After all, she seldom took the initiative to engage in such intimate actions, and considering Julien's personality, he would surely ask for more.
Now that she had kissed him, if she didn't make a swift exit, he would kiss her back after coming to his senses.
In that case, it wouldn't be a mere peck on the cheek, but a deep kiss on the lips, and he wouldn't let her leave without fulfilling his desires.
This was why she had to seize this opportunity and make a quick escape.
Sydney swiftly opened the car door, got out and closed the door. The whole process was smooth and efficient, taking no more than a minute.
She wasn't a quick-tempered person, so her amazing speed to finish all these actions showed how "terrified" she would be once Julien recovered his senses.
After getting out of the car, Sydney looked inside through the car window.
However, the window was tinted, and she couldn't catch a glimpse of Julien inside.
Nevertheless, she waved to him through the car window and then walked toward Skylight Corporation after going around the rear of the car.
Inside the car, Julien finally realized what had just happened. He touched his kissed cheek and looked at the empty seat beside him. Then he quickly looked out the window and happened to see Sydney walking around to the rear of the car.
Julien knew that she was going back to Skylight Corporation, so he quickly opened the window on his side.
Halfway through, Sydney heard the sound of the car window lowering and instinctively stopped, then turned to look in the direction of the sound. She saw the handsome face of Julien.
"You kissed me and then wanted to run?" Julien spoke in a low and pleasing voice.
Sydney smiled. "What else should I do? Wait for you to pull me back for another kiss, making me unable to get out of the car?"
Her thoughts hit home, and a hint of guilt flashed in Julien's eyes, but it quickly disappeared. He cleared his throat and replied, "I won't."
"Stop it, I know you too well." Crossing her arms, Sydney continued with a smile, "Alright, you should leave now. See you tonight."
With that, she waved goodbye to Julien.
Julien understood that it would be impossible for her to return and kiss the other side of his face, let alone for him to initiate a passionate kiss. With a sigh, he looked somewhat forlorn as he uttered, "See you tonight."
Seeing Julien's obviously dejected appearance, Sydney knew where his disappointment came from. She rolled her eyes and turned to continue walking toward Skylight Corporation.
Julien did not close the window to let Zach drive. He remained in his position, attentively observing Sydney as she made her way towards Skylight Corporation.
It wasn't until she safely entered the building that he rolled up the window and tapped on the partition.
In the driver's seat, Zach heard the sound of the partition being tapped and knew that Julien was signaling for him to leave. He immediately started the car, lowered the partition, and smirked, "Mr. Flint, it took so long for Ms. Raines to get out of the car. You must have talked for a long time inside the car, right?"
When he mentioned "talking," he was subtly hinting at more intimate matters, like kissing.
However, Julien was not in the mood to respond to Zach's teasing. His face turned cold as he glanced at Zach and said, "I'll deduct half of your bonus this month."
After Julien said this, Zach's entire demeanor changed, his face turning pale. "Mr. Flint, why did you make such a decision?"
