Chapter 12 Everyone Has Their Secrets
The next day, Julien sat at his desk, which had a divorce certificate on it.
He looked at it for a while and threw it into the trash can.
At that moment, Zach came forward and said respectfully, "Sir, Chairman Madden from Trison Corporation is on the line.
Lyra's father?
Julien composed himself and picked up the landline." Uncle Brandon."
The other party was a middle-aged man with a hoarse voice. "Julien, has Lyra been behaving at your place the last few days? I haven't had time to visit her recently, and it’s always my wife who goes over to relieve her boredom. I'm afraid she’ll complain."
Julien's voice was calm. "Don't worry, Uncle. Lyra is recovering well these days. My mother often accompanies her."
"Oh, that's good." Brandon probed, "I heard some rumors that Lyra's car accident six years ago had something to do with your ex-wife. Lyra’s mother went to see her yesterday and asked a few questions, but Lyra kept avoiding the topic. Julien, do you know what happened?"
The man's expression froze, and he pursed his lips, not speaking up immediately.
"Julien, are you listening?"
After a while, Julien frowned. "That car accident... did have something to do with Sydney."
Brandon spoke earnestly. "As you know, Lyra has been my baby since she was young. The accident six years ago almost caused my wife to break down. The first person Lyra saw when she
woke up was you, and I can see how deep her feelings for you are. As for your ex-wife and Lyra, I believe you should know very well who’s more important."
Julien lowered his eyes. "Yes."
The other party seemed very satisfied. "Julien, I believe you're the most worthy person for Lyra."
Once the phone hung up, Julien pondered for a moment.
After a long time, he called Zach in. "I need you to do something."
Sydney came out of Skylight HQ side-by-side with Cayden.
Luke grinned and hooked an arm around Cayden's shoulder, giving him a thumbs up. "That was a great show. You should've seen the faces on those old coots. They basically went green. Your ideas are the best,
Cayden. Haha!"
Sydney also could not help but smile. "Those people have a lot of objections about me because of the theft of funds six years ago. They naturally won't accept the fact that I've become their new shareholder so easily, but Layden's method is very effective. They have nothing to say.”
She did not ask Cayden how he met her grandfather, nor did she ask him why he knew stuff about Skylight Corporation.
Although Cayden was now a model, everyone had their own secrets.
That was respect.
Her grandfather went through so much effort to get 51 percent of the shares, so she had to use these shares to secure her position in Skylight and do a thorough investigation of the truth six years
ago.
As for the Madden family...
A glint flashed in her eyes. There was no hurry. She would take it step-by-step.
"Darling, now that you're a person of status, you can’t dress sloppily and let others underestimate you anymore. C'mon, let's go buy some clothes and jewelry."
With them, Luke drove them both to a first-class branded store.
It was a paradise for ladies in the upper class as there were extraordinarily expensive items such as clothes, jewelry, and accessories here.
However, the three's good moods were spoiled by a sharp and harsh voice. 1
"Stop right there, you b*tch!" It was a familiar tirade and a familiar voice.
The smile on Sydney’s face instantly disappeared.
Turning around, she saw Velma with her arms crossed, glaring at her.
She stormed up to Sydney and pointed at her nose, cursing, "You b*tch. Not only did you have an affair when you were married, but you even took my son’s money and brought two of your lovers here to shop? You’re disgusting, Sydney Raines!” Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
Layden's expression was dark as he stood in front of Sydney. "Watch your mouth."
Velma rolled her eyes. Her voice was as loud as could be, attracting a large number of people around. " Everyone, come look! This woman here is a disgraceful b*tch. She took my son's hard- earned money and came here to fool around with adulterers! Take a look, everyone. One woman and two men. It's like she's the modern Messalina!"
