Chapter 739 The Lady Turned out to Be His Cousin


    “Harrow?” Sydney blinked and then looked up at Julien. “I got it. You said just now that your


    grandparent''s family didn''t use Burke as their surname. So, your motheres from the Harrow


    family, right?”


    “Yeah, you’re so clever,” Julien praised her.


    Sydney gave a smile. “You’ve given me such a detailed exnation. If I can’t guess it right, I’m


    really… Well, let’s continue the talk.”


    She waved her hand and added, “But there are quite a few big families with the surname Harrow in


    our country. Which Harrow family does your grandfather belong to?”


    “The Harrow family in Jackal City,” Julien replied.


    “Jackal City...” Sydney thought for a while. Then her eyes widened. “Is it the Harrow family that has


    a good rtionship with the Sullivan family in Jackal City?”


    “Yes.” Julien nodded.


    That was also why Julien’s mother had fallen in love with Dallin.


    “It turns out that the Harrow family in Jackal City is your grandfather’s family.”


    “Well, as the person in charge of the Harrow family is actually surnamed Burke, so people in Jackal


    City call it the Burke family,” Julien exined.


    Sydney nodded. “I got it. Since the Harrow family is in Jackal City while I live in Port City, it’s no


    wonder that I didn’t know about it. But I heard that the Flint family had issues with the Harrow family.


    Is it true?”N?velDrama.Org content rights.


    “It’s true,” Julien admitted squarely, narrowing his eyes.


    Sydney looked astonished. “It’s actually true. What has happened? Isn’t the Harrow family your


    mother’s family? Why do they have issues with your family?”


    “Because it’s not my grandfather who is in charge now.” Julien stroked her hair gently, but he looked


    expressionless.


    Sydney could sense that he was in a bad mood.


    “My great-grandfather had two sons. The elder son was my grandfather. My grandfather inherited


    the property of the Harrow family, and the only child of my grandfather was my mother. Originally, I


    should inherit the property of the Harrow family after my grandfather and my mother died. But when


    I inherited a part of it, the descendants of my grandfather’s young brother came to grab the


    remaining part.” Julien’s voice became cold. “At that time, my grandfather had just passed away. In


    order not to disrupt his funeral, I did not seize back the remaining part and gave it to those people.”


    “Are you willing to give it up?” Sydney asked while staring at him.


    Julien gave a snort. “Well, I don’t care about it. What they took away will be eliminated as time goes


    by. The business was only valuable at that time. I guess you must have heard that the Harrow


    Group has encountered financial problems recently.”


    “Yeah.” Sydney adjusted her posture in his arms. “I often read financial news. Justst week, I read


    the analysis of the Harrow Group in the news. It pointed out that their business was gradually


    declining. If they didn’t update their business, going bankrupt was inevitable. At that time, I still took


    pity on the Harrow family, as their century-old business was on the verge of bankruptcy. I was


    thinking that the Harrow family did not know how to keep pace with the times, as they managed


    their business in an out-of-date way. Since they are robbers, I don’t take pity on them at all.”


    Sydney could sense that the current Harrow family disgusted Julien, so she was not afraid that


    these words would anger him.


    As expected, when Julien heard her words, not only did he not be unhappy, but he even


    laughed.


    “You’re right. There is no need to take pity on the current Harrow family. They thought they had


    grabbed the treasure, but it was something I didn’t want at all. In fact, even if they hadn’t grabbed it,


    I would have given half of the business to them. I even nned to develop the Harrow Group with


    them, because before my grandfather passed away, he had said that he should have treated his


    brother better. So, I initially considered giving them half of the property of the Harrow family. But...”


    Julien narrowed his eyes.


    Sydney looked at him, feeling distressed. “But they disappointed you.”


    Julien rubbed his eyebrows. “Yeah, I was so disappointed. Actually, the Harrow Group began to


    deteriorate many years ago. Four years ago, some people from the Harrow family met me and


    hoped that I could help them. But I refused. I’m such a person. I’ll be responsible for the after-sales


    of the thing I give to others. But if they steal it from me, it has nothing to do with me anymore. So, I


    did not help the Harrow family. Since then, the Harrow family has defamed my family. This is the


    reason for the ipatibility of our two families.”


    “It turns out to be so.” Sydney twitched her mouth. “I got it. It doesn’t matter that they are


    ipatible with your family. Anyway, they’re not the descendants of your grandfather.”


    “Yeah. So, I’ve never cared about the Harrow family.” Julien chuckled. “But I have a good


    rtionship with a person from the Harrow family.”


    Sydney stretched in his arms. “Who?”


    “Well, the younger brother of the person in charge of the Harrow family. He is my uncle. He knew


    clearly that he was not qualified to inherit the Harrow family, so he didn’t grab the property of the


    Harrow family with others back then. He even protected my mother when he was a child. So, I only


    continue the rtionship with him and his wife and daughter.” Julien tidied up her clothes that had


    be messy due to her stretch.


    Sydney leaned against his chest. “I see.”


    “Well, you have also met his daughter, my cousin.” Julien suddenly thought of something and


    looked down at her.


    Sydney looked confused. “Your cousin? When did I meet your cousin?”


    “At thest ball. She danced with me.” Julien reminded her.


    Sydney began recalling the ball.


    A few secondster, she sat up from his arms. “It turns out that thedy is your cousin.”


    At the ball, she danced with Hunter while Julien danced with anotherdy.


    Though thedy was not very beautiful, she was tall and charming, looking like a model.


    At that time, Julien joked, drank and danced with thedy.


    Sydney thought that thedy came from a noble family and that Julien had affection for her.


    She didn’t expect thedy to be his cousin.


    After realizing that she had misunderstood his cousin, Sydney flushed scarlet, feeling very


    embarrassed.


    Julien raised his eyebrows when sensing her embarrassment. “What’s up?”


    “Well, I just misunderstood your cousin,” Sydney lowered her eyes and replied embarrassedly.


    Julien narrowed his eyes. “Huh? Misunderstood? Why did you misunderstand her?”


    “Well, don’t ask me anymore. It’s too embarrassing!” Sydney covered her face with her hands.


    Looking at her, Julien seemed to figure out the reason and beganughing.


    Hearing himugh, Sydney felt even more embarrassed. “Stopughing!”


    She shot a re at him.


    Although she mistook his cousin for his crush, she didn’t do so intentionally, because he was very


    close to his cousin at the ball.


    It was he who had misled her, and now he wasughing at her.


    Julien knew Sydney’s embarrassment. He gave a cough. “Well, I won’tugh anymore. Put your


    hands down. Don’t cover your face. Can you breathe?”


    Sydney didn’t move her hands.


    Julien had no choice but to take her hands away from her face.


    Looking at her blushing face, Julien reached out to fondle it.


    “What are you doing?” Sydney immediately backed away.


    Julien looked at her with a half-smile. “Nothing. Your face is red and hot. I want to cool it down.”


    “No need,” Sydney replied with embarrassment.


    Julien knew that she had a thin skin, so he stopped teasing her. He even changed the subject. “By


    the way, where did you go this afternoon?”
