Hearing Zach's words, the Old Madam almost died. Although nothing had happened to her, she was greatly shocked and fainted.
Therefore, Zach was willing to accept any punishment.
After all, this was his fault.
Julien looked down at him, pursed his lips, and had no intention of forgiving Zach because he was really angry. There was a cold aura around him.
The mood at the door was subdued. No one spoke. Apart from the shallow breathing, there was no other sound.
Since Julien kept staring at Zach, Zach was so scared that his forehead was full of sweat.
Zach would rather Julien hit him or scold him.
"Julien." Knowing that Zach was scared at this moment, Sydney sighed and pulled Julien's sleeve, preparing to speak for Zach.
Sensing her thoughts, Julien glanced at her. Then he looked at Zach and said coldly, "What did you say to Grandma?"
Hearing his words, Zach breathed a sigh of relief because it meant that Julien wasn't that angry and that he could survive.
'Thank you so much, Ms. Raines. If you didn't say anything to Mr. Flint, he would not let me go so easily now.'
"Mr. Flint, what I said to the Old Madam was that..." Zach looked at Sydney with an apologetic smile on his face.
Sydney knew that Zach didn't want her to hear that, so she smiled, "You can go ahead. I will leave you guys first. And I’ll come out after you finish."
After saying that, she turned around and left them.
She knew that Zach didn't want to tell her about it yesterday, so she was not angry now.
Seeing Sydney leave, Julien didn't pull her back.
'Zach is very decent. Since he deliberately doesn't want Sydney to know that, it
means that what he said to Grandma must have something to do with my health.
'Otherwise, it is impossible for Grandma, who has suffered a lot, to faint.
'Even if Flint Corporation went bankrupt, she would definitely not faint.
'Her only weakness is day den and me.
'Therefore, only when it comes to our lives, Grandma might faint.'
Thinking about it, Julien looked at Zach and narrowed his eyes, "Did you tell Grandma about my heart?"
'Only my heart can threaten my life now.
'So Grandma definitely fainted after knowing that.'
Zach lowered his head, "Yes."
The aura around Julien became colder. He said in a cold voice, "Why did you tell her about it? I have told you to keep it a secret from Grandma and Sydney before. How could you say it directly to Grandma?"
"I'm sorry, Mr. Flint." Zach said, "I had wanted to hide it from the Old Madam. But she sensed that something was wrong because you were drunk after drinking red wine. She must have known that there was something wrong with your body. In addition, she asked me about it at that time. I... I couldn't help but tell her about it. Even if I didn’t do that, she would have investigated it herself. So she will know that sooner or later."
Julien pursed his lips without saying anything.
He was not unreasonable. Hearing Zach's words, he knew that he couldn’t blame it on Zach.
Instead, he should blame it on himself.
He had overestimated his body.
He had never thought that he would get drunk after drinking red wine.
Julien rubbed his forehead, "Since
Sydney put away her phone and nodded.
"Let's go." Julien stretched out his arm.
Sydney smiled, walked over, and took his arm.
This time, they finally went out of the apartment successfully.
Zach drove them to have breakfast first and then drove to Skylight Corporation.
When they arrived at Skylight Corporation, Sydney opened the car door and got off the car.
When she walked to the other side of the car, Julien rolled down the car window and said, "Leaf."
Sydney stopped and turned her head with widened eyes, looking at Julien in astonishment, "What... What did you call me?" "Leaf." Julien said.
Sydney choked up, her eyes full of tears. She said, "How do you know my nickname?
Sydney’s father used to call her Leaf.
Sydney’s father told her that it was her mother who gave her this nickname because her mother liked maple leaves. A year before her mother passed away, her parents took her abroad to see maple leaves in a city famous for it.
At that time, her mother wanted to keep it as a souvenir, so she gave Sydney such a nickname.
At the same time, Sydney's pen name was Maple Leaf.
But since her father died, she had never heard anyone call her Leaf. Everyone called her Syd because they didn't know she had a nickname.
Luke and his mother knew this, but they didn't call her by her nickname because it was meaningful to her, and only her parents could call her Leaf.
Six years had gone by. Sydney didn't expect Julien to call her Leaf.
