Chapter 836 Is It My Retribution?


    Sean was so anxious that she grabbed Sydney''s hand.


    Seeing Sean''s pale face and skinny hand, Sydney sighed slightly and patted the back of Sean''s


    hand with the other hand. "Calm down. I won''t fire you. You''re pregnant and not well. If you continue


    to work here, it will be bad for your health. Thus, you''d better have a vacation. You cane back


    to work after you take a rest at home and recover."


    "I understand your meaning, but there is no need for me to take a vacation." Sean shook her head.


    "I will go to the hospital to take an abortion in a few days, so I will be able toe back to work


    soon and don''t need any vacation."


    "What?" Sydney''s expression changed. "Are you really going to take an abortion?"


    ''It''s not surprising that Ms. Raines knows that I will take an abortion.


    ''After all, Finn has told Ms. Raines that I''m pregnant. It''s natural he has also told Ms. Raines that I


    consulted the abortion in the hospital after he knew about that.''


    "I will take an abortion!" Sean nodded. Her eyes were filled with bitterness. "Anyway, the baby


    shouldn''t have existed in the world. Also, his father still doesn''t know his existence. Thus, I can take


    an abortion and get everything back on track. Then I will forget what has happened between me


    and his father."


    Sydney stared at Sean. After a while, Sydney asked, "Is Luke the baby''s father?"


    Sean was shocked. She looked at Sydney in surprise and couldn''t believe that Sydney even knew


    that Luke was the baby''s father.


    Seeing Sean''s reaction, Sydney sighed. "As expected, I guessed right. Luke is the baby''s father.


    You have had feelings for him all the time, so it''s impossible for you to ept other men. Also, no


    other men have shown up around you. Thus, Luke is the baby''s father, right? When did Luke and


    you...?"


    Sydney was too embarrassed to continue.


    But Sean knew what Sydney wanted to ask.


    Sean lowered her head slightly. Her face was filled with embarrassment. "Last time, when Mr.


    Chase left your office angrily, you were worried about him and asked me to follow him in case he


    hurt himself."


    Hearing that, Sydney recalled it immediately.


    ''That time, Luke expressed his feelings to me.


    ''I refused him and seriously said that I had no feelings for him. I told him that I just regarded him as


    my friend and wouldn''t be with him.


    ''Thus, he was sad when he left my office.

    ''I was worried that he would hurt himself, but I couldn''t follow him. After all, I had just refused him. If


    I followed him and said that I was worried about him, he might mistakenly believe that I had feelings


    for him.


    ''Thus, I asked Sean to follow him and keep an eye on him in case he hurt himself.


    ''After all, Sean was his previous secretary. Besides, she was his alumna and had a good


    rtionship with him all the time. Thus, I thought that she was the most suitable person to keep an


    eye on him.


    ''However, after she left with him that day, she didn''te back until the next day. The next day, I


    found that she walked strangely.


    ''But I didn''t think much about it. It seems that I ignored many things at that time.''


    Sydney regretted it and massaged her temples. She felt upset about her carelessness.


    "It turns out that it happened on that day." Sydneypressed her lips. "So the atmosphere


    between Luke and you has be strange since that day. Before that day, when you got along


    with each other, you were normal friends. Luke''s attitude towards you has changed and be


    terrible since that day. Also, your attitude has beplicated when you mention him since that


    day."


    "You''re right. It''s all because I slept with Mr. Chase that night." Sean''s face was filled with


    bitterness."


    "After Mr. Chase left Skylight Corporation that day, he went to drink. I asked him not to drink so


    much, but he didn''t listen to me. I could do nothing but drink with him. I nned to take him home


    after he was drunk. To my surprise, after he was drunk, he mistook me for you and pulled me..."


    Sean looked up at Sydney.


    Sydney felt embarrassed by Sean''s gaze.


    ''It''s too embarrassing.


    ''ording to Sean''s words, Luke mistook her for me and forced her to sleep with him.


    ''It means that Sean became my substitute and was raped by Luke...''


    Thinking of that, Sydney felt extremely guilty. When she looked at Sean, her gaze was filled with


    self-usation. "I''m sorry. I..."


    "Ms. Raines, I know what you want to say." Sean shook her head slightly and smiled at Sydney. "It


    has nothing to do with you. It''s not your fault."


    "No. It''s my fault." Sydney rubbed her face guiltily. "If I hadn''t asked you to follow Luke, you wouldn''t


    have been raped by Luke..."


    "I was voluntary." Sean interrupted Sydney.


    Sydney felt surprised. "Voluntary?"


    Sean nodded. "You know that I like Mr. Chase. Although he mistook me for you and pulled me into


    the hotel, I didn''t struggle and chose to ept it. I like him, so I didn''t refuse him that day. I knew


    that I wouldn''t have another chance to be with him if I refused. Besides, I also drank some wine with


    him. Although I wasn''t drunk, I exposed the darkest side of myself."


    Sydney looked at Sean and understood something.


    Seanughed at herself and looked at Sydney. "You know what? When Mr. Chase pulled me, I


    didn''t intend to push him away. On the contrary, I thought that he would be responsible for me and


    be with me if I slept with him. Although he didn''t love me, I would be able to move him as long as he


    was with me. Thus, I slept with him. However, after he woke up, he was reluctant to be responsible


    for me and hated my guts."


    When Sean mentioned it, her eyes turned red.


    She wiped the corners of her eyes with her wrists and forced a smile. "Is it my retribution? Do I


    deserve it?"


    Sydney opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but she didn''t say anything in the end.


    It was because she didn''t know how to evaluate it.


    ''Originally, I thought that I was the culprit who caused Sean to get hurt. After all, it was me who


    asked Sean to follow Luke, and thus Luke forced Sean to sleep with him.


    ''However, after I heard Sean''s words, I knew that my mistake wasn''t that serious. It was Sean who


    caused the situation.


    ''After all, Sean said that she could push Luke away to avoid sleeping with him, but she didn''t intend


    to do so at all and exposed the darkest side of her.


    ''She schemed against Luke indeed. She thought that she would be with him after she slept with


    him, but he was reluctant to be responsible for her as she expected.


    ''Thus, she deserves it.


    ''But I can''t say so in front of her.''


    Sean didn''t care that Sydney kept silent. Sean took a sip of milk and added as if she wanted to give


    full vent to the depression that she had in mind these days.


    "Mr. Chase bes cold towards me and hates me because he knows that I schemed against him


    and deliberately didn''t push him away. After all, he was drunk, but I wasn''t. I had a clear mind."
