Sydney was pretending to be asleep to avoid chatting with Hunter.
Seeing that they were almost at Port City Middle School, she pulled out her phone to ask where Jayden was only to see a push notification from a business news app.
It turned out that two executives at Flint Corporation's South Lake branch and Loughtown branch ran away with money amounting to more than 75 million dollars, causing Brandon Madden to faint from anger.
The picture below was of a fainted Brandon being sent to the hospital.
Brandon’s money was taken away?
Great!
Sydney simply wanted to applaud at the news. She even wanted to thank the two executives who took Brandon's money and ran away.
Since she knew that the Raines family’s bankruptcy was related to Brandon, she had been trying to collect evidence and clear her father’s name. However, she could not find any clues.
She was naturally overjoyed to see Brandon being carried into the hospital!
When the car arrived at the entrance of the school, Hunter parked the car and unfastened his seatbelt while asking Sydney, "What are you going to do here? I remember that your family doesn't have relatives to deal with after they went bankrupt."
Sydney glanced at him. "Do you care about me so much that you did a background check on me?"
"We’re working together. It's only natural for me to check your background for my own benefit." Hunter jutted his lower lip out and chuckled. "Why? Did you think I took a fancy on you, Ms. Raines?"
It H
"It’s okay for you to think so." He rubbed his chin and said, "A divorcee as well as my good brother's woman. I'd like to have a try and see how different you are from other women."
"..." Sydney felt that compared to Hunter, Luke was simply an angel.
She ignored Hunter and went to the school gate to tell the security guard Jayden's name. She wrote 'parent' under the visitor column.
At that moment, her phone vibrated with a text message. It was a notification that there was a transaction on her bank card.
Sydney counted the number of zeros and was shocked.
15 million?
Did some company try to pay for a project and accidentally entered her card number?
Sydney was still stunned when she received a message from Cayden.
[CaydenLowe: I took on some jobs recently and earned a lot of money. I can't use all this money, so you use it first in case the company is short of cash.]
[SydneyRaines: You haven’t been to Bourbon that long, right? What kind of job did you take that paid so much?]
Cayden accompanied her to Skylight, subdued those difficult shareholders using a gentle tone, and the mall manager even treated Cayden respectfully when they went to the mall. All these scenes flashed in Sydney’s head.
She remembered what Luke said before and also began to be suspicious.
Was he just a model?
Before Cayden could reply, Sydney sent another message: [Executives from two branches of Flint Corporation ran away with 75 million dollars. Cay, is this related to you?]
After a few seconds, Cayden replied: [Brandon Madden's money was swept away? Poor thing.]
[CaydenLowe: Sis, I'm just a model and don't know about business. I don't know the executives of Flint Corporation either, so how could I have told them to run with millions of dollars of Brandon’s money?]
Layden soon sent another screenshot of the contract.
[CaydenLowe: This is the contract I signed with the Collins family. Look at the amount. Doesn't it match the amount I transferred?]
Sydney read the contract carefully and sighed in relief. She felt like she had gone too far.
[SydneyRaines: I'm sorry, Cay. You were so worried about Skylight and me, but I suspected that you had done something illegal. That was wrong of me.]
