Sir, Madam Dispeared Again After Divorce!

Chapter 46 She's the Clown

Jayden turned red with anger. He was just about to tell her about his good points when the phone on the table rang.

It seemed like it was from his brother. Jayden's heart stuttered.

Sydney also caught a glimpse and was one step faster. She answered the call and even put it on speakerphone. "President Flint, are you calling because you know that your brother is missing?"

The other end of the phone was silent for a moment, and then a man's low voice sounded. "Jayden Flint, come down to the south gate in three minutes."

"Three minutes isn't enough." Jayden whined but did not dare to go against Julien. "She lives near the north gate..."

"Two minutes." The man's voice was even more gloomy.

Jayden shook in fright. After hanging up the phone, he slipped his school bag on his shoulder and ran to the door without needing Sydney to chase him out.

When he opened the door, he turned to warn Sydney." You received my gift, so be sure to come to my school to help me on Saturday! If you tell my brother, I’ll tell him that you slept with a pretty boy right after your divorce!"

Sydney was speechless.

Jayden sprinted as fast as he could and ran to the south gate in exactly two minutes.

He saw his brother's luxury car on the side of the road. Julien was sitting in the driver's seat, smoking. His posture was languid as smoke curled between his fingers.

Panting, Jayden got into the passenger seat and fastened his seatbelt.

Julien looked at him coldly. The cold air around him made Jayden lower his head, not daring to speak.

When the car hit the road and started cruising, Julien finally opened his mouth. "Didn't I tell you not to go to her? Are you deaf?”

"I don’t have money on me..."

Julien sneered. "There are several hotels under Flint Corporation. Everyone knows that you’re the Second Young Master of the Flint family."

"My stomach hasn't been feeling well so I went to her to make up for it,” Jayden said stiffly. "Sister- in-law cooks very well. You know that too, right?”

After saying that, he realized that he had addressed her wrongly and immediately corrected himself. "I meant ex-sister-in-law. I know you're divorced, but it's not like I can't even go to her place to eat, right? Besides, she opened the door and cooked for me. I didn't force her."

The man only sneered again, clearly not believing Jayden’s nonsense.

"Julien, Sydney is actually quite good," Jay den spoke carefully.

He was counting on Sydney to go to school and help him, so he thought of saying a few good words for her in front of his brother. Besides, Sydney was indeed quite good.

Sometimes, when judging whether a person was good or not, one could not just listen to other people’s words. Seeing was believing.

Seeing Julien remain silent, Jayden mustered up the courage to continue. "I heard her company isn't doing too well. Why don't you help her? Or you can teach her how to manage the business in your free time. She didn't ask for anything when she divorced you. Her life is pretty tough..."

He also decided not to tell his brother that Sydney used to date someone online. After all, everyone had their past.

"Does your face still hurt?" Julien interrupted him.

Jayden licked the inside of his mouth. "It hurt before, but it stopped hurting after she applied the medicine."

"Apologize to Mom when you go back. Stop playing basketball and study hard." Julien propped his hand on the car window and said with a cold expression," When I was sixteen, Dad handed me a bunch of stuff and I had to join Flint Corporation's upper management to study."

Jayden's eyes dimmed. His lips moved to say something, but Julien spoke before he could, "Or do you want to go abroad tomorrow to study?”

Jayden did not dare to talk back to him. He lowered his head and kept completely silent.

Sydney did not keep Jayden’s words in her heart. She was busy with meetings and had tons of matters to deal with.

When Luke was free to come to Skylight, she called on the group and had a meeting with Luke to discuss and analyze the acquisition of SweetHeart. They finally reached a consensus.

If SweetHeart was properly reorganized, it could become Skylight's right arm. Furthermore, Sydney could afford their purchase price.

However, there were many people who went searching for SweetHeart’s boss to buy the company. The boss was annoyed by all the offers and had not returned after going on a trip last December. He did not answer his phone either, so it was very hard to contact him.

These days, Sydney was busy looking for relations to try and contact SweetHeart’s boss, but to no avail.

She was incredibly frustrated. Then, one day, she was bombarded by calls in the morning. They were all from Jayden asking her when she was coming to his school.

She simply blocked him.

Then, Jayden switched to the school landline instead. His tone was not arrogant at all and even sounded slightly pleading. "I told my brother good things about you when he came to pick me up that night. Can't you help me just once?

"I'm begging you. My life will be over if you don't come."

Sydney was angry yet amused.

He was just a sixteen-year-old boy. His life had just begun, but he felt like the world was gray just because he could not play basketball?

She hung up the phone mercilessly and ignored him. However, when she took a rest after working, she remembered Jayden's humble tone when he called her and felt her heart soften.

She had known Jayden for a long time. Except for his brother, she had never seen him beg another person like this before.

"Boss, are you busy?" Sharon knocked on the open door and walked in. "My grandmother isn't well so I want to take three days' leave to go back and visit her."

Hearing Sharon talk about her family, Sydney remembered Old Madam Flint.

She also broke off contact with Old Madam Flint after she divorced Julien. She wondered if the old woman was in good health.

"Alright, go ahead. You can leave today as well. I’ll grant it.” Sydney said, "If you want, you can stay home for a few more days and just give me your leave of absence request when you come back."

Sharon’s eyes lit up. "Wow, you’re such a good person, Ms. Raines! You're both beautiful and kind- hearted!"

However, she did not rush to leave after her leave was granted and instead said to Sydney, "Ms. Raines, I have a friend whose family is very poor. He works three jobs every day. I want to help him, but I don’t want to hurt his self-esteem. Can you please help?"

"How old is he and what can he do?" Sydney asked. "If he doesn’t know anything, he can just come to Skylight as a security guard. I'll pay him a higher salary.”

Sharon and Luke used to be schoolmates. If Sharon wanted to take care of her friend, Sydney was also willing to help.

"I've made all the arrangements. All you have to do is agree.” Sharon grinned. "Let him be your driver. Just call him if you need a ride. I’ll pay for his salary."

Sydney did indeed need a driver to chauffeur her around occasionally. "Sure. I'll pay his salary. Your income isn't that high, after all."

"It's fine. I have a house." Sharon waved her hand, unconcerned. "Houses in the city can sell for a lot of money. It's enough to pay his salary for a year."

Sydney was stunned and asked, "Is this the only house you have, or...?"

"I have many. I also have a few villas." Sharon rummaged through her memories. "My mom bought them all, but I don’t remember where they are. Do you want to buy a house, Ms. Raines? I can sell you one of my villas at a discount."

Sydney rubbed her forehead in despair.

She had just been upset that Sharon's income was not high, but it turned out that Sharon only came out to experience life. The poor one here was Sydney.

Sydney wanted to go to Jayden's school, so she passed the car keys to Sharon and told her to call her friend over to drive Sydney there.

About fifteen minutes later, Sharon called. "He's here, Ms. Raines. He’s waiting for you downstairs. Pay attention to what you say later and don't let him find out."

"I know."

Sydney packed up and left the company. When she saw her car, she went straight over, pulled open the back door, and went in.

"You're Sharon's friend, right?” Sydney asked while looking up. Just as she was about to tell him where to go, the driver also happened to turn around to look at her. His eyes were narrowed in a smile.Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
