Chapter 296 Go to the Police Station
As soon as he left, his position would be reced. If that happened, he would not be able to return
to Skylight, nor would he be able to join otherpanies. He would be finished.
Besides, he had no intention to leave in the first ce.
Julien looked at Sydney. "What do you think?”
Although Sydney did not like Stephen, she was even more reluctant to have Julien send his people
over. She nodded and said, "Since President Dayton said that he''s joking, let''s forget about it." "All
right." Julien pursed his lips, somewhat disappointed.
He wanted her to agree to let Stephen and the others leave Skylight.
That way, he could send someone over here and have an excuse toe here and find her in the
future.
Stephen was greatly relieved when he heard Sydney''s words.
Fortunately, she was smart enough not to say something she should not say.
Otherwise, he would be finished.
"President Dayton, are you still going to oppose my decision to delist thepany? " Sydney
looked at Stephen expressionlessly.
Stephen was reluctant, but when he saw Julien beside her, he had no choice but to change his
words. "Of course, not. You can do whatever you want to do." "In that case, I''ll spread the word. Is
there anything else you need, President Dayton?" She chased him away.
Stephen''s lips twitched. "No. You carry on, Sydney. I won''t bother you anymore.
Goodbye."
The moment he turned around, the forced smile on his lips disappeared and became distorted.
He thought that this time, he could make Sydney hand over her half of the management right by
threatening to leave Skylight.
Unexpectedly, Julien appeared halfway.
It seemed like as long as the cooperation between Sydney and Julien existed, Julien would back
her up. In that case, it would be even more difficult for him to deal with this damned girl.
He had to think of a way to make the cooperation between the two fall through.
After Stephen left, the office regained its silence.
Sydney tucked a lock of hair behind her ear and thanked Julien.
Julien looked at her. "You''ve already thanked me several times today."
"I know, but this ismon courtesy. It''s something I should do." Sydney sat in her chair.
Even if Julien did note forward to help her this time, she could still deal with Stephen.
She already decided that if Stephen did not agree to delist thepany, she wouldpletely fall
out with him. He could leave thepany if he wanted to.
At most, she would drastically reduce Skylight''s size so that it became a small or medium-sized
enterprise.
That way, at least Skylight would still be around. It could develop into a corporation again in the
future.
"You don''t have to thank me." Julien walked across to her desk and also sat down. "I know the
conflict between Stephen and you. You could''ve used this opportunity to drive him out of Skylight."
Sydney''s eyes dimmed. "I know, but it''s not necessary."
"Is it because you think it''s unnecessary, or because you don''t want me to send someone over?"
Julien raised his eyes to look at her.
Sydney''s lips moved, but she looked away and said nothing.
Julien saw her like this and knew that his guess was right.
She just did not want him to send someone over.
He secretly sighed in his heart and stopped speaking as well.
At that moment, Sydney reached out and picked up thendline on the table to call Sophie.
"Prepare the documents for the delisting and send them directly to the relevant departments."
"But President Dayton doesn''t agree," Sophiie replied.
Sydney rubbed her temples. "He agreed."
"Really?" "Really.” Sydney nodded.
Sophieughed. "That''s great. I''ll get right to it." "Go ahead." Sydney hummed and put down the
receiver.
"I''ll also contact the relevant departments. When your secretary arrives, she can go through the
delisting procedures directly," Julien took out his phone and dialed a number as he spoke.
The corners of Sydney''s mouth squeezed into a smile. "Sure."
She had to admit that Julien helped her a lot today.
He stood up and went to the balcony to answer the phone.
Two minutester, he came back with a gloomy face.
When Sydney saw this scene, her heart thumped. "What''s wrong? Did the authorities not agree?"
"That''s not it. You have many reporters downstairs again. There are almost fifty." Julien put away his
phone.
He only brought one squadron of a dozen bodyguards.
Even if they were powerful, they could not stop so many reporters.
Thus, when he came in, he told the securitypany to send two more squadrons over. They
would arrive in around ten minutes.
When Sydney heard that it was the reporters again, she had a headache. "They must be attracted
by Lyra''s live broadcast. When she uploaded that post earlier, there were already around thirty
reporters who came here, as well as some more agitatedizens. I told Sophie to call the police
and take theizens away, but they couldn''t do anything to the reporters since they have the right
to interview.
As long as it was not a restricted area, the police had no way to take the reporters away.
This was something that many people were annoyed with.
Julien lifted his chin slightly. "No wonder."
Zach mentioned that there wereizens who sent over wreaths and razors, but he did not see any
when he came over earlier.
It was because they were taken away by the police.
"No wonder what?" Sydney did not know what Julien meant and asked.
Julien smiled faintly at her. "It''s nothing."
Since he did not want to say, Sydney shrugged and stopped asking. She moved the mouse to
check thetest news online.
Lyra''s live broadcast had been over for a while, and the Inte was very much in full swing now.
The hype was even higher than when it was suppressed before.
A few fans even left messages on her social media tform thanking her for saving their idol.
Of course, the majority were curses and scoldings.
Sydney knew that Lyra did this because she wanted to ruin Sydney and let her die a social death.
Since Lyra felt that Sydney had no evidence to prove her innocence, she could only shoulder the
me.
However, whether or not Lyra could seed would have to wait until Finn came out.
Thus, the only thing Sydney could do now was wait.
At that thought, she looked at the time in the lower right corner of the screen. 12:30 PM.
It would be evening by the time Finn came out.
As long as she waited until the evening, she would be able to see hope.
Suddenly, her phone rang.Published by N?v''elD/rama.Org.
Sydney looked at it and her face darkened.
Julien also saw this and narrowed his eyes. "Who is it?"
"The police station." Sydney pursed her lips. "Someone online said that they called the police. This
is probably it."
Then, she swiped her thumb over the green icon and answered the call.
"Hello, Ms. Raines. We''re Port City Public Security. Someone on the Inte reported you for luring
a person and causing her to be defiled. Pleasee to the police station now to cooperate with the
investigation," the person on the phone said.
Sydney nced at Julien, the words, ''See? I guessed it!'' written all over her face.
"Sure. I''lle over right now," she answered indifferently.
After the call ended, she put down the phone and stood up.
Julien also got up. "Are you going to the station?"
"Yes. It’ll be good for me to cooperate with the investigation. They won’t find anything from me, and
I''ll be able to clear my name as well." Sydney picked up her bag.
Julien straightened his cuffs. "I''ll go with you."
Sydney wanted to refuse, but when she saw his firm expression, she knew that he would follow
even if she told him not to.
Sighing, she lifted her foot and walked toward the door. "Whatever."
Julien smiled and walked beside her.
In the elevator, the two squadrons of bodyguards arranged by Julien arrived.
Julien told them to go directly to the parking lot and stop the reporters there.
When the captain of the bodyguards sent a message saying that they stopped the reporters,
Sydney and Julien came out.
As soon as they emerged, the reporters who were stopped by the bodyguards
noticed them.
