Sir, Madam Dispeared Again After Divorce! novel Chapter 416

Clarice’s Fear "Sydney, there is something 1 need to do. I'm afraid I can’t ride you back," Julien said, looking at Sydney.

Sydney's lips parted, and she said blandly," It's okay. Let’s go, Erika."

Erika nodded and continued to wheel her towards the elevator.

Julien watched and suddenly said when the two were about to enter the elevator," Sydney, have you ever heard of a saying?"

"Huh?" Sydney turned her head in confusion, "What is it?"

"Opportunities are earned rather than given," Julien said, curling his lips.

Sydney frowned. "What are you trying to say?"

"Since you're unwilling to give me a chance, I'll earn one myself. I believe I'll win your heart one day," Julien replied, his throat bobbing. The look on his face couldn't be more serious.

He fell in love with her twice.

And he believed she would love him twice as long as he worked hard.

Sydney snorted. "Is that so? Have a try, and you'll see. Erika, off we go."

She patted the armrest of her wheelchair.

Erika turned around, made a quick cheering motion to Julien, and then wheeled Sydney into the elevator.

Following a ding, the elevator door closed. Julien turned around and headed in the opposite direction.

There was a conference room.

Julien saw two police officers guarding the door.

He went over and bowed to them. "Thank you for your help."

"No worries, Mr. Flint, but you only have half an hour. Then we'll take her back to the detention center. In a word, make it quick," One of the police officers said, checking his watch.

Julien nodded slightly, pushed open the door, and entered the conference room.

As soon as the person inside heard the creak of the door, she got up from the chair and looked into the doorway.

At the sight of Julien, Clarice tensed up. Her hands clasped on her sides, and she called out nervously, "Mr. Flint."

Julien strode up, his shoes clicking on the floor. Along with it, her heart thumped, and her anxiety grew stronger.

Julien stopped at a place two steps away from Clarice and asked in an icy voice," Weren't Brandon and his wife with you?"

"No," Clarice nodded repeatedly, "my parents intended to go to the detention center with me, but I declined. I couldn't let them know about this meeting."

Julien snorted with sarcasm. "You call them parents so naturally."

Clarice certainly could tell he was mocking and reminding her that Brandon and his wife were not really her parents.

She was upset but did not dare to retort.

Although it had been only about a month since she entered the upper class, she knew the rules, especially the hierarchies and the boundaries of status in the circle. On the second day after she entered the Madden family's house, Mr. Madden told her matters that needed attention lest she should carelessly offend those higher-ups.

As Lyra's engagement with Julien was canceled, the reputation of the Madden family suffered a disastrous decline. Many of those who used to fawn upon the Madden family now transformed into something they couldn't afford to offend, and Julien was the last person they wanted to mess with.

It was not only because of his family but also his capability and means. He was called a business tyrant for a reason.
