Chapter 607 Can I Kiss You
Hearing Sydney''s words, Julien nodded. "Well, you''re not wrong in saying that."
Smiling, Sydney then continued, "Even if I did manage to find them, how would we get along? It''s
not suitable for us to have a parent and child rtionship. After all, we haven''t spent a lot of time
together. Being rtives is weird as well, as they are my biological parents, which would make both
them and me stuck in an awkward situation."
She thought perhaps her biological parents were already dead.
"To not seek and think about them is the most sensible thing to do." Julien nodded.
The truth was, hearing from Sydney that she wouldn''t seek out her biological parents made him
breathe a sigh of relief.
If she wanted to find her biological parents, even if Julien did try to prevent her from doing this,
sooner orter, she would still know that her father was Brandon.
Hence, it would be better for Sydney to not look for her biological parents. This way, she would not
feel curious about her true identity, and he hoped that she would never find out her parents were the
Maddens.
"That''s right. Actually, I was only a bit down when I found out I wasn''t my parents'' daughter. I knew
from the instant I stepped into the Raines family that I was already considered their daughter. As for
my biological parents, I don''t care about why they abandoned me anymore. The moment that I
appeared at the orphanage was the moment that our ties were severed," said Sydney.
Upon hearing that, Julien nodded. "It''s good that you think of it like that."

Rubbing her temples, she added, "Although I did say all of this, in the end, I still don''t have any
blood rtions with the Raines."
"Is that why you wanted Madeline to bear a child? Because you are not your parents'' biological
daughter, you want Madeleine to continue the bloodline of your family, don''t you? " It was only then
that Julien realized her true intentions.
A bitter smile appeared at the corner of Sydney''s mouth. "You''re right. That is my true aim. Although
Madeline did poison my father, she''s still his only flesh and blood, no matter what. I will let her pay
her dues, but at the same time, I also want her to continue the bloodline."
"In the future, Madeline will go to jail. Will you be raising her child? " Julien questioned as he looked
at her.
Sydney nodded. "Yes, I will, but I''m not raising the child for her. I''m raising them as the heir of the
Raines family. I will make sure to raise them properly and not let them develop any of the bad habits
their mother possessed. Then, when they finally grow up, I will let them inherit Skylight Corporation.
This is the only way I can think of to repay my parents for raising me until now."
Naturally, if Sydney was her parent''s biological daughter, she would not do such a thing. Yet, she
was not. Madeline was their only biological daughter.
Hence, she could only continue the bloodline through Madeline.
"I understand now. If you want to, then do it. I''ll help you raise the child." Julien said gently.
Sitting up straight, Sydney asked, "Don''t you think that my actions are uneptable? "
After all, not everyone could ept her way of repaying her parents.
"I don''t think it''s uneptable." Julien shook his head. "As long as you think that this is correct, then
just do it. I''ll support you no matter what."
Besides, it was just a child. It was not something he could not ept.
Moreover, the child was not even Sydney and someone else''s.
"Thank you." Hearing the support and encouragement from Julien made Sydney feel warm-hearted
and
touched inside, and her expression turned gentle.
"You don''t need to thank me. We''re in this together, so I''m on your side." Reaching out, Julien
tucked the strands of hair behind her ear. "But you cannot let Madeline just get pregnant just like
that."
"I know." Sydney hummed in agreement and said in a serious tone, "I know that Madeline would not
listen to your suggestion. I know her too well, and she will try to abort the child somehow. So from
the start, I never wanted her to get pregnant. I just needed her genes. ''
If Sydney obtained Madeline''s genes, she could then find an organization that specialized in gic
reproduction abroad. After ten months, a child would be born.
"That''s great. Do you need my help with it? " Julien asked as he gave her a peeled shrimp.
Shaking her head, Sydney said, "There''s no need. I can manage by myself."
"Alright. Just tell me straight if you need help. You don''t have to feel burdened by it. After all, we''re
about to reconcile, right?" Julien said as he looked at her intently, putting down his fork.
When Sydney looked at Julien, she could see the expectation in his eyes. In the end, she gave in
and nodded. "Alright. If there are any problems, I’lle to
Julien hummed in response and smiled.
After dinner, it was already 8 p.m.
Julien then drove Sydney back to Shallow Bay. After they arrived, he followed her into her
apartment.
"You can sit on the sofa and watch TV for a while. I''ll go make you some tea." Sydney put her bag
down as she said this. With a slight nod, Julien replied, "No need. I''ll just have some water."
"You''ll still need to wait," Sydney said as she went to the kitchen.
Julien sat down on the sofa, but he did not watch TV. Instead, he turned to look at the kitchen. After
a while, he suddenly stood up and began to walk to the kitchen.
At the entrance to the kitchen, Julien looked at Sydney, who was busy in the kitchen.
At that moment, Sydney had on an apron as she washed the teacups.
Even though Julien had said she didn''t need to make tea, it still looked like she was preparing a pot
of it.
From her actions in washing the teacups alone, he could tell that she did not have tea often, as she
did not use those teacups.
Hence, it was quite obvious that she was washing the teacups just for him.
At that thought, Julien was touched by this small action of hers. He walked toward Sydney and
hugged
her from behind.
Then Sydney froze as she paused her movement. It was only after quite a while that she collected
herself and turned to face Julien. Then she asked, "Why did youe to the kitchen? "
Yet, she did not order him to let go of her.
epting the fact that they would be together again, Sydney had already resigned herself to having
such intimate moments.
What she expected happened ahead of time.
Instead of rejecting him, Sydney epted his intimate reaction because she had to get used to this
sooner orter.
"Staying in the living room by myself was quite boring, so I came to apany you." After saying
that, Julien turned her around.
Raising her gaze, Sydney replied, "I don''t need yourpany. I''m just brewing up a pot of tea. It''s
not like I''m doing anything else."
"I know. I know. It''s just that I want to. Also, I miss you and want to kiss you. " Julien looked at her
red lips.
His words made Sydney widen her eyes. "You..."
"May I, Sydney? " Lowering his head, Julien rested his forehead against hers and asked in a hoarse
and low tone.
Slowly stiffening up, Sydney blushed.
She did not know how to respond to him.
If she said no, it would likely hurt him.
Yet, she could not bring herself to say yes.
In the end, she decided to stay silent.
Seeing Sydney keeping her silence, Julien once again opened his mouth and asked, "Can I,
Sydney? "
This time, his voice grew even hoarser, with the expectation in his eyes.
Seeing Julien looking forward to it so much, Sydney felt that she couldn''t let him down. She didn''t
want to see his bright ck eyes darken, so after a few seconds of hesitation, she finally nodded
and hummed in agreement.
Sydney thought, ''Whatever! We''ll kiss each other in the future anyway. So what if we kiss each
other a bit earlier?''
After thinking that, Sydney let go of such thoughts and rxed her body.
Her reply made Julien look thrilled. Finally, he lifted her chin and kissed her lips.
This was the first time that the two had properly kissed, and it wasn''t one of those idental kisses
they had in the past.
They wanted to kiss each other from the bottom of their hearts, for Sydney finally epted Julien
again.
Hence, the kiss this time was much sweeter and better than their previous kisses.
