Chapter 48 He’s a Great Candidate for Your Second Husband
Sydney was pretending to be asleep to avoid chatting with Hunter.
Seeing that they were almost at Port City Middle School, she pulled out her phone to ask where
Jayden was only to see a push notification from a business news app.
It turned out that two executives at Flint Corporation''s South Lake branch and Loughtown branch
ran away with money amounting to more than 75 million dors, causing Brandon Madden to faint
from anger.
The picture below was of a fainted Brandon being sent to the hospital.
Brandon’s money was taken away?
Great!
Sydney simply wanted to apud at the news. She even wanted to thank the two executives who
took Brandon''s money and ran away.
Since she knew that the Raines family’s bankruptcy was rted to Brandon, she had been trying to
collect evidence and clear her father’s name. However, she could not find any clues.
She was naturally overjoyed to see Brandon being carried into the hospital!
When the car arrived at the entrance of the school, Hunter parked the car and unfastened his
seatbelt while asking Sydney, "What are you going to do here? I remember that your family doesn''t
have rtives to deal with after they went bankrupt."
Sydney nced at him. "Do you care about me so much that you did a background check on me?"
"We’re working together. It''s only natural for me to check your background for my own benefit."
Hunter jutted his lower lip out and chuckled. "Why? Did you think I took a fancy on you, Ms.
Raines?"
It H
"It’s okay for you to think so." He rubbed his chin and said, "A divorcee as well as my good brother''s
woman. I''d like to have a try and see how different you are from other women."
"..." Sydney felt thatpared to Hunter, Luke was simply an angel.
She ignored Hunter and went to the school gate to tell the security guard Jayden''s name. She wrote
''parent'' under the visitor column.
At that moment, her phone vibrated with a text message. It was a notification that there was a
transaction on her bank card.
Sydney counted the number of zeros and was shocked.
15 million?
Did somepany try to pay for a project and identally entered her card number?
Sydney was still stunned when she received a message from Cayden.
[CaydenLowe: I took on some jobs recently and earned a lot of money. I can''t use all this money, so
you use it first in case thepany is short of cash.]
[SydneyRaines: You haven’t been to Bourbon that long, right? What kind of job did you take that
paid so much?]
Cayden apanied her to Skylight, subdued those difficult shareholders using a gentle tone, and
the mall manager even treated Cayden respectfully when they went to the mall. All these scenes
shed in Sydney’s head.
She remembered what Luke said before and also began to be suspicious.
Was he just a model?
Before Cayden could reply, Sydney sent another message: [Executives from two branches of Flint
Corporation ran away with 75 million dors. Cay, is this rted to you?]
After a few seconds, Cayden replied: [Brandon Madden''s money was swept away? Poor thing.]
[CaydenLowe: Sis, I''m just a model and don''t know about business. I don''t know the executives of
Flint Corporation either, so how could I have told them to run with millions of dors of Brandon’s
money?]
Layden soon sent another screenshot of the contract.
[CaydenLowe: This is the contract I signed with the Collins family. Look at the amount. Doesn''t it
match the amount I transferred?]
Sydney read the contract carefully and sighed in relief. She felt like she had gone too far.
[SydneyRaines: I''m sorry, Cay. You were so worried about Skylight and me, but I suspected that you
had done something illegal. That was wrong of me.]
[CaydenLowe: Don''t worry about it. I won’t be able toe back to Port City for the New Year''s, so
remember to take care of yourself.]
[SydneyRaines: I will. Take care of yourself abroad too.]
"That male model just gave you 15 million. He seems to care about you a lot.” Hunter''s voice
suddenly sounded in Sydney''s ears. "He''s young but very considerate to you. He''s a great
candidate for your second husband."
"He’s like my brother." Sydney exited the chat room and red at him for reading over her shoulder.
"This is the money he spent to buy shares in Skylight."
She could not take Layden''s money for nothing. She would transfer him some of Skylight''s shares
when the time came.
"He''s quite clever. A person in a favorable position gains special advantages. He knows that
principle well." Hunter tsked. "Ms. Raines, how do you sell the shares in your hands? Why don''t I
buy some too?"
Sydney ignored him and asked the security guard where the basketball court was before turning to
leave.
In the basketball hall, the national team''s basketball coach had signed up several students and
chatted with their parents since 10 am.
Only Jayden''s parents did note.
The coach looked at the time and walked toward Jayden. "Jayden, I''ve already given you another
half an hour. Why aren''t your parents here yet?"
Jayden only looked outside the basketball court and did not say anything.
He called Sydney from morning, but she kept hanging up. Since she still was not here, it seemed
like she would note to help him.
"You''re a good seedling and have potential. I have high hopes for you, but I also want to talk to your
parents." The coach patted the teenager’s shoulder with a regretful look. "If your family doesn’t
approve of you ying basketball, then there’s nothing I can do."
Jayden clenched his fists tightly and only whispered after a long while, "Can you wait a little longer?
I''ll call again..."
"Jayden, the coach already gave you an extra hour, but no one in your family ising. It''s clear
that they don''t support you ying basketball," a boy said, "Stop wasting the coach''s time and let
them go back and rest!"
The several other boys standing around him had all signed contracts for the tryout and had smug
smiles on their faces.
Jayden red at him.
"Why are you ring at me? Did I strike a nerve?” The boy had a yful look as he mocked
Jayden. "Geez, what''s the point of being the young master of the Flint family? You''re still at the
mercy of your family and can’t even y basketball."
Then, he shook his head. "You poor, poor boy."
The boys beside him muffled theirughter.
"Say that again!" Jayden yelled at the boy. He rushed up in anger and tried to pick a fight with him.
"Hey, what are you doing? Are you trying to hit my son?" The boy’s mother stopped in front of him,
crossed her arms, and red at Jayden. "You little brat, don''t think I’m afraid of you just because
you''re from the Flint family. Don’t you dare touch my son!"
The coach rushed up to stop Jayden and tried to soothe the situation. "Alright, alright. Since you’ve
signed the contract, you all can leave with your parents...”
"I think that you''re the pitiful one." A clear and cold female voice interjected.
The students and parents in the hall looked toward the entrance of the hall and saw a tall woman in
a ck coate in. She had a gentle and quiet temperament, and the young man behind her was
also handsome and stylish.
Jayden''s eyes lit up when he saw Sydney arrive.
However, he became nervous when he saw Hunter behind her.
Damn it, did that woman tell his brother?
Was Hunter here to catch him?
The boy’s mother frowned and red at Sydney. "Who did you say was pitiful?”
"You, of course, and your son." Sydney stood in front of the woman and curled her red lips. "It’s
useful that my little brother is the young master of the Flint family. He has billions of assets to
squander and doesn''t have to do anything on his own."
Sydney raised her chin and asked the boy, "Hey, have you ever sat in a helicopter before?"
N?velDrama.Org owns ? this.
The boy subconsciously shook his head. "No..."
"That''s pitiful. You haven''t even sat in a helicopter before." Sydney shook her head. "Well, that
makes sense since your parents are working for other people. They probably don''t earn much, so
you naturally won''t know what it means to enjoy life. You’ll also have to continue working for others
in the future."
