She put one hand on her heart and kept fanning her face with the other to cool down her face.
Seeing this scene, Julien asked, "What's wrong with you?"
"I...I'm fine." Sydney stammered and then lowered her head quickly, not daring to look at him.
She thought, "God! What's wrong with me?
Why is my heart beating so fast?
Why is my face so hot?
Calm down quickly!
He just repeated what Luke called me. Why am I so abnormal?
Luke often calls me 'Darling', but I never blush or get nervous. Why did I blush and get nervous when Julien called me 'Darling
Julien knew that Sydney didn't tell the truth. He narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at her, as if he wanted to see her through.
After a while, he seemed to understand something. A flicker of shrewdness crossed his eyes. He leaned forward slightly to come close to her and said softly, "You haven't answered my question. Does Luke still call you 'Darling'?"
When he said the word "Darling", he was very affectionate.
In addition, his tone was so flirtatious that Sydney gasped.
"Stay away from me!" She suddenly stood up, took a few steps forward, and turned her back on him, refusing to turn around.
Seeing her red ears, Julien could imagine that her face must be as red as her ears at this moment.
Sure enough, his words made her abnormal.
Julien propped up his head and said jokingly, "Tell him not to call you 'Darling' anymore."
"Why?" Sydney rubbed her face, took a deep breath to calm down, and turned around.
Julien locked eyes with her, "Because I don't like it."
Sydney pursed her lips, "It's none of your business. Why don't you allow Luke to call me 'Darling'?" "It is too intimate. You're not a couple, so he can't call you 'Darling'. Most importantly, I will be jealous. I've put up with it for a long time, and I don't want to put up with it anymore. Sydney, I hope that only I can call you 'Darling'." He looked at her and said seriously.
Sydney looked away, "Don't you think you're too domineering?"
"No, I don't think so. I'm just doing what I think is right.” Julien said with a gentle expression on his face.
Sydney was just about to say something when the door of the office was pushed open. Zach walked in with a laptop in his hand.
Seeing Sydney stand there and Julien sit on the sofa, he stopped and then looked at Julien nervously, ’’Shouldn’t I come in at this time?" 'They seemed to do something just now.
Did I interrupt them?'
Thinking of this, Zach suddenly felt guilty.
Sure enough, seeing Julien’s icy face, Zach twitched his mouth.
He thought, "I'm sorry, Mr. Flint. I won't dare to disturb you anymore!"
"Well. Have you finished watching the surveillance footage?" Julien rubbed his temples and said.
Hearing the words "surveillance footage", Sydney hurriedly sat down on the sofa.
Zach nodded, "Yes. At one o'clock in the afternoon, Lyra drove to the road outside our corporation. After that, she has been sitting in the car. This is an edited piece of surveillance footage."
