Greta sensed the displeasure in Zach's tone, and her pupils contracted slightly. Then she realized that her reaction was inappropriate, so she hurriedly forced a smile, "No, that's not what I meant."
"What do you mean then?" Zach frowned.
Greta lowered her eyes and explained, "I mean I can't believe Ms. Raines had spoken up for me, even though I offended her last night. I was shocked when I heard that Ms. Raines had made Mr. Flint change his mind. I am not an ungrateful woman. I feel grateful to Ms. Raines, really!"
Greta's explanation made sense, so Zach couldn't refute her. He grunted, "Good. Ms. Sullivan, you can go home now. We will be waiting for your compensation and apology."
Greta nodded, "Okay."
Zach then turned and went into Julien's ward.
As she watched Zach enter the room, Greta showed a grimace. The smile was gone from her face.
Since Greta had plastic surgery done on her face, when her face was twisted, it looked very frightening.
Luckily, Zach didn't see it.
After walking into Julien’s room and seeing Julien and Sydney snuggled up in bed, Zach rolled his eyes secretly.
'What are they doing? They're awake. Why aren't they up but snuggling in bed?' Zach thought to himself, but he didn't dare say anything. He let out a cough and called out, "Mr. Flint, Ms. Raines."
Julien was fine, but Sydney felt embarrassed when she saw Zach come in. She blushed and tried to get out of Julien's arms.
She was awake at that moment, not asleep. When she was asleep, she didn't care about it, but when she was awake, she felt ashamed of lying in Julien’s arms.
Sydney was about to get up.
However, when Julien sensed that Sydney was getting up, he wrapped his arms tighter around her waist. He didn't let her go, "Don't move!"
Sydney glared at him and hissed, "Let go of me.
Julien cast a chill glance at Zach.
Zach immediately straightened his back and put on a serious face. "Ms. Raines, it's okay. You can ignore me!"
Sydney, however, felt even more embarrassed.
'Ignore Zach?
'How is that possible? He's standing right there. I'm not blind. How can I ignore him unless I have no shame?
'How embarrassing it would be if Julien suddenly made a move on me when Zach is here!
'How shameful that would be!'
Watching Sydney's eyes flicker, Julien knew what she was thinking. Then he showed a small smile and got down to business.
Getting down to business would help Sydney relax.
"Is everything taken care of?" Julien asked Zach.
Zach nodded, "Yes. The woman will pay for all our damages and apologize publicly to Ms. Raines."
Julien responded, "OK."
"She didn't agree in the beginning, though," Zach said.
Julien frowned, "What?"
Sydney wasn't surprised, "She's going to have to face people's accusations. Surely she doesn't want to do that."
"Yes." Zach nodded, "And she suspected it was Ms. Raines' idea to get back at her."
"She thought it was my idea to get back at her?" Sydney was amused.
Julien spat, "Who does she think she is that Sydney would bother with?"
Zach shrugged his shoulders, "That was what she thought."
Seeing the nail marks on Zach's arm, Sydney gave a grim look.
From what Greta did to Zach, it was clear that Greta was not a simple bitch, but an evil woman.
She was a cold-blooded and reckless woman.
Luckily, Sydney wouldn't see her again in the future. Otherwise, she was worried that the woman would mess up her life.
"Go find a nurse to take care of the wound." Julien said to Zach.
Zach responded, "OK." Then he left.
And Julien and Sydney got up and packed their stuff. They were about to leave the hospital.
Julien didn’t go to the company yesterday and had a lot of work to do, so he had to go to the office today.
After all, Flint Corporation was a much bigger company than Skylight.
Sydney tried to persuade him to take a day off, but Julien said there was a billion-dollar project, so she shut up.
She couldn't make him give up that project.
Even if Julien could give it up, the other shareholders wouldn't allow it.
Watching the bandage on Julien's forehead, Sydney worried.
Julien had just left the hospital, and he was going to work. It was not always good when the business got too big.
Skylight had never had a billion-dollar business. Even if Sydney didn't go to work for a few days, the company could function.
But Flint Corporation was different. Julien couldn't be absent for long.
Thinking about it, Sydney sighed, "May I go to the office with you?"
