Julien's words suggested that he did know who Sydney’s biological parents were.
Hunter knew Julien was dissatisfied with his involvement in Sydney's matter, but he was not afraid of Julien. He spread out his hands with a smile and said, "Julien, you said this a little too late, didn't you? If you had said 'it has nothing to do with you' to me before I attended the court trial with Sydney, then I would have immediately left and would never ask about this. But you can't say 'this' to me now. In court, Madeline did not directly say it, but finished half of it, which caused Sydney to suspect all the same."
"What did you say?" Julien straightened his back and asked with an unhappier face, "Leaf suspected it?"
"Yes!" Hunter nodded, "Madeline spoke of her biological parents, but the bailiff covered her mouth at that moment. It happened so coincidentally that anyone would suspect the bailiff was trying to stop her from saying it, right? As a smart lady, of course, Sydney would think of it at once. If it had not been for my quick realization that you were manipulating the bailiff to stop Madeline, and my explanation, which removed her suspicions, Sydney would be going to meet Madeline and ask her about everything now. Do you believe it?"
Julien clenched his fists more tightly. He did not say anything, but he was furious with those of the court who had failed to carry out his plan.
"So you have to thank me, Julien." Hunter turned his chair with a carefree mind. "Can you now say it has nothing to do with me? I helped you hide it from Sydney, which got me involved, so you have to tell me who her parents really are. Then I can keep helping you hide it from her. Otherwise, what if I, who know nothing, help her find her biological parents by chance?"
Julien didn't know how to respond.
After all, what Hunter said was somewhat reasonable.
Hunter and Sydney joined hands to deal with the Madden family. Then, Hunter, who had been looking into the family, would find out more clues about Clarice Madden.
In the end, he would find that these clues matched Sydney’s conditions, and he would tell her in inadvertent ways.
Wouldn't Sydney begin to suspect her own identity when the time came?
That was absolutely impossible.
There were so many coincidences that no one would believe they were sheer coincidences.
And Sydney still had some suspicions.
Julien lowered his eyes, remembering that he had asked Sydney on the phone if she had heard Madeline speak of anything unusual in court.
Of course, the "anything unusual" referred to the thing about her real parents Madeline might have told her.
But Sydney said nothing was unusual, and he believed it.
Only when he now heard Hunter's words did he realize that Sydney had lied to him.
Madeline had told her about her parents, which was definitely an unusual subject for her.
But Sydney did not mention it to him.
Apparently, she suspected him.
Although Hunter had removed most of her suspicions in the courthouse, Sydney still had a few suspicions. Otherwise, why didn't she mention it?
Julien looked so grave, a little worried.
He realized that he was gradually losing control over the matter of Sydney's real parents.
Since the seed of suspicion had been sown in Sydney's heart, it would germinate sooner or later.
That meant Sydney would know who her biological parents were sooner or later. Possibly, she would learn it soon.
Julien was now very upset. He even had a strong will to kill, to kill those who might let Sydney know the truth, especially Madeline.
But he could not do it. If he killed Madeline now, he would give Sydney more suspicions.
More importantly, Sydney also wanted Madeline to bear a child for the Raines family.
So he had to think further about a few things.
