Sydney had been busy with a lot of things lately, and she was also dealing with Clarice's affair. Then she had really forgotten it.
Without Julien's reminder, she might not have recalled it.
"Got it. I'll go." Sydney nodded.
When Julien heard her answer, his eyes glistened with some joy. "Okay, I'll ask someone to take you an invitation later.” "Okay, I'll hang up then." After finishing this, Sydney simply handed the phone to Erika, signaling her to hang up.
Erika took the phone and asked, "Don’t you want to chat a little more with Mr. Flint?" "I don’t have anything else to talk to him," Sydney pinched the part between her brows and answered.
Erika glanced at the phone’s call interface with sympathy as if to sympathize with Julien through it.
"Got it. I'll hang up then." Erika was not saying this only to Sydney but also to Julien at the other end of the line.
Julien felt helpless when he realized that Sydney wanted to hang up only after saying a few words to him.
But it was useless to feel helpless. Anyway, he didn't have anything else to tell Sydney.
And she was unwilling to go chit-chat with him.
"Hung up then," Julien heaved an almost soundless sigh and said to Erika.
Hearing it, Erika hung up the phone.
In the evening, Sydney got the invitation brought over by Julien's man.
She could not see what was in the invitation, so Erika read it to her. It was mainly about the specific time and location of the Old Madam's banquet.
After learning all this by heart, Sydney asked Erika to put the invitation away.
The Old Madam's eighty-year-old birthday party would be held in half a month, during which her vision would surely recover.
She would go prepare her dress for the banquet and give the Old Madam her present, an act which, she believed, was not so late by then.
The next day, Sydney washed up with the help of Erika and sat at the dining table eating breakfast.
The doorbell rang at this time.
Erika was pouring milk for Sydney. When she heard the doorbell, she put down the milk bottle and said, "Ms. Raines, I'll go to the door."
"Okay." Sydney took a bit of her sandwich and nodded.
Erika cleaned her hand with her apron and walked toward the door.
She opened the door and saw the visitor, but the visitor slightly narrowed his eyes and asked, "Who are you?"
"I'm Ms. Raines's maid," Erika answered, and then she asked, "And who are you, sir?" "I'm Layden," Layden introduced himself.
Erika immediately knew who he was. "Oh, I see. You're Mr. Lowe."
"You know me?" Layden was slightly surprised.
Erika answered with a smile, "I heard Ms. Raines speak of you. Come in, Mr. Lowe."
"I see." When he heard Erika's words, Layden put on a very happy smile and stepped into the apartment.
"Sydney," Layden came to the living room and called when seeing Sydney having breakfast.
Hearing his voice, Sydney said with joy," Why did you come, Cay?"
"My agent got me a role in a movie, asking me to make a guest appearance as a model in the movie, so I'm going to the studio city to make the appearance. Your home is on the way to the studio city, so I came upstairs to see you," Layden answered with a smile.
Sydney nodded and said, "Oh, I see. Not bad! You've entered the showbiz from the modeling industry. Are you going to carve out a career path in the showbiz?"
"No. I just think being an actor is interesting, so I simply want to experience it and have fun," Layden shook his head and said.
Sydney chuckled, "It’s fine to experience it and have fun. By the way, have you had breakfast?"
"Not yet." Layden stroked his belly.
