Sir, Madam Dispeared Again After Divorce!

Chapter 948 The Date of the Wedding Had Been Decided On

Considering Julien's status, Stephen didn't dare or was qualified to show his anger.

"Since all of us have finished working, let’s leave together, okay?" Although Stephen was asking for Julien and Sydney's permission, he stepped directly into the elevator without waiting for their answer.

The elevator door slowly closed as he came in.

Even if Julien and Sydney wanted to refuse him, it was too late.

Julien's face turned dark.

So did Sydney’s, but she didn't say anything either.

After all, the elevator was exclusive for high-level executives, not only for Sydney, so Stephen had the right to take it.

Well, Sydney chose to bear staying in the same elevator with Stephen.

It was extraordinarily quiet in the elevator. Only breathing and the sound of the elevator running could be heard.

Stephen felt slightly stressed after a while.

But it was not Sydney who put pressure on him.

Although she had been in charge of Skylight Corporation for almost half a year, she was still young. In terms of vibe, she was far inferior to Stephen, a person who had been in business for decades.

Hence, Sydney couldn’t make him stressed. Instead, he could influence her.

There were only three people in the elevator. As Sydney couldn't put pressure on Stephen, Julien was the only one who could affect him.

Thinking about it, Stephen turned his head slightly and looked at Julien, who stood beside Sydney and held her in his arms in a protective posture. Stephen felt that Julien, though still young, was born to be a powerful boss, as Julien could even render him stressed and nervous. Staring at Julien, Stephen felt awkward.

"What are you looking at?" While Stephen was deep in thought, Julien suddenly fixed his eyes on him. His eyes were indifferent and emotionless.

At the sight of his eyes, Stephen gave a cold shiver, and his face turned a bit pale.

However, Stephen quickly calmed down, as he was a sophisticated man anyway. He suppressed his fear and managed a smile. "I’m looking at you and Sydney. The two of you love each other deeply. When I read news about you online, I really envied you."

"Genuine love should be envied," Julien withdrew his gaze and replied.

Sydney curled her lips, without uttering a word.

Stephen lowered his eyes. "Yes. Mr. Flint, I’m Sydney’s elder. Her father and I were friends for many years. Now that her father passed away, I should take care of her as her elder."

“What do you intend to say?" Julien frowned his brows.

Sydney looked at Stephen with undisguised mockery. Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

‘Stephen is really funny. When he was fighting for power and interests, he wished I would die so that there was a possibility for him to grab my things.

‘At ordinary times, he is impolite to me. He has never respected me as his friend’s daughter, let alone viewed me as the president.

‘If he hadn't made contributions to Skylight Corporation and hadn't been old, I wouldn't tolerate him treating me this way. I would definitely let him know how to respect me.’

Now, because of Julien, Stephen seemed to have forgotten how he usually treated Sydney. He shamelessly pretended to be her kind and caring elder.

If Sydney hadn't known that he was pretending to be so, maybe she would really have been tricked by him.

After all, his acting skills were pretty good.

Stephen noticed that Sydney was ridiculing his hypocrisy at this moment. He squeezed the palm of his hand secretly, pretended that he hadn't detected anything, and continued to talk to Julien with a smile. "You and Sydney have gotten back together and everyone knows that you love each other. I wonder when you plan to get married. Or do you have any idea of getting married?"

Hearing these words, Sydney narrowed her eyes. She stared at Stephen with ridicule and doubt.

‘Why does this old scoundrel ask this?’ Sydney thought.

"Getting married?" Julien said with a smile.

Stephen nodded. "Yeah. Since you are together, some things should be taken into consideration, right?"

Julien stared down at Sydney and replied, "Mr. Dayton, this is my business. I have the idea of marrying Sydney, and I’ve already decided on the date for the wedding. I’ll send you an invitation then."

The smile froze on Stephen's lips.

He just asked tentatively, but he didn't expect that Julien intended to marry Sydney and that Julien had even decided on the date.

At this second, Stephen got fretful because it would not be beneficial to him if Julien and Sydney got married.

Stephen longed to get Skylight Corporation. Even when Julien and Sydney were boyfriend and girlfriend, Stephen’s chance of success was slim.

If they got married, it would be impossible for Stephen to achieve his aim.

‘If Sydney gives Skylight Corporation to Julien and incorporates it into Flint Corporation on the spur of the moment after their wedding, I can’t get anything then.’

At the thought of it, Stephen became intensely anxious.

Hearing Julien’s reply, Sydney felt very surprised.

She looked at Julien with wide eyes. She was asking him when he had decided on the date for their wedding.

Julien didn't answer but just smiled at her. Then he quickly returned to his usual indifference. He looked expressionlessly at Stephen, who was in thought with his head lowered. A cold expression flickered across Julien’s face. "Mr. Dayton, when you heard that I planned to marry Leaf, why didn't you speak? Wasn't it what you asked? After I answered you, you fell silent. You didn’t even give a smile. Well, do you not want me to marry Leaf?"

Stephen got frightened, and cold sweat appeared on his back. His heart beat so fast that it was about to jump out of his throat. He immediately shook his head and replied, "No, no. I didn't think

that way. I’m Sydney's elder and her father's friend. I also regard her as my daughter. How can I not want you to get married? I'm very happy when I know that you are going to tie the knot.”

Stephen forced himself to say these good words.

He couldn't admit that he didn't hope they would get married, because their marriage wouldn't benefit him at all.

But Stephen couldn't let Julien learn about his thoughts.

Otherwise, Julien would definitely teach him a lesson.

So, Stephen could only say these pious words. Even if Sydney were rolling her eyes at him, he had to bear it.

"It's great that you're happy with the wedding of Sydney and me. I’ll send the invitation to you then. Come and attend our wedding," Julien said while holding Sydney's shoulder.

Stephen's smile became stiffer. "Certainly! I’ll come. I’ll come."

"Okay." Julien looked nonchalantly at him. "You're really a kind elder. You care much about Leaf. Don't worry. Whether it is before or after our wedding, I’ll definitely treat Leaf considerately and make her happy forever."

‘I would rather you make her suffer than treat her well!’ Stephen thought to himself with intense spite.

But he couldn't show any spite on his face. Instead, he must respond with a smile, "Well, since you said these words, I can rest assured. Sydney is a poor girl. You must be good to her."

Stephen took a glance at Sydney and sighed again, as if he had taken pity on her.

Looking at his fake kind expression, Sydney only felt disgusted and furious.
