydney "Hmm," Julien rubbed his fork and asked, "You should know that Brandon and his wife suspected that you were their daughter, right?" Sydney nodded, and a trace of annoyance flashed in her eyes, "I know it. I held a press conference to show evidence that Madeline was lying. At that press conference, I took the initiative to tell the media that I was not my parents' biological daughter but was picked up by my father on the third day after my father took Clarice away. Because of those words, Brandon and his wife suspected that I was their daughter, Clarice Madden. It was really funny. At that time, Clarice had done a paternity test and had come back to them, but they still suspected that I might be Clarice. I’m kind of sympathized with Clarice." Noticing the mockery on her face, Julien felt a little guilty, but he still showed a calm face, "But there is one thing you don't know." Sydney looked at him curiously, "What is it?" Julien lowered his eyes, "
Chapter 975 Leave Here"Dad, what's up?" Clarice looked at Brandon and asked with confusion.Brandon signaled her to look at Mrs. Madden. "Your mom is calling you."When learning that Mrs. Madden was calling her, Clarice turned to look at her. "Mom, what’s the matter?""Darling, what are you thinking about? I called you several times, but you didn't respond to me." Though Mrs. Madden furrowed her eyebrows, there was undisguised worry on her face.Although she didn't love Clarice very much, she wanted to be a responsible mom.So, she cared about Clarice."Nothing," Clarice prevaricated, lowering her head.Mrs. Madden and Brandon looked at each other, both of whom knew clearly that Clarice was lying to them.Mrs. Madden sighed. "Clarice, are you still minding what I said last time in your dad's ward? If you are still minding it, how about I apologize to you again? I’m sorry. I didn't say those words on purpose. As you had just come back, I was not used to being with you and said
