Chapter 1049 An Icy Warning
Chapter 1049 An Icy Warning
Zach raised his head slightly and quietly glanced at Mr. McDaniel.
Looking at Mr. McDaniel's frustrated expression, Zach felt great pleasure.
Yes, Zach was happy to see Mr. McDaniel defeated by Julien because Zach didn't like Mr. McDaniel.
Mr. McDaniel was Julien's teacher, so he was arrogant before Julien's assistants.
Behind Julien's back, this old guy bossed Julien's assistants around as if they were his own assistants.
So did this old guy's granddaughter.
But because this old guy was Julien's teacher, Zach couldn't tell Julien about these things.
Julien might still not know that his teacher had been pretending to be kind before him.
In fact, this old man was a snob.
Julien did not pay attention to what Zach was thinking. Noticing Mr. McDaniel's speechlessness, Julien finally softened.
After all, no matter what, he respected Mr. McDaniel, his teacher.
Julien leaned over and poured Mr. McDaniel a cup of tea. "I'm sorry. I was a little too aggressive just now. Please forgive me."
After saying that, Julien pushed the cup over.
Seeing the tea poured by Julien, Mr. McDaniel looked less sullen. He took a sip of the tea, accepting Julien's apology.
However, Mr. McDaniel began to hate Sydney.
In his opinion, Julien was now talking back to him because of that woman. If this continued, Julien might break off relations with him.
'No, I can't let this woman be with Julien. She will bring harm to Julien sooner or later.'
Mr. McDaniel put the cup down and put on an earnest look again. "Julien, you said that your family didn't need a marriage alliance, so you didn't care about your future wife's family background. Then I will not say anything more about it."
Julien sipped his tea and was about to thank Mr. McDaniel for his understanding when Mr. McDaniel continued, "Although you don't care about her family background and ability, what about her character?"
Julien's hand holding the cup paused for a moment before he gazed up at the old man across the table. "What are you trying to say?"
Mr. McDaniel smiled, "It is simple. I still want to say this girl is not good enough for you. I won't say anything about her family and ability, but I don't approve of her character."
Julien's face turned cold. "Mr. McDaniel, aren't you being a bit biased? You haven't even met her. How can you say she has a bad character?"
Zach nodded in agreement, his heart full of mockery.
'Mr. Flint and his grandma don't think there is anything wrong with Ms. Raines' character.
'It's ridiculous that this old man is pointing fingers here.'
Mr. McDaniel, who could see that Julien got upset again because of his words, was annoyed and more convinced that it was all Sydney's fault.
In the past, Julien had almost always obeyed him and never doubted his words.
Now he only just said a few words, but his student disagreed with all of them.
'That woman led him astray.'
Mr. McDaniel took a breath, temporarily suppressing his disgust toward Sydney. He looked at Julien and said in a serious tone, "I have never met her, but I have always heard about her. When I was abroad, I heard that you were going to marry her. I opposed it at that time, but you insisted. How did it turn out? Your relationship broke down, did it?"
Julien did not say anything, lowering his eyelids. No one knew what he was thinking.
Mr. McDaniel felt that Julien's silence was a kind of agreement. Feeling a burst of satisfaction, Mr. McDaniel continued, "Your divorce from her caused a sensation. Only then did I learn that she had forced you to marry her. A girl from a bankrupt family actually threatened the head of a top family. Obviously, this woman is rather scheming. Unexpectedly, only a few months after that, you two got back together."
Then Mr. McDaniel sighed, "She must have done something again, right? Back then, she compelled you to marry her. Later, she pressured you to be with her again. It is not impossible. In short, this woman..."
Julien suddenly raised his head, looking indifferently at Mr. McDaniel, and interrupted, "Mr. McDaniel."
Mr. McDaniel was surprised by his cool look for a moment, blanching.
'He ... he is actually looking at me so coldly because of a bad woman.'
For a while, Mr. McDaniel was so furious that he gasped. He hurriedly put down the cup, leaned forward, and patted his chest, looking like he was about to faint.
Seeing this, Julien changed his face slightly and stood up at once. "Mr. McDaniel."
"Mr. McDaniel." Zach quickly stepped over and supported Mr. McDaniel.
Although Zach disliked this old man, he was Julien's teacher and looked sick now, so Zach could naturally not ignore him.
If Mr. McDaniel died here, Julien and Zach would be in an awkward situation.
Zach helped Mr. McDaniel lean against the back of the sofa. He breathed faster and faster, and his old face was getting paler and paler.
Julien hurriedly walked up, took out a small bottle from Mr. McDaniel's shirt pocket, and poured out two white pills from it.
When Zach saw the pills, he directly pried Mr. McDaniel's mouth open so that Julien could put the pills in. Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.
After Julien stuffed the pills into Mr. McDaniel's mouth, Zach quickly turned around, picked up a glass of water, and fed Mr. McDaniel water to wash down the pills.
Soon, the pills took effect. Mr. McDaniel's breathing gradually became steady, and the color returned to his pale face.
Mr. McDaniel got better, no longer in danger.
Julien and Zach were relieved then.
Zach retreated to his original position, and so did Julien. He sat back down, looked at Mr. McDaniel, and asked with concern, "Mr. McDaniel, how do you feel now? If there is still any discomfort, I will ask Zach to get a doctor."
Mr. McDaniel has now fully recovered, but he was still mad at Julien. He didn't appreciate Julien's concern, glaring at Julien and grunting, "Don't worry. I'm not killed by you yet."
Julien's face was calm. "Mr. McDaniel, I don't think I'm trying to anger you."
"What?" Mr. McDaniel pointed at him, his hands trembling. "You looked at me like that for that woman. You..."
"You said something offensive. Of course, I am unhappy." Julien raised his eyelids slightly.
The implication was that Mr. McDaniel asked for it.
Even though he was Julien's teacher, he couldn't talk about Sydney like that, or Julien would give him attitude.
Realizing the meaning of Julien's words, Mr. McDaniel was once again enraged.
If he hadn't just taken the pills, he would pant again.
