Chapter 713 Dere His Affection for Sydney to the Whole World


    The female reporter had an embarrassed smile. At once, she was choked back.


    That was it! Because Julien loved Sydney, he wouldn''t break up with her. The reason was simple


    yet convincing.


    Before the reporters couldment on Julien''s answer, some of the female audience in the live-


    stream room were moved to tears.


    Julien dered to the world that he loved Sydney, and he swore that he would never break up with


    her.


    Few men have the courage to do that.


    And, at the same time, he made a promise to the world.


    Now everyone knew that the chairman of Flint Corporation was in love with the chairman of Skylight


    Corporation, and he promised never to break up with her.


    The whole world would witness his behavior.


    If one day he stopped loving Sydney, or if he wanted to break up with her, what he had done today


    would be a joke. People would surely despise him.


    He was the chairman of Flint Corporation. He must have thought of these consequences.


    Although he knew he was putting himself in a risky position, he did that, which showed that he was


    serious about the rtionship.


    Everyone was moved.


    For a while, Sydney became the envy of all the girls. Girls were leavingments in the live-stream


    room that they envied her, etc.


    But there was one woman who didn''t think so.


    When Madeline heard Julien dere his affection for Sydney in public, her body trembled with


    jealousy.


    She mmed the table hard and stood up. She gave Sydney a hard stare, and then she turned to


    Julien.


    The look in her eyes wasplex, and anger was in her eyes.


    Sydney rolled her eyes. She clenched her fingers on Julien''s thigh and pinched his thigh hard.


    Julien raised his eyebrows in pain. He grabbed her hand and scratched her palm.


    "What''s wrong?"


    "Someone is seducing you. Are you happy about that?" Sydney asked, ying with a pen in her


    fingers and showing a faint smile.


    Julien frowned and cast a nce at Madeline, disgust in his eyes. "I don''t know. Stop saying that.


    I''m disgusted."


    Sydney was amused by Julien’s answer. Just as she was about to say something more, Madeline


    spoke from the aside, "Mr. Flint, I know you love Sydney, but don''t you have principles?"


    Immediately, everyone’s eyes turned to Madeline.


    People were shocked at Madeline''s audacity. How dare she question Julien?


    Some wondered what she meant by that question.


    "What are you trying to say?" Julien''s face darkened, and his voice was cold.


    Madeline’s body involuntarily shivered. She was frightened.


    Julien''s eyes were so chilly, as if he was going to kill her.


    But Madeline had to face it.


    She clutched her palms, took a deep breath, and put on a stubborn expression. "Mr. Flint, just now,


    the reporter asked whether you would break up with Sydney if it turned out that what I said


    yesterday was true, which is to say, Sydney did bully me and take everything that should have been


    mine. You said no, because you love her. But have you ever thought that you are condoning


    Sydney? You are defending her without principle. It seems like you think there is nothing wrong with


    what Sydney did. Do you think it''s okay? You know full well that Sydney has done the wrong thing,


    but you still take her side. That''s not good for her. You are doing her harm. And it''s irresponsible to


    society."


    "Yeah." Everyone in the conference room and the audience in the live-stream room agreed with


    Madeline.


    Madeline caught a glimpse of people''s agreement with her out of the corner of her eye. She was


    thrilled inside.


    Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!


    She had made it very clear that if Julien didn''t break up with Sydney, it would be irresponsible to


    society.


    Now he should break up with Sydney.


    With this in mind, Madeline nced at Sydney, who was beside Julien. She lifted her chin and


    showed a smug smile.


    Sydney knew what Madeline was thinking. She sneered at Madeline.


    ‘Madeline looks so happy. Does she think she''s going to win? Such a pity...


    Sydney dropped her eyelids, hiding the sneer in her eyes.


    Then the reporters started to ask Julien questions again.


    "Mr. Flint, Vice President Madeline has a point. Do you think you''re doing the right thing if Ms.


    Raines really did those things?"


    "Yes, Mr. Flint. Don''t you worry that what you are doing will set a bad example?"


    Bang!


    Julien pped his hand hard on the table. H’s face was extremely grim.


    Everyone was stunned. The meeting room fell into silence.


    "Will you all shut up?" Julien nced at everyone in the conference room. Then he picked up the


    microphone and growled, "What did I do wrong? I already statedst night that Sydney didn''t do any


    of those things. Even if she did, I would not break up with her. Is that wrong?"


    "Isn''t it?" Madeline asked rhetorically.


    Julien curled his lips and said, "I stand by the woman I love. What''s wrong with that? If I don''t stand


    by her or trust her, that will be my fault. Then I’m not good enough for her."


    "Uh..." The crowd was speechless.


    Julien seemed to have a point.


    Whether Sydney did those things or not, at this moment, he should be on her side.


    Otherwise, what was a boyfriend for?


    If a man didn''t support his girlfriend or didn''t trust her when she got into trouble, how would the


    woman feel?


    She must feel that her boyfriend was unreliable, right?


    Seeing that people seemed to be convinced by Julien, Madeline started to get anxious. "Mr. Flint,


    you are..."


    Julien frowned in disgust. He interrupted her bluntly, "You''re saying I''m defending Sydney without


    principle and that I''m irresponsible to society by siding with her. It''s so ridiculous. Since when is


    taking the side of someone you love a social issue? Where did this ideae from?"


    People bowed their heads in shame.


    Yeah. Speaking up for someone you care about was just a personal choice. It was not a social


    issue.


    They seemed to be making a big deal out of it.


    It was all Madeline''s idea.


    The others looked toward Madeline, various looks in their eyes.


    Madeline''s face turned pale. "What are you guys looking at me for? What do you mean?"


    "What they mean is you did it on purpose. You made Sydney a target of criticism. You wanted to


    affirm the allegations against Sydney and to divide Sydney from me,"Julien went straightforward. He


    revealed Madeline''s intentions.


    Madeline panicked, "You... You''re lying. I didn’t!"


    "Didn’t you?" Sydney asked.


    Sydney took the microphone from Julien and looked at Madeline with the same grim eyes as Julien,


    as if she was not looking at a person but an object.


    "You said you didn''t do that. Then what do you mean by asking Julien those questions? Why did


    you say that defending me was irresponsible to society? Don''t you just want people to believe that I


    did those things? But you seem to be forgetting something. You''ve never shown any evidence that I


    did those things. So it remains doubtful whether what you said is true, doesn''t it?"
