Chapter 288 A Lot of Reporters Came


    "What?” Sydney was stunned.


    What did she do wrong?


    The olddyughed. "It’s normal for couples to fight, but don''t take it too seriously. I think this guy


    is really sincere with his apology! He even bought you breakfast, so just forgive him. Nowadays, not


    a lot of guys will try to make their girlfriends happy. You have to value him or you might regret it for


    the rest of your life."


    "No, I..."


    The elevator reached with a ding.


    The olddy patted Sydney’s shoulder and interrupted her. "Girl, think about what I said just now.”


    After saying that, she looked toward Julien. "Boy, don’t make your girlfriend angry next time. Fate


    brought you both together, so you must value her."

    "I''ll remember your words, thank you.” Julien nodded in gratitude.


    He did not value Sydney in the past, but he would put her first in the future.


    When the olddy heard that, she took the old man''s arm and walked out of the elevator happily.


    They were still a few floors away from Sydney''s car and stayed in the elevator.


    She gripped her hair and said in irritation, “ What just happened? Julien Flint, why are you so


    cheeky? The olddy mistook us as a couple, and you admit it?"


    Julien pressed the closed button of the elevator. "I just didn''t want them to feel awkward.”


    "What?" Sydney red at him. "You have your ulterior motives!”


    Julien raised his eyebrow and acquiesced.


    Sydney rubbed her eyebrows and calmed down. "I''ll let you off this time, but Julien Flint, if you do


    this again, I will not let you off so easily!"


    She gave him a cold nce.


    Julien felt a sharp pain in his heart and lowered his eyes to cover the sadness within. "Alright.


    Breakfast..."


    "No!" Sydney said with indifference and walked out of the elevator. She headed to her car without


    looking at Julien again.


    Julien followed her with breakfast.


    Sydney heard footsteps behind her, but she did not bother. She took out her car keys from her bag,


    opened the car door, and left.


    Julien remained where he was as he looked at her driving away. He pursed his lips.


    Not far away from them, Zach saw the entire scene and shook his head with a sigh.


    President Flint still had a long way to go.


    Skylight Corporation.


    Sydney was in the middle of looking through some documents when Sophie knocked on the door


    and came in." President Raines, someone from Morgan Enterprise came.”


    "Morgan Enterprise?" Sydney raised her eyebrow.


    Sophie nodded. “Yes. The chairman of Morgan Enterprise came."


    "It must be because of Kate Morgan." Sydney mockingly smiled.


    "Yes. They want to apologize to you for what Kate Morgan did," Sophie replied.


    Sydney sneered. "They are nning to apologize with just words. This apology isn''t sincere, just


    like thest time."


    Thest time, Mrs. Morgan stopped Sydney at the entrance of the court and apologized to her. She


    also requested for Sydney to let Kate go. However, she had no sense of remorse at all.


    It was not at all a sincere apology.


    It was the same for Chairman Morgan.


    Sydney sighed. Chairman Morgan and his wife were indeed a couple, and even their way of


    apology was the same. Perhaps Mrs. Morgan knew that Sydney would not


    forgive Kate, so she asked Chairman Morgan toe instead.


    However, Sydney would not let Kate off just because Chairman Morgan came.


    They were all just having wishful thoughts. Not only did she not bother about Brandon Madden but


    she also would not bother about the Morgan family, who was way smaller than Skylight Corporation.


    "President Raines, do you want to meet him?" Sophie asked Sydney.


    Sydney lowered her head and continued looking through her documents. Her voice was cold as she


    said, "No. Ask them to leave."


    "Alright." Sophie nodded and left.


    After some time, Sydney finally finished her work and stood in front of the window to get a breather.


    She also wanted to stretch out her neck and wrists.


    Suddenly, she noticed a few MPVs stopping in front of Skylight Corporation''s building.


    The doors opened and a bunch of reporters with cameras and microphones came rushing out like a


    swarm of bees. They were all heading into the building.


    They seemed as though they had received groundbreaking news.


    Sydney frowned, wondering what they heard when they came rushing to Skylight Corporation.


    A surge of uneasiness washed over her.


    Sydney sucked in a deep breath and tried to suppress the anxiety. She returned to her desk and


    called for Sophie.


    President Raines, do you have any


    orders?” Sophie said respectfully into the phone.


    Sydney pursed her lips. "I saw arge group of reporters at our building entrance. They are now in


    the lobby. Can you find out


    Before she could finish her sentence, her phone rang.


    Sydney saw that it was Luke and said into the phone to Sophie, "Give me a second.”


    “Sure." Sophie nodded.


    Sydney put down the phone on her desk and picked up her own phone. She answered and said,


    "Hello? Luke?"


    "Darling, are there a lot of reporters at your side?" Luke''s anxious voice came through.


    Sydney''s uneasiness resurfaced once again.


    She tightened her grip on the phone and nodded. "Yes. I think there were at least twenty of them.


    Luke, what happened? Do you know something?"


    Luke said angrily, “Lyra Madden released a statement on her social media half an hour ago, saying


    that you nned her incident. This triggered the reporters and they came running to you."


    "What?” Sydney''s expression changed. “ Lyra said that?"


    “Yes. She''s really infuriating! I regretted not killing her back then. F*ck! I''ve never seen such a


    shameless woman!" Luke scolded.


    After two seconds, he took a deep breath and tried to calm down. "Darling, don''t leave the office. I


    don’t think the reporters will let you go that easily."


    "I know." Sydney nodded with a solemn expression.


    Luke replied, "That''s good, then. I can’t let you be alone in Skylight. I''lle over in a bit."


    After saying that, he wanted to hang up.


    Sydney stopped him. "Don''t. Don''te. You’re still my boyfriend in everyone''s eyes. If youe,


    the reporters will question you for sure. Some of them might have even gone to your side."


    "President Chase!" Just as Sydney said that, someone else from Luke’s side called for him.


    Luke said something to the person and returned to the phone call after ten seconds or so. “Darling,


    you''re right. A lot of reporters came to my side too." "I''m sorry, Luke. I dragged you into this mess,”


    Sydney said apologetically.


    Luke smiled. "Don’t worry, this isn’t your fault. I need to sort them out.”


    "Go ahead." Sydney nodded.


    After the call ended, Sydney picked up Sophie''s call once more. "Sophie, go to the lobby and take a


    look. Bring a few security with you and stop the reporters. Make sure to stop them from heading


    upstairs."


    Sydney put down the phone and rubbed her eyebrows in irritation.


    As Luke said, Lyra was really shameless. She created trouble for her the moment she woke up.
