Chapter 1030 I Didn't Turn to Others

At his words, Sydney kept silent for a while. "Perhaps I get into a dead end. I heard too many such words in the past. Though I seldom hear them now, they’ve traumatized me, and I can't help agonizing over them." Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

"Don't think about them anymore." Julien caressed her hair lightly.

Sydney nodded. "I won't. You've analyzed why those people said those words. If I still take their words to heart, I’ll really die in the dead end."

"Don't say anything related to ‘die’." Julien frowned and covered her lips with displeasure.

Sydney pushed his hand away with a laugh. "Why are you so serious? Didn't I just say ‘die’? Look at your serious face. You seem as if I said something so terrible that the world was going to end."

“‘Die’ is an unlucky word," Julien said in an annoyed voice. "It’s unlucky. I hope both of us are safe and sound."

Julien was truly shocked by that cliff fall because he almost lost her that time.

He didn't want her to experience anything life-threatening.

Otherwise, he didn't know what he would do.

"Okay, okay, okay, I won't say anything related to that." Looking at his furrowed eyebrows, Sydney knew that he minded the topic of death a lot.

So, she changed the topic.

Sure enough, Julien unfolded his furrowed eyebrows when Sydney didn’t talk about death again.

"It’s good to turn a deaf ear to others’ words. Only in this way can we live our own lives without pressure and burden, and we won’t be influenced by them. You must know a life affected by others will not make us happy, but only please others." He hugged her tightly again and lowered his head to kiss her hair while stroking her soft hair.

Leaning against his arms, she listened to him carefully though she made no reply.

After speaking for a while, Julien stopped fondling her hair and looked down at her. "When you ignore others’ opinions of you, you won't feel embarrassed to turn to me, will you?

“Well, I know that you are probably still unwilling to ask me for help. After all, you still want to solve problems independently, but Leaf, do you think that you are able to handle problems on your own now?"

Sydney looked up at his handsome face, and what Chaim and Luke said sprang to her mind. "I know... I’m not able now."

She didn't know much about how to win in the business since she was a green hand anyway.

Furthermore, she had neither power nor a wide network of contacts.

She didn't have anything to help her win in the business. How could she address problems independently?

Although she didn't want to admit it, it was the truth.

She was indeed in such a plight now. Despite being the president of a company, her company and identity didn't permit her to be powerful, let alone do business with top enterprises.

As she admitted knowingly that she was indeed incapable of handling problems, Julien raised his eyebrows with noticeable surprise.

Sydney noticed it and pouted her mouth unhappily. "Huh? Are you very surprised that I admit it?"

Julien raised his chin. "Yes. I'm afraid you probably don't know you are actually a very emulous person. And you have high self-esteem. I thought even if I said that, you wouldn't admit it. I didn't expect you..."

Sydney gave a snort, "No matter how emulous I am, I have to accept the reality that I’m not that able."

Julien smiled. "Since you know it, why didn't you tell me anything? Why didn't you turn to me? I understand your thoughts, and I support you in becoming independent and strong. But the premise is that you are powerful and influential enough. Only in this way can you address problems without relying on me, but you aren’t so now. Hence, if you want to solve the matter without telling me, you are trying to be emulous, and being emulous will often bring about many serious consequences, you know?"

Sydney lowered her eyes. "I know. If I can't solve the problem, I’ll only make things worse and insurmountable."

Chaim and Luke had told it to her.

When thinking about it later, she realized that it was indeed the case.

Therefore, she did not hesitate to admit it at the moment.

When Julien found that she was thinking so clearly, a look of surprise flashed across his face again, but it disappeared soon.

In his opinion, since she could be aware of her powerlessness and weakness, it was no wonder that she realized her stubbornness would only complicate and exacerbate the problem.

This was good.

And she would be receptive to his following words.

"Why didn't you tell me anything since you knew it?" Julien pretended to be grim. "You would rather seek Luke’s help than turn to me. Do you know how I felt during the day? I even thought you didn't regard me as your lover. In your heart, I was not even as important as Luke. I was not as close to you as the outsider, Luke. Do you know how sad I was then? "

"No. This is not the case." Sydney shook her head at once. "I didn't ask Luke for help. From beginning to end, I’ve never thought about asking him to help me deal with the matter."

Hearing her words, Julien got stunned. "You've never thought about asking Luke to help you deal with the matter?”

"Yes," Sydney replied.

"How did he know about the part incident?" Julien queried.

"Luke is the nominal director of Skylight Corporation, and he contributed to the cooperation between my company and ZX, so our people informed him that the parts were intercepted,” Sydney explained while staring at Julien's dark face.

Julien nodded understandingly. ‘It turned out to be so.’

Julien didn't know about it before.

"Did you really not ask Luke for help?" Julien asked sullenly and then pressed his lips.

Sydney nodded. "Of course. It was Luke who came to Skylight Corporation to meet me and talk about the matter. He asked me if there was any way to solve it. At that time, I didn't figure out a

solution, and then he gave me a suggestion."

"What’s the suggestion?" Julien narrowed his eyes.

Sydney nuzzled against his chest. "The suggestion is that I take out a loan from a bank by mortgaging something valuable to solve the problem. I considered it feasible and then contacted Chaim, planning to mortgage my family villa."

"After you and Luke had a meal this afternoon, you went to meet Chaim?" Julien stared at Sydney.

"Yes." Sydney nodded. "Chaim agreed to give me the loan, and it has been transferred to my account half an hour before. I originally planned to give the money to Sean and let her handle the remaining things to avoid the bad influences caused by the lost parts. But I didn’t expect that you would help me get the parts back. Now I have an extra sum of money.”

Sydney laughed while saying these words, who seemed very delighted with the money as if it had been a windfall.
