Chapter 825 One of Men''s Responsibilities


    After waiting for about half an hour, Julien was drinking coffee when he suddenly heard a noise from


    the conference room across from him.


    He put down his coffee cup and stood up, looking toward the conference room, just in time to see


    the door open and a group of peoplee out in twos and threes.


    Julien stared at those people, looking for the figure he had been thinking about.


    But after seeing several peoplee out, he didn''t see the figure he wanted to see, which made


    Julien look somewhat disappointed.


    It seemed that she would be thest toe out.


    Julien pursed his lips thoughtfully, but he did not withdraw his gaze.


    What if Sydney wasn''t thest toe out? Then wouldn''t he miss her?


    Julien''s eyes were intense and soon attracted the attention of the people from the conference room.


    They looked over, stunned to see Julien standing there.


    Têxt belongs to N?velDrama.Org.


    "Mr. ... Mr. Flint?"


    Someone couldn''t help but shout.


    This shout made other people recover from their stupefaction.


    "It''s really Mr. Flint. I thought I was wrong."


    "Me too."


    "What''s Mr. Flint doing here?"


    Some people were curious.


    But soon, these curious people wereughed at by others.


    "Nonsense. Why do you think he is here? Ms. Raines and Mr. Flint are a pair."


    Being reminded of this, the curious people immediately reacted and quickly pped their foreheads.


    "Yes, yes. We almost forgot. Mr. Flint must havee to look for Ms. Raines."


    "That''s right."


    "Then ... should we go and say hello?" someone inquired.


    But soon there were objections from others. "No need. Mr. Flint is here to look for Ms. Raines. We


    will annoy him if we do that, won''t we?"


    "But he is here. It seems a little improper not to go over to say hello."


    "This..."


    The crowd fell silent.


    Indeed, it was improper not to greet Julien, but it would annoy him if they did so. What should they


    do?


    Moreover, it made them not know whether to stay or leave.


    For a while, the Skylight''s executives who hade out of the conference room were distressed.


    Stephen, who was among the crowd, listened to the discussion and looked at the man staring at


    them with a sullen face.


    Stephen had always been vexed by the rtionship between Julien and Sydney.


    The better their rtionship was, the worse it was for Stephen.


    If they were close, once Sydney had trouble, Julien would help her, and then Stephen''s dream of


    getting Skylight would be even harder to achieve.


    So Stephen couldn''t wait for their rtionship to be bad.


    But right now, that was unrealistic.


    Julien came here to pick up Sydney from work, so how could their rtionship be bad?


    Stephen clenched his fists, and his face was full of frustration.


    Seeing Stephen like this, the executives on Sydney''s side snickered disdainfully in their hearts.


    They thought Stephen was beyond stupid.


    Stephen did not have the ability to manage the group, but his ambition was very big. He was


    determined to grasp Skylight, ignoring the fact that before Sydney took over Skylight, Skylight had


    almost been ruined by him. Sydney sought help from many people and finally rescued Skylight.


    Yet Stephen was not grateful, and he even wanted to snatch power from Sydney, drive her away,


    and manage Skylight himself.


    Stephen didn''t even realize that Julien would be the first to break off the partnership with Skylight if


    he drove Sydney away.


    After all, half of Skylight''s business now relied on the subsidiaries of the Flint Corporation, and the


    rest was gotten by Sydney and Luke.


    Once Sydney lost power, it would be strange if Julien did not stop the cooperation, and Sydney and


    Luke would rather sabotage the rest of the business than leave it to Stephen.


    It could be said that Skylight waspletely supported by Sydney. Without Sydney, Skylight would


    naturally be gone.


    Everyone could see this very clearly, except Stephen, who only knew how to fight for power and


    personal gains. He ignored it and thought that even if Sydney was driven away, Skylight could


    remain in its current state.


    He was daydreaming.


    A director nced at Stephen with contempt and then tilted his head to order a manager, "Go in and


    tell Ms. Raines that Mr. Flint is here waiting for her. Ask her to stop checking the meeting minutes


    and hurry out to see Mr. Flint so that we can leave. "


    If Julien didn''t leave, they couldn''t leave either.


    "Yes," the manager answered. He then turned back and walked into the conference room.


    In the conference room, Sydney was sitting in her seat, going through the meeting minutes.


    At that moment, a man came to her quickly. "Ms. Raines."


    Sydney paused, looked up, and smiled at the person. "Dorian, what''s up?"


    "Ms. Raines, Mr. Flint is here," Dorian said, pointing outside.


    Sydney looked over, but she couldn''t see the situation outside. She was able to guess the meaning


    based on Dorian''s action.


    She stood up in surprise. "You mean Julien is outside?"


    "Yes." Dorian nodded repeatedly. "Mr. Flint is waiting for you."


    "When did he get here? How long has he been here?" Sydney asked as she took out her phone to


    see if there was a message from Julien or something.


    When she checked, there was indeed one.


    And it was sent more than half an hour ago.


    In other words, Julien came more than half an hour ago.


    Dorian shook his head. "I don''t know. When we finished the meeting and went out, we saw Mr. Flint


    sitting at the front desk. He has probably been here for a while."


    "I see. Thanks for telling me that." Sydney smiled at him. She quickly gathered up all the documents


    on the table, put them in a folder, and strode towards the door.


    Dorian followed closely behind.


    As soon as she was out of the conference room, Sydney found that the executives were standing


    outside.


    Luckily, there was a lot of space outside. Otherwise, it would have been crowded.


    "Ms. Raines."


    Seeing Sydneye out, except for Stephen and his people, everyone else was happy, "You finally


    came out. Mr. Flint is waiting for you."


    Someone pointed at Julien.


    Sydney turned to look across and saw the man walking out around the reception desk. She smiled,


    waved at the man, and then stepped toward him.


    After a few steps, Sydney came up to Julien, almost half a meter away from him. She looked up at


    him and said somewhat apologetically, "Sorry to keep you waiting."


    "Don''t say that." Julien shook his head. "Waiting is one of men''s responsibilities."


    Zach had said it took a lot of time for women in love to put on makeup, shop, eat, and so on, so


    men should wait patiently.


    Moreover, she was having a business meeting.


    In turn, he believed that if he were in a meeting, she would also wait.


    Sydney listened to his words, chuckling, "Where did you hear that?"


    "It doesn''t matter. What matters is that I''m willing to wait." Julien took her hand and was about to


    drag her into his arms.


    Feeling the force from the man''s hand, Sydney panicked and hastily cried, "Wait."
