Semua Bab My Wife Wants a Divorce!: Bab 161 - Bab 170

"Really?" the Old Madam asked with a vague smile.Julien's voice was cold and hard. "Of course! I said before that I’ll never regret it. Not now, not ever.""Is that so? Alright, then." The Old Madam nodded and stopped talking.'Not now, not ever? Really?'The Old Madam laughed.'I hope you don't eat your words in the future.'"By the way, I hope you won't tell anyone about our conversation today, especially Lyra and the Madden family. Do you understand?" The Old Madam gave Julien a warning look, implying that she would never let him off if he told them.Julien raised his chin. "I know, I won't say anything. I promised Sydney that I won't help the Madden family, so I naturally won't tell them about this.""Good, then you can also..." Before she could finish speaking, she suddenly saw the hawthorn on the bed and slapped the quilt. "Syd forgot about the hawthorn."Julien's eyes flashed shrewdly.He knew from the beginning that Sydney had forgotten to take away the hawthorn, but

Otherwise, Hunter would have dealt with it directly and would not have made this trip here at all.Sydney did not respond to the latter part of his sentence and frowned at him suspiciously. "You'll handle it?""Yep." Hunter nodded.Sydney smiled. "But this is my business, right? I'm very thankful to you for helping me discover the truth and find evidence, but I'm very curious. Why do you want to handle it? This has nothing to do with you, doesn't it?""Let me clear something up first. I'm not doing this for you. I'm doing it for myself." Hunter held up a hand as if afraid that she would misunderstand.Sydney rolled her eyes at him. "Tell me. I want to know the reason.""It's nothing much. As you know, the Cohen family and the Madden family had a falling out. This time, the Cohen family lost to the Wright family and we didn't win the position of mayor." Hunter's eyes narrowed dangerously.Sydney was stunned. "What? You didn't win the position? Last time, I heard Luke say that the

When the person outside the office heard footsteps getting closer and closer, he looked around and immediately turned around, swiftly walking toward the emergency staircase.After waiting for two minutes, the man heard the sound of the elevator door closing before coming out of the stairs again. He looked at Sydney's office, took out his phone, and dialed a number.In Flint Corporation, Zach was standing next to Julien's desk sorting out information when he heard his phone ring. He stopped his actions and said, "President Flint, I'll take the call."Julien's fingers continued tapping on the keyboard. When he heard Zach's words, he hummed without even lifting his head.After getting permission, Zach took out his phone and looked at the caller ID. His glasses glinted. "President Flint, it's Leslie.""Who?" Julien's brows wrinkled, not remembering who the person was for a moment.Zach reminded him, "It's the assistant in Skylight that we paid off last time. He often goes to Presiden

After the end of the call, Julien put down his phone, his eyes dark and obscure.He was thinking about what Hunter said.Maybe Hunter was right. Sometimes, if some things were delayed, uncontrollable developments might end up occurring.At that thought, Julien picked up his phone and tapped into Sydney's chatroom. [I know about your pregnancy.]Sydney was reading documents when her phone suddenly vibrated.She looked up and was surprised to see that it was a message from Z-H.It had not been long since the chat ended. Why did he send a message again?"What did he say?" Sydney opened it curiously.However, when she saw the contents of the message, her whole body stiffened.He knew?Sydney clenched her fist and took the phone with a frown. [How did you know?][Z-H: Your friend went to Hunter, and Hunter told me.]Sydney was struck by a realization at those words and could not help but slap her forehead.So, that was it. She thought that he planted his people around her.Sur

Julien had been paying attention to the changes in Sydney's expression.When he saw her disappointed look, for some reason, his heart was unable to bear it.However, her ability was clear from what she wrote in her proposal. Even if he could not bear it, he could not open the back door for her.Brandon smiled happily when he learned that he won a cooperation spot.He knew the level of his proposal. It was impossible for him to get a spot, but he ended up getting it anyway.This showed that for Lyra's sake, Julien abandoned the principle of not engaging in nepotism and opened the back door for his father-in-law.At that thought, Brandon's gaze when he looked at Julien grew increasingly smug.As expected of his son-in-law.Julien frowned.Why was Brandon looking at him like that?He did not dwell on the matter and pursed his lips, saying in a cold voice, "The five partners have been decided. You can go to Flint Corporation this time tomorrow to sign the contract. Now, I'll show
