The Mediana National Bank's head office manager, Chaim Houston, tweeted: "@Ms. Raines is right. I was also at the hotel yesterday afternoon, so the so-called news online is completely unfounded. I hope you guys won't be fooled. Those involved in it should apologize and admit their mistakes to avoid unnecessary trouble."
Seeing the content posted by Chaim, Sydney was quite surprised.
Julien and Luke looked up at her together.
"What's wrong?" Julien asked first.
Sydney handed him the phone and said, "Chaim also helped clarify."
Julien raised his chin slightly, "He should stand up since he received so many benefits from me."
"By the way, I forgot to ask. Since you helped me get the parts back, you should know that the owner of ZX breached the contract and gave the parts to Dallin. Given your personality, you probably won't let him off the hook," Sydney said, raising her eyebrows.
Julien curled his lips, neither confirming nor denying.
"Sure enough." Sydney looked at him and asked, "What happened to him?"
"Openly breaching the contract is no longer something that can be resolved with compensation alone. He violated commercial law, and I threw him into prison," Julien replied casually.
Sydney knew that things couldn't be that simple.
"Did you do anything before throwing him into prison?" Sydney asked, narrowing her eyes.
A smile was his only answer, but his meaning was clear.
Before going to prison, the man must have suffered.
"How is ZX now?" Sydney asked again.
"ZX is about to undergo a change of power. I believe they will fight fiercely next. If you are interested in ZX, you can secretly buy its stocks at their lowest price. Although ZX is not very big, it has some strength. It won't be a losing business," Julien replied, tapping on the desk.
Sydney pondered for a moment before her eyes lit up. "Okay. I have some money now. I'll give it a try."
"I'll tell you when is the best time to buy," Julien added.
Sydney hummed in consent.
Sitting across from them, Luke couldn't help but chime in. "Wait! You got the parts back?"
He pointed to Julien.
Sydney smiled at him, saying, "Yes, shortly after I returned from borrowing a loan from Chaim yesterday, I received news that the parts had been brought back by Julien."
"I see." Luke nodded in realization, then looked at Julien dissatisfiedly, "Then why didn't you get it back earlier? If you had, we wouldn't have had to find Chaim or have been photographed. All of this could have been avoided."
Julien frowned.
Sydney put away her smile and said unhappily, "It's not like that. I didn't tell Julien about the parts being intercepted. He didn't know. Even if he helped get the parts back later, it wasn't because I told him, but because he found out by chance. So, you can't blame him."
Julien raised his eyelids and looked contemptuously at Luke. The meaning in his eyes was very clear.
'Did you hear that?
'Don't even think about blaming me for everything.'
Luke was annoyed, but he couldn't do anything about it.
Indeed, if Julien didn't know, his words just now were a bit unreasonable.
