Sir, Madam Dispeared Again After Divorce! novel Chapter 739

“Harrow?” Sydney blinked and then looked up at Julien. “I got it. You said just now that your grandparent's family didn't use Burke as their surname. So, your mother comes from the Harrow family, right?”

“Yeah, you’re so clever,” Julien praised her.

Sydney gave a smile. “You’ve given me such a detailed explanation. If I can’t guess it right, I’m really… Well, let’s continue the talk.”

She waved her hand and added, “But there are quite a few big families with the surname Harrow in our country. Which Harrow family does your grandfather belong to?”

“The Harrow family in Jackal City,” Julien replied.

“Jackal City...” Sydney thought for a while. Then her eyes widened. “Is it the Harrow family that has a good relationship with the Sullivan family in Jackal City?”

“Yes.” Julien nodded.

That was also why Julien’s mother had fallen in love with Dallin.

“It turns out that the Harrow family in Jackal City is your grandfather’s family.”

“Well, as the person in charge of the Harrow family is actually surnamed Burke, so people in Jackal City call it the Burke family,” Julien explained.

Sydney nodded. “I got it. Since the Harrow family is in Jackal City while I live in Port City, it’s no wonder that I didn’t know about it. But I heard that the Flint family had issues with the Harrow family. Is it true?”

“It’s true,” Julien admitted squarely, narrowing his eyes.

Sydney looked astonished. “It’s actually true. What has happened? Isn’t the Harrow family your mother’s family? Why do they have issues with your family?”

“Because it’s not my grandfather who is in charge now.” Julien stroked her hair gently, but he looked expressionless.

Sydney could sense that he was in a bad mood.

“My great-grandfather had two sons. The elder son was my grandfather. My grandfather inherited the property of the Harrow family, and the only child of my grandfather was my mother. Originally, I should inherit the property of the Harrow family after my grandfather and my mother died. But when I inherited a part of it, the descendants of my grandfather’s young brother came to grab the remaining part.” Julien’s voice became cold. “At that time, my grandfather had just passed away. In order not to disrupt his funeral, I did not seize back the remaining part and gave it to those people.”

“Are you willing to give it up?” Sydney asked while staring at him.

Julien gave a snort. “Well, I don’t care about it. What they took away will be eliminated as time goes by. The business was only valuable at that time. I guess you must have heard that the Harrow Group has encountered financial problems recently.”

“Yeah.” Sydney adjusted her posture in his arms. “I often read financial news. Just last week, I read the analysis of the Harrow Group in the news. It pointed out that their business was gradually declining. If they didn’t update their business, going bankrupt was inevitable. At that time, I still took pity on the Harrow family, as their century-old business was on the verge of bankruptcy. I was thinking that the Harrow family did not know how to keep pace with the times, as they managed their business in an out-of-date way. Since they are robbers, I don’t take pity on them at all.”

Sydney could sense that the current Harrow family disgusted Julien, so she was not afraid that these words would anger him.

As expected, when Julien heard her words, not only did he not become unhappy, but he even laughed.

“You’re right. There is no need to take pity on the current Harrow family. They thought they had grabbed the treasure, but it was something I didn’t want at all. In fact, even if they hadn’t grabbed it, I would have given half of the business to them. I even planned to develop the Harrow Group with them, because before my grandfather passed away, he had said that he should have treated his brother better. So, I initially considered giving them half of the property of the Harrow family. But...” Julien narrowed his eyes.

Sydney looked at him, feeling distressed. “But they disappointed you.”

Julien rubbed his eyebrows. “Yeah, I was so disappointed. Actually, the Harrow Group began to deteriorate many years ago. Four years ago, some people from the Harrow family met me and hoped that I could help them. But I refused. I’m such a person. I’ll be responsible for the after-sales of the thing I give to others. But if they steal it from me, it has nothing to do with me anymore. So, I did not help the Harrow family. Since then, the Harrow family has defamed my family. This is the reason for the incompatibility of our two families.”

“It turns out to be so.” Sydney twitched her mouth. “I got it. It doesn’t matter that they are incompatible with your family. Anyway, they’re not the descendants of your grandfather.”

“Yeah. So, I’ve never cared about the Harrow family.” Julien chuckled. “But I have a good relationship with a person from the Harrow family.”

Sydney stretched in his arms. “Who?”

“Well, the younger brother of the person in charge of the Harrow family. He is my uncle. He knew clearly that he was not qualified to inherit the Harrow family, so he didn’t grab the property of the Harrow family with others back then. He even protected my mother when he was a child. So, I only continue the relationship with him and his wife and daughter.” Julien tidied up her clothes that had become messy due to her stretch.
