Chapter 983 To Watch Meteor Shower with YouAfter faking her death and escaping, she vanished without a trace.Even after Finn revealed clues about Lyra's whereabouts, all attempts to find her had been unsuccessful.This left him feeling angry and frustrated.He wondered if Lyra was skilled at hiding or if someone was helping her.

Chapter 984 Why Are You Drinking Again"It's okay. You still have me," Julien whispered, looking at her.Sydney froze. "You?"Julien nodded. "Yeah, I'll be there watching meteors with you in the days to come."Sydney laughed. "You just said we could watch it, but isn't it tiring if we go up the mountain every day?"That indeed sounded like a problem.Julien pursed his lips for a moment and then said, "How about we watch it once in a while?"Touched by his sincere gaze, Sydney couldn't say no.After all, it was her wish, not his, to watch the meteor."Yeah." Sydney nodded with a smile.Julien handed her a glass. "Don't worry. I'll make it all up with you until there is no more regret.""Good." Sydney took the glass and rested her head on his shoulder.Then something crossed her mind. She put her head back and looked down at the wine in the glass.Julien was puzzled by her sudden action."You're drinking again!" Sydney said, clutching the glass."Huh?" Julien was drinking
Chapter 985 This Wine Is So Sweet"Cheers!" Sydney clinked glasses with Julien.After a crisp sound, she withdrew her glass and tilted her head to take a sip of wine.The moment it entered her mouth, she made a surprised sound.Julien turned his head to look at her and asked, "What's wrong?"Sydney put the glass down and said, "This wine is so sweet."Julien smiled and nodded, "Of course, I chose it for you. It's more like juice than wine and not as strong as other red wines. It's sweet and suitable for women with low alcohol tolerance."That's really good." Sydney blinked, tilted her head, and took another sip."Do you like it?" Julien asked, fondling the glass.Sydney replied, "Yeah. It's perfect.""I'll send a few cases to Shallow Bay. I have a winery making this wine," Julien said as he took a sip.Sydney was somewhat tempted, but she did not immediately agree. She asked, "How much for a bottle of this wine?""It is quite cheap. 30,000 dollars a bottle," Julien answered
Chapter 986 The Chosen OneAnyway, Sydney was now embarrassed.She probably knew why the assistant had that look on her face when she saw her and Julien going back to the lounge.The assistant might have heard it too.It was so awkward.Sydney wanted to cry.Julien was amused. "I thought that you had pushed me away because you had suddenly thought of something big, but it turned out to be these small things. It was no big deal. We are lovers. It is normal for us to canoodle. Sofia is an adult. She will not laugh at us, and in the future, we won't see her often, so we don't have to worry about that, right?""Well..." Sydney put her hands down from her face in a daze. "That seems to make sense.""That’s it," Julien stroked her head."But I still feel embarrassed. It's all your fault!" Sydney pouted.Julien smiled slightly and took her into his arms. "Okay, why don't you hit me?""You think I don't dare?" Sydney said, waved her fist, and punched Julien's chest.But her actions
Chapter 987 Zach Complained About the Couple in His Mind"No." Sydney hurriedly waved her hand before Julien came over to her. "No, I'm not a cripple. Why do I need you to pick me up?" As she said, she started to put on her shoes.Julien stood beside her and raised his eyebrows. "Are you sure?""I'm sure." She nodded as she put on her slippers.Julien snickered, "Fine then! Let me see if you can walk on your own."A little confused, Sydney sensed a hint of mockery in his tone.She looked up at him, but she didn't notice anything strange. She shook her head again, albeit a little dizzy, "Why can't I walk on my own? Surely, I can."Then she jerked to her feet.However, her legs instantly went weak when she stood up. She lunged forward.Sydney was terrified and her face turned pale. She let out a shriek.Julien calmly took a step forward and caught her in his arms.Sydney fell into his arms. Smelling the minty scent on his body and feeling the warmth of his arms, she was reliev
Chapter 988 Julien Removed His Robe in Her Face"..." Sydney was speechless.Julien had a point. She couldn't argue with him.She couldn't foresee what would happen. She couldn't see the accident in advance. It could happen in the next second or tomorrow.After a few seconds of silence, Sydney shook Julien's arm and played cute, "OK. I'll be careful. Don't be mad, okay?"She tilted her head to look at him, and she looked so cute.Julien wasn't angry. He just showed an angry face to let her know he was worried about her.Now Sydney admitted she was wrong and he couldn't keep the angry face on.How could he keep that stern face when she looked so cute?Julien cupped Sydney's cheek with his hand, and then he squeezed her cheek until her lips puckered.Julien kissed her on the lips. Then he released her cheek. "Okay. Let's go. Time for breakfast."Sydney let out a snort.'Damn it! He took advantage of me again!'Julien noticed Sydney's annoyance, but he ignored it. He had a sm
Chapter 989 He's DifferentHearing Zach's words, Julien recalled it. What Zach had said was the fact.'Not long after I divorced Sydney, I took Lyra to the resort to take a vacation.'Sydney and Luke also went there.'That time, Lyra deliberately splashed body wash on the ground in Sydney's shower stall. Sydney slipped and fell into a coma.'If Sydney hadn't been found in time, she would have been dead.'When he thought of it now, he still felt terrified and hated himself.'Although I had been hypnotized and thought that I loved Lyra, I didn't expect myself to lose conscience. When I learned later that Lyra wanted to kill Sydney, I still chose to calm the situation to cover for Lyra, who almost killed Sydney.'What was worse, this kind of thing happened more than once.'Though I didn't mean to do those things, I can't deny that I did those things. It's a fact that I hurt my beloved woman many times for a vicious woman.'Seeing that Julien frowned and his gaze became guilty, Z
Chapter 990 A Thorough ExaminationSydney teased Julien, "I thought that you even would be jealous of doctors."In the next second, Julien reached out his hand, held her waist, and pulled her into his arms. He pressed his forehead against hers and said in a deep and pleasant voice, "I'm not that narrow-minded to regard doctors as normal men."Anyway, in Julien's eyes, Finn wasn't a normal man.Now that Finn wasn't a normal man, Julien wouldn't be jealous of him.Sydney chuckled. "You're right. Mr. Flint is the most generous man.""You're right." Julien lifted his chin. Although he kept calm, she could clearly feel that he felt proud.She felt funny and shook her head. "Alright, let go of me. Doctor James is waiting for me."Julien raised his head and glanced at Finn, who stood behind Sydney not far away. "Just let him wait for a while. It doesn't matter."After Julien finished speaking, he lowered his head and kissed her lips.Finn leaned against the door frame, put one hand
