Sydney was standing in front of the printer, printing the transfer letter and the land deed from earlier, so she took her time to reply. "Alright. Send out the processed documents on the desk and let me know when Luke comes in the afternoon.”
"Understood." Sophie walked over and carried away the pile of documents on the table.
Once Sydney had photocopied everything, she returned to her seat and sat down. She sorted out the copies and bound them before taking the originals to the safe for storage.
Suddenly, she thought of something, and a glint flashed in her eyes. She picked up her phone, took a picture of the original deed, posted it online, and wrote: [Thank you President Flint for the valuable land!
After that, she separately tagged Julien and Trison Corporation. Brandon would definitely jump in anger when he saw the post.
After all, a father was to blame for his child’s faults. As a father, Brandon should also take some responsibility for what Lyra did.
Sydney smiled at that thought. Fame and fortune were irrelevant.
Just then, her cell phone suddenly rang.
Sydney looked down and saw that it was from Cayden. She answered it and brought it to her ear without hesitation. "Cay."
"Sydney." Cayden’s deep, magnetic, and pleasant voice sounded in her ears.
Sydney felt her ears tingle and could not help but shrink her neck. "Why are you calling me? Are you done with work?”
"No. I just finished shooting for a magazine. It's break time now, so I went on social media because I was bored and just so happened to see your post. What did you mean by that post? Did Julien give you a piece of land?" Cayden asked.
"Yeah.” Sydney leaned back against the chair.
Cayden frowned. "Why did he give it to you? Syd, are you two..."
"Don't be ridiculous." Sydney knew he had the wrong idea as soon as she heard his tone. Hence, she explained in exasperation, "He gave it to me to compensate for what Lyra did to me."
"Compensate?" Cayden was stunned for a moment before his face turned morosely cold. "Sydney, did Lyra do something to you?"
Sydney rubbed her brows and let out a long sigh." Yeah. I didn’t expect her to be so bold either."
She then gave a brief account of what happened at the resort.
At that, Cayden clenched his hand that was holding the phone, and a murderous intent emerged in his eyes. "How are you feeling now?”
Although his expression was ice-cold, his voice was still full of concern and worry.
As such, Sydney did not notice anything off with him. Instead, she replied warmly, "I'm fine. I just had a slight concussion. I’ll be fine after a few days."
"That's good." The corners of Layden's mouth tugged downward. "Well, I need to get back to work now. I’ll talk to you later."
"Sure. All the best at work. Bye." Sydney nodded.
"Bye!" Cayden put the phone down and sent a brief message indifferently: [I need you to do something for me...]
The person on the other end quickly replied: [Roger!]
Layden's thumb brushed gently at Sydney's smiling face on his phone wallpaper. The warmth on his face was no longer present and was replaced with hostility instead.
He once lived in the darkness until a light suddenly appeared in his life.
He would make whoever dared to hurt his light pay the price!
In Trison Corporation, Brandon was in a meeting explaining the development of the first villa neighborhood to the senior shareholders when his assistant suddenly pushed the meeting room door open and came in. "President Madden, bad news!"
"What is it?" Seeing his assistant's somber expression, Brandon had no choice but to pause the meeting.
The assistant could not announce the matter in public, so he came up to Brandon's ear and whispered.
Brandon's face instantly changed. "Are you serious?"
