Chapter 287 Stayed Through the Night


    Sydney''s frown deepened.


    What did he sound like a husband questioning his wife?


    Did he not get his identity right?


    "Where did I go with Hunter has nothing to do with you. Why are you overstepping your


    boundaries?" Sydney pursed her lips and turned around.


    Julien pulled her arm to stop her. "I''m just worried. It''s sote and..."

    "I don’t need your worry!" Sydney withdrew her arm and stared at Julien with a cold gaze. "You


    never worried about me back then, so you don''t have to now either.


    President Flint, it''ste. Please go back."


    After saying that, she turned around and walked toward the elevator.


    Julien did not stop her, and he just silently stared at her silhouette as she disappeared into the


    building.


    Back in her apartment, Sydney took off her shoes and put her bag aside before stepping into the


    bathroom.


    After taking a quick shower, she headed straight to bed.


    She was already in bed around 10 PM, but Hunter called her out and now she was so sleepy that


    she could not even open her eyes.


    Sydney yawned and walked toward the window to draw her curtains.


    Suddenly, she looked downstairs and saw that Julien''s car was still parked by the side.


    Julien was still here.


    Could he be nning something?


    Sydney sneered and drew her curtains before returning to bed.


    Downstairs, Julien kept looking at a certain someone’s window.


    When he saw the lights go off, he knew that she had already gone to bed.


    Suddenly, Julien''s phone rang.


    He nced at it and saw that it was Zach who called.


    "What is it?" Julien put it on speaker and ced the phone on the passenger seat. He then took out


    a pack of cigarettes and a lighter from the glovepartment.


    Zach said, "It''s nothing serious. The hospital informed me that Lyra Madden


    has woken up.''


    Julien nodded and did not seem to have a reaction. He took out a cigarette and lit it up.


    Zach did notment on his attitude. He continued, "There''s something else. rice Madden is


    found."


    "What?" Julien paused and narrowed his eyes. "rice Madden?"


    "Yes.” Zach nodded.


    Julien frowned “Is it really rice Madden?"


    "Most likely. rice found Brandon


    Madden and his wife with her daughter ne. They did a paternity test and the results are still


    pending. However, rice is still with them, so it''s most likely real," Zach exined.


    Julien went deep in thought.


    Daughter ne...


    Was the daughter ne not with Sydney? How did it end up in someone else''s hand?


    Could it be a fake one?


    No. Brandon Madden and his wife could definitely recognize a fake ne. After all, it was a


    ne that they gave to their daughter, and no one would be more familiar with it than the both of


    them.


    Moreover, this ne was specially made, and it was the one and only in the world. There were


    no photos of it on the Inte. Even if there was, it was only Mrs. Madden''s mother ne.


    Even though the daughter ne looked very simr to the mother’s one, there were still some


    differences between them, and it would be hard to forge one.


    The only exnation for this was that rice Madden was rted to Sydney.


    Maybe Sydney gave the ne to rice and told her to look for Brandon.


    Why did Sydney do that?


    Julien raised his head once more and looked at the darkroom upstairs, his eyebrows in a tight


    furrow.


    "President Flint? President Flint?" When Zach did not hear his reply, he called again.


    Julien came back to his senses. * Investigate rice''s background and find out if she had contact


    with Sydney."


    He was afraid that Sydney might have gotten pranked.


    If rice had another identity, then it would be dangerous to Sydney.


    "Yes." Zach was curious why Julien tied both rice Madden and Sydney together, but he did not


    question him and did as he was told.


    When the call ended, Julien put his arm on his car window and flicked the ashes off his cigarette.


    He continued staring at Sydney''s unit.


    He stayed there for the entire night.


    The next morning, Sydney got ready and was about to head to Skylight Corporation.


    Once she opened the door, she saw Julien standing by the side.


    Julien was still in his suit from yesterday, and he looked tired with the dark circles under his eyes.


    Sydney knew that he did not leavest night.


    "You stayed here the entire night?" Sydney asked with a frown.


    Julien''s eyes glimmered. "Did you pay attention to me?"


    Otherwise, how would she know that he stayed the entire night?


    Sydney pursed her lips. “You’re just overthinking. I didn''t pay attention to you."


    When Sydney denied it, Julien’s eyes darkened but he was not disappointed.


    Since she noticed that he stayed the night, then she must have paid attention to him.


    He was ted.


    "Breakfast." Julien stretched out his hand and handed a paper bag to Sydney. He was afraid that


    she might reject it like she did thest time, so he quickly exined," Don’t worry. This isn’t the


    same as those fromst time. I queued up and bought this from a nearby restaurant." "You queued


    up yourself?" Sydney looked at him in surprise.


    Julien nodded. "Yes."


    Sydney said nothing.


    She heard about the nearby restaurant that he was talking about. The food there was great and she


    had also tried it before. However, it was rare for her to get it because there was always a long


    queue.


    She did not expect a man like Julien Flint to queue up himself and buy her breakfast. After all, he


    was raised in a wealthy family, and whenever he wanted something, all he had to do was give out


    orders.


    When Sydney imagined him queuing up with his suit, standing among olddies while they fought


    for breakfast, Sydneyughed.


    "What are youughing at?" Julien looked at her with bewilderment.


    Sydney waved her hand. "Nothing. You can have breakfast yourself. I''m not hungry."


    Right after she said that, her stomach grumbled in protest.


    Julien looked toward her abdomen and his eyes became incredibly gentle. He quickly withdrew his


    gaze to avoid her from noticing.


    "You’re hungry,” Julien said.


    Sydney''s face turned red, and her eyes were filled with embarrassment. "No, I''m not."


    "Your stomach is making noise," Julien replied.


    Sydney clenched her fist and said, "You heard it wrongly.


    She then walked past him toward the elevator.


    Julien looked at her stubbornness and felt deeply amused. He quickly caught up to her and walked


    next to her. "Alright, I heard it wrongly. Just have some. I never bought anyone a breakfast like this


    before.''


    The elevator reached.


    Sydney went in, and there was an old couple inside. They had sports outfits on, and they must be


    heading to the park to exercise.


    Sydney smiled at them and withdrew her smile when she looked at Julien. “You don’t have to tell me


    that. I don’t care. I won’t ept the breakfast that you buy."


    When Julien heard that, his heart sank and he lowered his gaze. His surrounding aura became


    rather depressing.


    The old couple at the side could not stay still any longer. One of them asked, "Girl, did you fight with


    your boyfriend?"


    When Julien heard the word "boyfriend", his eyes glimmered. He gave the old couple an apologetic


    nod, indicating that he was sorry to bother them.


    His actions were admitting that he was Sydney''s boyfriend.


    Sydney was stunned.


    How could this man be so shameless?


    When Sydney wanted to exin that he was not her boyfriend, the olddyughed and said, "Girl,


    I heard your conversation. You can''t do that to him."
