'She asked me to pick her up.'
Julien's eyes dilated slightly, then he straightened his back, and the smile on his face became wider.
'This is the first time she has asked me to do something for her.'
It means that she is more and more dependent on me, less and less unfamiliar to me, and is gradually accepting that I am her boyfriend.'
"OK, I’ll come over this afternoon." Julien did not type but chose to send a voice message.
He felt that the text could not show the joy and excitement in his heart at the moment. At the other end of the phone, Sydney clicked the message. When she heard his deep and charming voice, the tips of her ears could not help but turn red.
'Does he deliberately lower his voice?'
Sydney touched the tips of her ears and played the voice again.
His charming voice sounded again, which made her ears redder.
This time she recognized he was happy.
'He is so happy just because I asked him to pick me up this afternoon?'
Sydney pressed her lips, but there was a smile in her eyes. Then she typed with both hands, "All right, call me or send me a message after you come in the afternoon. I'm going to a meeting now.'
After sending the message, she put away her phone, took a deep breath, and calmed down the restless heart stirred by his voice. Then she picked up her laptop again and walked out of the office.
"Ms. Raines."
Sean stood outside Sydney's office, holding up one hand. Apparently, she was about to knock on the door, and the door opened before she knocked.
Seeing Sydney coming out, she put down her hand and said, "I was just about to call you."
"Sorry for the delay." Sydney smiled apologetically and then asked, "Are they all in the conference room?"
"They are all in the conference room, so they asked me to call you." "OK, I see. Let's go." Sydney closed the door and walked towards the elevator.
Sean followed her closely.
As soon as they entered the conference room, everyone immediately all looked at Sydney.
There were excitement and joy in some people's eyes, and they were on her side.
There were also complexity and apprehension in some people's eyes, and they were on Stephen’s side.
Sydney knew they looked at her in this way because of the news exposed this morning.
The people on her side were happy that she and Julien got back together, which meant that Skylight Corporation had a good relationship with Flint Corporation and that there would be no "accidents" in the future. Naturally, their interests could be guaranteed.
On the contrary, the people on Stephen's side were so perturbed because they knew that Sydney had always been dissatisfied with them. They had not been completely cleared out of Skylight Corporation because there was no one to take their place at present, so she had to tolerate them supporting Stephen in front of her and finding fault with her.
However, now that she might be with Julien again, she could completely ignore them.
After all, the Flint Corporation had a lot of talents, and they could be replaced if Julien sent some people over at will, so now they were perturbed and nervous.
Even Stephen could not be arrogant at the moment. He looked at Sydney with a complex gaze, which was completely different from before.
In Skylight Corporation, he could use his seniority to suppress Sydney a little bit, but now he dared not because of Julien.
In fact, when Sydney took the position of chairperson and took all the management rights from his hands, he could no longer fight her and dared not fight her openly. He just dared plan to find an opportunity to let her lose the position of chairperson.
Unexpectedly, she actually got back together with Julien before he found the opportunity.
Now he couldn't do anything because he was afraid Julien would kill him before he took action.
He knew Julien was a man who protected his woman for no reason!
"I'm late. Sorry to keep everyone waiting." Sydney glanced at all the people in the conference room, guessed what they were thinking, and smiled before pulling out her chair and sitting down.
Everyone shook their heads and waved hands, "You didn't come late, Ms. Raines. On the contrary, we came early."
