Chapter 1186 Turn the Tables
After all, she seldom took the initiative to engage in such intimate actions, and considering Julien''s
personality, he would surely ask for more.
Now that she had kissed him, if she didn''t make a swift exit, he would kiss her back aftering to
his senses.
In that case, it wouldn''t be a mere peck on the cheek, but a deep kiss on the lips, and he wouldn''t
let her leave without fulfilling his desires.
This was why she had to seize this opportunity and make a quick escape.
Sydney swiftly opened the car door, got out and closed the door. The whole process was smooth
and efficient, taking no more than a minute.
She wasn''t a quick-tempered person, so her amazing speed to finish all these actions showed how
"terrified" she would be once Julien recovered his senses.
After getting out of the car, Sydney looked inside through the car window.
However, the window was tinted, and she couldn''t catch a glimpse of Julien inside.
Nevertheless, she waved to him through the car window and then walked toward Skylight
Corporation after going around the rear of the car.
Inside the car, Julien finally realized what had just happened. He touched his kissed cheek and
looked at the empty seat beside him. Then he quickly looked out the window and happened to see
Sydney walking around to the rear of the car.
Julien knew that she was going back to Skylight Corporation, so he quickly opened the window on
his side.
Halfway through, Sydney heard the sound of the car window lowering and instinctively stopped,
then turned to look in the direction of the sound. She saw the handsome face of Julien.
"You kissed me and then wanted to run?" Julien spoke in a low and pleasing voice.
Sydney smiled. "What else should I do? Wait for you to pull me back for another kiss, making me
unable to get out of the car?"
Her thoughts hit home, and a hint of guilt shed in Julien''s eyes, but it quickly disappeared. He
cleared his throat and replied, "I won''t."
"Stop it, I know you too well." Crossing her arms, Sydney continued with a smile, "Alright, you
should leave now. See you tonight."
With that, she waved goodbye to Julien.
Julien understood that it would be impossible for her to return and kiss the other side of his face, let
alone for him to initiate a passionate kiss. With a sigh, he looked somewhat forlorn as he uttered,
"See you tonight."
Seeing Julien''s obviously dejected appearance, Sydney knew where his disappointment came from.
She rolled her eyes and turned to continue walking toward Skylight Corporation.
Julien did not close the window to let Zach drive. He remained in his position, attentively observing
Sydney as she made her way towards Skylight Corporation.
It wasn''t until she safely entered the building that he rolled up the window and tapped on the
partition.
In the driver''s seat, Zach heard the sound of the partition being tapped and knew that Julien was
signaling for him to leave. He immediately started the car, lowered the partition, and smirked, "Mr.
Flint, it took so long for Ms. Raines to get out of the car. You must have talked for a long time inside
the car, right?"
When he mentioned "talking," he was subtly hinting at more intimate matters, like kissing.
However, Julien was not in the mood to respond to Zach''s teasing. His face turned cold as he
nced at Zach and said, "I''ll deduct half of your bonus this month."
After Julien said this, Zach''s entire demeanor changed, his face turning pale. "Mr. Flint, why did you
make such a decision?"
Why was his bonus being deducted?
Wasn''t Julien supposed to proactively give him a bonus?
Moments ago, he parked the car and raised the partition, creating a private space for Julien and
Sydney, so as not to disturb their intimacy.
He had already considered everything so thoughtfully and carefully for them. However, Mr. Flint not
only refused to give him a bonus but also considered deducting it. This waspletely unfair!
Zach felt very dissatisfied.
Julien snorted, "You rmended those TV shows and novels to me, iming they would teach
me how to be a romantic and charming man that women can''t resist. I followed your advice, but to
Leaf, those characters seemed insincere and perplexing,cking any real charm. Leaf even
mentioned that without exceptional looks, my gestures and words would disgust her as well. You
nearly led me down the wrong path. I haven''t dismissed you yet, and you''re still expecting a
bonus?"
"Uh..." Zach''s mouth twitched.
He never anticipated that this would be the reason for his bonus deduction. He had assumed it was
due to some other trivial matters.
"Mr. Flint, I must admit that this truly perplexes me," Zach voiced his doubts as he continued to
drive. "How could Ms. Raines find these male protagonists unctuous? I''ve seen numerous female
fans online who adore them, referring to them as their Prince Charming, and none of them have
labeled them as unctuous. That''s why I assumed Ms. Raines might also appreciate them, and I
rmended those works to you. But I never anticipated that Ms. Raines would harbor such a
dislike towards them."
Zach still remained unaware that the female fans who adored these male protagonists in movies
and TV dramas were predominantly young, mostly teenagers or in their early twenties. Their level of
emotional maturity and social experience was somewhat limited, which exined their fondness for
these characters without perceiving any ws in them.
However, Sydney was already a mature woman of 27 years old, with higher expectations and
understanding of men, so she felt that the behavior of these male characters was unctuous.
Obviously, Zach regarded Sydney as a little girl and thought that as long as she was female, she
might adore those characters. He overlooked the fact that not all women shared the same
preferences.

Julien didn''t know what Zach was thinking. As he listened to his exnation, he found it to be mere
sophistry and remained unmoved by it.
"What do you know about love? You haven''t even been in a rtionship. It''s incredibly audacious of
you to offer me advice," Julien remarked, casting a contemptuous nce at Zach.
Zach felt as if his heart had been pierced several times, causing immense pain that almost took his
breath away. His hand gripping the steering wheel trembled slightly.
Mr. Flint was really ruthless this time.
It was true that he had never been in a rtionship and was currently single. However, this didn''t
mean he was incapable of understanding love or teaching others about it.
Despitecking personal experience, he had acquired a wealth of theoretical knowledge on the
subject.
Furthermore, when he initially suggested teaching Mr. Flint about love, Mr. Flint didn''t dismiss his
approach as ineffective. Instead, he listened attentively and even followed his advice.
Now, in the face of an unfavorable oue, Mr. Flint unjustly ced the me solely on him, which
seemed entirely unreasonable.
He didn''t force Mr. Flint to learn in the first ce. It was Mr. Flint''s own desire to seek guidance in
this area. However, Mr. Flint refused to admit his own mistake.
It was really unreasonable!
Even though Zach grumbled to himself, he didn''t dare utter such words to Mr. Flint, nor did he
disy any discontent on his face. He knew all too well that openly expressing dissatisfaction would
surely result in his banishment to Aldoria forborious tasks.
So he had to suppress his grievances, and he still had to apologize to Mr. Flint.
‘Dealing with a domineering boss is truly unbearable,’ Zachmented to himself.
