While hearing the discussion of the audience and looking at the man staring at the captain opposite with a dark face, Sydney felt like she had a headache and massaged her forehead.
Facing Julien's hostility, the captain was so embarrassed.
But those few young police officers behind him laughed like crazy.
"Ahem ahem!" the captain cleared his throat. Then, as he scratched his head, he looked at Julien and said with embarrassment, "Mr. Flint, could you let me go?"
His hand, which was now being tightly held by the young chairman, felt so much pain.
If he didn't know that the man was like this only because of jealousy, he would think the man was offending the police.
"Well, Julien, let go of the captain. What are you doing?" Sydney tugged the man's sleeve gently, signaling him to let go.
Reminded by her, the man pursed his thin lips before letting go of the captain's hand.
Looking at his red hand, the captain smiled wryly.
The young men were so jealous!
He came here to work, but was thought to be a rival. How ridiculous!
The captain shook his head helplessly and put down his hand.
Next to him, Sydney glared at the man. Knowing that the man was obsessive about cleanliness, she took a handkerchief out of her pocket and passed it over.
"Here you are."
Looking at the handkerchief, Julien put a smile on his thin lips. All his coldness and hostility toward the captain gone, he said amiably, "Sure enough, only you know me."
He took the handkerchief and cleaned the hand he had used to shake hands with the captain.
Sydney said half angrily and half laughingly, "I just shook hands with the captain, and it was I who proposed it. How come you are jealous about such a small matter?"
"I don't allow it. He's a man." After cleaning his hand, Julien, who was unwilling to throw the handkerchief away, put it into his pocket.
Sydney rolled her eyes at him and said, "This is your sophistry. I don't feel like talking to you."
After that, she turned her head and said to the captain apologetically, "Sorry to have embarrassed you."
"Never mind." The captain waved his hand and replied, showing he didn't mind it. But he felt so speechless about it, in fact.
After all, this was the first time he had been in such a situation.
If not for the man's noble status, he wouldn't have forgiven him so easily.
He was not one that anyone could afford to offend.
"Well, Ms. Raines, it's late. Then we'll take the person away." Not thinking further, the captain adjusted his police cap and said to Sydney seriously.
Sydney nodded and pointed to Madeline being held by two security guards in the middle of the meeting table, saying, "Okay, sorry to have troubled you people. The person is over there. Go take her. If you need to ask anything in the following days, we'll cooperate."
"We'll." The captain saluted her, then waved his hand, signaling the young officers behind him to take Madeline from the guards.
Looking at the police officers walking toward her, Madeline shook her head with great fear, as if the people she saw were not humans, but demons wanting to kill her.
"Don't, don't come closer, don't come over. Go, go away!" Madeline shook her head and shouted, trying to drive the police officers away.
But the police officers wouldn't be driven away by her. Soon they took her from the security guards.
The moment the police officers touched her, she panicked to the bone, ashen and tearful.
"Sister, sister, please save me, save me." She suddenly looked at Sydney with a pleading expression and shouted with snot and tears, "Sister, ask them to go! Don't let them take me, okay? I was wrong. I truly admit I was wrong. I won't dare in the future. I really won't dare. Waaa…"
She wept heartily, showing that she truly knew she had been wrong. If someone with a soft heart saw this, they would think she was a poor girl at the moment.
Even many viewers of the live stream begged for mercy for Madeline.
Since she could not see it, Sydney would naturally not be affected.
But even if she saw it, she wouldn't be affected.
Others might not know Madeline, but she knew.
