Chapter 9 Taunt Me?
Julien''s face instantly sank.
As if he could imagine Julien''s face, Hunterughed and teased. "Oh my, I can''t believe I learned
about your divorce through the trending topics. How is it? Does it feel good to be cucked?"
“...Shut up."
"Haha. Sydney is a good woman, but you don’t know how to cherish her. Only she could''ve put up
with you for six years. If it were anyone else, they would’ve dumped you long ago."
Julien was unhappy. "I don’t like her."
"Yes, yes, yes. You like that Lyra girl, right?"
Hunter had met Lyra in her college days before.
There was a saying that outsiders could see things more objectively than those involved. Hence, he
knew with a nce that the eldest youngdy of the
Madden family was not someone easy to deal with.
However, Julien...
Hunter, in fact, had a good impression of Sydney. She was good to Julien and kept the Flint family
in good order. She was also a very hard worker, but what a shame.
Julien''s face was grim. "Did you call me just to taunt me?" "Me? I''m just here to tell you that your ex-
wife spent a lot of money to book the entire first floor of The Little Treasury, and I''ve had the honor
of being invited to the party. Well, that''s all from me. I’m going to watch the dance now."
The other party hung up the call.
Julien looked at the phone with an expressionless face and then continued to work on the
documents as if nothing had happened.
The next second, Zach suddenly came in. "Sir, the Old Madam is back."
In The Little Treasury.
Sydney invited Hunter for a purpose.
Very few people knew that Hunter was the second son of the vice mayor. His main industries were
overseas, and he was only back this time to sign a contract with Skylight Corporation.
However, the people of Skylight Corporation’s board of directors looked down on this rising star and
shut him outside the door.
She knew that her chance hade.
Sydney held a ss of wine and walked over with a smile. "Mr. Cohen, it’s been a year since we’ve
met, but you''re still as handsome as ever."
Hunter had a pair of sharp, almond-shaped eyes, which made him look dashing. He also had a
natural smile on his face. "On the other hand, you surprise me, Ms. Raines. It''s hard to imagine that
this beautiful, sexy, delicate, and elegant woman in front of me is the same person as two years
ago." 1

Sydney swirled the wine ss, keeping the smile on her face. "People change. We always have to
look ahead, right?”
Hunter deliberately approached her and lowered his voice, saying half-jokingly, "There’s something I
don’t understand. You clearly know that I''m a good friend of Julien, so why did you invite me? Are
you infatuated by my handsome appearance?"
Sydney knew that the man liked to joke around, so she did not get annoyed. Instead, she followed
the man''s actions and leaned in his ear.
After whispering a few words, Hunter''s face instantly turned serious.
He looked at her with mixed feelings. "You''re such an intelligent woman. Julien will definitely regret
it."
The smile on Sydney’s mouth faded. "He''s in the past. What''s the point of bringing him up?"
"That''s true. From now on, we''ll be the first in the world! So, beautiful Ms. Raines, may I have this
dance?" Hunter kept his yful smile. He was just about to reach for her hand when he was
interrupted by a voice.
Cayden, with his long legs and a ss of juice in hand, did not even nce at Hunter when he
directly reced the wine in Sydney’s hand. "Sydney, drinking too much will make your head hurt."
What surprised Hunter was that Sydney was not repulsed at all and naturally took the ss of juice.
He turned his eyes to the young man again before he froze.
The young man was attractive and had a good temperament, which was as expected of a famous
and popr supermodel.
Well then...
He seemed to foresee Julien''s future misery.
