Chapter 110 Putting on a Show
"Aren''t you going in?" Although Julien did not know where Sydney got the qualification to join the
meeting, he knew that she was here for the meeting.
Sydney bit her lower lip. "You go in first. I don''t want to go in with you.”
She could hear that there were quite a lot of people in the room.
If she went in with him, people might start specting. After all, their rtionship was too awkward.
Julien seemed to understand and lowered his eyes." There are still three minutes left. You''ll be
disqualified from the meeting if you’rete."
Then, he pushed open the door and went in.
Sydney looked at his back in surprise.
Was he reminding her?
However, whether he was or not, Sydney kept it in mind. She stared at her watch and waited until
the second hand made a full circle before taking a deep breath and pushing the door in.
Her appearance caused the people inside to stare at her in surprise.
"Isn''t that President Flint''s ex-wife?"
"She''s Skylight Corporation''s Vice President."
"Skylight Corporation is about to go bankrupt. How did she get the meeting qualification?”
The crowd exchanged whispers among each other.
Only Julien and Brandon Madden did not.
Julien lowered his head slightly as if he was organizing the information in his hands, but in reality,
he was looking at Sydney from the corner of his eyes.
When he saw that she did not show a trace of timidity and nervousness on such an asion, he
could not help the curl that emerged on his lips. A trace of appreciation shed in his eyes before it
disappeared just as quickly.
Brandon, on the other hand, red viciously at Sydney with gloomy eyes, wanting nothing more
than to tear her apart.
Sydney sensed his hostility but was not afraid and instead smiled at him graciously. "President
Madden, long time no see."
Brandon was suddenly stunned.
He actually saw the image of his dead mother on this damn girl’s body.
Her smile earlier was especially simr to his mother when she provoked others when she was
young.
Sydney did not know why Brandon suddenly went into a daze while staring at her, but she did not
bother to guess either. She withdrew her gaze and turned her attention to Julien.
Julien sat at the head of the conference table. It was clear that he was the initiator of this new
energy joint cooperation case.
For a moment, Sydney''s heart sank like a rock.
She was not very confident about getting the cooperation position because Skylight Corporation''s
power was already well-known. Skylight had no advantages. Despite that, she still had a glimmer of
hope.
However, the sponsor now was her ex-husband who had no feelings for her and even loathed her.
He would definitely not want to work with her. What should she do?
Sydney lowered her head, feeling a little depressed.
Julien saw this and frowned slightly.
What happened to her?
"President Flint, it''s time." Zach reminded him.
Julien withdrew his attention from Sydney, put down the sorted information in his hand, and then
nced around at the people present. "Has everyone read the cooperation case?"
"Yes.” The crowd nodded.
Julien opened his thin lips. "This new energy technology is thetest breakthrough of my
Shifting to the side, he continued, "At present, the upper brass already knows about this technology.
Flint Corporation isn’t allowed to monopolize it, which is where youe in. I''ll choose five suitable
cooperation partners among you to utilize this technology together."
Sydney was struck by realization and murmured, "So, that''s how it is.”
She had found it strange when she took the cooperation case from Stephen earlier. Why did the
sponsor simply not use such good technology for himself? It turned out that it was because he was
not allowed to monopolize it.
Well, it was true that if this technology was monopolized by onepany, it would easily lead to a
serious imbnce in the domestic economy. The upper brass would absolutely never allow it.
"President Flint, we all know about what you just said, but I have a question." Brandon suddenly
raised his hand.
Julien looked at him. "What question?”
Brandon turned his gaze to Sydney.
Sydney frowned slightly and knew that this person was going to start targeting her again.
Sure enough, Brandon pointed at Sydney. "When you invited us toe over for the meeting, you
said that only the top 20 enterprises in Port City were invited, and only the five most suitable
companies would be selected for cooperation. In that case, why did someone from Skylight
Corporatione?"
The others also looked at Sydney with meaningful eyes.
Sydney clenched her fists, her expression unpleasant.
She did not know that Julien only invited the top 20 enterprises. In that case, how did Stephen get
the qualification for the meeting?
Moreover, Stephen did not tell her about this. He clearly wanted these people to humiliate her.
Sydney’s body trembled in anger.
Julien was inexplicably distressed when he saw her like this, but the expression on his face was as
cold as ever. "It was an additional quota. I told Zach to handle it. Some medium-sized enterprises
can draw lots to join. It''s to give them a chance.”
"Why haven’t I heard that you added an additional quota, and Skylight Corporation was selected so
coincidentally too? Julien, you didn''t give it to her on purpose, did you?" Brandon looked at him, his
face full of doubt.
Julien''s expression darkened. "If you don''t believe me,
N?velDrama.Org owns all ? content.
President Madden, you can check it yourself. Alright, let’s continue the meeting."
Brandon saw that Julien was unhappy and snorted before falling silent.
Although he was Julien’s future father-inw, Julien had not married Lyra yet.
Therefore, it was better not to make him too angry.
"Just as President Madden said earlier, I’ll only select the most suitablepanies for cooperation.
As for how this suitability is judged, the best method is by a proposal.”
Julien''s eyes swept across everyone''s face and fixed on Sydney for two more seconds. "Each of
you will work out a proposal that includes the application, value, advantages and disadvantages of
new energy, etcetera. Send it to Flint Corporation next Monday and I''ll decide ording to the
quality of your proposal whether you''re suitable or not."
"That''s a good method." The people nodded.
Brandon tried to cause trouble again. "President Flint, you won''t open the back door for Vice
President Raines just because she''s your ex-wife, right?"
Julien''s expression turned cold as he was just about to speak.
Sydney smiled and opened her mouth first. "President Madden, I no longer have any rtionship
with President Flint. How would he open the back door for me? Even if we had a rtionship
before, he wouldn''t do that. On the other hand, you''re President Flint''s future father-inw now,
President Madden. You should be the most qualified to go through the back door. Besides..."
She looked at the man at the head of the table with a vague smile. "You''re going to be President
Flint’s future father-inw. As long as you ask, President Flint is sure to give you a spot even if your
proposal isn''t good. He’s still marrying your daughter after all, right?"
At those words, everyone’s eyes when they looked at Julien and Brandon became a little odd.
Their gazes at Brandon, especially, were tinged with a trace of hostility.
Yes, Brandon was President Flint''s future father-inw. President Flint was sure to give him a spot.
Although there was nothing wrong with this, it still felt very unfair psychologically. Everyone was
competing fairly, but Brandon could rely on his connections to directly ascend to the top.
Brandon felt the anger of these people and his face twisted in rage.
That damned girl did it on purpose. She was deliberately instigating these people and closing his
back door.
He actually did intend to let Julien directly give him a spot, but these people were eyeing him now
because of that damned girl''s words. If he insisted on Julien giving him the green light, it would be
equivalent to standing against more than a dozen enterprises at the same time.
At that thought, Brandon forcefully suppressed the anger in his heart and said with a fake smile,
"Don’t worry, everyone. Of course, I won''t do that."
"You might not, but that doesn''t mean that Ms.
Madden won''t either." Sydney did not let him off. She cupped her cheek in her palm and grinned,
saying," As long as Ms. Madden speaks to President Flint, President Flint will definitely agree."
Julien clenched his fists and said coldly, "In your eyes, am I just a man who''s blinded by lust?"
