My Wife Wants a Divorce by Red Little Fruit novel Chapter 296

As soon as he left, his position would be replaced. If that happened, he would not be able to return to Skylight, nor would he be able to join other companies. He would be finished.

Besides, he had no intention to leave in the first place.

Julien looked at Sydney. "What do you think?”

Although Sydney did not like Stephen, she was even more reluctant to have Julien send his people over. She nodded and said, "Since President Dayton said that he's joking, let's forget about it." "All right." Julien pursed his lips, somewhat disappointed.

He wanted her to agree to let Stephen and the others leave Skylight.

That way, he could send someone over here and have an excuse to come here and find her in the future.

Stephen was greatly relieved when he heard Sydney's words.

Fortunately, she was smart enough not to say something she should not say.

Otherwise, he would be finished.

"President Dayton, are you still going to oppose my decision to delist the company? " Sydney looked at Stephen expressionlessly.

Stephen was reluctant, but when he saw Julien beside her, he had no choice but to change his words. "Of course, not. You can do whatever you want to do." "In that case, I'll spread the word. Is there anything else you need, President Dayton?" She chased him away.

Stephen's lips twitched. "No. You carry on, Sydney. I won't bother you anymore.

Goodbye."

The moment he turned around, the forced smile on his lips disappeared and became distorted.

He thought that this time, he could make Sydney hand over her half of the management right by threatening to leave Skylight.

Unexpectedly, Julien appeared halfway.

It seemed like as long as the cooperation between Sydney and Julien existed, Julien would back her up. In that case, it would be even more difficult for him to deal with this damned girl.

He had to think of a way to make the cooperation between the two fall through.

After Stephen left, the office regained its silence.

Sydney tucked a lock of hair behind her ear and thanked Julien.

Julien looked at her. "You've already thanked me several times today."

"I know, but this is common courtesy. It's something I should do." Sydney sat in her chair.

Even if Julien did not come forward to help her this time, she could still deal with Stephen.

She already decided that if Stephen did not agree to delist the company, she would completely fall out with him. He could leave the company if he wanted to.

At most, she would drastically reduce Skylight's size so that it became a small or medium-sized enterprise.

That way, at least Skylight would still be around. It could develop into a corporation again in the future.

"You don't have to thank me." Julien walked across to her desk and also sat down. "I know the conflict between Stephen and you. You could've used this opportunity to drive him out of Skylight."

Sydney's eyes dimmed. "I know, but it's not necessary."

"Is it because you think it's unnecessary, or because you don't want me to send someone over?" Julien raised his eyes to look at her.

Sydney's lips moved, but she looked away and said nothing.

Julien saw her like this and knew that his guess was right.

She just did not want him to send someone over.

He secretly sighed in his heart and stopped speaking as well.

At that moment, Sydney reached out and picked up the landline on the table to call Sophie. "Prepare the documents for the delisting and send them directly to the relevant departments."

"But President Dayton doesn't agree," Sophiie replied.

Sydney rubbed her temples. "He agreed."

"Really?" "Really.” Sydney nodded.

Sophie laughed. "That's great. I'll get right to it." "Go ahead." Sydney hummed and put down the receiver.

"I'll also contact the relevant departments. When your secretary arrives, she can go through the delisting procedures directly," Julien took out his phone and dialed a number as he spoke.

The corners of Sydney's mouth squeezed into a smile. "Sure."

She had to admit that Julien helped her a lot today.

He stood up and went to the balcony to answer the phone.

Two minutes later, he came back with a gloomy face.

As long as she waited until the evening, she would be able to see hope.

Suddenly, her phone rang.

Sydney looked at it and her face darkened.

Julien also saw this and narrowed his eyes. "Who is it?"

"The police station." Sydney pursed her lips. "Someone online said that they called the police. This is probably it."

Then, she swiped her thumb over the green icon and answered the call.

"Hello, Ms. Raines. We're Port City Public Security. Someone on the Internet reported you for luring a person and causing her to be defiled. Please come to the police station now to cooperate with the investigation," the person on the phone said.

Sydney glanced at Julien, the words, 'See? I guessed it!' written all over her face.

"Sure. I'll come over right now," she answered indifferently.

After the call ended, she put down the phone and stood up.

Julien also got up. "Are you going to the station?"

"Yes. It’ll be good for me to cooperate with the investigation. They won’t find anything from me, and I'll be able to clear my name as well." Sydney picked up her bag.

Julien straightened his cuffs. "I'll go with you."

Sydney wanted to refuse, but when she saw his firm expression, she knew that he would follow even if she told him not to.

Sighing, she lifted her foot and walked toward the door. "Whatever."

Julien smiled and walked beside her.

In the elevator, the two squadrons of bodyguards arranged by Julien arrived.

Julien told them to go directly to the parking lot and stop the reporters there.

When the captain of the bodyguards sent a message saying that they stopped the reporters, Sydney and Julien came out.

As soon as they emerged, the reporters who were stopped by the bodyguards

noticed them.
