Chapter 359 Cutting off Their Father-Daughter Rtionship
"What are you thinking about, Sydney?" Hunter put his hand in front of her and waved when he saw
her suddenly space out.
Sydney''s eyes flickered, and she said indifferently, "Nothing."
"Then, about Davey..."
Sydney bit her lip and seemed to be considering.
When Hunter saw this, he secretly shot a look at Davey which said, ''Kid, hurry up and do
something. It''ll depend on you whether you can stay here or not. I''ve already tried my best.''
Davey rolled his eyes and replied with his eyes, ''Stupid uncle. You were the one who brought me
here. You said that Aunty was ignoring you because you two fought, so you want me to act as a
peacemaker and let her forgive you. How can you dump everything on me now? I''m just a baby.''
Hunter''s lips twitched ''Cut the crap and do something. Do you still want her to be your Aunty? If you
do, then hurry up and act cute. Make her take you in. That way, you can help put in a few good
words for me.''
Davey had no choice. He sighed like a small adult and put on a quiet expression, pulling on
Sydney''s sleeve. He looked at her pitifully. "Aunty, take me in. I don’t want to be alone at home.
Please, Aunty?"
He blinked his wide eyes twice, looking like he was about to cry.
"Please, Sydney." Hunter hurriedly echoed.
Sydney looked at him and then at the teary-eyed Davey. Finally, her heart softened, and she
reached out to wipe away Davey''s tears, nodding. "Okay. I''ll help you take care of Davey for the
next two days."
"Great! I can finally stay with Aunty." Davey smiled happily.
"Thank you, Sydney." Hunter bowed at her with a grateful look, but in reality, his heart was
incredibly excited.
''Good job, kid! Sure enough, you''re the most adorable kid in the Cohen family!
''You won over Sydney immediately.''
Hunter put Davey down and crouched down to instruct him, "Davey, be good and listen to Aunty''s
words. Don’t be naughty, okay?" ''Kid, remember your task and improve your uncle and aunty''s
rtionship.
''This is the real purpose I brought you here.''
Davey nodded obediently. "I know, Uncle Hunter. I won''t be naughty."
''Don''t worry, Uncle Hunter. I''ll make Aunty forgive you. Don''t forget my Transformers collection.''
"Good boy. I''m relieved." Hunter patted his head.
I won''t forget. Stop reminding me.''
Hunter stood up and looked at Sydney. "I''ll leave Davey to you. "
Sydney was not aware of the telepathic conversation the uncle and nephew exchanged earlier. She
just nodded with a hum. "Okay." "I''ll leave now," Hunter said again.
"Bye," Sydney responded.
Hunter smiled bitterly.
''She wants me to leave. She didn''t even tell me to stop for some tea.''
However, that was not the worst of it.
The worst thing was that Davey was waving at him too. "Bye, Uncle Hunter!"
Hunter''s lips twitched as he secretly red at the boy.
''Brat, you''re so useless. Your Aunty isn''t inviting me to have some tea, but you can pretend to cry
and say you don''t want me to leave yet.
''Maybe I''ll be able to stay a little longer that way.''
Davey, who saw through Hunter''s thoughts, merely pulled a face. Hunter''s expression twisted in
anger.
''This little brat! I shouldn''t have spoiled you!’
He sighed and turned around to walk toward the elevator.
After his figure disappeared into the elevator, Sydney pulled Davey into the house.
The next day, she was woken up by a phone call.
It was from Luke. "Darling, look online.
Brandon is holding a press conference."
"Press conference?" Sydney sat up from the bed. "What kind of conference?"
"I don''t know, but it should be rted to Lyra. After all, there was a huge hoo-ha when she was
arrested again yesterday, and it caused a serious impact on Trison Corporation. There''s no way he
can stay low," Luke said.
Property ? N?velDrama.Org.
Sydney nodded slightly. "Okay, I''ll take a look."
After saying that, she put down the phone, got out of bed, left the room, and went to the study.
However, before entering the study, she first went to the other bedroom and quietly opened the door
to check if the little one was awake or not.
When she saw the boy sprawled out on his back on the bed, snoring softly, she smiled and closed
the door. Then, she went to the study and turned on theputer.
She clicked into Trison Corporation''s official website and saw Brandon''s press conference.
The conference had already started for a while. At this time, Brandon was answering the reporter''s
questions about Lyra being sent to prison again.
Sydney watched carefully, wanting to hear Brandon''s answer.
However, Brandon''s answer was very straightforward. There was nothing exciting about it.
The reporters wanted to hear an explosive answer, so Brandon''s textbook answer made them very
dissatisfied.
Thus, another reporter stood up and asked," President Madden, will you try to bail your daughter
out?"
This question was rather sharp.
Some other reporters wanted to ask as well, but they were afraid of being criticized by the officials if
they did.
After all, asking someone powerful like Brandon whether he wanted to bail out a suspect would be
the same as causing a cyber war.
The most sensitive thing forizens was when people in power did whatever they wanted. Thus,
the reporters held back and did not ask that question.
Unexpectedly, this rash reporter asked the question bluntly. The other reporters were surprised and
terrified at the same time, but they were also envious.
In the hospital, in the VIP ward.
Julien''s back injury had been stabilized, so he was transferred from the ICU to a general ward.
He was also watching the press conference.
His brow furrowed when he heard this reporter''s question.
Beside him, Zach said, "That reporter is probably a rookie. Otherwise, he wouldn''t ask a question
like that."
"It doesn''t matter. I also want to hear Brandon''s answer," Julien narrowed his eyes and said
indifferently.
Although the question was sharp, it was not an easy question to answer.
If Brandon said he would not save Lyra, the Inte might support him, but the people in the
business world would not.
After all, if he could give up on his own family, there was no guarantee that he would not betray
them at any moment. Thus, it would be even harder for Brandon to mix around in the business
world.
However, if he said that he would save Lyra, then the Inte would boycott him, and he would also
be taken away by the officials.
Thus, Brandon''s answer would be very interesting. Would he save Lyra, or would he not?
Julien was not the only one who wanted to hear this answer. The reporters at the site, the audience
watching the conference, and Sydney all wanted to know.
This question was equivalent to forcing Brandon to the edge of a cliff. No matter how he answered,
the end would not look pretty.
Brandon knew this as well. His gaze swept grimly over to the reporter who asked this question.
Then, he took a deep breath and faced the camera, saying, "My answer to that question is no. I
won''t be saving her!"
Not many people were surprised when this statement was made.
After all, everyone knew that he would most likely choose not to save Lyra. Although he might have
trouble in the business world from now on, theizens would support him, so he would most likely
choose not to save her.
"Also..." Brandon suddenly continued.
The crowd looked at him in a hurry.
The reporter who asked the question earlier asked, "Also, what?"
Brandon looked at him. "Also, I want to announce that from this moment forth, I''m breaking off the
father-daughter rtionship with Lyra. She''s no longer a member of the Madden family!"
"What?" The crowd was shocked.
Sydney and Julien were also stunned.
Brandon severed his father-daughter rtionship with Lyra!
However, Sydney soon figured it out and calmed down.
Brandon making this decision at this juncture was the most appropriate move.
First of all, Lyra was not his biological daughter. Since she caused Trison Corporation to fall this far,
Brandon had no reason not to sever his ties with her.
