My Wife Wants a Divorce by Red Little Fruit novel Chapter 315

Julien lowered his eyes. "It's fine. Let’s continue.”

Sydney placed her phone to the side and hummed.

An hour later, the lecture ended.

Sydney closed her notebook and showed a rare smile to Julien. "Thank you, President Flint. I've more or less figured it out. I'll be fine if I go back and sort out the information again later."

"That's good." Julien stood up. "The factory inspection is at 9:00 AM tomorrow. Don't be late." "Okay." Sydney nodded.

At that moment, the door to the conference room opened, and Zach pushed in a food cart with multiple dishes on it. A mouthwatering aroma instantly filled the entire conference room.

Sydney hugged the notebook in her arms." Since you're having lunch now, I won't bother you anymore. I'll leave now."

"Wait." Julien pulled her arm. "Let's have lunch together."

"Huh?" Sydney frowned.

Julien’s eyes flashed for a moment. "You came to Flint Corporation for a meeting. As the boss of Flint Corporation, there’s no reason not to invite you to a meal. It's just a business meal between partners. You won't refuse, right?"

Sydney looked at him, and the corners of her mouth twitched speechlessly.

Did he mean that if she refused this business meal, she did not value their cooperation?

She rubbed her forehead and sat back down. "Fine. I'll take you up on your hospitality.”

Julien’s eyes softened. "There’s no need to be so courteous. I just had someone order a few random dishes. I hope they're to your liking."

After saying that, he also sat down.

Zach served the dishes while secretly rolling his eyes.

'What do you mean you just ordered a few random dishes? They're clearly all Ms.

Raines’ favorite foods.

'President Flint is pitiful. He has to use coercion just to have lunch with Ms.

Raines.’ "Here." Julien handed the cutlery to

Sydney.

Sydney reached out and took it. "Thank you.

"No need. Have a taste." He pointed to the dishes on the conference table and motioned for her to start eating.

Sydney humored him and tried a dish in front of her.

"How is it?" he asked.

Sydney swallowed the food in her mouth and looked at him. When she saw the expectation in his eyes, she nodded. "It's very delicious."

Julien imperceptibly sighed in relief and also took some of the food. "Then, you can eat more."

The dishes were not from a hotel menu. They were all dishes from Sydney's mother's hometown. The hotel chef did not know how to make them, so he specially told the chef to learn. He had been worried the dishes would not be to her liking.

Fortunately, she seemed to be quite satisfied.

When Zach saw the entire process of how Julien went from being tense to slowly relaxing, he shook his head with emotion.

'The cold and powerful President Flint became so careful in front of Ms. Raines.

If the outside world knew about this, their eyeballs would drop out of their sockets.'

During the meal, Julien barely moved his fork and was just watching Sydney eat.

His heart felt quite satisfied when he watched her eat with her cheeks puffed out.

He wanted to give her food many times, but when he thought that she would refuse, he forced himself to hold back.

After the meal, Sydney looked at the time. It was almost 1:00 PM. She told him that she had to leave.

Julien knew that she had to go to the courthouse, so he did not stop her and stood up to say, "I'll walk you downstairs."

Sydney wiped the corners of her mouth and did not refuse.

That was because she knew that even if she did, he would insist anyway.

When the two of them arrived at the parking lot, Sydney took out her car keys and was just about to press the unlock button when a choked voice rang out behind them. "Julien!"

Julien frowned and turned to look.

Sydney also turned around. She raised her brows slightly when she saw Mrs. Madden and Clarice coming.

When Mrs. Madden saw Sydney, her crying stopped and she glared angrily. "Why are you here?"
