It was surprising that the Trison Corporation decided to look for the necklace when Sydney just got hold of it. Moreover, the statement specifically looked for a girl with a special necklace.
In other words, the Maddens wanted to look for the girl and not the necklace.
"Find out why the Maddens want to look for a girl with the special necklace," Julian said with his hand on the armrest.
The Maddens were looking for Sydney.
Just that the Maddens did not know it yet.
"Yes." Zach nodded.
Julien lowered his head and took out his phone. After a short moment of hesitation, he made a call.
Skylight Corporation.
Sydney was in the middle of making edits on a difficult document. Just as she finally got an idea, her phone rang and interrupted her train of thoughts.
Sydney picked up the phone and placed it next to her ear without looking at the caller ID. "Yes?"
Julien was silent when he heard the impatience in Sydney's voice.
She did not even like picking up his call?
"If you remain silent, I'll hang up." Sydney rubbed her eyebrows when the other side remained silent.
Julien pursed his lips and finally spoke. "It's me."
When Sydney heard his voice, she was stunned. She looked at the caller ID, saw that it was Julien's phone number, and placed the phone back next to her ear. Her voice became calmer. "President Flint, what's the matter?"
"Have you seen the release of Trison Corporation's official statement?" Julien asked her.
"Statement?" Sydney had no idea. "What statement?" Obviously, she had not seen it.
Could he be considered the first one who told her about this, then?
With a little joy in his heart, Julien cleared his throat and said, "The Maddens are looking for a girl with a special necklace, which is you."
"What? The Maddens are looking for me?" Sydney's hand tightened on her pen.
Julien nodded. "That's right. However, they don’t know that the person is you because they don't know that you have the necklace."
"Wait. Let me check something." Sydney put down her pen, placed her phone between her ear and her shoulder, and typed something on her keyboard.
Very quickly, she saw the statement on Trison
Corporation’s official website.
"That’s weird. How did the Maddens find out that the necklace is still around?" Sydney's eyebrows were in a tight furrow.
Like Julien, she wondered how the Maddens found out about the necklace.
This statement told them that the Maddens knew the existence of the necklace, and were looking for the one holding it.
"I'm not sure. But they released the statement a few days after you got the necklace. I thought they might have found out about the necklace by accident." Julien made a guess.
Sydney nodded and agreed.
"If the Maddens knew about the necklace by accident, then they should only look for the necklace. However, the statement clearly said they are looking for a girl. Did they think that Clarice Madden is still alive?” Sydney asked.
Julien's pupils constricted. "Maybe you're right. The Maddens thought that Clarice Madden was still alive."
It was unknown where the Maddens got the news from. They found out that Clarice’s necklace is still around, but they did not know that it was with Sydney. They only knew that a girl had it.
They instantly assumed that the girl happened to be Clarice, and released a statement like that.
"No way." Sydney was shocked. She stood up and continued, "Grandma said that my father drowned Clarice. How is that possible...?"
"Why not?" Julien cut her off. "Your necklace is the evidence."
Necklace?
Sydney subconsciously touched the necklace on her neck.
To prevent herself from losing it, she had the necklace with her all this while.
