Anyway, this chat could not go on.
No matter who the person who called her was, his younger brother or a child, if it was a man, he was unhappy.
Such possessiveness was both annoying and amusing.
Not knowing whether to laugh or cry, Sydney massaged her forehead and said, "Okay, fine, I will avoid answering his calls in the future, okay?"
Anyway, Jayden would be back soon. Presumably, he would not call her many times in the future.
They would talk face to face instead.
Of course, she would not say it.
Hearing Sydney's promise, Julien then put a smile on his thin lips happily.
Sydney put down her soup spoon and said, "By the way, Jayden has in fact grown a lot. He also apologized to me just now."
"He hasn't done anything bad to you. Why did he have to apologize?" Julien instantly frowned and asked seriously, "Did he say something offensive to you on the phone?"
Sydney froze, not knowing how he had reached such a conclusion, which amused her and warmed her heart.
"No." Sydney shook her head. "He apologized to me for what he did in the past."
These words made Julien's "stress reaction" gradually wear off. He raised his chin a bit and answered, “Then he should apologize. My mother… Velma should also apologize, but I'm sorry. I can't force her to apologize to you. After all, she raised me up. But I'll apologize for her."
"No need." Sydney, who didn't care about it, waved her hand. "You and she are different people. You don't have to do it for her. And for your sake, I'm not going to ask her to apologize to me because I don't care about it. Even if she apologizes, she must be insincere. So she doesn't have to do anything. But I have a condition: Don't let me live with her under the same roof. Let us live our lives separately. Do not let us interfere with each other's lives."
Julien chuckled, "Of course. The apartment in the Cloud Building will be our place in the future. I told you, didn't I? Although it is smaller and less luxurious than Flint Mansion, it is good enough to be our little nest. What do you think?"
That place was smaller but was more like a home.
If it was too large, the loving couple would sometimes feel it was desolate to live there.
"I'll always be fine as long as Velma and I live in different places," Sydney said, the tips of her ears slightly red.
Julien stroked her hair. "That's good. Well, keep eating. The meal is getting cold."
Sydney answered yes but then thought of something. Looking at him, she asked with concern, "Have you had dinner?"
Julien nodded and said, "Yes, I have. I asked Zach to bring it to me. I wanted to ask you to eat with me, but after thinking about it, I dropped the idea. I reserved a share for you."
"Why did you drop the idea after thinking about it?" Sydney asked while eating.
Julien's eyes glistened with secret light. He leaned back, supported his head, and looked at her with a burning desire as if to swallow her up. Then he said in a hoarse but alluring voice, "Because I wanted you to sleep. When you've had enough sleep, you won't fall asleep at night. When you can't fall asleep, you'll have the energy to make love with me at night."
"Thud!"
The spoon in Sydney's hand fell to the coffee table, making a thud. She was dumbfounded.
The words "when you can't fall asleep, you'll have the energy to make love with me at night" repeated themselves in her head and wouldn't disappear.
She suddenly remembered the promise of making love with him tonight she had made in his office in the daytime.
And she also remembered what he had just said…
She had a rush of blood to her head. Her face was so red that it seemed to be shedding blood. She glared at the man, many different expressions flashing through her eyes. Now she was so ashamed and annoyed.
She never expected that he had let her sleep, instead of waking her up, because of this.
This man was so… shameless!
