Mrs. Madden also thought that Julien was willing to save Lyra. Her heart was overjoyed as she threw a smug look at Sydney behind him, clearly saying, 'Look, even if you don't let Lyra off, someone else will save her'.
Sydney almost vomited in disgust.
When Julien saw Mrs. Madden's behavior, his eyes became even colder.
Mrs. Madden did not notice at all and said excitedly, "It's simple. As long as you talk to the police, with your status, they'll listen to you. At worst, you can ask the Cohen family to come forward. The Cohen family is powerful. If they ask for it, the police will let Lyra go." "Hah." Julien sneered. "You think highly of me. Yes, it's true that I can save Lyra, but why would I do that?"
When he said that, the happy look on Mrs. Madden's face suddenly froze. "What...
What do you mean? "
Sydney also looked at the man in front of her in surprise.
What?
Did he not plan on saving Lyra anymore?
Clarice's eyes also lit up. Her hands clasped together excitedly.
She thought that Lyra would be saved by Julien.
Unexpectedly, Julien turned around and changed his mind again!
"What I mean is that I won't save her!" Julien curled his lips mockingly.
Mrs. Madden's eyes widened. "You won't save Lyra? But you said..." "When did I say I'd save her?" Julien interrupted her impatiently. "I just asked how I was supposed to save her. I didn’t promise to save her, did I?"
"..." Mrs. Madden was instantly at a loss for words.
Yes, he only asked how he would save her, not that he would save her.
She just assumed that he would.
Sydney was in a good mood when she saw Mrs. Madden's crestfallen look. The anger she had for Julien in her heart dissipated.
She had just decided that if Julien wanted to save Lyra, she would just take him down with her. Even if she could not bring down the Madden family, she would bring him down instead.
Fortunately, he was still clear-headed and did not do that.
When Julien felt the gaze of the woman behind him turning calm and not as sharp, he knew that she was not angry with him anymore.
He looked back at her and said gently, "I won't let you down again in the future."
Sydney raised her brows and said indifferently, "President Flint, I'm no one to you. You don't have to make such promises to me."
Julien looked at her seriously. "Whether we have a relationship or not, I want you to know that no matter what happens in the future, I’ll only stand by our side. That's my promise to you."
Before Sydney could react to those words,
Mrs. Madden could not accept them.
She pointed at Sydney. "Julien, is it her? Did she tell you not to save Lyra?"
Sydney laughed in anger.
What did this have to do with her?
She never said such things to Julien.
Julien frowned and stared at Mrs. Madden with disgust. "It has nothing to do with Sydney. It's my own intention. Do you think I'd save someone who repeatedly plotted against the woman I love?"
When Sydney heard the words "the woman I love", she subconsciously turned her head away and did not look at Julien.
Julien noticed her movement from the corner of his eyes, and his gaze dimmed. He sighed in his heart.
She was still unwilling to believe in his sincerity.
Mrs. Madden opened her mouth and said guiltily, "E...Even if that's the case, Lyra only did that because she loves you too much!"
"She loves me, so she impersonated the one I love and then harmed her? What kind of logic is that?" Julien's expression fell abruptly as he questioned in a stern voice.
Mrs. Madden's body trembled. "Lyra was wrong, but... Sydney is completely fine, isn't she? Besides, you've been with Lyra for several months. Don't you have any feelings for her at all?"
"Then let me ask you. If the person you love isn't Brandon but another man, and Brandon knew about it but harmed the man you love, would you have feelings for Brandon?" Julien examined her.
