And by then, he would leave her behind once again.
So he couldn't let anything happen to her, and he must not be stimulated before he had his heart changed. He wanted to survive and live with her for the rest of his life.
As she heard the worry in Julien's voice, a warm current flowed through Sydney's heart, and she smiled slightly. "I'm sorry for making you anxious."
She raised her hand and patted his back gently to comfort him.
Julien gradually calmed down. "Tell me if you will be away for so long in the future." He cupped her face with one hand, looking at her.
Seeing his serious look, Sydney subconsciously nodded. "OK."
Hearing this, Julien was satisfied and stopped frowning. "Do you have anything else to do?"
"No." Sydney shook her head.
She came here to attend her friend's engagement ceremony and talk about business.
Now both things were done.
"Then let’s go back." Julien raised his wrist and looked at his watch.
It was almost midnight.
Sydney had long wanted to go back, so as she heard him say that, she nodded and
said, "Okay."
The two of them walked toward the elevator and soon arrived at the hotel's parking lot.
Julien took out the car key and pressed it. The luxury Bentley made a sound and flashed.
Julien pulled open the passenger door and gestured for Sydney to get in.
Sydney gathered the jacket, covered her chest with one hand, and bent down to get in the car.
Just as she stepped into the car, she suddenly felt something. She pulled her foot back, straightened up, and turned to look in one direction.
Seeing this, Julien opened his thin lips." What's wrong?"
Sydney did not answer. She pursed her lips, staring somewhere with a cold face.
Julien wondered, 'Why does she look so serious?'
Julien turned his head, followed her gaze, and then saw a man and a woman standing by a car not far away across the road.
Julien recognized the man. He was Manuel.
Julien didn't know the woman standing next to Manuel. From Sydney's expression, he immediately guessed the woman's identity.
She must be Madeline, Sydney's sister.
Madeline followed Manuel to the parking lot, ready to go back to their apartment.
It was a coincidence that Madeline saw Sydney here.
When she saw Sydney, Madeline thought of the humiliation Sydney had inflicted upon her in the restroom. Anger and hatred surged through Madeline.
Madeline then saw the man beside Sydney but could not see his face. He opened the door of the Bentley for Sydney. Madeline got jealous.
Although Sydney rescued Skylight, today's Skylight couldn't earn Sydney so much money to buy such a good car, so this car must belong to the man next to Sydney.
Madeline thought, 'This man is stupid. He is so rich but has picked a divorced woman.
The next second, Madeline saw the man turn around and was stunned by his handsome face. Her mouth was opened wide in surprise.
What a charming man!
She swore that this was the best-looking man she had ever seen.
Such a man should be unreachable, but he was standing next to Sydney.
Madeline thought, 'How could Sydney get him?'
'What does he see in Sydney, a divorced woman? Why does such a rich, handsome, and elegant man like Sydney?'
