My Wife Wants a Divorce by Red Little Fruit

Chapter 1036 Sydney Also Persuaded Luke

When Chaim heard Zach's warning, he gave a cold shudder and replied seriously, "I'm sorry. Please tell Mr. Flint that such a thing will definitely not happen again."

Chaim was not a fool. He knew that he could only do something once.

If he did it again, he would be asking for trouble.

"Okay. It’s good that you know it. I’ll hang up," Zach answered coldly and then hung up.

Afterward, Zach sent Julien a message that Chaim had thanked him.

In Shallow Bay, Julien dried his hair and was about to go to sleep in the room.

Hardly had he taken a step when his phone in the bathrobe pocket rang. He took it out to have a look. After making a reply, he put the phone aside and went on walking into the room.

Julien entered the room and stood by the bed. He stared at Sydney, who was sleeping with pink cheeks. After giving a resigned smile, he bent down, gently squeezed her nose and then whispered, "Honey, you're sleeping so soundly. You think that Chaim helped you, but you don't know that he used you."

"Mhm..." With her nose squeezed, Sydney couldn't breathe. She frowned uncomfortably and moved.

As she was about to wake up, Julien quickly loosened his hold on her nose, patted her on the shoulder lightly, and sent her back to sleep.

Soon, she stopped moving and fell back asleep.

Letting out a low chuckle, he lifted the quilt and lay down. The next second, he pulled Sydney into his arms, turned off the light and shut his eyes.

…

The next day, Sydney was reading documents in the office when she answered a call from Luke.

He asked immediately, "Syd, what's going on?"

"What are you talking about?" She clamped the phone between her ear and shoulder. Hearing Luke’s sudden question, she got confused.

Luke rubbed his cheeks. "The commercial port. When I came to the company this morning, my dad asked me to go to his office. He told me that Julien asked to cooperate with our company on a commercial port. And we will take the lion's share in terms of the profits."

"What?" Sydney’s hand froze with a pen, and she straightened up.

Luke answered, "Yes. It happened this morning. The representatives of Flint Corporation came to our company to inform us about it. When I knew it, I was shocked. Julien even demeans himself by working with us and giving us the majority of the profits. Is he crazy? He is sending money to us."

Listening to Luke’s words, Sydney suddenly recalled that Julien had planned to thank Luke and Chaim last night.

And today, Flint Corporation took the initiative to collaborate with Chase Corporation on the commercial port. What a coincidence!

The commercial port seemed like Julien’s thanks to Luke.

Julien really did what he said, and he was very efficient.

Sydney shook her head and smiled. "Well, Luke, I probably know what's going on."

"You know what’s going on?" Luke was lying lazily in the office chair, with his feet on the desk.

Hearing Sydney’s answer, he immediately put his feet down and sat up straight. "Tell me quickly what's going on. Is Julien out of his mind? He even sends money to my family. Doesn't he always dislike me? Is he crazy to work with me?"

Sydney laughed. "He isn't crazy. The reason why he did it is because of you."

"Because of me?" Luke got startled and frowned in confusion. "Does it have anything to do with me?"

"I've already told him about the intercepted parts." Sydney didn't answer his question, but said this first.

Luke became stunned. "What? You’ve told him about the intercepted parts? You..."

"Don't worry. I'm fine. He was indeed angry when he knew that I hid such a serious matter from him and didn't ask him for help. But we had a talk later, and I told him how you and Mr. Houston had analyzed the matter for me. Julien was very grateful that you and Mr. Houston had persuaded me, and he wanted to thank you," Sydney replied with a smile.

"Thank us?" Luke queried.

"Yes," Sydney responded.

Luke fell silent. He seemed to understand everything and gave a snort. "The commercial port is his thanks, isn’t it?"

"Yes. I guess so." Sydney nodded.

Luke pressed his lips. "Who wants his thanks? I hope you can be happy, so I told you it, not for anything else. He doesn't have to..."

"Well, Luke." Sydney gave a sigh and interrupted him. "Do you not want the cooperation?"

"I can't get paid for nothing. Why do I want the cooperation?" Luke said and then curled his lip.

Sydney shook her head, feeling amused. "Who says you get paid for nothing? You get paid for your persuasion on me. Since you analyzed the matter for me, Julien didn’t need to do so. And you helped me understand my current situation. Otherwise, I’ll become a conceited person in the future. These are your contributions, and you should accept the cooperation offered by Julien. I hear that your company urgently needs a commercial port so that you can export your goods, but you haven’t found a suitable one. Even if there is a good one, you can't obtain profits as expected. Now that Julien has taken the initiative to provide you with an appropriate one, why don't you accept it?"

Luke opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.

Sydney persuaded him again. "Yesterday you persuaded me to rely on Julien since he is powerful. Now I also persuade you to make money if you have the opportunity. Why don't you accept the commercial port?

“Moreover, Julien believed that your persuasion did him a favor. If you don't accept it, he will give you something else. Why do you want to decline the commercial port? If you accept it, Julien repays your favor, and you won't have to worry that Julien will give you something else. It’s perfect!”

Luke laughed, "Sure enough, I persuaded you yesterday, and you persuade me today. You’re right. Okay, I'll accept the commercial port, but I won't thank Julien. Tell it to him."

Then Luke hung up.Belonging to NôvelDrama.Org.

When Sydney looked at the phone screen that jumped back to the main menu, she couldn't help shaking her head amusedly.

‘Well, both Julien and Luke are arrogant.’

Sydney rubbed her brows, tapped WhatsApp and sent Julien a message. [Is the cooperation with Chase Corporation on the commercial port your thanks?]

After sending it, Sydney put down her phone, not expecting Julien to make a quick reply.

After all, the New Year was coming, and all the companies had to carry out an annual stock.

Since Flint Corporation was a large and successful enterprise, its leaders and staff members were very busy these days.

So, Julien was unlikely to give a quick response.

Unexpectedly, the moment Sydney placed down her phone, it dinged, as Julien invited her to have a video call.

Sydney raised her eyebrows.

‘Well, I thought he was busy, but he is free. He gives so quick a response and even invites me to have a video call.’

Sydney smiled, picked up her phone, and accepted his video call invitation. The next second, Julien’s handsome face appeared on the screen.

His background was exactly his office.

"You're not busy, are you?" Sydney took a sip of coffee and asked Julien in the video with a smile.

Julien shook his head. "Zach worked overtime last night and handled a lot of things, so I'm not very busy."

"I see." Sydney nodded and then squinted at him. "What a considerate boss you are by asking Zach to work overtime!"
