Julien's hand on the windowsill tightened violently as if he were about to smash the windowsill.
Zach came in and sensed a cold, frightening aura around Julien.
He then asked, "Mr. Flint, what's wrong?"
Julien didn't answer. He kept staring out of the window with narrowed eyes.
Zach walked over to the window and looked in the direction of Julien’s sight. Then he saw Sydney and Hunter.
Immediately, he understood everything.
No wonder Julien looked so angry. When Zach had just come in, he was wondering what had annoyed Julien.
It turned out that Sydney and Hunter were here for dinner together!
"Mr. Flint, shall we go to meet Ms. Raines?" Zach asked, standing behind Julien.
Julien's thin lips tightened into a thin line," No."
"Uh...” Zach looked at him in surprise," We're not going to meet Ms. Raines?"
Julien shook his head.
Zach couldn’t believe it. "But Ms. Raines and Mr. Cohen are having dinner together, and they seem happy. You..."
"That's it. Go see if Mr. Cooper is here yet. We're going back to the hospital in an hour and a half." Julien interrupted Zach, his brows furrowed. Then he turned and headed for the couch in the private room.
Zach looked downstairs. He followed
Julien and reported, ”1 just called Mr.
Cooper. He's stuck in traffic. He'll be here in about ten minutes."
Julien nodded and didn't say anything else. He sat down on the couch and picked up a magazine and opened it.
Julien looked like he was reading the magazine intently, but Zach noticed that Julien's pupils were lax. Julien was clearly lost in thought.
Zach knew why Julien was absent-minded.
'It must be because of Ms. Raines and Mr. Cohen.'
'Mr. Flint loves Ms. Raines so much. How can he not mind it when he sees Ms.
Raines with another man? He should be very jealous.' 'Mr. Flint is a domineering man. If it was before, he would have gone downstairs to meet Ms. Raines and tell Mr. Cohen to leave. He would never have left Ms. Raines alone with another man.'
'But Mr. Flint didn't do that. That's so weird!
Zach could see that Julien actually wanted to go down and drive Mr. Cohen away, or bring Sydney up to his room.
But Julien did not do that, as if he had some concerns, which made Zach very confused.
Thinking about this, Zach looked at Julien, and his eyes behind his glasses were full of confusion.
He used to be able to guess what Julien was thinking, but ever since Julien came back from the cliff fall, his mind had gotten deeper and deeper.
Now Zach, who used to know Julien so well, had no idea what Julien was thinking.
Sydney looked up at a window on the second floor. Her brows were slightly furrowed as if something was bothering her.
Hunter cut a piece of steak and put it in his mouth. "What's wrong? What are you looking at?"
"I felt like someone was looking at me," Sydney said with some uncertainty.
Hunter stopped his knife and fork in disbelief, "Someone was looking at you?"
"I think so." Sydney nodded.
Hunter looked up in the direction of her sight. "Should I ask the waiter who’s in that room?" "No need." Sydney waved her hand and declined, "What's the point? The person was just looking at me. He didn't do anything. If you ask the waiter, it might annoy the person in the room, and that could cause unnecessary trouble. This is a restaurant. Don't get ourselves in trouble. I’ll just ignore it."
"You're right." Hunter nodded. Then he pushed a desert in front of Sydney. "Taste it. This restaurant has very good desserts."
