Julien did not expect Sydney to say such a thing, and clear dismay flashed in his eyes.
Seeing Sydney's red face and unfocused eyes, he furrowed his brows and yanked the tie out of her hands.
"You're drunk, Sydney."
“No, I'm sober!" Sydney yelled. Then, she grabbed the man's tie again and looked at his face with a silly smile. "Say, you're really handsome. You're exactly my type. Do you want to sleep with me?"

"I-I’m telling you. I used to be married, but I'm divorced because my ex-husband...” Sydney reached out and wiggled her snow-white fingers. "Couldn't do it."
Julien’s expression darkened, and his voice turned cold. "Couldn’t do what?"
"Geez," Sydney muttered. "I was married to him for six years, but he never even kissed me. Look! I'm such a stunner, yet he never slept with me. Isn’t it obvious he can't do it?"
Julien wanted to laugh in anger.
It was Sydney who suggested both the marriage and the divorce, so he did not expect her to give him that label in her heart!
"Mister, you’re really handsome." Sydney’s body swayed and flopped into the man's embrace. Then, she reached out and tenderly stroked his thin lips." Your lips look beautiful too. It's like they're seducing me..."
She stood on her tiptoes and kissed the man's lips.
The gentle kiss and the faint fragrance of perfume tantalized Julien's nerves.
He remembered the day he fed Sydney medicine in the car. His hand could not help but wrap around Sydney’s waist, pressing the person into his arms and deepening the kiss.
After the kiss, Julien sobered a little and let her go. His voice was hoarse with restraint. "You're drunk, Sydney."
"I'm not drunk! Why did you stop kissing me?" Sydney poked the man's chest with her hand, her expression resentful. "Say, are you the same as my ex-husband...?"

"Boring,” Sydney muttered before she staggered and turned to leave. "I’m going to find another man..."
Julien’s face sank at those words. Soon, he caught up to her with his long legs, picked her up bridal style, walked straight into the elevator, and looked down at her coldly.
"Sydney Raines, you'll pay for what you said."
Lyra, whom Julien sent home, was chatting in the WhatsApp group and trying to get closer with Macy and the others.
Seeing that it was getting late, she guessed that Julien should be almost done with work and sent him three messages in a row. However, a few minutes passed without him replying.
She was just about to make a video call when another WhatsApp message popped up.
Lyra knew that Sydney was going to celebrate Luke's birthday at Club Lunaris, and Julien was also at the club. As such, she asked Kate to keep an eye out for her because she was worried.
[KateMorgan: F*ck, f*ck, f*ck. Sydney is so shameless. Why doesn't she just go to hell?"
Lyra had a bad feeling in her heart and hurriedly asked: [What did you see? Was Julien with her?]
[KateMorgan: Lyra, you have to hold on... I saw Sydney kissing President Flint, and he took her upstairs. I followed them up secretly from the lower floor and saw them enter a room together, but they didn’t come out...]
They entered the room together and did not come out.
Upon reading those words, Lyra bit her lips fiercely and almost pierced through the skin. Her gentle expression became twisted and out of control.
She hated Sydney so much that she wanted to tear her apart.
Eight years ago, it was her who took Sydney's place and met Julien as 'Maple Leaf, but so what? That was still Sydney's fault!
It was Sydney who only took him as a pen pal and was not willing to get to know him.
That was why it was Lyra who first met Julien, and it was Lyra who first fell in love with him. He was her man!
Kate sent her another message: [I think President Flint must have been seduced by that b*tch and is momentarily confused. I'm going to knock on their door to wake him up now.]
Lyra stopped her: [Don't. If you go, Julien will know that you’re following him. I'm worried about Julien, but I don’t want to involve you since you're innocent.]
[KateMorgan: It's clearly Sydney’s fault, but you put up with her time and time again. You're too kind-hearted, Lyra. It's heartbreaking.]
[LyraMadden: It's okay, I believe in Julien. I’ll wait for him to come back and give me an explanation.
Thanks for tonight. You can go back and rest. Also, keep this matter between us. I don’t want anyone else to find out, okay?]
After sending the message, she transferred 30,000 dollars to Kate.
