Therefore, Erin decided to test and see how Sydney would retaliate, so that she could know how Sydney would counterattack and could get to know her enemy better.
In this way, she would be able to deal with Sydney in the future.
She had thought this plan was perfect, but unexpectedly, Julien actually intervened. Not only did he clarify that the rumors were false, he also said that he believed Sydney would not betray him.
This was completely out of character for Julien.
He had never shown any interest in online matters before, so his sudden involvement was undoubtedly a red flag.
He must have been coerced by Sydney, who even made him sever ties with the McDaniel family, which was extremely despicable.
Sydney was even more difficult to deal with than she had imagined!
The more Erin dwelled on it, the deeper her resentment towards Sydney grew. Her cute face twisted in anger.
Taking a moment to calm herself, Erin closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and rose from the sofa. She approached the broken phone, retrieved the SIM card, and proceeded to her bedroom. From the bedside table, she retrieved a spare phone, inserted the card, and dialed a number.
"How is it? Have the procedures for my return to Mediana been completed?"
The person on the other end of the phone immediately replied, "Miss, everything has been arranged."
"Good, I will leave for the airport immediately." Erin narrowed her eyes and replied with a sinister tone.
Finally, she would be able to return to her homeland!
Erin's eyes flickered with uncontrollable excitement and fanaticism.
‘When I return to my country this time, I will definitely free Julien from the clutches of Sydney!’ she thought.
Sydney had no inkling of the trouble that awaited her.
At this moment, she stood in front of the freezer, clutching a box of ice cream, engaged in a heated argument with Julien.
This was what had happened three minutes ago:
The two of them finished shopping for groceries and meat. As they walked past the ice cream aisle, Sydney's eyes were drawn to a tempting mango-flavored ice cream. She couldn't resist the temptation and reached out to grab a box, gleefully placing it in the shopping cart.
However, Julien swiftly took the ice cream from her hand and returned it to the freezer.
For a moment, time seemed to stand still for Sydney. Her joyful expression froze, and she stared at Julien with no immediate reaction.
It took a while for Sydney to snap out of her daze when Julien tried to pull her away from the ice cream aisle. She yanked her hand out of his grip, her eyes turning red as she pouted at him. "Julien, why did you put my ice cream back?"
Despite her anger, Julien remained calm. "You can't eat this."
"Why not?" Sydney widened her eyes, finding his words quite amusing. "If you can't give me a valid explanation, you'll be sleeping on the couch tonight."
The mention of "sleeping on the couch" caused Julien's pupils to slightly contract, and his expression turned serious instantly. "I'm doing this for your own good. Have you forgotten how you had a stomachache after eating something cold the other day?"
He recalled that it happened when they were making out, and before they could further the intimacy, Sydney's face suddenly turned pale and she started sweating profusely, clutching her stomach in excruciating pain. In a state of panic, Julien held her up and took her to the community clinic, fearing that something serious had occurred.
